~I’m sorry we keep missing each other on the phone! As far as the cake options, color theme, and finalizing the type of wedding aisle/arch setup, I will look on the website and tell you what colors I like (from other couple’s wedding pages). Also, I’ll check out the cake options and tell you what flavors/colors/flowers right? Hopefully for most of these decisions, I can just look on your website and pick and choose combinations from previous couple’s weddings.  Yes you may pick and choose different colors or themes that you want for your design,,,, i will also bring samples of material and colors when we meet in Hawaii...

http://www.alohaislandweddings.com/cakes2.htm cake flavors and option may be found here...
You may choose two different flavorts if you want the top layer and botto
m..........


The remaining balance due at coordination meeting should be?

       Let me price in the food and extra limo and will get back to you.

Regarding the limo at $85 an additional hour, would you be able to get us another 10-seater limo for $85/hour as well? We (bride/groom) are providing transportation to at least 20 people (including us), it would be absolutely great if we could get two limos from you!! I have been searching the internet at various limo and mini-coach rentals in Oahu and I have not had any luck as far as finding what I’m looking for! Please tell me you have another limo for us!!

Sure I would prefer to be responsible for the limo's because than I have more control over the timing, and i can relay on my people......
I will get you a 12 passenger limo for 85 an hour is  that price ok..................

Some more questions:

~can we keep the shell for the conch blowing ceremony? That one is very special to me because I have used it at hundreds
of  weddings,,, great questions though I will look into buying you a conch shell I think they run about $40. Is that ok?????

~ the sand colors for sand ceremony is lime green and aqua blue..   Ok for sand colors im able to get the primary blue and green

~I would like the max beach setup of 25 chairs, the remainder is part of wedding party ...  Ok noted

~I have seen the small circular signing tables, I would like the larger rectangular tables to accommodate signing as well as ceremony favors, and tray of food.  

Ok two different table do you like the white wicker round table or the carved wooden one???

the tray of foods I had in mind are just of various cut-up fruit (maybe small finger sandwiches as well??).

I don’t mind if these items were found at Safeway or the like … 

Would you please also suggest a hair/make-up stylist to go on location (at my hotel) the morning of to do my hair/makeup and possibly my bridesmaids? Anyone you know that might be really good at a decent price? Thanks!

Everything is good! hope the weather over there is great… as long as I’m writing, here are a couple more items:

  1. can we have at least 3 kukui necklaces for the groomsmen to wear?
  2. can we get a maile lei for Kevin to wear?
  3. I have chosen the colors for the bridesmaid and bridal flowers. I will send later, I don’t have the photos with me at the moment
  4. for the sand ceremony: colors I would like yellow and blue (because together they make green and I like green!)
  5. for the finger foods: a tray of fruit, a tray of finger sandwiches and bottled water would be just fine.
  6. wedding cake flavors I have finalized to be pineapple and coconut, Kevin had wanted these flavors! The cake theme is seashells,
    I have seen on the cake page a sample. Is a two tier cake enough so everyone has a piece?
  7. I just want to confirm that the color theme is lime green and dark purple, with bamboo arch and ribbon to go in ground
  8. can we set up the sand bottle wedding favors on one of the two tables?
  9. to let you know there will be 3 Seven-passenger vans, 1 Fifteen passenger van , the Limo and a separate car to going Caravan to the beach and then to the Aloha Tower.
  10. Here’s one of my bridal photo session.
  11. did I ever send you the pix of my bridesmaids/groomsmen?
