We'll, it was one week from the superbowl, and Hawaii was invaded by professional football players. They were everywhere: Waikiki, Ko'Olina, the North Shore...you name it. Everyone was in the football spirit, and it just so happened, so was our couple, Ken and Melanie Wiles. I always love a good conversation about football, and when Ken told me that he was the owner of the Mustard Seed sports Bar in Seattle, I knew it would be a good day.

The day's leading up to Melanie and Ken's wedding the weather started to pour like you wouldn't believe. Even on the day of their wedding, Waikiki to Ko'Olina was completely soaked. There wasn't any end to any storm cloud. To make things worse, the Ihilani, had closed down their property to NFL players so we couldn't access Lanikohuna, or as we like to call it "Secret Cove at Ko'Olina." I guess there were too many paparazzi around the Ihilani for the last few days. Thinking quickly, I recommended that we move their wedding down the coastline where we could hopefully find better weather.I picked the nearest coastline beach that would allow them to get back to their Paradise Luau. Our luck paid off. The weather was clear and the beach was great. I may think about doing weddings here a lot more often because of it's large wide open beaches.
One thing that made Melanie's wedding rather unique was her bouque, which inorporated her mother's bible.
