I live in Miami and would like to set up a service AT the beach. I'm thinking along the lines of just putting a cheap canopy with a portable generator to do what I want to do. Are there taxes/is it legal to do this on a public beach?

I'm looking for a company who rent out bamboo canopy for beach wedding and will do all the set up etc. Is there any such beach wedding decoration company out there in sydney? thanks!

In VA beach? Like a picnic canopy that has the 4 walls and netting and all? *obviously not a huge one, one about 8 by 8 and 8 high* The reason I ask is because my man and I are going to be taking the dog to the beach, and I want the dog to have a place out of the sun, and umbrellas don't work, as sun gets under them. Any info appreciated!

I just returned from Playa Del Carmen Mexico where I loved the beach cabanas that were a large covered bed . I would like to find one here in california, but have had no luck locating any manufacturers online. I can't even find any photos of one. Aone with some clues as to finding one?

For my Birthday, I want to have a big canopy on the beach right next to the pier and serve food (no alcohol). Do I need a permit, or can I freely put up the canopy without anyone bothering me?

Anyone been there? Anything I should or shouldn't do? By the way I"m 24 year old male. I"m trying to have a good time.

A friend and I will be arriving in san jose mid august. We are only staying in san jose for a night then traveling over to jaco beach. We are interested in canopying, atv'ing, maybe whitewater rafting, and would like some suggestions on where to go for these types of activities around the jaco area and also more suggestions on some fun things to do in costa rica? Thanks a lot

OK, everyone's really being helpful with the answering of which beach to be married at along the california coastline. NOW, here's where I've been having trouble finding information. I want to set up a canopy, and have the reception there, on the beach, not at a restraunt nearby or at a hotel, right there on the beach. Now:). Has anyone done this yet or know how it can be done, if it's ever been done? I'm planning a sunset wedding, with the reception afterwards, but a brunch before the wedding, complicated right?:) but... the tent will basically be up all day, so. Anyone knows how and where I can accomplish this? thanks
