| Anabelle and Christian had an intimate wedding with their closest family and friends at Loulu Palms estate. The most touching part of the day was when Christian's Mother honored her son with a lei prior to the ceremony and putting jewelry on Annabel. She was so proud of them both.

Ashlee and Aden's After Wedding Party
 |
| After their wedding reception Ashlee and Aden invited us to tag along with them to their after party at the Surfer bar in Turtle Bay. They partied all night with all of their friends and family and were entertained by a performance from "The Dan Band." If you don't know the Dan Band watch the Hang Over (first one), they're the band performing at the wedding reception. We don't normally get to party with our couples so this was definitely a treat for us. Photography & Blog // Lester Videography // Kyle |

Kathy and Derek Married!
Kathy and Derek Same-Day-Edit (Trump/Hale Koa, Waikiki) from Isle Media on Vimeo.
 |
| Kathy and Derek are one of the couples that strongly believed in us early on, booking us over a year and a half ago! The couple got ready at the Trump Hotel, where there was no shortage of funny moments and laughter :) The wedding took place at the Hale Koa Luau Gardens, where the couple, in the interests of simplicity, had one of the shortest ceremonies we've ever seen at a wedding lol. Kathy and Derek had a full house of guests at the reception, who were all able to look on at memorable moments, from the funny stories about Derek in high school, to the "cake feeding." Hehe. Congrats you two! -Reese (photography, blog) Kay & Lester (photography) -Kyle, Julius, Travis (videography) -Alan (SDE) -Zairrah, Meileen (makeup & hair) |

Berna and Mike Married!
 |
| What I loved the most about Berna and Mike's wedding was the fun that everyone had throughout the day. It was really heartfelt to see them in enjoyment and just being themselves. There were so many awesome moments where they kept on joking around it made their photos and Same Day Edit that much more great.

Charzelle and James Married!
 |
| Charzelle and James got married at Laie Temple with their friends and family waiting anxiously to see these to come out of their sealing ceremony. There is a first time for everything; considering that not just anyone is allowed into a Mormon Sealing Ceremony, it was really cool to be outside and in anticipation of seeing Charzelle and James exit the temple as husband and wife with everyone that came. In a different way of welcoming a couple into their new chapter in life together. That's something that will always stay with me. Photography & Blog // Lester Videography // Alan |

Kana and Chihiro's Post Wedding Photo Shoot!
It was a great pleasure to work with this fun-loving couple, Kana and Chihiro from Tokyo! After their wedding day, we decided to go to Kailua and have a beach and town-themed photo shoot. One of the props they wanted to use were Supreme's water guns! In between romantic intimate photos, I asked them to pick up the water guns, and fight REAL hard! Both Kana and Chiriro were such action stars! They shoot, dodge, tumble on the sand, and the person who won the fight was… KANA! Later on we went to the first skateboarding shop in Hawaii - called 808 Skate per Chihiro's request. Check out their wedding photo blog (Click Here) to see his skateboarding tricks too!
Congratulations!

綺麗なビーチでの撮影がしたい！ということで、結婚式の翌日にロケーション撮影に行ってきました。朝の東海岸のビーチは海の色がとても綺麗で、この日もとてもいいお天気に恵まれました：）色々なフォトプロップをお持ちいただいたのですが、私のお気に入りはSupremeの水鉄砲！思いっきり戦ってもらいました（笑）撃って、撃って、避けて、撃って、転がって…勝者は花嫁のKanaさん：）アクティブなお二人との撮影はとても楽しかったです。
ビーチの後は、スケボーが好きなChihiroさんのリクエストで、ハワイのスケボー第一店舗だという808 Skateに言ってきました。中には沢山の種類のスケボーが勢揃い。お二人らしい、カラフルな写真になりました。
親友でもあり、夫婦でもあり、そんな仲良しなお二人。これからもお幸せに！

Jaz and Nick Married
 |
| Jaz and Nick had an intimate wedding ceremony at Kakaako with their friends and family. It was Basketball themed where everyone wore NBA themed jerseys. Jazz and Nick even wore custom jerseys with their names and had specially made Jordan's that made me want to go out and buy a pair. The reception that followed took place at Restaurant Suntory where everyone enjoyed Teppanyaki, watching Chefs cook their food before it was served to them.

Charity and Brad Married! (Moli'i Gardens, Kaneohe)
When people say we live on a small island, it really is true! This was one of the rare occasions where I happen to know every single person in the bridal party, EXCEPT Brad and Charity! It does sure help when you do have some rapport already with the people that you will be spending the entire day with. But what was memorable was the stormy skies and dark clouds that loomed rather ominously overhead. Scary! It rained....and it poured! But right when the ceremony was about to begin the clouds miraculously parted and the rained stopped (and then it started up again once the ceremony was over, lol). But at least we had a dry ceremony!
Congratulations Charity and Brad!

Jane and Harold Married !! // (Paradise Cove, Koolina)
We highly encourage our couples to loosen up on the big day. Sometimes, if may require a little alcoholic influence, in which we say go for it! Jane and Harold sure didn't hold back on that one (LOL). My favorite line during their personalized vow exchange was, "I am yours, and you are MINE." Written by Harold #likeaboss! They had a couples Tahitian duet together towards the peak of the night which made the audience roar with laughter and applause. What a great day and night!
Congratulations Jane and Harold!

