Are you looking for beach maternity wedding dresses as you plan your destination wedding? Well ... you are in luck!

There are plenty of options today for wedding dresses that are perfect for a beach wedding ... and a beach wedding can be a perfect solution for a maternity bride!

All you need to do is make the right choice depending on where your ceremony will be.

One big advantage of weddings abroad is the price of beach maternity wedding dresses!

As they are usually informal and lightweight they are often much cheaper than regular wedding dresses.

Top tips for choosing beach maternity wedding dresses

Are you planning to get married on a beach itself, or near the beach - in the garden or chapel of your hotel perhaps?

Let the location of your beach wedding influence the style of beach wedding dress you choose. The key to success is finding the most appropriate, comfortable outfit to celebrate your big day in.

Do you fancy a very relaxed, casual look for your maternity beach wedding? Or are you hoping to find something a little more traditionally 'weddingy'.

If the weather is going to be very warm ... or hot ... it's best to stick to lightweight, natural fabrics for your comfort.

Less is definitely more with a beach wedding ... and white is THE most flattering colour for your touch-of-sun look!

I love fresh, pretty maternity dresses, like the sassy, fun Marilyn dress [pictured below] It's floaty and romantic, with just enough glitz to make it special enough for a wedding.

Dresses like this are perfect for your maternity wedding day itself with the bonus that you will want to wear them again and again afterwards!

For a super-casual but stylish look, team a classy maternity swimsuit with a pretty sarong.

Here's one of my favourite places to find ultra glamourous maternity swimsuits and the most amazing maternity kaftans. Gorgeous!

Sand and heels just don't work! Luckily there are so many pretty sandals and flip flops to choose from, you will be spoiled for choice.

And if your feet have swollen up with your pregnancy, flat wedding shoes or sandals will be so comfortable ... you can even get them in wide-width today and no one will be any the wiser!

Going bare foot is terribly romantic, but do check how hot the sand will be ... and that it's safe and pleasant to walk on too!

Trains and veils are much better suited to formal ceremonies and you'll probably find extravagant, heavily decorated dresses much too hot to be comfortable in.

If you really want a veil, I recommend you go for something short and ethereal. Orange Blossom have a huge selection of veils in all lengths and at different budgets ... well worth a look to see if they have one that's right for you!

And, if you're on a tight budget, you'll find easy-to-follow instructions for a pretty DIY veil here.

Will your wedding be outdoors, in a lovely spot close to a beach? You can still choose to go casual or opt for a beach maternity wedding dress that's just a touch more formal.

White maternity bridesmaid dresses are a good, budget-friendly alternative to ornate wedding gowns and their light, fresh styling works well for informal weddings.

A floaty dress, like the totally gorgeous Grecian maternity dress pictured right, or a crisp elegant cotton classic just go to prove that a relaxed approach to your clothes doesn't mean compromising on style.

Don't forget that natural fabrics in white or light shades will help you to keep cool all day long!

Choose your wedding shoes with care!

It's very common for pregnant women to suffer from swollen feet or ankles ... especially when temperatures rise!

Be sure to read these tips on finding pretty, comfortable wedding shoes here.

Find out in advance if your ceremony is going to be on grass. If it is ... you may find it much easier to walk elegantly if you opt for wedge wedding shoes or flatties!

In any case, I recommend you pack a pretty pair of 'emergency' bridal flip-flops or white ballet shoes ... just in case your chosen shoes don't fit on the big day ... or they hurt your feet! You'll find ideas for pretty flat wedding shoes here.
