I’m not married.  Never been but if I ever, I’m all about the destination weddings.  I mean, I’ve already been planning my imaginary beach wedding for most of my adult life!  Just check out my pinterest, I have a whole board on “My Future Beach Wedding’!  It’ll happen one day damnit, IT WILL!!!!!!!!!!!! #endrantbridewannabezilla hahhaahha

I chose this simple yet elegant and sexy wedding dress for the perfect beach wedding.  (ahem mine will be in Varadero, Cuba in case you’re wondering)  Who says you can’t wear a fancy elegant full length wedding dress on the sandy beach?  I’d skip all jewlery except maybe some diamond stud earrings.  No necklace, no bracelets, nada.  Afterall, you don’t want tan lines on your neck or wrists.  Plus, it’ll probably be so hot that any jewlery would probably just irritate the crap out of me (or you.)  The best part – no need for 4+ inch heels that’ll dig into and hurt your feet.  Barefoot or with bling’ed out flip flops, either will work with this strapless beauty of a dress.  🙂

For makeup, I would focus more on that sexy JLo glowy bronzey skin.  I’d be careful not to get too tanned or worst, sunburnt before the wedding day so be careful ladies!  Limit the tanning by the pool/beach.  Or wear a hat and sunblock!  That luminous glowy skin can be achieved by using bronzer and a great highlighter.  Paired with a medium smokey eye using neutral color eyeshadows and then topped off with a pinky-nude lipgloss and we are good to go!  For hair, I think loose beachy waves would look best.  But if it’s too hot I would pull the loose curls to the side and go for that messy low side bun or ponytail look.  Casual yet chic and beautiful for my I mean your beach wedding!  😀
