Casual Beach Wedding Dresses

You are here: Home / Destination Wedding Ideas / Destination Wedding Attire & Beauty / Casual Beach Wedding Dresses
by Cynthia

Searching for casual beach wedding dresses? You’ve come to the right place. We have searched high and low for the most beautiful dresses we could find for your laid back, simple, beach wedding ceremony and are excited to share them with you.

Obviously I love everything about beach ceremonies. I mean what’s not to love? You’re exchanging vows with the soft, grainy sand beneath your feet and the soft, salty spray of the ocean in the air. There is a fantastic sense of freedom, nature, and romance. But while it may be a casual, scenic, and serene way to exchange vows, it requires a lot of planning and preparation, especially when it comes to selecting a gown.

Here is a collection of our Editor’s picks for the best casual beach wedding dresses that will keep you cool, comfortable, and looking chic.

Casual Beach Wedding Dresses

If you want to keep your look casual and simple, allow your dress to truly be the star of the show by wearing a streamlined dress covered in subtle lace overlay. No jewelry, shoes, or a lot of make-up is worn by a beach goddess bride.

A lightweight lace textured dress will mix the right amount of casual elegance in order to complement the nautical sights and sounds around the ceremony venue.

Looking for a short and casual beach wedding dress that’s effortless yet chic? This lace style with its open back, fitted bodice, and above-the-knee hemline is the perfect blend of casual and glam. Light, breezy, and modern—it’s made for sun-soaked celebrations.

This dress is stunning, isn’t it? It’s made entirely of chiffon so it’s lightweight but elegant. It will move with your body as you walk down the aisle or sway in the ocean’s breeze while standing still. We love that the dress design is easy to wear on most forms because it cinches you just below the bust and drapes over the rest of your body. Now you won’t have to worry about enjoying a few cocktails and a big slice of cake!
