Hawaiian Wedding
Flowers
Nothing
completes a Hawaiian-themed wedding than the presence of
sweet-smelling flowers. Hawaiian wedding flowers complete
the entire scenario of warm tropical breezes, island
music, and flower-perfumed air. Traditional leis are worn
by every visitor. Generous bouquets of flowers are
displayed with dazzling floral arrangements at the
wedding reception that make the atmosphere totally
natural and just about as close to any garden as one
could get.
The
large, colorful blooms of the flowers in Hawaii bury the
fact that the names are difficult to pronounce. Among the
list are the flowers that many people have come to love
such as Hibiscus, Plumiera, Ginger, Heliconias, Birds of
Paradise, Costus, Orchids, and Calatheas. All these will
certainly add to the essence of a wedding meant to have a
Hawaiian theme.
Of
all Hawaiian flowers, the orchid is the most popular
and is
the
most difficult to keep fresh. The orchid requires
delicate handling from someone with enough experience.
Its bright colors make any Hawaiian wedding look magical.
It is always said that only professionals should be
trusted to handle orchids to ensure they are kept fresh
and presentable.
Of
course, the leis. No one would ever think of Hawaiian
flowers without leis coming into mind. This is a common
flower arrangement that is actually a necessity to make
things look Hawaiian. Brides can wear leis made of white
orchids. The groom, on the other hand, can wear leis made
of white orchids surrounded by green Ti leaves. The
flower girls and relatives can wear leis on their ankles
and wrists. The centerpieces can be made with piles of
flowers on silverware and glasses. These flowers can also
be in buckets with materials ready to have guests make
their own leis.
Fruits
and sweet fragrances will also come to mind in this
theme. This creates a
tropical atmosphere and is easily done
by piling fruits on large baskets. These baskets
make excellent table
centerpieces. This arrangement can replace flower
centerpieces and it can also be used as an anchor in a
buffet line. With these on the
buffet line, your guest would surely enjoy the tropical
atmosphere that you provide them as they make their way
through delectable dishes.
If
budget is somewhat tight, then seashells can be used to
accentuate decorations. Orchids and other flowers may be
tucked in conch shells to add creativity and decorations.
Just remember, Hawaiian wedding flowers need special care
to keep them fresh. You should then
take the necessary measures to ensure this for your
wedding.
