Logistics! What Happens On the Day of Your Wedding in Hawaii!

“What happens on the day of  our wedding, Steve!”  It’s one of of themost common questions I get asked.  Well, here’s a quick rundown.  But before I we skip to your wedding day, let’s back up and talk about what you need to do BEFORE you tie the knot. There […]

Arie Luyendyk, The Bachelor, Ends Engagement, America Overreacts

I’m a recent fan of “The Bachelor” franchise.   A good friend of mine got me interested in it and I’ve been tuning in for the last few years.    I actually have some loose ties to “The Bachelor” franchise as I had the opportunity to photograph one of the Bachelors […]

Is the city of Honolulu one of the Largest Modern Cities in America? Possibly…

I bet you’re scratching your head, thinking, that I must be some type of nut for laying out such a bold claim.  But hold your horses, maybe I have a point.  And maybe, I have some statistics to back it up – just maybe. If you google “size of Honolulu” […]

My Eagles & Nick Foles, Just Won The Super Bowl!

So many sportswriters got it wrong – again. Anyone who knows me, knows that I’m a diehard Eagles fan.   It’s in my bio and posted throughout this site.   I’m also a huge Nick Foles fan.   From the first day the Eagles drafted him, I’ve told friends, family, and anyone who […]

I’ve been getting a lot of wedding inquiries regarding all-inclusive Hawaii destination wedding packages.  These curious and potential customers are shopping for a package that includes everything.  A package that covers not only their wedding, but their air, hotel, food, rental car, entertainment, and here’s the kicker – unlimited drinks.  […]

Philadelphia Eagles Win NFC Championship!

We don’t have a professional football team in Hawaii, so the story behind why one fan chooses to follow a certain team can be rather interesting.  For me, I started following the Philadelphia Eagles back when Randall Cunningham was the quarterback.  That was back in the early 1990’s when the […]

FROM THE ARCHIVES: It’s 2018 and My Oahu Wedding Package Prices are Not Changing

Every year, companies always find an excuse to raise prices.  I remember in high school, every year, the price of a soda would go up by 5 cents.   By the time I graduated, soda was 20 cents more!  Hey for someone with only a summer family job, that was a […]

Nuclear Bombs, Weddings, and Hawaii

The State of Hawaii is a rather small State but we sure do make a big splash!  I obviously have a bias, but we’re in the headlines – a lot.   Did you hear that Jumanji was shot in Hawaii and it outperformed The Last Jedi!   And oh, that ethernet, you […]

“Mentally Raped” lesbian couple sues bakers & wins $135k

Aaron and Melissa Klein refused to bake a lesbian couple a wedding cake because it conflicted with their religious beliefs.   Not surprisingly, instead of just getting sued for the value of the wedding cake, they were sued for $135,000 because the incident caused that couple to gain weight and they […]
