A Memorable Fancy
Mike and Sarah’s wedding was just right. Not too formal, not too casual, just enough tradition but with a contemporary flare. The table was set with antique china, yet the linens were all whimsically mismatched to give the finery a subtle bohemian … Continue reading A Memorable Fancy

Sweetgrass and Tobacco
Sweetgrass and Tobacco. As the intoxicating scent from the ritual smudging, drifts on the summer breeze, we are placed in a different state of mind. We are brought into a deeper part of ourselves. And as we focus on what is happening, the scent brings memories, awakens the soul … Continue reading Sweetgrass and Tobacco

This is Love.
“This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.” ― Rumi Continue reading This is Love.

Life is but a dream…
I had to pull over twice on my way to meet Alicia and Ryan, not because I was lost, but because the long winding road to their cottage was so beautiful with the afternoon sun breaking through. After a glass of my favourite … Continue reading Life is but a dream…

Big Island Wedding | Hilton Waikaloa Village Hotel

Kristin & Frank Kahana, Maui

A year in reflection…
2012 was a busy year for Maui Maka! With a business that is outgrowing its britches as quickly as we can acquire new ones, it has often felt as if we will never catch up with ourselves. We had grandeur ideas of a “one-foul-swoop-end-of-the-year” post, that incorporated everything we had seen in 2012… but as most new year’s resolutions go… that was a bit ambitious. Instead, with a full plate of destination weddings booked for 2013, I would like to take a moment – and some photos – to appreciate how lucky we are to be able to facilitate … Continue reading A year in reflection…

Toronto Farm Wedding | Natalie and Jeff
Natalie and Jeff had a clear vision in mind. They wanted the day to be a personal reflection of themselves, they wanted friends and family to feel welcome and to use the day to not only celebrate the marriage of Natalie and Jeff, but for guests to recognize and celebrate the love in their own lives. Held on their private family farm in Ontario on Thanksgiving weekend, the atmosphere was intimate, elegant and inviting, with vintage details, farm-to-table cuisine, and sublte festive fall elements. Their day was full of love, joy, laughter and unforgettable moments. Photography: Rebecca Amber Photography with Maui … Continue reading Toronto Farm Wedding | Natalie and Jeff

Balinese Blessings and Vows. Tim and Seewah’s Wedding Ceremony

the whole is greater than the sum of its parts – aristotle
Seewah is the part that I knew. She is free spirited and special like no other. In the eloquent words of her maid of honor… “Seewah is hands down, the most unabashedly stoked, human being I know.” She is gracefully stunning on every level and shines unfalteringly from the inside out. Though we have floated in and out of each other’s lives over the last decade, Seewah is love at first sight and a forever friend. The last time I saw her was four years ago and in Bali. We were staying in a villa (five minutes from where she … Continue reading the whole is greater than the sum of its parts – aristotle
