Sand between your toes, breeze in your hair, the one you love by your side… a bohemian beach wedding sounds divine, don’t you think? Get wedding-day ready with our style guide – it’s all you need for the perfect destination wedding, oceanside.
The destination
Close to home: The Whitsundays – come on, where else can you find such picturesque shores? Add to that a sense of laid-back luxe at any of the resorts on tap, and your destination wedding is looking very well sorted.
Crossing the oceans: Any number of Asian Islands will do, but we’re seriously craving the white-sand beaches of Bali. With an ambient mix of party pleasure and hedonist indulgence, it’s the ideal combo for your big day.
The gown
Pick a gown that’s floaty and flowing – don’t go for gowns with too much fuss! Instead, choose natural fabrics and soft tones, a low-key design and plenty of romance.

Hair and Beauty
Simple is the word of the day, so think flowing tresses with a natural wave, light make up and a megawatt smile.
Real Bride Inspo: Tobey, who tied the knot in Rarotonga.
Celebrity Inspo: Blake Lively – red carpet ready, but effortlessly so.
Accessories
Keep it simple, keep it sweet. Whether you draw inspiration from glam gold or bountiful blooms, you don’t want the look to be overpowering.
Natural tones: A flower crown is the boho babe’s bestie. Real bride Kate pulls this look off so well!
Glam it up: We’re in love with Shut The Front Door’s beach-ready headpieces – dainty, with an almost vintage feel that lends itself perfectly to a bohemian beach wedding.
