Oahu Wedding at 53 By the Sea:
Cristina + Jeff

Aloha! On this rainy, dreary day let’s bask in the Hawaiin sun for a bit. Cristina and Jeff both grew up on Oahu and live there now. Can you imagine? Being surrounded by palm trees and turquoise waters every day? Growing up and having that in your backyard? Oh, it was so much fun to photograph here and get to spend so much time with them and their sweet, sweet family. The celebration started with an Aloha party to welcome all of the out-of-town guests and then followed with a rehearsal dinner the next night. Friday everyone took a break from mai tai’s and decadent food to relax (by floating on inflatable pizza slices) and then Saturday was the big day. We loved having so much time on the island with everyone. This post is from Cristina and Jeff’s wedding, but check back for the Aloha party and rehearsal photos, too. Our sincerest congratulations to Cristina and Jeff and their families. Mahalo for making us feel right at home.
