Seven years ago, on April 19, 2003, Ashley & Punahele Carnate tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony at the JW Marriott Ihilani Resort in Ko Olina. As the Master of Ceremonies for their Hawaii wedding, I helped them to create was a very elegant and fun celebration, just like the way they wanted it.
Fast forward to today: Ash & Pu are still happily married, still madly in love with each other, and have expanded their circle of love to include a beautiful son named Jeremiah.
In this day and age, it’s always nice to hear from clients whose marriages are going strong. In Ash & Pu’s case, seven years and one child later, their story is a GREAT example of what a successful marriage should be.
Happy Anniversary!
The Weekly Wedding Tip just went out, and it’s a good one. It talks about The Anniversary Surprise, an alternative to the traditional bouquet toss. Here in Hawaii, often brides invite more of their families to the wedding. And most of the time, their families are mostly married, leaving the bride with only a handful of unmarried women to toss the bouquet to. Instead of doing away with the traditional toss, why not give your audience a surprising twist? The Anniversary Surprise is such a twist.
