A wedding is a solemn event that you want to remember for a lifetime. Often, newlyweds have a desire not only to sit decorously at the table all evening, but also to amuse themselves and their guests. A Hawaiian-style wedding can fully satisfy this desire.
The nuances of the "Hawaiian wedding"
Hawaii is an exotic island lined with palm trees, teeming with delicious fruits and surrounded by water on all sides. To convey all the flavor, you need to choose the right place for a themed wedding. The ideal option is the seashore / ocean.
If there are none, a pool will do. In this case, for the celebration, you should rent a sports complex or a country house. Another option - a Hawaiian-style wedding can be organized among exotic greenhouse plants.
When planning a Hawaiian-style wedding, a lot of attention should be paid to the surroundings. First of all, these are, of course, characteristic "necklaces" of flowers and leaves, skirts made of long fringes, plant hair ornaments. If it is too expensive to create accessories for guests from natural flowers, you can limit yourself to products made from artificial materials.
Accessories for tables will also help you feel like you are in Hawaii. Various umbrellas, bright tubes, figures for glasses will not be superfluous here. The dishes themselves can also be multi-colored - this will make the wedding original and memorable.
Just as a theater begins with a coat rack, a wedding begins with an invitation received. To make guests feel the "exotic touch" as a crystal, use not standard, but thematic postcards. If there are not many people planned, make them yourself (up to a schematic drawing). Otherwise, use a professional or buy matching invitations from the store.
How to have a Hawaiian wedding
Hawaii is renowned for its friendliness and hospitality. The islanders greet guests with wide smiles and welcoming cocktails. Repeat this tradition in a Hawaiian wedding scenario. Let animators in appropriate costumes welcome the guests at the very beginning of the holiday. For cocktails, you can set up a special bar with a bartender, or girls in Hawaiian outfits can distribute them.
Next, set the mood. This can be done using a special video sequence. For example, it may contain shots of nature, fun island and beach parties. If the newlyweds were participants in such events, these fragments should be included at the end of the presentation.
Upon completion of the video, the invitees meet the newlyweds. This moment should pass without the traditional wedding crowd. Girls in costumes scatter petals of exotic flowers in front of the young, while male animators present special cocktails. Use national melodies or live music (with drums and other island-specific instruments) as musical accompaniment.
After the first toast “To the Young”, events can develop in different ways. For example, you might invite a group with Hawaiian-style numbers to the stage. Or immediately start moving activities. One of the most interesting and exciting are the Hawaiian dance master classes. Be sure to include it in the event program.
Please note: for a Hawaiian wedding, you don't have to come up with sophisticated new contests and entertainment. Traditional ones decorated in a new way are also quite suitable. For example, the ransom of the bride can be presented as "the national fun of the islanders", and "Boy or Girl" can be called "Coconut Auction". Be sure to include some bamboo stick fun in your script. This interesting game will appeal to guests of all ages.
