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
i really loved the colors she choose with the bright orange hibiscus as accents to the
magenta and turquoise

Hotel: staying at Waikiki Banyan

Arrival: flying in on the 20th of March (in the very early morning)
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?

Time: 12pm possible?

Guest: confirmed: Bride’s parents

Groom’s mom

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

(a 6th grader and a 9th 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!

I love to have the same pink bumpy flowers like the entrance,

with the thick green leaves that are used in the picture that is the 6th 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.

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..
