For all those little girls who felt that they belonged in the depths of the ocean, here are our ideas to transform your wedding into your own real-life Little Mermaid wedding: fish and prince included!
What better way to represent flowers of the ocean than natural and unique seashells.
Mix and match different shapes of seashells with some pearl branches to make a lovely sea-inspired bouquet.
Intricate designs made by the ocean and the creamy color of most seashells are a perfect complement also to your wedding dress.
Let’s make things really interesting!
Bring aquatic life straight to guests’ tables with a show stopping hanging fishbowl right at the centre of the table.
Accentuate your fishbowl (hanging or not) with pieces of coral, candles, and flowers around it to resemble ocean flora and seaweed.
You can even spray paint coral pieces to get the exact colors you desire!
The Little Mermaid movie brings to mind colors of red like Ariel’s hair and her crustacean friend Sebastian, and blue for the color of the ocean; however, these colors are a little too primary for wedding decor.
Soften up red and blue by using sea foam or teal and coral for your main elements such as linens and plate ware.
We also like the sparkle of mermaid scales that can be subtly added to your nails or shoes.
Determined to blow your friends away with how well you’ve stuck to the theme?
If you are bold enough to do it, do a bright red wig to match Ariel’s hair.
Otherwise, don’t worry we have a few tricks up our sleeve. Style your hair in waves to mimic the traditional mermaid look and match that with a mermaid style dress which is tight from the shoulders to about the bottom of the thigh.
This style can be applied to your bridesmaids if you are in love with another look.
Finish with a starfish in hair of course!
There are more than enough beachside locations to choose from without having to go under the sea!
Take a look at our list of best beach locations, including international ones, especially in Italy.
If sand in your shoes does not sound appealing, go for a venue that has an amazing pool.
