Yvonne & Bill wanted a very vintage Hawaiian feel to their day so there was no better place than the Sugarhouse in Hailiimaile. It once was part of the Sugar Plantation and served as the manager’s house. Still today, you have to drive through a sugar cane field to find the gem. With beautiful and mature tropical trees and a distant oceanview, the home is perfect for those couples wanted to experience true Hawaii.
 
Guests were greeted with Passion Guava juice and fresh cut pineapple, while listening to the sounds of an ukulele. Vintage postcards served as a guest book and the children husked coconuts as a form of entertainment. The altar was highlighted with an existing white arbor adorned with tropical foilage and blooms straight from the home and the aisle was lined with fragrant plumeria. Yvonne & Bill chose a religious ceremony with Hawaiian touches like the Lei Exchange and Sand Ceremony.
 
Following the ceremony, ladies grabbed parasols and guests enjoy sunset during the cocktail hour. After the sun went down everyone heading into the home, for an intimate dinner for 20. The dinner was a four course menu of comfort foods accented with pacific rim flavors and for dessert guests had the choice of Kona coffee cake with macadamia nuts and chocolate chips, or Traditional wedding cake with a passionfruit filling. At the end of the night, Yvonne surprised Bill with his favorite dessert, good old fashioned apple pie. The couple chatted, laughed and at the end of the night were serenaded by a Hawaiian vocalist and Polynesian dancers in traditional costume.

Loving The Leah!

We got a ton of inquires about the Jennifer Beher post  and how much they loved her amazing work! Well we discovered another talented lady creating stunning pieces. Leah C creates hand crafted  wedding accessories. 

Most of us no longer wear dresses handed down from our Mothers or Grandmothers, but just think how lovely would it be to pass down one of these amazing accessories. Your veil or hair piece can become an heirloom passed down through generations and worn by your daughter or granddaughter.
