Your themed wedding cake (6) can combine a sleek tiered form with one gilded layer and a large fern leaf as accent. While the same fern motif can be echoed in the reception tablescapes (3) graced by lush foliage centerpieces, white roses and mums in bamboo vases, and the surprise of lace runners and napkins paired with industrial-style metal plate chargers! Make use of tropical fruits like coconuts (8)  and pineapples that provide rich textures and colors to your tablescapes.

For those well thought out details to round out the theme, think tropics-inspired signature cocktails like pineapple mojitos (5) to keep guests cool, as well as wedding favors with an authentic air like seashell trays (7) at each place setting holding tropical treats.
