Living in Honolulu, Hawaii, our team had humble beginnings in the wedding industry, starting our journey back in 2005. Since then, we've been refining our skills to perfect our craft. We feel fortunate to have had the honor of documenting some of the most memorable moments, bringing legends and storybooks to life. One favorite memory is planning a Surprise Engagement Proposal with a giant Marry Me sign spanning 42 feet across the beach. We find inspiration in the creativity of our clients and the abilities of our dream team to make the impossible, possible.
