Ihilani Resort Ko Olina Wedding

Eric, a Canadian, met Sarah, an Aussie, when he took a job in Melbourne. They had a destination wedding at the Ihilani Resort in Ko Olina, Oahu. Around 100 guests flew in from all over the world to celebrate with this beautiful couple. The groom got ready at the nearby Beach Villas at Ko Olina while the bride and bridesmaids got ready at the Ihilani Resort. The ceremony was held at the Ihilani Gazebo and the reception was in the Lurline Room. Congratulations to Eric and Sarah!

Destination Wedding on Kailua Beach: Michael & Eri

This gorgeous bride and good-looking groom from Japan got married on an unusually windy overcast day in Kailua, Oahu, but the sun came out in time for their ceremony - hooray! It was a sweet, heartfelt bilingual ceremony full of happy tears. The couple took some sand from Kailua Beach with them in two small vials that they wore around their necks. Congratulations Michael and Eri! We wish you a very happy life together.

Ke Iki Beach Wedding, Oahu: Mark & Morgan

Mark and Morgan, an ocean-loving couple, had a destination wedding on beautiful Ke Iki Beach on the North Shore of Oahu. Their friends and family rented all the units at the oceanfront Ke Iki Beach Bungalows, where the reception was held. The weather gods were kind to this surfer-diver couple as the gale force winds died down and rainclouds gave way to a beautiful sunset during the ceremony officiated by Rev. William Webb (808-625-9692). The outdoor reception was a fun affair with a scrumptious Indonesian buffet catered by Annie of Baik Catering (808-393-1513, baikcatering@hotmail.com). Congratulations to Mark and Morgan!
