Florida Vow Renewals, Eloping in Florida, and Florida Beach Weddings on a Budget can include a traditional or beachside reception

Treasure Island, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/25/2022 --Local couples and couples from farther afield look to Florida beach weddings as a budget-friendly alternative to a traditional wedding ceremony, and they can also often be booked much nearer the ceremony date. The outdoor setting is a stress-free backdrop with the west coast of Florida proving a popular choice for those looking rto get sunset portraits over the Gulf of Mexico. Suncoast Weddings are premier wedding planners based on Treasure Island, just 30 minutes drive away from Tampa International airport. Their office is next to the Treasure island clock tower, just moments from some of the most popular beach locations for beach weddings, elopements, and vow renewals. A representative from Suncoast Weddings explained some of the considerations when looking to plan an affordable beach wedding: "Florida beach weddings on a budget are absolutely possible - in fact, the value for money is one of the main reasons more and more couples are choosing a beach wedding or destination wedding instead of a traditional wedding. There are ways to stay within a budget, and local wedding planners can advise how to tailor a dream wedding without overspending. Permits to marry on the beach vary from about $50 to hundreds of dollars, depending on the venue and the size of the wedding party. If you're a couple looking for a bigger wedding with chairs and a reception to follow, then beach wedding packages offer the opportunity to bundle and save. Likewise, locking in a date well in advance with a security deposit protects against future price hikes. Certainly combining a honeymoon with a destination wedding helps to keep the costs down overall. Other tips for maximizing savings include checking out if there are discounts for midweek bookings on reception venues or for off-peak hours. Also, ask if there are discounts for military personnel and first responders. Always check for seasonal promotions where upgrades may be available even if costs remain the same. Budget Friendly Tips - renting props for the beach wedding can save money and also make traveling much easier. Items might include beach wedding chalkboards or signs, parasols (which look great in the wedding album) and fans to keep the guests cool. Silk flowers look perfect in photographs but are much cheaper than fresh blooms. Getting creative with seashore inspired bouquets and boutonnieres not only offers the chance to save money, it's fun and a great way to involve family and friends in the build-up to the big day. We have the experience to help you stretch your budget. The number one tip for staying within a budget is to set a limit and prioritize to stay within it. At Suncoast Weddings, we're pleased to say there will be no surprises with our services, your itemized proposal will be straight forward and transparent - no 'clean-up' fees, no hidden extras ... because it's all about you! Staying on a budget can be difficult when invoices are coming in from many vendors. Another advantage of booking a beach wedding and reception package is that there is one point of contact and one figure on the bottom line. This not only makes tracking the expenses easier, it makes updates easier if, for instance, 3 people extra are attending the ceremony. Linking the wedding and the reception makes it easier to plan ahead with changes in more than one place, like adding extras to the reception buffet for instance at the same time as adding extra chairs for the ceremony."

Whilst detination weddings are popular for couples around the US and particularly the United Kingdom, about 30% of the weddings performed by Suncoast Weddings are for local couples from Florida, who are lucky enough to be near to the pristine beaches year-round.

Permits are required at most public beaches and should be submitted for approval as early as possible in the planning process to make sure that the location and date can be secured. Suncoast Weddings can help with the permit application process and will add the cost of the permit to the personalized proposal, as the cost varies from city to city.

Florida Beach Weddings on a budget may start with a search for cheap beach wedding packages however there are many other outgoings that need to be tallied, like the dress, the travel budget, and certainly the reception. Affordable Florida beach wedding Packages typically take several elements of the ceremony and offer them at a reduced price when compared to building the wedding from scratch. This effectively 'bundles and saves' which offers the best value for money for the services delivered. Planning the wedding and reception together as part of a package helps to keep the costs totaled in one place and easier to track. A popular alternative to a traditional reception is a dinner cruise reception sailing the inland waterways around St Pete Beach, Madeira Beach, and Clearwater. This affords a great view of the dramatic and ever-changing scenery as the wedding party enjoys the reception fare. With a choice of paddleboats and sleek modern boats, couples can choose a package and location which suits their style and budget.

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.
