Express you wild love for one another with these tips for how to plan a jungle themed wedding. Like other nontraditional wedding themes, these ideas can be tailored to indoor or outdoor ceremony and receptions.

Tips for Jungle Groom and Bride Attire
A wild dress is a must for your big day. Have a custom bridal gown made featuring your favorite animal print with a Groom's suit to match. Other options include a Tarzan and Jane theme or just a sexy wild couple look with cutout shiny fabric in the shape of leaves or Faux fur loin cloths.

Tips for Jungle Wedding Party Attire
Have all the bridesmaids in black slinky dresses. Have the groomsmen in faux snakeskin suits. You can even let them just choose their favorite jungle animal and come dressed as those. For extra surprise, have the ring bearer dressed up in a cute monkey costume and the flower girl in a cute banana costume like the found at Ideas for Your Halloween Banana Costume.

Tips for Jungle Wedding Decorations
Use large fake leaves all over for decorations, like for place-mats and even scattered on the floor. Incorporate Tiger Lilies or other exotic flowers. Try to find a reception site that has a pool or pond with a water fall for extra special effects. Add jungle leaves and floating candles. Use table top waterfall fountains as centerpieces. Have the guests release butterflies or birds after you are married. Read Valentine's Day Party Decorating Ideas: Jungle Love Theme for more great romantic ideas.
