Caribbean Wedding Theme
If you are considering a Caribbean wedding theme for your big day...let's party! A Caribbean beach wedding is perhaps one of the easiest and most fun to plan. You just need a few ingredients to pull off an event that will be remembered for a lifetime - good food, lots of rum, island music and happy people! Let vibrant color and 'fun' be your motif and you can create a fabulous festival befitting of any truly Caribbean wedding. So...where to start?
Here are a few ideas to get your Caribbean celebration underway...
* Traditionally, invitations to a Caribbean wedding are done by word-of-mouth and anyone who shows up is welcome whether invited or not. Since you probably cannot afford to many 'surprise' guests, you may want to for-go this tradition in favor of colorful invitations or save-a-date cards. Impressions In Print has a wonderful selection of tropical themed invitations but my all time favorite artist for stunning tropical cards is Michelle Mospens. If you don't find the perfect invitation there, you won't find it anywhere!* Exotic tropical flowers such as Hibiscus, Bird Of Paradise and Orchids are a must for your bouquets. Here are some great ideas on how to incorporate these beautiful flowers into your bridal bouquets. A single, orange Bird Of Paradise bloom would make a stunning boutonniere. Consider silk flowers for lasting keepsakes. * As for you wedding gown - an absolutely stunning, snow white, silk bridal sarong is all you need to wear. No shoes are required but, if you want 'pretty feet' then you may want to consider foot jewelry or wedding flip flops. * Liven up your bridal party with vibrant sarongs in a rainbow of colors. * A Caribbean wedding theme calls for the traditional Black Rum Wedding Cake. The recipe for this cake, laced with fruit and rum, is passed from mother to daughter, generation after generation. Of course you don't have to have an authentic rum cake. You may just choose your favorite cake decorated with a festive, tropical, Caribbean flare. * The Island Wedding Shop has a terrific selection of wedding favors for a Caribbean wedding theme. These adorable Pink Flamingo Pops would be the perfect. You can put them is colorful vases to use as table centerpieces before passing them out as favors! Caribbean Soul has some great stuff too! * Traditionally, a Caribbean wedding celebration will last long into the night. Engage your guests in limbo contest or a conga line to get things going and let nature take it's course. Sipping on rum punch and dancing the night away to the sounds of Calypso and Reggae music from a live steel drum band will create an experience that no one will soon forget! You may want a few bamboo torches to light the way!
