Back on the Mainland

Aloha!
Remember the technical difficulties I had when I started my vacation? Well, they are back - with a vengeance! The nifty trick I tried so that I could access my computer remotely didn't work AND now it seems to have completely wiped my hard drive. I will be at the Genius Bar tomorrow at 4:15pm praying they can save my baby. Wish me luck! Until then I will only have my trusty iPad for internet access and sad but true probably no post until late tomorrow...in the meantime, think good thoughts for me!

Flower Friday - Flower Girls - Floral and Event Decor in Hawaii

Happy Friday! Another quickie today! As much as I love you all, my vacation is close to ending - which is so very sad! So before I hit the sand today, I wanted to tell you about an amazing floral and decor company based in Honolulu, Hawaii. Flower Girls create simply the most amazing bouquets I have seen in a long time! They can lean toward a tropical vibe, or they even do amazing things with more traditional flowers. You must take a peek at their site - their gallery is so much fun to explore and then have a million pretty pictures.

Here are a few of my favs that I grabbed off the web!

Have a great weekend!

Dainty Details - Hawaiian Wedding - The Sand Ceremony

Good morning all! It's another beautiful Hawaiian sunrise from our little lanai this morning. If you know me, I am actually not one to love the sunrises, I typically enjoy the sunsets. However, trying to explain that to an almost 8 month old on a 3 hour time change does not work out well. So, I have taken to enjoying the sunrise and lots and lots and lots of coffee.

I wanted to share another tropical wedding. Again, Events by Evonne, does an amazing job creating a picture perfect setting for this adorable couple. I am loving the sand ceremony the two of them are performing in the first photo. Such a sweet way to create a reminder of the blending of two families from the wedding day. I have had a few brides add this into their ceremony, and they all have a special place in their homes for their pretty vases of mixed sand. Also, sand isn't the only option, I have seen it done with water, dirt when planting a tree, and one of my favorites, wine!

You can check out the rest of the gorgeous photos here over on Style Me Pretty.

Are there any other things you have heard that brides and grooms use to recognize the significance of blending two families? Do share!

Enjoy the rest of your day and chat with you Friday!

Aloha! Tropical Wedding Details

Okay! Hubby's laptop to the rescue! I'm sure most of you are wondering what we are doing with so many tech connections to the real world while on vacation but truth is - heaven to me is lying on a beach, drink in hand, surfing the net and looking all of my favorite blogs, hence the need for the tech gear and the hi-speed connection.

In honor of our trip, I wanted to do a quick post today about a sweet shoot that Nancy Liu Chin, Events by Evonne and many more fab vendors did in Maui. It was posted on Green Wedding Shoes a while back, and you can click here to see more beautiful photos from this shoot.



Loving the bright colors and the amazing details.
Enjoy and Aloha!

Vacationing with Technical Difficulties

Hi all! I was attempting to post this week from the beaches of Maui but apparently the nifty remote log in to the iPad is not working as I had hoped (even though it worked perfectly fine at home - grrrrr!) Forgive me but Monday's post may be a smidge late!

In the meantime, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We spent it at Elliston Vineyards in Livermore Wine Country helping Evonne and Chris tie the knot! We all had a blast and it was such a fun day! Pictures coming soon!

Fav Finds + Flower Friday: Valley Flora - Modern Wrist Corsage

Hi gang! We have lots to do this weekend, so this post will be short and sweet! I wanted to share this fab modern take on a wrist corsage from Valley Flora. I am not a fan of pin on corsages as they tend to ruin dresses, hang funny, and look not so great after lots of hugs. The floral bracelet (image on the right) is a sweet way to honor someone without the pinning drama! And how dainty are the mini succulents!

Here are my favs from the 'net. Enjoy!

So many details to love, this wedding is a must see!
