Hawaiian Themed Wedding
If
you are planning a Hawaiian themed
wedding then you may also want to have a Hawaiian
bridal shower. A Hawaiian themed bridal shower doesn’t
have to be a full luau. Instead you can use Ocean or
beach inspired colors and decorations and have a tropical
drink party.
If you want to have a Hawaiian themed wedding then a luau
may be a great design base to work around. For Hawaiian
wedding decoration you will need to look for Lauhala
mats, centerpieces made from leaves, ferns, and tropical
flowers, pineapples, palm fronds, sand, tropical
bird figurines, coconuts, torches, and fabrics for
draping in tropical colors of red, green, blue, purple, orange,
and yellow. For traditional luau food you will want to include
poi, poke, Lumilomi salmon, laufau, Kalua pig, opihi, chicken
long rice, Haupia, and Kulolo in your wedding menu. To
complete the Hawaiian feel of your wedding make sure that
you add Hawaiian music and dancers to your celebration.
In addition to having a luau, your Hawaiian wedding will
also need to include Hawaiian wedding
apparel. For the groom white linen pants and a white
Hawaiian Aloha Shirt will work great. For the bride
you can select from a white sun dress or a white
sarong. The wedding party can dress in white as well or
they can go with tropical colors to compliment the wedding
theme.
To complete your Hawaiian themed wedding you may also want
to buy tropical wedding favors
to give to your guests and wedding party. These favors may
include engraved or personalized items, or simple tropical
themed novelty items. A few favors that you can buy include:
grass skirts, coconut bras, seashells, hula dancer glass
ornaments, sea glass, Kamarri wood toasting cups, tropical
themed bookmarks with your favorite poem or Hawaiian saying,
and personalized tropical themed place settings.
