Beautiful Ladies

Over the past week or so, I've been in touch with a potential makeup artist for the wedding. Jessica Hoffman is a friend of my friend/coworker/model/socialite, Brigitte Patton. She normally doesn't book weddings, but instead, she works with models/actors for magazines, fashion shows, etc. She's worked with models from the top model firms, Daniel Dae Kim & Naveen Andrews (Lost) and recently, Dr. Dre & Eminem (source: Ms. Patton). Jessica herself has also been featured in Modern Luxury Hawaii magazine.

I'm really excited and am very lucky to get a chance to work with her. She is someone I know is good at what she does! If you're interested in checking out her work, please visit: http://makeupmemoirs.blogspot.com/.

Kane (Men)

Again, to keep the Hawaiian/casual theme... we'd like to put the men in some aloha wear. Hawaiian Moon has reasonably-priced shirts that both the groomsmen, and the ringbearer could wear for the ceremony. We'd finish off the outfit with khakis and slipahs (aka... flipflops). Below is the shirt that I like best. The color isn't bold, yet, it still screams "ALOHA!" haha.

The Groom

Don't worry, I didn't forget Edwin! Since we're going to keep everyone slightly casual, we were thinking that'd we'd dress him in traditional Wedding Alohawear. Below are some ideas for his attire- keep in mind that he will have the final say!

Lei'd

Of course, no Hawaiian wedding would be complete without the traditional "Lei Exchange". Below are the leis that we want to get for me and Ed...



The groomsmen in the party will also be getting leis, which will be more simple. And our parents will also get leis during the ceremony... yet to be determined.
