Our Past Weddings...

Aloha and welcome to our Recent Wedding Page, or what I like to call it, my company blog. This is where I get to write about my most recent weddings. I'll post as often as I can about each wedding, and a little off-topic wedding blogs as well (Just to keep it interesting). Couples have told me that they love this part of my site the best as they tend to get to know about me and my company more from my postings. Don't forget to call us if you're interested in our services at 1-800-557-1310 or email us at info@dreamweddingshawaii.com

Mike and Donna Marks

April 22, 2006
Kawela Bay - North Shore Hawaii

So this is the guy who I was talking about. The guy who actually had a shot to play in the NFL but blew out his knee and then became a regular joe like me. His name, Mike Marcs, and that's his beautiful wife Donna. Mike and Donna are a great couple and share a very unique chemistry together, even though by first glance they are complete opposites. Mike is pretty tall, she's a head shorter than him. But together, they compliment each other very very well.

Just as a side note. After marrying over 300 wedding couples in the last couple of years, I have developed a "sixth sense" or a "marriage barometer" to put it bluntly. Yes, I think I can actually tell if a couple will stay together forever, or...if I will see one of them again. Mike and Donna, I'm happy to say...will stay together. If they can keep laughing together, for the rest of their lives, hey...that's 99% of the picture right there. I believe the bible describes what love is the best when it says "love is blind, love keeps no record of wrongs..etc..etc.." basically its saying that love is commitment, not an emotion. And while you may experience the emotions of happiness, sorrow, and sometimes anger throughout a relationsihp, emotions will always come and go. Love should never come and go.

Now you're probably wondering, have I ever married a client, more than once. Yes I have, in fact, I married a client 4 times in the past three years. You know who you are, Mr...so and so. Stay married, don't call me if you need us again, we're not accepting anymore business from you beacuse you need to stay married this time! Regarding Mike and Donna, I don't think I'll ever see them again, as a client, and of course, that's a very good thing.


The abandoned building shot...

I really do enjoy my job as the wedding guy, but whenever I always get to talk a little about football on the job, it's always a little added bonus to me. But the really cool thing about Mike is that he actually bought me an authentic Donovan Mcnabb Jersey! Which I do wear around often, especially on Sundays.


I really like this shot...

Now Mike and Donna tied the knot at Kawela Bay, or as I like to call it, The Secret Cove at Turtle Bay. There are a lot of photographic opportunities there. Unfortunately, this summer, we had a huge summer swell, and guess what..the beach that was once about 20 to 30 yards in width shrunk to about 3 feet in width!!! Yes, it's practically gone. So since then we have moved all of our beach weddings on the North Shore either up to Sunset Beach or this beach that's just a skip and hop over from Kawela. I actually think it's still considered Kawela Beach. The pictures are still just as cool. And usually, if the couple wants, we hop over back to Kawela to shoot some shots next to the abandoned building and those banyon trees. Kawela Beach by the way has gotten approval to be developed. So it will no longer look like it once was. I'm all for a strong economy, but some things I think they should leave alone.

Well, I'm off to bed!!!