Leilani and Miles Married!
 |
| Seeing Leilani and Miles get married was an event to behold. It was a reunion of sorts as many old friends from my High school days gathered together to celebrate and watch them cross over into their life together. In a way this made me feel like my own sister was getting married. Photography & Blog // Lester Videography // Michael |

Chanel and Enoka Married! (Hale Koa, Waikiki)
Chanel and Enoka go wayyyyy back to high school days when Enoka would court Chanel by escorting her to and from all of her classes. It seemed as though no time had passed as Enoka watched Chanel walk down the ceremony isle with the same eyes that quickly watered up at first sight of her in that beautiful wedding dress. This was a long time coming for these two and we were so happy to be part of it.
Congratulations to Chanel and Enoka!

Beth and Kyle Married! (Hale Koa, Waikiki)
It's very humbling when a couple is willing to book us 18 months before their wedding...well this is exactly what Beth and Kyle did :) Their engagement shoot was very memorable, and gave us a glimpse into how much fun these two are! Beth and Kyle's big day began at the Modern, where there was definitely no shortage of laughter :) Beth made special arrangements to do picture taking at a private estate in Kahala, where Hawaii Five O films some of their scenes! We were all pretty stoked, and the estate definitely made it easy for us to get some great formals. The couple exchanged their vows at Hale Koa, and it was pretty amazing to see them officially married, after nearly a year and a half of knowing them.
The reception was definitely the highlight of the wedding! From bubbles during the grand entrance, to the hilarious speeches (Kyle, you're a character lol), to the puppeteer reenactment of their engagement, everyone's stomachs hurt from so much laughter. Oh, and did we mention the crazy dancing at the end of the night?? ;)
Congrats you two!!

Amy and Gary: Formals and Reception!
 |
| Amy and Gary celebrated the Western side of their heritage by dressing up in formal wedding attire for their post-wedding photos! We took them around in downtown Honolulu, and gave them a chance to enjoy the beach, before heading off to the reception at Baci Bistro in Kailua. The festivities kicked off there, with lots of speeches, toasts, and of course, dancing :) -Reese (photography, blog) -Alan (videography) |

Amy and Gary: The Wedding Day!
 |
| It is always an honor when a couple chooses us to capture their wedding day, as they are essentially inviting us into their lives, and sharing some of the best moments in the company of their friends and family. In the case of Amy and Gary, this meant that we had to opportunity to experience the colorful traditions and customs of Indian culture! The couple blended traditional and western elements into their wedding, making for east-meets-west event that we definitely will never forget. With this being our first, all-out Indian wedding, we were pretty mesmerized by all the details, from Amy's glittering pink dress and jewelry, to Gary's Kirpan, a ceremonial sword, and his turban. The ceremony was also eye opening for us, whether it was Amy being escorted around the sacred text by her brother and father, or the whole audience singing to traditional Indian music. There's just so much to say about this wedding, so I'll narrate little by little throughout the post...thanks for reading! -Reese (photography, blog) // Lester (photography) -Alan & Kyle (videography) |

Natasha and Ethan Married! (Hyatt Regency, Waikiki)
 |
| Natasha and Ethan each had their moments to shine during their wedding! During the ceremony, Ethan wrote his vows in Hawaiian, and the translation drew quite an emotional reaction from Natasha. At the reception, Natasha wowed everyone with her singing that she performed for Ethan :) All the speeches at the reception really showed how much these two are loved by their family and friends, and the cake cut had an...interesting ending lol.

Luz-Ann and Chris Married!
We met Luz-Ann and Chris at Maui Expo at the first time back in early 2012. It was great to fly over to Maui, and shoot across the island all day - started from the getting ready in Wailua, to the ceremony at the Kamehameha Gold Club, and finally ending with the reception at Maui Beach Hotel. Their bridal party was full of energy throughout the day, and they shared a lot of laughs, especially at the reception! The couple had this newly-wed quiz game which the wives and husbands had to match their answers for personal questions - all of the contestants and the guests learned a lot about the newly-wed's personalities and memorable stories :-)
Congratulations Luz-Ann and Chris!

Maria and Brandon Married!
 |
| To start things off, Brandon and Maria booked the Ihilani Resort for their wedding for mainly one reason: the sunset. Here in Hawaii, we are blessed with nice sunsets, but they are often hit or miss, depending on the weather. It's because of this that we were extremely stoked that after the ceremony, the couple was treated to easily the best sunset anyone of us has ever seen at the Ihilani! The little details throughout the day added lots of depth to the wedding. Brandon wore a Bazinga shirt, as a homage to one of Maria's favorite phrases. The couple chose their wedding date (July 6th) to coincide with Brandon's parents' anniversary, who they surprised at the reception with a chance to dance together on the dance floor. Pictures of Maria and Brandon's grandparents who passed away allowed for them to be present in spirit. Brandon and Maria's crazy awesome wedding party made formals a blast, from staging a football stand-off, to clamoring over the rocks for group shots. Throw in the awesome sunset, and a reception full of laughter and you got yourself a pretty cool wedding :) Congratulations you two! -Reese (photography, blog) // Kay (photography) -Jack & Trevor (videography) -Zairrah & Meileen (hair/makeup) |

Cassie and Tommy Married!
 |
| Cassie and Tommy decided to have their destination wedding out on the North Shore, at Dillingham Ranch, a brand new venue for us! This wedding really showed us just how much family love can overcome any kind of physical distance. On the day of, Cassie received a special package in the mail from her grandmother. It had a pair of handkerchiefs and a ring that she had at her wedding, and wanted to pass it on to Cassie. Let's just say there were a lot of tears! Also, Cassie's sister was unable to fly down to Hawaii for the wedding, so she tuned in via skype on a laptop to watch her sister get married :) Thank you Cassie and Tommy for letting us be a part of your special day...congratulations! -Reese (photography, blog) // Kay (photography) -Jack (videography) -Meileen (hair/makeup) |
