Our Wedding in Hawaii Elizabeth Ginnett and Brian Cox

It was so great to speak with you =) I am very excited to plan our wedding! I have to tell you again how beautiful and professional your website is. Your photography talent and your wife's flowers and decorations are breathtaking. I also appreciate your kind and welcoming personality. It really makes all this planning so enjoyable and stress-free. =)

My fiance, Brian, and I actually fell in love in Hawaii on a trip we took with mutual friends. It has continued to be a passionate soft spot for us through our relationship. We live in Southern California, but are hoping to someday retire in a beach house on Oahu =) To say we got married in Hawaii would be incredibly special to us. I attached a few pictures of us from the day he proposed. Funny that he is wearing a Hawaiian shirt and I have an orchid in my hair =)

We are still hoping for May 15th or 16th on a beautiful secluded b in Hawaii . My first choice would be Lanikai, but I understand we cannot upset the residents. However, If we were able to finish up the photos at Kailua Beach where my fiance's Aunt and Uncle live, that would be a great option. Is the beach where your latest wedding occurred (Alexandra and Jonathan)

Hi Paul =)

Brian and I cannot stop talking about how perfect our wedding day was! You and Dewi created the most beautiful beach set-up. It was a great surprise to step out of the limo, look down the beach and see the bright colors of the chairs and the Beach Arch. Then when the girls were handed their bouquet's, I couldn't believe how gorgeous they were. I almost cried when I saw mine wrapped in the beautiful blue ribbon. Everything was perfect, and coordinated perfectly, even down to our music choices for the ceremony.
We also can't thank you enough for getting Mahalani to officiate our ceremony. His wonderful talent for putting everyone at ease, and providing such a beautiful day full of song, prayer, and Hawaiian tradition really made our ceremony extra special.
Again we can't thank you enough. We can't wait to see the pictures and our website =)

Jenilee and Steve's wedding in Hawaii

Jenilee and Steve's Wedding

I love the itinerary you put t0gether, We are getting very excited. In one week we will be on a plane to Hawaii.
Thanks for all the great work you are doing!

I think I will go with Beverly Kaneshige for hair and make up. The Paradise Cove luau looks great!
We will do the sand pouring-just regular sand is fine.
We will also have someone do the conch shell before the ceremony.

Also, I was thinking I could not have the massage and put it towards the other limo.
I am having a massage and pedicure the day before we leave anyways. Would that be ok?

If you have any other questions feel free to call or email anytime.
Our wedding is approaching fast! I have a few questions and additional information for you.

Hi there you two love birds, was just thinking about you and wanted to contact you too,
I will try and call in tomorrow morning your time ok, what is the best number to contact you at.

Well, Our Wedding in Hawaii is approaching fast! I have a few questions and additional information for you.
Yes it too fast ..

We were wanting to have a few bottles of wine(3 or 4) for the luau. Do we supply that or can we have that arranged?
Yes of course i can help arrange that,, we can have alcohol on the beach its against the law and the permit for the wedding wont allow that,
but we could have the bottles in the limos......and have them stop at a lookout point and toast and drink to wedding and before if you like...
I have a cosco card if you want to go with me we can go together and pick out the wine... or if your busy just let me know what type of wine you want.

in the package i have a limo for you and your girls..... it sits 8 people and that included no charge....
for your other guest i recommend getting a large limo that site 20.... that will make it sooooooo much easier, the large truck excursion limo is also available.

We chose the ukulele for the ceremony, is it possible to have them play "Jesu joy of mans desiring" by Bach?
Wow i love that piece ,,, but impossible for the ukulele, its usually a guitar of harp or piano piece.... would you rather have a harp? or guitar.
or we could have the ukulele for the other songs and i can bring an ipod for : Jesu joy of Mans desiring"

I am still unclear about the luau. Is the luau on the beach? Is it just our guests and the entertainment? Is it close by?
Yes i need to talk to you about the Luau,

Thanks Paul. We are getting very excited! I will try giving you a call on Monday and hopefully we can discuss these questions further over the phone.
Ok lets talk soon look forward to hearing from you and i will call too... aloha see you in Hawaii soon..

