Beachy keen - Sea Shore inspired wedding details
The seashore trend is set to be big for weddings this summer. Natural materials, metallic finishes and a celebration of the outdoors all come together in a trend that’s shore to delight!
Whether you dream of a full mermaid wedding, or would just like to add some elegant natural touches to your special day, there are so many ways to include this trend.
We figured that brides who are drawn to this soulful trend will enjoy knowing their wedding details have been purchased from designer makers working in small studios with big passion.
With this in mind we’ve rounded up 5 of our favourite seashore trend products from some of our favourite artisans.
1.) Chocolate Oysters and champagne truffle pearls from choc on choc, £16 for 2 shells with 6 pearls from Not On The High street

We love this truly luxurious box of chocolate oyster shells with truffle pearls and think they would make stunning wedding favours or a delicious wedding gift for the special couple. They could even be used to decorate a beach themed cake!
2.) Kiko copper frames from Nkuku, from $14.99 https://www.nkuku.com/product/kiko-copper-frame

We always enjoy seeing pieces from the Devon Guild of craftsmen, and this ring by Mirri Damer with it’s unique texture really caught our eye.
Her “drift” collection features pieces inspired by the Cornish coast, including this ring which seeks to capture the play of light on the sand at low tide. We love the way the tiny diamonds mimic sparkles on the water.
