Wedding reception decorations ideas

Beach weddings need a perfect ambience to have a beach wedding and tiki torches have come to play a major role in the beach decorations. These can be used as tiki torch centerpieces as well as the decoration items on the periphery of the venue.

Try the unlit tiki torches along the entrance path

The best way to decorate the entrance path or even mark the path for the bride in a beach wedding is to have unlit tiki torches on either side and these will form kind of a path.

As far as the decorations are concerned make sure that you use the organza or the white chiffon for adding some style. On the top of the tiki torches where the actual flame should have you can use some nice floral arrangements or even fill the cavity with the petals.

For a daytime wedding this will work and the bamboo tiki torches will be great decorations.

For the wedding reception at night on a beach or otherwise the tiki torches will work wonderfully and you can create a good Hawaiian luau wedding touch to any wedding.

Tiki Centerpieces

Tabletop bamboo tiki torch centerpieces are the most in vogue and easily they are the big money savers and they only cost about $5 on an average. You can easily procure them on eBay or Amazon and get it shipped to the venue of your choice. They also go with the bamboo wedding arches on the beach wedding.

Decorations of the Tiki Torch

Get a big tiki torch made up of metal like copper or brass and then make sure that use all the tropical greens and the nice limes that are available on the island especially in Hawaii style and decorate that torch. Usually you can have the green leaves runner along with artificial fruits in many florists and crafts shop.

A copper tiki torch without decoration along with the nice flower petals all around it also looks good.

Flowers like calla lilies and plumerias can be used to decorate the upper part of the torch from outside generally and this way you can also easily hide the patterned reed holding the wick and use the ferns runner on the stem or the shaft of the torch.

Colors – Use burnt orange, red and the yellow colors for the decorations.

Tiki torch where to keep it.

As I suggested earlier you can keep it on the path to the wedding venue as a set of five on each side.

Lot of people light the torch when it comes to the wedding vows and they are a good backdrop. You can only use one as a backdrop which will in the center of the tow individuals when you see it from the other end or you can put one on each side of the couple.

Tip: Always use the bamboo tiki torches as the stainless steel tiki torches or the copper tiki torches will not have that required elegance. The metal tiki torches are good for the outdoor décor of the home but not for weddings.

The other challenge with gas based tiki torches is that you will have to hide the gas tanks if at all you are using them instead of the canisters.

If you are doing a tiki themed wedding or you are a tiki aficionado then make sure that you everything which is tiki including the tiki torch wedding centerpieces, tiki mugs as favors, tiki stools to sit on and tiki wedding cake topper on the wedding cake. You can have the small tiki hut shaped glass boxes as the weeding favors.

To complete the tiki theme use the tiki bar signs for the directions for the guests.

For pure experience of the tiki weddings the best way is to go to Oahu in Hawaii or the Kauai or Kailua or the most famous for tiki called the Waikiki.

Additional tip ; If you are getting married in Hawaii , make sure that you have the luau or the wedding feast.
