The great thing about them is that you really don't need to go overboard (sorry about the pun) on decorations (the venue will do a lot of the work for you). Light fabrics, large flower arrangements, and you're done! Love, love, love pier weddings!

I think manipulating the lighting would be the most effective way to decorate in this situation. Good luck with your wedding endeavors! A wedding on a pier would be beautiful.

I agree that we should let the beauty of the place speak for itself, I'll use the design elements suggested to create the aisle and "altar" space, otherwise keeping it simple and natural. We're getting married in the daytime, otherwise the lanterns and candles would have been lovely... Just found out there will be a tall ships festival at the time of our wedding so should look beautiful! Thanks again for all your help!

We're going to decorate the last two dock posts by floating flowers in large clear dishes (<a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90124402" rel="nofollow">http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90124402</a>). We also got two small lanterns (<a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/26472200" rel="nofollow">http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/26472200</a>), but I'm not sure candles will stay lit with all the wind. For the gazebo itself, I bought wide, sheer white ribbon to wrap around the front two pillars, and very thin white and silver ribbon to hang in swags from the ceiling. Aside from that, just rose petals strewn on the dock. We'll greet guests with champagne as they arrive. I agree, with a beautiful outdoor setting, less is more.

Also pillar candles in hurricanes lining both sides of the pier could be stunning, inexpensive and eco-friendly.

They could be attached to the posts along the pier, or just at the end to create a nice "alter." This website has a list of companies that carry them: http://www.funkites.com/weddingbanners.htm.
