We love being a part of the Hawaii wedding business because we’re able to meet spectacular couples like Yvette & Leonard! Their love story is like something found between the pages of a children’s fable. When Leonard first laid eyes on Yvette, he knew she was “The One” … even though as an Elementary school student he’d only recently learned to count!
Originally from the Philippines, the two grew up and eventually went their separate ways. Years later, by sheer fate (and the help of Facebook), they both found each other on the same Hawaiian island – 8,763 km away from their hometown! After reconnecting, their puppy-love blossomed into true love– and like all great children’s fables, there had to be a wedding…
Gracing the red carpet, Yvette looked exquisite in an off-the-shoulder princess gown. The sunlight set her hair aglow with cherry and caramel highlights, framed by an ivory flower crown. And the colorful blooms of our Anuenue bouquet perfectly complemented Leonard’s sleek tie choice.
As the two stood in front of the gazebo, Reverend Peter Dagupion officiated their marriage. And in the midst of tender vows and the sacred “I do,” there was hardly a dry eye on the terrace.
Following the ceremony, the couple shared their first embraces as husband and wife with the Northshore in the backdrop. With a beautiful pair of lovebirds like these two, capturing endearing wedding photos is effortless.
Thank you, Yvette & Leonard, for choosing Simple Maui Wedding to plan your very special day. Wishing you all the magic in the years ahead!
