Aloha,
How are you guys doing? This e-mail is from myself and Gerardo who were married on Waimanalo Beach on June 15th of this year. This mail is sort of long overdue. I meant to write to say MAHALO, but time flies, and I tend to procrastinate and oh well, here we go now.
First and the foremost, let me start off by saying THANK YOU SO MUCH for making our wedding beautiful and stress-free. In the planning stage, I mostly dealt with your office manager Chrissy. She was very nice, helpful, resourceful and approachable. At the same time she was professional and to the point which I liked a lot. THUMBS UP, Chrissy!
The beach location Angel’s Bay was WONDERFUL. I especially enjoyed the fact that it is not crowded and we were not being ogled by tons of bystanders, tourists and passerby’s during or after our ceremony.
We stayed just down the street from you at the B&B cottage you recommended. It was very convenient and comfortable and the accommodation itself was just perfect. I’d definitely recommend it to others. THUMBS UP, again on your recommendation and the pick of the B&B.
Next up, the photographer we worked with, Fernando, was PHENOMENAL. We reeeeaaaally enjoyed having him as our photo-man. He made us feel totally relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. He took his time and didn’t rush us one bit – even though it was a father’s day weekend… and I’m sure he was itching to get home and spend time with his family. I am sure he doesn’t get paid by the hour so he could’ve tried to rush it all and get it done and over with but he didn’t. He was great to work with. Furthermore, he was full of ideas and recommendations as to where to go out to eat, what to do, and things to see. Thanks to him, we had a beautiful lunch after our wedding at the Blue Water Café & Grill. Then, we had another graet meal at the best Thai food place food place on the north shore… and very inexpensive. TWO THUMBS UP for Fernando!
Our make-up artist, Wade, was really super nice too and did an excellent job, appropriate for the beach, nothing overdone.
MAHALO so much for everything. Have a wonderful day in paradise.
Warm thoughts and best wishes!
Take care,
Maya and Gerardo Tapia
