Beach Wedding Slip and Fall

Destination beach weddings are all the rage this summer. Everyone wants to be outside, without pandemic restrictions, getting married on the beach. The sun, the fun and the waves make for a romantic venue for a wedding. But there is a downside to getting married outside on the beach.

When you get married on a beach, you are putting furniture that is meant to be inside, outside in the sun and sand. Any illumination such as lanterns or tiki poles are a new hazard for anyone attending the wedding, and that is just on the outside at daytime. The furniture such as seating that is placed outside was meant to be used indoor, and even the furniture can pose new hazards at a beach wedding, such as:

• Folding chairs folding all the way up, and the guest falling to the ground
• Folding chairs folding up and pinching or amputating a finger in the process
• Folding chairs sinking too far into the ground, creating a tripping and falling hazard when trying to alight from them
• Walkways or rugs, platforms or sidewalks holding uneven areas causing a fall
• Debris that is blown or washed into the area naturally by the sea or wind
• Decorations or arches falling down on someone’s head in the wind outside
• Hidden rocks, debris, logs or wood, glass, bottles or trash in the sand causing unseen tripping hazards for guests at the wedding venue

“Help, I Fell in the Soft Sand at a Wedding, So Why Are My Back and Ankle Killing Me?”

Falling on the sand can cause many different problems. First, you fell and were injured at a beach wedding when you are not as familiar walking in sandy areas. You more than likely fell with nothing to hold onto to help you stop the fall. In that case, you may have injured your ankle by spraining, twisting or even breaking the bone.

Ankle injuries occur when you are walking on unstable surfaces, and your foot accidentally turns in on itself. This stretches the ligaments, causing a painful injury of the ankle area. The ankle typically moves in harmony when you are walking on stable surfaces, but all bets are off for the ligaments of the ankle when you are walking on unfamiliar sandy areas. The ligaments are easily ruptured, torn or stretched out of shape to sprain, strain or break your ankle bone if you fall hard enough on it.

If you have hurt your back on falling in the sand at a beach wedding, you need to talk to a lawyer who is able to go over your claim and case information with you. It will be important to sort out what you need to become whole again after your personal injury. When you give our office a call today, an attorney is able to talk to you about the loss and damages that you suffered when you were injured at a beach wedding. We are able to discuss starting a lawsuit, that will be filed on your behalf to get you the recovery compensation that you need in this type of situation.

Falling Down on Sand Is Hard, Sand Is Not a Pillow!

Many people are surprised to find out that when they fall down on sand, they routinely hurt their backs and ankles. Remember, ankles are areas of your foot that help support all of your weight. As you fall down, you may land on the area of your back. You have to also remember, that sand is hard, it is not soft like a pillow. Falling down on sand is like falling down on the ground, because it IS the ground. Sand is an unstable surface, and your body has to adapt with every step. You have to be steady walking on sand, which is hard to do, and it is difficult to stabilize your small muscles in your feet.

When you walk on any surface, the energy force of your step is absorbed in the ground. Think of it this way: top athletes train on sand to get more of a high heart rate workout, to reach a higher anaerobic threshold than working out on the grass or concrete. For this reason, falling down on sand is like falling down on any other ground surface – and it is not a stretch to think that you will get injured, because you will.