Aloha's recent wedding in Hawaii

The wedding couple has choose to remain anonymous

7:30 in the morning ...... Waikiki 1100am

We would love to have a meeting with you please!

Package: Beach Chapel Arch Package

Location: Private beach area

I love Chris Miller&Angela Adams’s beach! Is it Waimanalo Beach? I love the way it’s so close to the ocean! I prefer ‘close to the ocean’ over ‘between the trees.’

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/angelaceremony.htm

I love Lindsey&Anthony’s and Shawn &Aki’s beach, too! (their ceremony location, not the kimono photo shoot location) Is that Waimanalo Beach also?

Groom’s mom

Groom’s big sister and her husband, and their 2 children

(a 6^th grader and a 9^th grader)

Bride’s aunt

Bride’s cousin and her husband, and their 2 children

(a 3-year old and an one-year old baby)

11 seats needed for now

We’re still inviting some local friends …(not confirmed yet)

We’ll let you know later how many seats in total are needed.

Transportation:

We don’t want to see each other until the ceremony starts, so we need 2 limos;

one for bride/her family, and the other one for groom/his family.

If the package includes a limo, we need to rent only one more? Please let me know!

Wedding Party: No bridesmaids/no bestmen/no flowergirl/no ring bearer

Theme Colors: Turquoise, varieties of pink (dark pink is the main),

with yellow/orange accent

Bouquet: love Melissa & Joey’plumeria bouquet but I want the lea leaves to be a little bit shorter and I want more flowers instead

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/melissa/melissa.htm

Leis: For our close family: for parents (3) yellow lei..................

I’m not sure what kind of flower…I need help please!

For groom: Love Brendon’s lei with green leaves and white flowers!

(Julie Gledhill & Brendon Virgil) I love its volume too!

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/julie/gledhill.htm

I want one more color added to this Brendon’s lei, maybe one color from our theme color.

I want the color to be just a very very simple accent so, not too many flowers.

(It’s so hard to explain in English! HAHA…I hope you understand what I mean!)

So it’ll be Brendon’s green leaves and the white flowers, plus one more kind of flower.

Bamboo arch: with organza and hanging flowers like Julia Sherbina & James Wilson

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/julia/setup.html

Silk organza colors: Varieties of pink, orange as an accent

Flowers: Love the two strings of flowers hanging on the arch,

except I want both strings to be Long enough to reach the ground.

Aisle: Entrance of the aisle--- exactly the same as how you did with Justin & Jill;

The pink bumpy flowers/orange bird of paradise/green leaves

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/jill/setup.html

Please let me know the names of the flowers!

Along the aisle---I want to have lots of flowers!

with the thick green leaves that are used in the picture that is the 6^th picture from the left when you open this page….

http://alohaislandweddings.net/gallerybeach/flashGallery.html

and other kinds of flowers…but I’m not sure what kind..I need help please!

Aisle---yellow plumeria petals, pink plumeria petals..?

I don’t know if they match our theme color..I need help!

Seats: Turquoise sash with orange hibiscus (like Valerie &Jeff’s)

http://www.alohaislandweddings.net/flashGallery.html

Cake:

Design: We like a cake like the one below ‘cup cake with yellow plumeria flowers
dark chocolate cupcakes with white vanilla cream’ on the page…

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/cakes2.htm

It’s the one with two-tiered cake with flowers, except I love to have flowers that colors match our theme color.

Flavor: Haupia flaver with white vanilla cream, please.

Ceremony minister: Makoto doesn’t speak English, so we prefer a bilingual (English/Japanese) person. Also, we want a nonreligious ceremony please.

Who would you recommend? Can you please give us the names of the possible ministers ?

