Hawaiian wedding flowersHow to spruce up your pictures with fantastic tropical flowers!

Beautiful fresh Hawaiian tropical flowers are the most economical way to really see a difference in your Hawaiian beach wedding set up and to spruce up your wedding photography.

This bouquet is an arrangement of deep purple and white orchids, pink anthrums (the heart shaped flowers) bright orange royal Ilima, light yellow day lillies and white fragrant tuberose (the small white flowers).

Choose any or all of these bright colors for your theme, and then anything goes. Choose purple orchid leis for your guests, and for the fresh flower cake top. Hawaii has some of the freshest most brilliant flowers in the world, grown locally so you can decorate to your hearts’ desire while maintaining your budget.

A colorful Haku (head) lei is a nice traditional touch and a great way to add vibrant color. The bride may also choose the white and green haku lei for herself and the colorful haku’s for her bridesmaids and/or flower girl.

If you are looking for a way to really accentuate your color theme without adding a lot of expense to your wedding package then I highly suggest adding fresh flower leis, you can double or even triple them for the guests and bridal party.

The traditional green leaf groom’s maile lei combined with a bright colored fresh flower lei (or even two) will add more than you can imagine to the over all look of your set up (not to mention your photography) without putting too much of a dent in your pocketbook.

Decorate your arch with long fresh flower orchid leis in any color draped over the back, and give your set up an elegant look. Try wrapping some colorful leis around tiki torches, and place them on either side of where the bride and groom stand during the ceremony. You simply can’t go wrong! There are so many ways to decorate on a budget, that’s why I LOVE using brilliant fresh topical flowers, as many as possible, this is one area where there is no such thing as too much!
