Beach Party Inspirations

The beach is my happy place!  There's nothing better than the warm sun on my skin, a light tropical breeze, the sound of waves crashing against the shore, the smell of saltwater and the sound of constant giggles from my kids while they play in the sand or water.   Do you have a favorite part of the beach?

We are lucky enough to be going to the beach very soon with my family!  My kids are thrilled and the countdown has begun.  My mind has been focused on the beach, this week.  So, I gathered some of my favorite beach party pictures for a little inspiration!

A beautiful beach party tablescape ideas from The Tablescaper.

Gorgeous seashell wreath from Martha Stewart.  It would look great on the front door or as a backdrop for a dessert table.

I love these napkins wrapped with twine and a lifesaver from the Princess and the Frog Blog.  What an inexpensive, cute and yummy way to decorate napkins for a beach party.  We always put mints in our guest bathroon for guests when we're hosting a dinner party.  But, here your guests already have their after-dinner mint!

What a lovely sunset beach dinner party from Toast.

These adorable cupcake toppers are from the wonderfully talented Rebekah at A Blissful Nest , seen on Amy Atlas Blog.

This candle from Better Homes and Gardens would make a great centerpiece for any beach themed table

A clever message in a bottle placecard from Martha Stewart.

As a child, I spent many afternoons on the beach looking for sand dollars.  They were my favorite.  I just love these beautiful cookies made by Bees Knees Creative for Frog Prince Paperie.

This romantic beach tablesetting found on Mackenzie Horan would be great for a special occasion.  And these dreamy cupcakes found on Gathering of the Vibes would be a perfect end to a beach themed dinner.