Solo Musician: We’re not sure about music yet. We want something romantic and sentimental Hawaiian music.

Maybe ukulele…and singing.

We need your help, please, Paul! If you have a list of Hawaiian music good for wedding, that would be really appreciated! Thank you!

I like something like the beginning part of this song.

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/heather/flashGallery.html

Flowers for bride’s hair: needed: not sure what kind of flowers yet…

Manicure & Pedicure: not needed

Make-up: not needed

Notes and Questions:

How much is Sand mixing during the ceremony?
we will include the sand ceremony for a fee of $75 with bottles and color sand.

We’ll be legally married in Japan in Feb. but we won’t file our marriage in the US.

Do we still need to apply for marriage license? Or do we just need to bring our Japanese marriage certificate?
No just bring the Japan Certificate to show the minister.

We don’t need the Online wedding website. Thank you!

Ok no problem we will keep it private for you..

I just wanted to say Paul what a wonderful experience it has been working with you! Any time I needed to ask even the smallest of questions, who were readily there, and were more than obliged to help, and always had suggestions. Not for one second did I stress...seriously! Not only that, you made our day THE most beautiful and memorable day we could have asked for...thank you beyond words! You have a gift Paul, and thank you for sharing it with us. Our love, and thanks Jewel and Jamie (please feel free to share our rave review with others...you deserve it)!!!


Getting excited as the days are rushing by...only 4 more months and we
are getting so excited! Just wanted to let you know that I will be
calling you in the next couple of weeks to discuss the ceremony in a little more detail like we had discussed back in July when you had called. Just to give you a heads up, I had a couple of questions for you, and
ONCE AGAIN, a couple of changes to the ceremony from what I had previously emailed to you (gosh, do all brides change their minds as much as I have???haha!) First I wanted to thank you for sending me those restaurant links...they were extremely helpful. We finally decided on Aaron's atop the ala moana and it's reserved and all good to go...so thank you
so much for sending us in the right direction! It looks beautiful.

Mei and William, I imagine your baby is born now, i have a question how do you go surfing while six month pregnant and have your wedding the next day??...

A young man that i know of who graduated with high ranks in his field of photographery at he prestigious Brooks institute of photography and film used a throw away camera as part of his photo project, which actualy won an award with the photo....

"his intuitive insight was formost i imagine to unviel the present moments glory ..... , his courage and conviction to the beauty of the moment was to him beyond the intelectual knowlegde of the camera.

Picasso " I studied my whole life in painting to be able to paint like a child who touches the canvase with a piant brush for the very first time".

Hello

My name is Nicole Skinner my partner and I are from Australia and have decided that we would like to get married in Hawaii next September,
I am interested in the Beach chapel arch wedding but I was wondering if I could customize it to something that more suits me.

As I am from Australia I have very few people coming so I will not be having a bridal party I was wondering if I
could take out the bouquets for them also the 2 tiered wedding cake.

I was also wondering if the video footage would be able to be taken out.

I would like to know if this is at all possible and if you could give me a quote on how much it would cost

I hope all is well. It was great talking to you the other day and gaining a better understanding of your visualization, which is very important. I will lean on you for a lot of the details and recommendations for how things will look best. Here is the basic information:

Bride: Ashley Radel

Groom: Gerardo (LC) Colmenero

Address: 71112 Glenn Moor Dr.

Liberty Twp, Ohio 45011

Telephone: XXX-225-5962 (My cell phone)

Attendees: Chris Radel (Bride Mother)

Dale Radel (Bride Father)

Location: Your recommendation -Beaautiful Beach

Day: Preferably September 29, 2008

Time: Your recommendation - Best time to take pictures?

Color: Leaf Green - mixed with other shades of green and white --- Your visualization of how it will look best

We will only have two people at the wedding, which means we will want something very simple, but beautiful. Our main focus will be pictures.

Since we will only have two people, what are our package options and the costs associated with the packages?

