Re: centerpieces for a luau party

saw a ton of stuff at Party City

What about shovel and pails in the center of the table with rocks to hold it down and then tie balloons to the pail. Blue, orange, white, green?

Maybe put the grass skirts around the tables?

those are sooo cute!!!

I made her invites, they look like grass skirts with flowers around them, u lift up the "grass" and the invite is underneath.
I got grass skirts to go around the tables.
I got a bar kit from Party City to decorate the bar to make it look like a tiki bar.

I also plan on making some kind of decorations for inside the tent we rented

Re: centerpieces for a luau party

what about clear bowel with orchids or some other tropical flower floating in it.

Stop and Shop has an excellent floral dept that you can order from and they are really inexpensive. I have ordered flowers from them many times and was always extremely happy.
