Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Swanson

When Casey contacted me via Facebook to find a wedding coordinator in Maui we were both pleasantly surprised!  I, because, she was coming to Maui for her wedding and she, because, I am a wedding coordinator in Maui!  Casey and I grew up together (from the young age of 6!) and hadn't seen each other since high school!  My, how life has changed, for both of us!  :)  Congrats Casey and Bill!  Thank you for letting me be part of your special day!  Enjoy the honeymoon!

Congrats Stacey & Mark!

Stacey and Mark ROCKED the new Raj Pergolas at their Olowalu Plantation House wedding in September! Guests lounged on oversized white ottomans with silk pillows, were wowed by crystal chandeliers and enjoyed Maui's new chameleon chairs while dining under silk tents oceanfront! Congrats to the happy couple- you two were so much fun to work with and we're very happy for you! To many many years of bliss!

The Newest Couture Baby!

We're back! We took at little bit of a break after the arrival of the newest "Couture Babe", Dylan G! He graced Maui with his presence on October 3, 2010 weighing 8 lbs. 8 oz. and measuring 22 inches tall. Thanks to all of our clients and vendors who gave us a little breathing room to get back in the swing of things. We are so excited to FINALLY have him here and SOOOOO excited to get back to planning the most stylish and fabulous events of 2010/11!!!

A big mahalo to Sandra and Dmitri of Dmitri Photography for the pics! They are amazing!!! Check out their website and blog at: http://dmitriphotography.com/

A Surprise Wedding!

Last weekend was a first for me (it reminded me of Ian Ziering and Linsay Price's wedding on 90210 from waaaayyyy back in the day)- a surprise wedding! Joanne and Dutch surprised all of their guests at an intimate wedding (all the guests thought it was their daughter's reconciliation dinner) at a lush private Taro Farm in Wailuku. Most of the guests figured it out when they saw the officiant and the decor, the brides parents, however, were very surprised when they heard, during the opening prayer, "we are gathered here today to join this man and woman....". This is a wedding I will remember forever!
