Four Seasons Maui Wedding | Monica & Daniel

The wedding of Monica & Daniel which took place at the Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea was simply perfect in every way. We arrived at Monica’s room while she was getting her hair and makeup done. The stunning gown and Manolo Blahnik shoes made wonderful photographs, as did the beautiful bouquet that the Four Seasons provided! Throughout the day, Monica’s vibrant smile and charming personality were heigtened.

Daniel was equally excited as he awaited his stunning bride. During their ceremony in the Plumeria Garden, the couple expressed so much love and happiness that I was deeply moved. It was amazing to see the support and love from their friends and family.

After the ceremony, Monica and Daniel snuck away with us for a photo session. We started in the luxiourous lobby and then made our way down to the beach. The sweet sunset light higlighted their love for one another and made for vivid imagery.  They were such a joy to photograph!

The happy couple joined their friends and family for an intimate dinner at Ferraro’s Restaurant. They cut their cake and enjoyed toasts and celebrated their new life together as husband and wife. Once again, the coordinators at the Four Seasons did such an fabulous job. Every detail of the ceremony and reception was beautiful!

Monica and Daniel — Congratulations on your marriage! I am so happy for the two of you.

Much thanks to Kim for all of her help!

Four Seasons Lana’i | Family Vacation

We had THE BEST Valentine’s Day weekend imaginable. We were also celebrating my Grandma Pearl’s 90th Birthday too. We stayed at Four Seasons Lanai at Manele Bay and also spent some time up at Koele Lodge.  I was blown away by the beauty of Lana’i!  It was wonderful just to relax with family and enjoy the weekend together.  We did a sunrise nature walk on Valentines Day morning followed by a delicious Brunch! The best part about it all was that the Four Seasons is so increbibly kid-friendly.  I loved how when we got to our dinner reservation they had a high-chair set up along with crayons and coloring paper, then the server brought out Kaimana’s food so quickly – what a treat to have such a smooth dining experience with our 2-year-old. Any parents with toddlers can probably relate :)  All in all, it was definitely one of the best weekends of my life…  I feel so grateful!  Here are some photos from our trip:

Four Seasons Maui Wedding | Carrie & Jonas

Carrie and Jonas along with family and friends traveled from Colorado to tie the knot on the Oceanfront Lawn at Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea. Carrie was such a gorgeous  bride with a calm and relaxed way about her.  When we arrived at the bride and bride’s maids’ hotel room, they were excitedly preparing for the day.  Jonas and the guys were such a fun bunch and we had a great time taking photos.

The ceremony was breathtakingly beautiful on the Oceanfront Lawn.  There was some rain earlier in the day, but as luck would have it, the weather cleared up for the ceremony and reception.  The skies were blue with a slight breeze.  Carrie’s brother officiated the wedding ceremony.  After the couple walked down the aisle, friends and family congratulated them with hugs.  The guests then enjoyed cocktails, while Carrie and Jonas slipped away with us for sunset photos.  Meanwhile, the amazing staff at the Four Seasons quickly turned the Oceanfront Lawn from a ceremony site to the the reception venue.

On the beach, Carrie and Jonas shared some really sweet moments, enjoying the the spectacular sunset.  Their love for each other was natural, beautiful, and pure. What a pleasure to capture that on camera!  They then joined their guests for cocktails, followed by a candlelit dinner served under the open sky.  All of the details of the wedding day were simply beautiful!  Avery Solmssen did a fantastic job on the flowers.  The coordinators at the Four Seasons seamlessly put together quite a stunning event.    After dinner, the couple cut their cake, danced and enjoyed toasts and laughs with their friends and family.

Carrie and Jonas – we are so happy to have had the privilege of working with you on your wedding day!  Congratulations!

Kim – thank you so much for your assistance!
