Nathan & Katie were another couple that we just fell in love with..... that seems to happen a lot.

Dane & Anise: A stellar event at the Haiku Mill

This wedding was something you'd see in a magazine--- matter of fact it was featured in Pacific Weddings magazine in a lovely spread. If you review our work often, you are familiar with the stunning wedding venue the Haiku Mill. In these photos however you will notice quite a transformation  from it's traditional glory into something new entirely. The event, designed by Pacific Weddings own editor Robyn I'aea, was truly grand from the flower girl tea party and the wine and cheese pairings during the cocktail hour down on through the evening with the live creme brulee station. Without further ado, Dane & Anise...

A Multi-cultural Wedding by Belle Destination Events: Haiku Mill

This was one of our favorite weddings of all time! This multi-cultural event was a melting pot of beauty, fun, love and laughter. Here is a snippet from Belle Destination Events:

To create the setting they envisioned, we set up plush Turkish rugs, tons of accent pillows, coffee tables, varied vintage decor pieces, side tables, and nick knacks, giving the Mill's lounge ares the feel of an exotic living room. The dining tables themselves were all unique and inviting, accenting different elements of glass, drift wood, overflowing arrangements of flowers and fruit, and candles, candles, candles!  Instead of mounting a temporary trellis, the oh-so talented Bella Bloom attached individual vines and blooms to the existing vines that crawled up the entry way to the Mill.  Instead of bringing in glassware for the accent arrangements, we utilized the weathered and moss-covered ceramic urns from the Mill itself, and filled them with an abundance of flowers, falling over the edges to add on over-grown affect.

Jennifer & Joe at the Haiku Mill

You may recognize these two from their engagement session a few posts back. This beautiful couple planned a destination wedding in Maui to celebrate their new life together. Their traditional ceremony was followed by a Chinese Tea Ceremony with the exchanging of tea, jewelry and lucky red envelopes. We loved the incredible honor upheld in this tradition of serving their elders tea. The entire day with three dresses, two ceremonies and one couple was nothing short of enchanting.

Mary & Justin: A Stunning Haiku Mill Wedding

Mary & Justin's wedding this summer was a wedding we thoroughly enjoyed. Their adorable little family of three had such an amazing connection. From the romance of the Haiku Mill and the bride's elegant gown, down to the red lipstick, there was not a detail we weren't smitten with. As you will soon see, the Bride & Groom were certainly the stars of the show.

A Marie Antoinette Inspired Shoot at the Haiku Mill

A while back we had the opportunity to work with an INCREDIBLE team of vendors on a Marie Antoinette inspired bridal shoot. Outlets like this allow us all to come together, meet some incredible talent and best of all to use our creativity without limits! This shoot was so much fun to plan and it came together just perfectly in the secret garden setting of the Haiku Mill. One of our favorite parts of this shoot was the floor length tiered pettiskirt--- it was love at first sight. Another highlight was the cake made entirely of flowers! And how incredible is that hair? We are planning our next styled shoot and can't wait to share our next creative vision with you all. But for now, enjoy some eye candy...

A huge thanks to all the vendors involved:

Ryan & Stacey: A Haiku Mill Wedding

Another beauty at the Haiku Mill. We've decided it is absolutely impossible to not have an insanely beautiful wedding at that venue. This adorable couple were completely in love and had their reception at the Haiku Mill after being married in a Catholic ceremony. The bride's lovely veil was actually hand made by her talented brother or brides"man".  Take a look at all of their lovely details!

Darren & Tabitha: A Day After Session at the Haiku Mill

Though I can't share their GORGEOUS wedding with you yet, Darren & Tabitha were the most lovely couple you could imagine. Documenting their love was so important to them that they scheduled a "day after" session at the Haiku Mill--- and we loved every second of it.

Matthew & Kelly's Maui Engagement Session

This unbelievably beautiful couple is one of our 2012 weddings lined up at the Haiku Mill. Better yet, they are coming all the way from Australia! We are thrilled to be able to capture the love that is so evident between them and can hardly wait for the wedding day.

Speaking of Australia... We are pleased to announce that we will be taking a side trip to the land of Oz on our way to Fiji and will be accepting one wedding during our stay. To find out more info, check out Polka Dot Bride who officially announced our coming!

Paul & Stephanie: A Bridal Shoot at the Haiku Mill

Paul & Stephanie planned a "Day After" shoot at the breathtaking grounds of the Haiku Mill--- needless to say it was everything we hoped for. There is something exceptionally romantic in capturing an intimate love in the Haiku Mill's Utopia--- an excellent way to begin the rest of one's life.

Countdown Events at the Haiku Mill

We are so excited to finally share these images! For this jaw-dropping shoot at the Haiku Mill, Tamiz Photography coordinated with Soha of Countdown Events-- Vancouver's premier wedding and event company. As you can see between the adorable Betsey Johnson dress, Elsa Corsi broach, our flawless bride Kori with makeup by Jessica Waite, and all the other immaculate details... we were all ecstatic to be working on such a project. The beautiful floral spreads were custom designed by Bella Bloom and custom stationary all the way from Canada by Wintons. As you can see, Countdown Events specializes in coordinating immaculate events fit for a Queen. Don't forget to check out Creme de la Creme, their luxury annual bridal show.

Melissa & Jason: A Haiku Mill Wedding

Oh, how I love photographing at the Haiku Mill. On this occasion I had the opportunity to assist the fabulous Matthew Alvarado of Beloved (a lovely wedding photography boutique). Start with an incredible location, a to-die-for dress (all the ruffles and layers a girl could ever wish for), throw in a gorgeous couple and Haiku Mill's very own incredibly talented Allie McMillan as coordinater..... and VOILA... it is safe to say it was magical.

Bridal Shoot at the Haiku Mill Featured

Excited our bridal shoot at the Haiku Mill was featured by the well known Destination I Do Wedding Magazine. Check out their blog posting here.

Also check out the two blog features by Dellables Floral Wedding Design voted best florist on Maui for 2010 & 2011. You can see the posts here and here :)

A special thanks to Cupcake Love Maui and the lovely gown by Tamara Catz.

Bridals at the Haiku Mill

I was thrilled to coordinate this Bridal Shoot at the Haiku Mill. If you haven't seen the Haiku Mill in person, you are missing out on an incredible experience. It is absolutely the most breathtaking wedding venue I have ever seen (you can see more images of the beautiful Haiku Mill HERE).

The bridal gown featured in this shoot is a one of a kind Tamara Catz dress. Her dresses are completely unique to the destination bride and so fitting for this lovely island. I love Tamara's take on gowns: the Bride is intended to wear the dress, as opposed to the dress wearing the Bride.

We had the very talented Della of Dellables design our "earthy" bouquet. I love how creative she got with it, from the succulents to the bamboo hemp in liu of ribbon (PS. the bouquet had quite a long after-life)

The cupcakes were delicious by the way. Cupcake Love is becoming the newest craze on Maui... they look beautiful and taste amazing.

A HUGE thanks to our lovely couple: Sara and Dan Kolp? Don't you think they are lovely?


Oh yeah... I had way too many favorites, so you may want to get comfortable.
