Answer
Surf's up! Have some fun in the sun with this guide for a beach party that surfer dudes, beach bunnies and the whole family can enjoy. You gotta RESERVE the beach PARTY SPOT and INQUIRE as to the BEACHâS HOURS and know the RULES!!! Get to the beach early and allow plenty of time to set up everything.
Provide them with directions and create a big beach-themed signage to hang around your party area to help guests find their way around. Decorating your beach party is a breeze, since the sun takes care of your lighting, and the sea, sand and shells give you lots of natural atmosphere. You can add to the summery scene with colorful beach towels, and bring lots of beach chairs for your guests to lounge on, plus few colorful umbrellas. Also bring the carry-on folding table and turn the beach towels into tablecloths. Bring trash bags for clean up.
Tie some helium balloons to one of your chairs to help your guests find you â but be sure to tell them what color balloons you're bringing, in case other groups have the same eye-catching idea. Beach pails and shovels make great decorations. Get some crazy beach sunglasses.
If you plan on staying until after sundown, bring some tiki torches to light things up, and warm your guests up, when the sun starts to set. A bonfire, if the beach allows it, caps off the evening in true, beachy style. If youâre staying after dark, you might want to pack a sweatshirt and jeans to keep you warm as the evening cools off. And, of course, you should definitely bring sunglasses, a hat, zinc oxide and lots of sunscreen so you donât have to end up wearing nasty sunburn the day after your beach party.
Playtime:
Go get wet in the ocean, play and surf. Set up volleyball net, split your guests into two teams and have a tournament. If youâre not the sporty type, create a contest to see who can build the most impressive sand castle. And for really creative souls, you can play a version of sand Charades: Split your guests into two teams and have all the participants write down objects on pieces of paper. Each team picks a piece of paper and has to sculpt that object out of sand while their team guesses what it is. Have a limbo contest, horseshoes game, hula-hoops, water squirt guns, and play flashlight tag with glow sticks, and donât forget the beach ball.
Food:
Beach party food should be simple and not spoil in the heat. Cook up hamburgers and hot dogs on a beach grill and have fruits like orange wedges, grapes, and strawberries help keep you hydrated in the sun. And for a sweeter dessert, roast marshmallows on the grill or bonfire to make s'mores.
Non-Alcoholic:
Sun tea, Sunkist soda, lemonade and plenty of waters
Music:
Mix some techno your favorite music. Do you have an ipod? Set it up with a good stereo system. If you donât have one, ask one of your friends who does. Follow the beach rules.
Have Fun!!!!

How do I save money on a beach theme wedding reception?
sboyd_hfcc
My fiancé and I are going to Hawaii for are wedding ceremony. There will be 8 guest. We want to have are reception in Michigan. Im in love with elegance with a touch of Hawaii (without being cheesy) to give our guest a filling of actually being there.
Answer
White or pastel table linens, simple flower arrangements, because tropical flowers are not cheap.
You can buy bags of shells online...just Google "wedding shells" and you'll be surprised how many stores there are. Good for table decor.
A simple cake with tropical flowers, and "luau-ish" food and you're all set.
The leis are a nice idea too. You can do Hawaiian without doing cheesy Hawaiian.
