How to Have a Modern Tropical Inspired Wedding



modern tropical wedding inspiration

If traveling to a tropical island isn’t in your wedding budget, don’t sweat it! Because you can have a beautiful, tropical inspired wedding without leaving your hometown (and save the island getaway for your honeymoon!).

This amazing collaboration from Kaitlyn Christine Photography took place in Meridian, Idaho, which is a far cry from anything tropical, including the coast. Yet the overall design boasts a fun tropical vibe with modern decor and loose greenery + florals at Coffee Paint Repeat. Show all the vendors some love below, and catch a closer look in the full gallery.

Bali Inspired wedding in Idaho


From Kaitlyn Christine Photography: Sprout Designs, Wildflower, and myself were inspired by Bali and the beauty it has to offer. However, being in Idaho we are far from that! So we collaborated and put together this styled shoot. Coffee Paint Repeat is a new venue in our town with beautiful windows and white walls which I thought would be a perfect place for this shoot.

Sprout Designs worked with Pottery Barn, Blush Creek, and Feather and Twine Homes to pull together the beautiful tables full of neutral center pieces. Sprout Designs also brought on Whitney Fredin Events to put together a gorgeous table size charcuterie board. Wildflower put together the bridal bouquet, ceremony backdrop and the lights above the table.

I'm extremely proud of this styled shoot as it is the biggest one I have ever put together and it came out even better than I imagined. I believe you can have a tropical style wedding without being on a remote island. All vendors pitched in their time and creativity for this shoot.
