From setting up a summertime bachelorette party to turning a winter anniversary into a tropical paradise, beach-party decorations set the stage for epic parties both on and off the beach.
Start off strong with beach-themed invitations, and welcome guests with tropical gift bags filled with surf-inspired goodies. Offer personalized beach towels to sit on or hang them over each chair as a way to assign seats at more formal events. Customized seashells also make great place cards, or assign tables according to colored seashells and ocean animals. Cover the space in beach balloons and hang up a tropical garland as a destination photobooth. Add a sandcastle centerpiece for weddings, decorative fish nets, and some vintage beach-party supplies.
