A destination wedding in Hawaii is pretty fabulous in and of itself but add in a whole celebratory weekend and this is not to be missed. To kick off festivities, the Bride and Groom hosted a welcome party complete with pineapple margaritas and live music (does it get any better!?). Captured by Joel Serrato, we have all the fun below – and more coming all day long. Don’t miss the engagement (live now on our Main Page!) and the rehearsal dinner and wedding later on today!
From the Bride… Michael and I were so excited to start the celebrations and to welcome our guests that we couldn’t even wait for the official welcome party. We had a welcome party before the welcome party and greeted every single shuttle as it arrived from the airport. When official festivities kicked off, we hosted all of our guests with a colorful welcome party starring pineapple margaritas and mai tai’s. All of our guests mingled to live music and amazing food prepared by Malibu Farms. We incorporated a number of playful details such as our custom cocktail napkins with the phrase, “Party Like A Pineapple” which really set the tone for a relaxed fun filled weekend. This was the perfect way to welcome everyone to Lana’i, spend quality time with our guests and celebrate the spirit of aloha.
