Treasure Island, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/04/2018 -- Modern weddings have thrown the traditional rule book away. Couples increasingly are waiting longer to get married and often pay for the wedding themselves. A popular trend is to combine the wedding and the honeymoon together, sometimes known as a 'weddingmoon'. Although some couples choose to travel alone to get married, or to elope in Florida, family and friends often want to attend the destination wedding and make a holiday out of the event, too. This sets the stage for quality family time together. One good, practical solution to budgeting and making the most of time together is to rent rooms in one location which can also double as the venue for the beach wedding in Florida. Beach house weddings offer the capability to stay together and celebrate together. Suncoast Weddings feature a beach house on Treasure Island on the west coast of Florida which has 5 individual vacation units. This allows up to 22 people to stay for a few days with individual family units as well as communal areas to gather. The backyard is big enough to host a beach wedding reception for 100 people and space can be decorated with suspended lights, tents, and can be set up with a DJ station, cake cutting area and top table. The ceremony can be set up just steps from the backyard so the aisle effectively starts as the bride walks down the spiral staircase from the 3rd-floor master suite. Guests are then free to return to the beach house property after the ceremony while the wedding photographer gets the romantic portraits of the happy couple. The beach house is especially attractive to brides who live in Florida as the typical stay at the beach house is between 2 and 4 nights, although it can be rented for longer.

For those looking for color or theme inspiration, Suncoast Weddings has thousands of pins on Pinterest and beach wedding themes have developed over the years to include boho weddings, rustic weddings, starfish themed, subtle colors, bright colors, and everything in between. Couples can choose an existing 'look' or a new color scheme and decor can be tailored, unique to that couple on that day. Inspiration from the seashore is popular, adding starfish to the bouquet for instance, or using a seashell to carry the rings to the arch. The unity sand ceremony during the wedding service blends the sand from each person into a keepsake bottle. Shells are used to pour the sand and the significance is that once the sand is blended, it can never be separated again. If colored sands are used, the bottle has layers of sand with the colors stacked. If children are included in the ceremony, having a shell with their own color of sand is a good way to let them participate. Another popular add-on to the wedding is the blessing stone ceremony, each guest throws a stone into the Gulf of Mexico as they make a wish for the couple.

Treasure Island Weddings, St Pete Beach weddings, Siesta Key weddings, and Clearwater beach weddings boast spectacular sunset views over the Gulf of Mexico, perfect for couples who want sunset wedding day portraits. Florida beach weddings and reception packages can be purchased which include the ceremony and also the party to follow. This may include items such as a DJ, a custom made cake, a coordinator for the wedding and a professional beach wedding photographer.
