Atlantic City Spring and Summer Timeless Wedding Tips

by Tara Bard, Contributing Writer

Atlantic City brides: Are you looking for a classic wedding theme appropriate for spring and summer weddings at the Jersey Shore? It can be a challenge if you're looking for something fashionable but timeless. Decades later, you'll want to look back on your photographs and remember the event itself rather than that mysterious big butt bow.

Here are some ways to accomplish the task:

Dress for the Weather

Storms move in fast during the spring and summer. Stay classy and keep your dress dry with a waterproof jacket and hat in case of storms.

A spare pair of shoes or sandals is also recommended in case of dampness.

Use the Scenery

If you're having a beach wedding or a reception in an elegant casino ballroom setting, use the scenery to your advantage. Country clubs, casinos and restaurants tend to have timeless design scapes, allowing them to replace linens and decor because it gets worn out--not because they look dated.

Base your floral arrangements and color schemes based on the choices of the interior design experts at your location.

Beach weddings require the basics--beyond that, nature sets the mood. Consider adding just a few accents such as ribbons and flowers to the chairs and podiums.

For wedding photos, the Atlantic City boardwalk has a life of its own--there's no need to move props around and stage things. A bride on the boardwalk draws plenty of attention.

Using a Wacky Theme? Be Obvious!

There's nothing worse than a wacky or adventurous theme done subtly. If you're having a St. Patrick's Day wedding down the shore, you should have more than a few stray shamrocks and flashes of green! Don't forget to 'do it up' to create those memories you want to see in photographs.
