An Elegant Island Celebration
While many island destination weddings take advantage of the outdoors, Jenny and Christoph chose the best of everything with a traditional ceremony inside the historical seaside chapel, Keawala'i Congregational Church on the South Shore of Maui. Jenny walked down the perfectly decorated aisle, complete with white orchids dripping from the pews, in a stunning Monique Lhuillier gown and classic Manolo Blaniks. The newlyweds and their guests moved to the secluded, private Sugarman Estate on Ahihi Bay in South Makena for their elegant, outdoor reception. Event planner Nichole Shin and floral designer Yvonne Chapman incorporated crystal chandeliers, candlelight and exquisite tabletop arrangements to create an intimate, tented celebration on the estate's expansive, oceanfront lawn. Guests relaxed in outdoor lounge areas during cocktail hour and after dinner, danced the night away under the stars.
