The print campaign has been finalized!  Mywedding.com will be featuring our photographs in their 2012 online and print advertising campaign.  The first featured wedding will be of Sayaka and Mack, at The Royal Hawaiian.  The 2 page ad is running in Wedding Nouveau magazine, so look for it on your next trip to the book store. Wedding Nouveau features interracial marriages and fusion weddings.

Update:  The killer pink rose and orchid bouquet was created by Su-V Expressions.  Thanks Sue!

Sayaka & Mack had a “perfect in pink” wedding at the Royal Hawaiian.  This fabulous NYC couple had an awesome afternoon ceremony on the Ocean Lawn.  An intimate dinner followed on the lanai of the the Kamehameha Suite.  Sayaka dressed in a champagne Romona Keveza gown with Chanel shoes and Harry Winston jewelry.  Mack came as is – with his charming personality and his crazy cool hair.

We had a great time walking around the resort taking photos.  They’re such a fun, easy-going couple…  It was nice that they set aside time before their reception to spend on photos.  The property is almost as photogenic as them!

After photos, we went upstairs to the Kam Suite.  The big hit of the evening was the ahi poke with avocado and snow crab.  After a round of dancing and toasts,  Sayaka & Mack cut into their “mini” wedding cakes by A Cake Life, and paired it with a cool strawberry sorbet.

UPDATE:  Sayaka & Mack’s wedding is now being featured on Delightfully Engaged, an online planning guide for wedding ideas and inspiration!

Paiko Lagoon Private Estate wedding.

The wedding day for Erica & Edward was sunny, and actually… much, much warmer than usual.  It was one of the last hot weekends of summer.  Luckily, the marble floors and high beamed ceilings of the estate made for a cool retreat.  The property is almost it’s own private island, with Paiko Wildlife Sanctuary on one side, and the Pacific Ocean on the other.

The theme, fresh with lime greens and blues was a blending of two cultures, Chinese and Guamanian.  A traditional tea ceremony started off the day’s events.  After the western ceremony, we moved to the covered lanai for a relaxing cocktail hour and dinner catered by Indigo.

Just when I thought I’d seen it all at weddings…  A surprise!  The groom’s cake was in the shape of a latte stone, the unofficial logo of Guam.  I’ve never seen a lumpy, gray wedding cake before.  But, by the ooh’s and aah’s from Edward’s relatives, it proved to be a big hit.

As the sun set, the property was lit by strings of lanterns and candles.  A truly cool and romantic setting for dancing the night away!
