Finally! Day of the wedding! And beautiful it was!
The wedding was outdoors on a cliff and overlooking the beautiful Kapalua beaches. It was slightly windy but nothing we could not handle. Guests were given disposable cameras to take photos of the wedding night from their own perspectives so that they bride and groom had something to look forward to later. The tables were arranged with fresh flowers, place settings/menus, and sandals as wedding favors! These sandals would come in handy at the end of the night. We were served tropical cocktails (and beer and wine) before the meal. During dinner, we had shrimp and scallop stuffed gyozas, caprese salad, filet mignon, and wedding cake and cheesecake for dessert!
Throughout the evening, we had a live musician who was singing all sorts of love songs while playing the guitar. He did some awesome covers of various songs. He even took requests! So, we requested "Pour Some Sugar On Me" by Def Leppard but for some reason he laughed... and only played a couple of chords.... after his break, he came back and played at least the chorus and sang, for us!
The bride and groom took their first dance as newly weds and after everyone was done eating and dancing, we all slipped our new flip flops on and went out and lit some wishing lanterns! It took lots of teamwork and effort to get these guys unraveled, lit, and floating in the air. I think everyone enjoyed this. This was a really cute idea. We also lit sparklers too but... my camera died!
All in all, a great wedding. Lots of fun. Very small and intimate group in a beautiful and tropical place.
I hope you enjoyed my Maui photos. Have a great Friday everyone!
