The first part of a fun beach wedding is to ensure that all your loved ones are staying in the same property so they don’t miss a single moment of celebration.

2) Choose the right time of the year

Goa turns into a glorious heaven of greens in the monsoon. Between the months of June to September even the North Goa beaches become quieter.

If you want an off-beat, fun beach wedding, then hire one of the best wedding planners in Goa to help you plan one in the rains on a budget. You can take your vows in the mandap inside a luxury resort overlooking the sea and have a rain dance party afterwards.
