Barefoot on the beach below the point, at four, as the tide goes out. Then up the steps to the terrace for dinner as the sun goes down, and dancing on the sand until it comes back in. We would love you there.

    The Ceremony

    The beach below the point

    Axim, Western Region

    Barefoot, on the sand, with the Atlantic behind the vows. Chairs on the firm sand above the tide line; shade for the elders. Seated by 3:45 PM, when the tide is at its lowest.

    The Reception

    The Terrace above the bay

    Up the steps from the beach

    Dinner under the palms as the sun goes down over the water, then dancing on the sand until the lamps are lit and long after.

    The way there
  • What to wear

    The colours of the shore

    The colours of the shore: sand, sea glass, coral and palm. Linen and cotton, nothing that minds the salt. Shoes come off at the top of the beach.

    • Sand
    • Sea
    • Palm
    • Coral
The order of the day

Write your reply in the sand

Your name, with a finger. Then leave it for the tide, which will carry it to us. Kindly reply by 20 November 2027.

On a real site your reply would now be with the couple. This one is a concept, so it stays on this device and nothing is sent.

The sea takes everything written on the sand, except the day itself. See you on the beach.
