Is this arch durable enough for a beach wedding?

Provided the sand is deep enough, and support a bit of pounding. The arch that I ordered was not used in a sand environment.

Maybe. It would stab into the ground and hold pretty well, but I'm not sure about sand. Sorry.

Yes, I think so. We put A LOT of flowers on it and the wedding was outside near the water (not at the beach though). We had the groomsmen put it together before the wedding and it didn't blow away or anything. It's still standing outside in a garden area at my parents house and doesn't fall over. So I think it would probably be durable enough.

Not as it is. You would need two 2 by 4's with holes drilled in them to set each side of the arch's legs into for stability.

Yes if you sand bag it. Because of its size it wants to cant left or right or twist off center. What I did is make some weighted feet to give it stability. I used 4 buckets and filled them with plaster of Paris making sure the 4 bottom poles were centered and straight. The poles stay in the plaster of Paris forever and are transported separately in their own box. You can set the arch up on the beach and bury the buckets on the sand. You'll be good to go.

The legs will need to be secured or anchored with thin ropes ( depending on the wind speed) to insure security of the arch. I added flowers and netting, and it was the center point of our Vow Renewal. Congratulations! This arch isperfect.

If you added planks to each side under the legs to give it more stability, don't see why not. The planks could be 1" X 4"'s about twice as long as the arbor legs are. Long corner braces could be screwed to the planks - then to the four leg sides to stabilize it from wobbling too much from side to side. After the wedding, you would still have it to place in your landscape. Double whammy!

Yes, I would suggest that the arch be anchored in some manner, if it's windy where you live and if you will be growing a vine type plant on it.

Yes indeed, we have used it in a church setting and have found it to be very stable and durable!!

I would say they would be ok... but word to the wise if you are having an outdoor wedding you might consider something that doesn't melt.

I wouldn't use it at the beach, the top is all mesh and as far as I can see there is no anchor. It is also relatively flimsy (though is fine for indoor use). That all said, our kids love this tent!

No. It's too sturdy looking for a wedding decoration. It's meant to be "planted" in the dirt.

Yes and it stays nice...had it three months now.It gets used hard on the beach, no sand scratches or anyrhing. My husband and I both have them. We love them. The quality and price are fantastic. They don't have enough color choices but for performance and price they're number 1

We haven't had any issues with it, and we haven't put sand or anything in it, but it does sit under our table on a patio that doesn't get too windy! It's very cute. The edges are a little sharp. We like ours, especially for the price!

It is super easy to assemble. It isn't really strong enough to support heavy plant material in an open area subject to winds. However, is great next to or attached to a fence at a gateway, etc. I used 4 pieces of 24" rebar pounded into the ground attached to arch with some hose clamps. That stablelizes it and works great and doesn't cost much. If you want to use it freestanding for a wedding or something you can attach it to two sections of 4" x "4 wood. Just lay wood flat and drill 2 holes in each section to match the four bottom prongs of the arch. It is tall enough for most purposes. Good luck with your project. It is super easy to assemble.

Sure, but be aware that it is light and will not withstand a lot of constand wind. If using on the beach for a 1 time event I would suggest using the sides and screw in anchors for the tie downs. Hope this helps!

I purchased 8 tables for a Costal California Hotel April 2013. We normally find marine conditions tough on any patio furniture we purchase for this oceanfront hotel. These tables have held up remarkably well. We have not had to do any touch ups, and they get a lot of use year round. Hope this helps.

Yes. I've taken them through mud, sand, and snow without much of a problem. The biggest drawback is that the front axel isn't very strong, but we reinforced ours. We bought ours for kids, though, so it's going to get a lot more wear. For a bulldog on a beach, I think it'd hold up really well.

I walked around San Francisco Marina on new years and they held up quite well. I've also worn them multiple days afterwards. I'd say you'd be good for 3 days of to and from use in Vegas!

I have a similar table, though I didn't get it through Amazon. Mine is made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), which is a lightweight plastic. As I see it, it could withstand a rain shower or a dip in the water. But I'd think prolonged seasons of standing in water would eventually cause the screws and metal folding joints to rust/corrode.

Yes it's very durable..anchored it with wedge anchors on a cement slab and have had no problems

Sure. Nice quality and look. I have enjoyed my bench for over a year now and it's being used every day for our shoes.
