Vibrant Jungle-Inspired Wedding Welcome Party In Amelia Island
If bold and vibrant is your wedding weekend style, you won’t want to miss this tropical jungle inspired wedding rehearsal dinner in Amelia Island, Florida. Caitlin and Green hosted a welcome party at The Ritz-Carlton to kick off their wedding weekend celebration. With a bold color palette perfectly fit for the tropics of Florida, to personalized custom details, and a few surprises too, this pre-wedding event is one the guests will not soon forget.
We’re thrilled to be able to share their night before the big day with photos from Donna Von Bruening.

A custom wedding welcome sign with tropical floral print greeted guests on a covered patio at the resort, allowing the warm Florida weather to be enjoyed at this festive rehearsal dinner. Colorful, tropical botanical table linens with mix and match linen napkins adorned a mix of dining tables and cocktail tables. A variety of whimsical and vibrant floral centerpieces graced each table. We love the mix and match floral centerpieces that highlighted the tropical garden vibes of this outdoor wedding rehearsal dinner. Gold vases held tropical leaves and lilies with gold butterfly accents on some tables, while small whimsical tree centerpieces with purple flowers were on other tabletops.
One of our favorite details of this vibrant rehearsal dinner is the custom greenery photo backdrop wall that was accented with purple florals and gold butterflies. For a personal touch, a custom neon sign hung at the top of the greenery wall as a nod to the couple’s new last name. Fairy lights and bubble balloons flanked each side of the greenery wall, add a touch of whimsy to this fun photo op for guests.
Not to be outdone by all the wonderful decor details, our bride Caitlin showed off her rehearsal dinner fashion sense in style! We love her white mini bridal dress with off the shoulders sleeves with oversized bow details - so chic! A floral crown of purple blooms and tropical leaves along with gold statement earrings were the perfect jungle-inspired accessories for our bride to be.
Custom signage with botanical details and jungle animals graced the buffet tables. Guests also had the chance to play a round of cornhole on custom-monogrammed cornhole boards. For one last pre-wedding surprise, Caitlin and Green had a fireworks display to end the night on a bang.
