"It's a tropical Hawaiian theme weddings if they're on the beach. It's great with your arbor which is bamboo, seashells, an isle mark with; you know, the larger star fish, something creative so there's a path or Tiki torches. You just can't have flame on the beach. But you can have a Tiki torch with flowers. So it's again, it's just different, you know, different ideas. If you're in a garden already, then it's just your flowers; it's your colors and your flowers for the, for Hawaiian and tropical. Lace, seashells for your booths rather than flowers. We've had one, we had one that was orchids, orchids, orchids, orchids. So you know, and and then those were gifts. So it really, that really work out really well. Color specialties, specialty drinks. Okay. A little mimosa or mai tai or you know, something special that you can share during cocktail time. Alright. And then, once you go into the reception you can, you know, change that over and, and and have that open bar or just the beer and the wine, whichever you prefer. But, and decorating for Hawaiian and tropical is basically color because that's all you see are; birds of paradise, ginger, anthuriums and orchids and it's just absolutely beautiful. Ferns, there is nothing prettier on a beach than an arbor with ferns and palm trees; awesome; so so pretty. Food, skewers; things that are on skewers. I don't think you want to roast a pig. I don't think you want to dig a hole and put a pig and do that. Even though, you know, true there are some people who have done it if they're at their home; you can do that. If you're on the beach, you cannot do that 'cause each beach has their own rules and regs and almost all of them they are no, there's no open fire, open flames on the beach."
