Are you have a tropical wedding theme where you live or are you planning to marry on a tropical island? Each option will have different considerations both of which are covered in this comprehensive tropical wedding planning guide. Buckle up you're in for a ride! 

Local Tropical Wedding Theme - more time to prepare and do yourself.

Destination tropical weddings require planning that is similar to that of traditional weddings, with the exception of a few things that are different and potentially more difficult to coordinate. It is possible that you will have to rely on the resort or a wedding planner to help you sort out all of the details for your destination wedding, which presents a unique challenge. Because you may not be able to arrive on site until a day or two before your wedding, you'll need a strong team to assist you in order to plan from a distance. Additional tropical wedding planning considerations:
  • Visit your wedding site the day before the wedding. This will allow you to ensure that it is easily accessible, to direct guests, and to locate parking.
  • If you're having a sunset wedding, book your officiant and photographer in advance. Sunset weddings are the most popular time of day, and finding someone at the last minute may be difficult.
  • Weddings on the beach are extremely popular. If you're shooting at the beach, inform your photographer. They might have some ideas.
  • Summer months can be extremely hot and sticky. Bear this in mind as you plan your gown, hair, makeup, and cake. (Frosting may melt.)



Decoration Ideas



Lauhala mats, centerpieces made of leaves, ferns, and tropical flowers, pineapples, palm fronds, sand, tropical bird figurines, coconuts, torches, and fabrics for draping in tropical colors such as red, green, blue, purple, orange, and yellow will suit a tropical wedding décor theme. Other ideas include bringing in real or artificial palm trees in a pot, old surf boards, bamboo screens, Hawaiian tikis (statues) and torches. Decorate by weaving palm fronds through the backs of chairs to create a tropical feel. Pampas grass is a trending tropical wedding decoration. Fill glass fish bowls with water, shells, colored glass pebbles and floating candles. Garlands made from tropical flowers and leaves can be used a table runner.

  • Surf Shack Style Bar
  • Surf boards to prop up around the place, against thebar (cardboard cutouts)
  • Inflatable pink flamingos
  • Inflatable palm trees
  • Random pineapple, tropical palm tree, flamingo decor
  • Hibiscus flowers (artificial will do)
  • Raffia table skirting
  • Seashells
  • Coconuts
  • Flowers


    Select tropical flowers that are native to the area where your wedding will be held. Flora such as orchids and birds of paradise can be found in many Caribbean islands, and they make for beautiful wedding bouquets and centerpieces. A combination of fern, ivy, lemon leaf, pampas grass, or lily grass creates an absolutely lovely effect. The following are some popular choices for tropical bouquets. 

    Anthurium 
    These stunning Hawaiian flowers are ideal for use in larger flower arrangements. They are pink, red, white, or orange in color and may have green striations.

    Strelitza, or Bird of Paradise
    These are simple to locate and simple to use. They are a tropical flower that is well-known and recognized by the majority of people. They look stunning when arranged in a large arrangement.

    Orchid
    For generations, the orchid has been the quintessential wedding flower. They are more delicate and, as a result, can be quite costly. You can order them directly from the grower and save significantly on the price. Additionally, they are quite fragrant.

    Ginger
    An extremely attractive flower from an architectural standpoint. They can add vital height to a large arrangement.

    Plumeria or Frangipani
    If you want a bouquet that is both beautiful and fragrant, choose the plumeria. They are available in a variety of colors and blend well with other flowers.

    Hibiscus 
    Although this is an exquisite flower, it is not widely used. They are only temporary. If you are having a destination wedding and have the opportunity to obtain these freshly picked, you will not be disappointed.

    When purchased through a florist, many tropical flowers are quite expensive. If you want them but are on a budget, consider ordering them directly from a grower and creating your own tropical bouquets. It's simple to do and will save you a fortune.

    Provide your guests with a cocktail mix, such as Pina Colada, so they can relive your wedding day at home, even more so if you serve it as your signature drink during cocktail hour. Additionally, you could include a cute cocktail shaker, glass, or other cocktail mixing accessories.
