I would like to know where to get ideas for a Hawaiian wedding, but put on in the United States (Boise, ID) Can you help me? Thank you.

 An interesting idea...You could have your florist make flower leis for your guests (or bridal party). If they don't know how, check with florists from Hawaii, who could ship them to you (www.hawaii.com and drill down to local florists). You could decorate your and the bridesmaids hair with flowers. Or you could have shell leis which wouldn't wilt - Hilo Hattie's in Hawaii have lots of them & you can probably order them. If you are having your reception in a hotel, they would probably be a good source for decorations - like rented palm trees or ferns to decorate the room or imitation torches (real might present fire hazards - unless your reception is outside). You could check with local rental/party vendors to see what kinds of decorations they may have (like maybe waterfalls or volcano stuff?). Perhaps some local dance studios could come perform hulas at the reception. It might be tougher to find someone who knows how to blow conch shells, but again, maybe dance studios would have some sources. Your DJ could play Hawaiian music Or, if you have a band, they could dress Hawaiian & add some Hawaiian music (check to see that they could play that before you hire them). If you print in your reception card that you are having a Hawaiian theme, perhaps your guests will dress accordingly. Some appetizers could include large fresh fruit plates with pineapples, etc. Or maybe you could have a pig roast (is that Hawaiian??). You could decorate the tables with shells and flowers & even perhaps sand with shells on the cake table? If you really wanted to go colorful, you could have Hawaiian print table cloths for the reception. You could check with the wedding coordinators in Hawaii (again www.hawaii.com) to see what types of things they do in Hawaiian weddings (of course they have the actual setting to work with)...
