Questions to ask your vendor
What to ask before you book
- 1.Do you handle the beach ceremony permit process, or is that something we coordinate directly with the local authority?
- 2.What's your wind plan — how do you secure arches, draping, and florals in an exposed coastal setting?
- 3.How do you stabilize arch structures and centerpiece arrangements in sand without damaging the beach?
- 4.Is there accessible power at this location, or do you bring generators for lighting, sound, and catering equipment?
- 5.What floral and fabric choices hold up best in coastal humidity and salt air throughout the day?
