*Now You Can Get Married on the Beach!*

Have you seen the great news from Bournmouth?

Britain's first ever beach weddings have become a reality after a beach hut designed for ceremonies was built.
The law in Britain states that ceremonies may only take place in a 'permanent covered building' - something which until now has proved difficult to put in place on British beaches.
However, thanks to a unique permission granted to Bournemouth Borough Council, couples can legally tie the knot on the resort's seaside.
Couple can arrive by train or by cliff lift, and the venue will offer intimate wedding ceremonies for a handful of friends and family, or larger celebrations for hundreds of guests.
Couples can wed on the beach between April and October every year, from 10am to 4.30pm, seven days a week.
Isn't this great news! I'm sure other beach towns will follow suit now & we will hopefully have beach chapels popping up all over the country.
Read all about it at Mail Online *here*
The beach hut chapel looks so cute & if you see the photo on the beach at the bottom of the article you will see some LOVE blocks which are this weeks *Product of the Week* here at Vintage Amethyst!

  1. I didn't know this, it's brilliant! Can they guarantee sunshine though? My daughter says when she marries it will be on a beach but, since she lives near Bournemouth, I hope she doesn't do me out of an exotic holiday and use this venue!