Respectfully,

Ashley

I really like this bouquet: http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/Hawaii_wedding_flowers.htm

Bouquet description:

Cinnamon Calla Lilies, Champagne Roses,
Peach Sweethearts Pale Lavender Rosemary Flowers hide in my Cream hued Rose Enrich
Cascading Waterfalls, Teary eyed Shaped Spherical Globe Bouquet.
Daisy Filled Frolic Purple and Green Dancing Lipped Dendodrium Orchids ,
Visceral Composite mixed w/ forest moss green
Spinach Forest viral Hawaiian fern, Sprinkle the Sunny Marigolds for extra spice
The Science of Bouquet Beauty 'Paul Your Coordinator '

Flower comment: If my bouquet is like the above, we could add complimentary brighter colors for the walkway -- you know what looks good for that and the circle (my only comment is that I'm not a huge fan of yellow for the walkway). Other than that personal preference, I believe you know what will look the best.

Minister: Rev Michael .......................

Cake: Round (not square like I said earlier)

Please let me know if you have any questions.

I'm going to send you a couple of pictures to help with the visualization.

Thanks Paul-

Ashle

The Stunning Flora of the Hawaiian Islands

Nature lovers would definitely adore Hawaii. It is home to numerous fragrant flowers, abundant vegetation as well as some interesting plant life. There are several botanical gardens and parks that actually showcase the variety of Flora found in the state. Travelers could unwind by strolling around various gardens and catch a glimpse of these beautiful plants. Listed below are a few of the dazzling Flora found in Hawaii:

 The Birds of Paradise are originally from Africa, but they have evolved into something like a Hawaiian trademark. These are clearly identifiable by their characteristic vibrant blue and orange blossoms set in grayish-green bracts, which make them appear as if the flowers are birds ready to take flight.

 The African Tulip Trees could actually grow up to over 50 feet in height. From a distance, travelers would still be able to see its bright red flowers. The flowers’ buds could hold water that is why the local kids love to play with these flowers and to use them as water pistols.

 There exist over 1,400 species of Bromeliads, which is the name that the pineapple plant is commonly known as. Hawaiian natives also call these plants as Bromes and they are usually prickly plants that differ in size. These are extremely famous for their unique foliage as well as their unusual and magnificent flowers. One would be able to find the Bromeliads on all the islands of Hawaii, and they are extensively used for interior decoration and landscaping, most notably in the resort areas.

 The Macadamia is another pride of Hawaii, even if they initially came from Australia. The Big Island and Maui grow these trees and as a matter of fact, the macadamia nuts have recently turned into a profitable crop in Hawaii. These huge trees could grow up to staggering 60 feet high, and they also carry tough-shelled nuts that are enclosed in a somewhat leathery husk that cracks open and dries once the nuts are already ripe.

  The sole state that manufactures coffee commercially is Hawaii. The Coffee is an evergreen plant that possesses waxy, glossy, dark green as well as very pointed leaves. Its flowers are tiny, sweet-smelling white blossoms that mature into half inch berries that would change into bright red once they are ripe. Tourists could search for coffee at a height of more than 1,500 feet on Kona at Hawaii’s Big Island. Guests could also tour huge coffee plantations found on Maui, Molokai, Kauai, and Oahu.

  Orchids are also closely linked to the state. The most vastly grown orchid variety as well as the chief source of blossoms for creating leis is the Vanda Orchid. These are usually either white or even lavender, but they also develop in an assortment of colors, sizes and shapes. The variety of orchids that is utilized when making corsages is the huge and fragile Cattleya. Those that are used for floral arrangements are generally the Dendrobiums variety. When travelers are on the Big Island, they should not miss on an opportunity to explore the countless orchid farms located in Hilo.

