Jamie + Pat | Neiman Marcus Mariposa Wedding Ala Moana Hawaii

Jamie and Pat’s wedding was a day full of glitz, glam, fashion and style. The day started at the Grand Waikikian Hotel with a few smiles, laughs, jokes and of course a few tears. The Hawaiian Islands were hit with some major lightning and thunderstorms the entire week prior to this wedding and in fact, they had forecasted wind and rain on Saturday. There were a lot of people praying for some decent weather, including the folks at Mariposa Restaurant in Ala Moana, since over 100 guests were to be seated on the balcony. When the big day finally rolled around… the rain stopped…the sun popped out and there was a beautiful hawaiian breeze. Perfect weather!

Jamie, a die hard Iolani Raider Alumni, decided to have her wedding ceremony on campus at the Iolani Chapel. Once vows were exchanged, everyone headed over to the wedding reception at Mariposa Restaurant, located on the 3rd floor of Neiman Marcus in Ala Moana Shopping Center. Jamie and Pat celebrated a fairly long engagement. You can see their engagement pics by clicking here. Congratulations Jamie and Pat, much happiness to you both.

Tricia + Erik | Wedding Photography | Honolulu, Hawaii

It was a warm and sunny day as Erik and the boys pulled up to Central Union Church in Honolulu on May 1st. Looking excited, he stepped out of the white limo, followed by his 2 good looking brothers and 3 ADORABLE little heartbreakers. OMG, those little boys were just too cute! Erik anxiously walked into the groom’s room and awaited his soon to be wife arrive. Shortly thereafter, Tricia shows up looking gorgeous as ever with the accompany of her “blue” entourage. Sister, Lila quickly tucked her baby sister in the bride’s room where she began to get ready for her big moment. Once settled in, Tricia was all smiles and you could feel the happiness she was feeling. Once it became official, the smiles and joy were everywhere. It was then off to the Hale Koa hotel in Waikiki for the wedding reception.

It was a beautiful day. The weather was gorgeous as Erik and Tricia became one. Oddly enough, the very next day the island was hit with major lightning and thunderstorms. In fact, there were a few funnel clouds that were present on the island, which resemble that of a tornado. Shortly after, the island was drenched with rain. It came down in truckloads. Massive, massive, massive rain. So, I’m so glad that Tricia and Erik were blessed with a beautiful day to start their lives together. You can see their engagement pics by clicking here.
