Serina wins the award for most laid back bride.  Of course, she is also the only bride that had a tsunami warning take over the state the night before her wedding!  I was so concerned for her that night and when I checked in with her the next day…she said she wasn’t worried.  She was going to get married no matter what.  Such a great attitude!   Luckily the tsunami was nothing to worry about and their wedding went off without a hitch (largely thanks to their awesome coordinator, Cherise)!  Know what else a tsunami gives us? One amazing sunset!!

Crayton and Vanessa (and their friends/family) came all the way from So. California to get married on the beautiful island of Maui.  The weather just couldn’t have been more perfect!  Their first look was one of the sweetest I have witnessed and their bridal party was so nice and willing to help out any way they could!  Cherise from The Perfect Maui Wedding made sure the day ran so smoothly and the talented Della of Dellables created one of my favorite bouquets to date!  At the end of the night, there were a few cases of Kona beer left over so I got to take one home to enjoy on my extended week in Maui with Jason!  Thanks you guys!  Aloha!

Vanessa and Crayton were so much fun to spend time with and they were up for anything!  Even trekking through spider laden weeds!  Poor Vanessa HATES spiders (I do too!)  We never heard any complaints though!  We shot their Trash the Dress session two days prior to their actual wedding (different dress) and ran all over the west side of Maui for photos.  We ended the session soaking wet and under water! 🙂

Karen and Albert had one of the most International weddings I have ever done!  The guests were from China, England and the US!  Well, only Albert is originally from the the US.   Such a fun eclectic group!  They were married at the gorgeous Olowalu Plantation House and had their reception at the Old Lahaina Luau.  We had some time before the luau began so we took a few hours for photos of the lovebirds!

We stopped by their hotel, Hanoa Kai

At the Luau, Karen changed in to a beautiful pink dress!
