Themes

Depending on where your beach wedding takes place, there are several cake themes you can use such as nautical, seashells, tropical fish, sand castles or tropical flowers.

Colors

Colors will often coordinate with your location and theme, but there are several color options that work well with a beach wedding. White, blue, green and beige reflect the colors of the sea, and fuchsia, turquoise and bright yellow provide a tropical feel or the maritime colors of navy, red and white can be used.

You can select any size or shape of cake you like for a beach wedding. Tiered wedding cakes are most traditional, but cakes shaped as objects like sandals or boats are fun. Individual cupcakes offer another option.
