2025 Year-End Love Letter 💌
Wow, what a year!
2025 drifted in on gentle trade winds and wrapped us in vows, happy tears, and sandy dance floors. We still remember quiet hand squeezes before the doors opened, family and friends wiping happy tears in the pews, and the way sunset light found every veil. To every couple who let us steady your train, pin your lei, and cheer you to the aisle, mahalo nui loa.
You filled our days with joy and, yes, a little beach sand in the car, and we wouldn’t trade a grain of it.
Your stories set the beat, sunset “I do’s,” ballroom spins, backyard luaus, and all the sweet in-betweens. Every celebration felt like you: bright, heartfelt, and perfectly yours. As we look back on this year with full hearts, we’re already buzzing for what’s ahead in 2026. Let’s savor a few favorite moments, then peek at the plans we’re dreaming up for an even brighter year.
We got to celebrate 97 weddings this year!
Ninety-seven love stories, each with its own sparkle.
Big laughs, quiet happy tears, surprise rainbows, dance floors that refused to quit.
We’re so grateful we got to be there for it all, and we’re already excited for the stories we’ll help tell next year.
August came in hot: 15 beautiful celebrations, start to finish.
A joyful blur we’d relive in a heartbeat.
Favorite Kinds of Love This Year
Every wedding we’re invited into is pure magic to us.
Still, we’d love to spotlight a few standouts to spark ideas for your own big day.
A beautiful blend of island warmth and military tradition, filled with palm trees, happy tears, big smiles, and a love story celebrated in the most unforgettable way.

The Backstage Heroes
Our crew were there before sunrise and still smiling after the last lei was shared—moving fast, laughing through it all, rolling with rain plans, timeline tweaks, and every little curveball, and sending so much love to the creative partners who made every detail feel just right.
If you’re on the planning road, we’ve got you—step by step, smile by smile.
From all of us, mahalo nui for an unforgettable 2025.
Here’s to more love, laughter, and island sunsets in the year ahead.
Happy holidays—and see you at the aisle.
