the wedding

Happy Thanksgiving Eve!

So continuing on from yesterday

Sunday started out a little cloudy once again, but by the time we got ready to go, the sky’s were clear and perfect for an outdoor evening wedding.

Once we got to the Wailea golf resort we were carted up to the gold course where the ceremony was taking place.

The background was gorgeous! I love it when the water has that reflection look to it.

And how fun is their program + color coordinated fan? There were blue fans too!

The temperature was perfect so there was no need to use the fans, but they made for great decoration pieces!

Here’s the my cousin, the groom, all ready and waiting for his bride!

[How cool do the clouds in the sky look btw??]

The ceremony was short and very sweet.

Once the ceremony was over, pictures were taken atop the hill with family and friends. The first photo taken was with everyone at the wedding, which is over 40+ people, all lined up in one row while the photographer snaped the shot halfway down the hill. I’m curious to see how that photo turned out!

And then we headed down the hill to the clubhouse for appetizers and drinks on the terrace.

About an hour or so later we headed indoors where the reception/dinner was. Once we were all seated the groomsmen, bridesmaids, bride and groom danced their way in, to the tune of ‘marry me‘ like on glee! If you’ve ever seen the wedding episode where Finn’s mom and Kirk’s dad get married and all the bridesmaids/groomsmen dance down the aisle, that is exactly what they did.  So fun to watch!

Actually here’s a clip of if from glee if you want to see.

Glee – Marry Me

I failed at taking photos [once again], but the rest of the night was filled with good food and good music. And some fun songs like ‘Lucky by Jason Mraz‘ sung by the newlyweds themselves.

It was a really fun wedding and hard to leave Maui the next day to go back to my beach-less home in Texas.

But now I’m back and I’m now baking for Thanksgiving tomorrow! I’m SO ready to eat :)

If you live in the states, are you excited for Thanksgiving?
