    We donated to the American Cancer Society in honor of my deceased father.  We designed cards that matched our theme and placed them at each table.  They were appreciated and I didn't have to carry a ton of stuff to our destination.

    i had a destination wedding on the beach in the Outer Banks, we did Koozies and personalized Jones Soda,

     

    I also found this great website for personalized fortune-cookies that are shaped like seashells, called Shuckies. I'm pretty sure I saw a Bee had them on her blog... http://www.shuckie.com/whatisashuckie.html

    I bought little chocolates in the shape of shells and put them in a pretty organza bag.  You can see the pics on my profile.

    We're thinking of doing sky lanterns... They can choose to make a wish, light it up, and release it there; or take it home. It's not traditional, but we think it will be fun, make for pretty pictures; and we don't have to worry about the difficulties with transport or getting food-related items into the country!

    Have you seen these Beach Candy Apples?  I haven't seen anyone do anything like that.  It definitely looks "beachy"

     

    Found them at PlatinumGoodies.com

    I like the sunscreen idea, maybe with a personalized label.

    If you're looking for an honest opinion, I think the beach theme is so common, and the favors available on various websites are very similar and always predictable. Since I'm always looking for unique ideas, I would steer clear of favor websites if I was going beach-themed. I think the sunscreen idea is unique, and actually useful. (not trying to sound snarky, re: threads from yesterday)
