Make your own wedding flowers
For the bride, groom and entire wedding party
Plumeria or frangipani
Buy tropical flowers for your destination wedding. They are a fraction of the cost of a florist.
These flowers are not only beautiful, but they are incredibly fragrant, as well. With their wonderful smell and beauty, they are perfect for a Hawaiian lei or Haku (wreath for the head).They are also very colorful, ranging from yellows to pinks. If you want them to be most fragrant, use plants at night or in the evening.

Hibiscus
Although these are incredibly beautiful and remind most of the tropics, they aren't the ideal wedding flower. They usually only last one day and are difficult to keep freshe when shipping.If you are having a destination wedding, or are able to pick them when you will be using them, they will work well for your arrangements.

Do it yourself wedding flowers
Or let the florist do it for you
If you don't have the time or inclination to make your own, you can order from a local florist. They will cost quite a bit for the tropical flowers, though.
Your third option comes in between these two. You can order the pre-made arrangements from a company in Hawaii that is the grower. You cut out the middle man, have the flower arrangements made for you professionally and still save quite a bit of money. They will also last for quite a while since the arrangements are made right after picking the flowers.
How ever you decide to go, tropical flowers will add to your wedding immensely. They are unparalleled in their beauty.
