I hear a lot of couples wanting some fresh ideas for centerpieces that reflect beach themes and so I have found some fun and fresh ideas for all!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/jennadanelle.com\/?attachment_id=1598\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1598\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1598\" title=\"FFF collage\" src=\"http:\/\/jennadanelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/FFF-collage3-663x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"663\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"http:\/\/jennadanelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/FFF-collage3-663x1024.jpg 663w, http:\/\/jennadanelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/FFF-collage3-194x300.jpg 194w, http:\/\/jennadanelle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/FFF-collage3.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>1 ~ Take some greens, beach palms, a couple of awesome lanterns, and some sea shells and you have a great centerpiece. Can&#8217;t have candles at your reception site? If it is in the daytime &#8211; no one is going to know the difference &#8211; if not, try these <a href=\"http:\/\/www.qcandles.com\/proddetail.php?prod=candle22\" target=\"_blank\">little gems<\/a>! You can also find good deals on non flame tea lights on amazon.com.<\/p>\n<p>2 ~ One of the things I think of when I think beach is the boardwalk. This of course reminds me for some reason of this awesome treat &#8211; cotton candy! Make it a centerpiece your guest can enjoy later. Customizable to your wedding colors and even more awesome, spin it onto swizzle sticks &#8211; you can even get your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/products\/catalog?q=cotton+candy+machine&amp;oe=utf-8&amp;client=firefox-a&amp;cid=12679029697156395779&amp;os=sellers\" target=\"_blank\">own machine<\/a> to make this anytime you want!

You can also use the same flameless tea lights above to light them with!<\/p>\n<p>4 ~ So this idea is of course a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marthastewartweddings.com\/photogallery\/good-things-for-destination-weddings\" target=\"_blank\">Martha Stewart<\/a> creation &#8211; and it is for seating cards &#8211; but why not adapt this idea and make a centerpiece. You can write thank you notes for your guests, mini love letters or poems, or even some bath salts with a label to double as favors and an awesome fun centerpiece.<\/p>\n<p>5 ~ Baby&#8217;s breath centerpieces are inexpensive and very pretty&#8230; They are light, airy, and perfect for beach theme weddings. These would be easy to duplicate with some items from a local craft store and a good amount of baby&#8217;s breath &#8211; which is very inexpensive.