 There are still numerous plant species that one would be able to find in Hawaii. These are undoubtedly striking and would leave a great impression on any visitor.

you requested, I have specified information needed for our wedding. I have taken ideas and information from your website and hyperlinks. Will you please update our website with the information? I have also attached a document with pictures, ideas, and concepts to help illustrate what I’d like for our wedding. Thanks so much for your help!

I have one other picture to forward to you for the idea of the table with flower arrangement. Rather than for signing though, I’d like to provide a pitcher of lemonade or tropical punch for the guests.

I would also like to find out answers on the following extras/questions too:

• Can I reserve a trolley that would travel to Kailua and back?
• The trolley is an open air mobile will go to that side of the island we also have large excursion limo trucks that will hold up to 24 people.

I able to adjust the package inclusions at all (i.e. remove the limo)?

**I would like a bamboo arch with turquoise, light green, and white fabric. (I really like the arch in Natasha and Robert's wedding)

**Maybe a couple of small lava rocks can sit at the beginning of the aisle with some sea shells around it and some flowers?

**I would like to request a Hawaiian minister

**For the flowers:

--Brides bouquet --> mixture of plumerias, mostly pink
--Bridesmaid bouquet (I only have 1 bridesmaid) -->smaller version of mine

--1 Grooms lei --> Maile lei (the one traditionally worn by groom)
--1 Brides lei --> i'm not sure what's it's called, just one that is white and skinny
--2 Mothers leis --> white ginger leis
--2 Fathers leis --> not sure the name of it, it has small green leaves and kukui nuts
--1 Best Mans lei --> white orchid tea leaf
--1 Bridesmaids lei --> white orchid

**For the cake... 2 tiers with white frosting, 2 flavors - 1 with strawberries and cream and 1 with hawaiian coconut. Maybe just some pink plumerias on and around the cake.

**We would like to incorporate a lei ceremony for the parents. We also want to do a sand ceremony with just the bride & groom.


Ok... here are my ideas. I am very open to suggestions. I have been on your website for hours and hours trying to figure out what I like. Please let me know if there is anything thing else you need. Also, do I need to obtain an permit to have the wedding on the beach? We still want to have the ceremony on Makapuu Beach.

Thank you sooooo much!!!

Aloha! My name is Tami and I am very interested in having Aloha Island Weddings assist in coordinating my wedding. I live in Illinois but visited Honolulu 2 years ago with my now fiance, Albert and we fell in love with the sights and people and we have chosen to get married there on August 30, 2008. Albert has family there and I think it would be so amazing to have a Hawaiian wedding. I have emailed twice before and left a voice message and have not received a response. I would love to hear that you could help plan our special day! Please respond either way. Thank you very much!

I hope you got the email I sent with my ideas for the wedding. I have a couple of more questions.
How many people can fit in the limo that will take us to the ceremony? Is it possible to get another limo or some form of transportation for some of the guests? There will be a total of 35 guests not including bride and groom. But I'm only expecting a maximum of 15 of the guests to need transportation to the ceremony site. Also, if the wedding starts at 2pm, what time do you think we will leave the hotel? That's all I can think of now :) We will flying in in the afternoon. Do you want to meet that day? Thanks sooo much!

The wedding setup used the theme of redish orange magenta and bright Hawaiian flowers
Before the beginning of the wedding aisle Marieka wanted to have the Hawaiian Tiki Lono – who is a Ancient Tiki Statue of Fertility and Peace was chosen by
Marieka and Raphael Miller to signify their love for Hawaiian culture and its place in their heart . In the mythic Hawaiian stories, Lono brings forth abundance and prosperity hence he is connected with music and agriculture for example the sounds of nature { the ocean the birds the wind and the fire are part of Lono's personality} .... it is said that Lono came to Hawaii riding a rainbow laughing as he slide down to the Hawaiian islands. In agricultuer such as the planting Taro {a main staple in the local diet} he was considered the element that brought forth the rain from the sky which by the way is the Hawaiian word Wai. Lono also embodies love and is an important part of the peaceful season known as Makahiki.
