Lindsay & Kris

Lindsay and Kris got married in December 2008 at a fabulous private home in Portlock. One of the many reasons I love what I do is that my relationship and interaction with my clients often allow them to impact and influence me personally in unexpected ways. Lindsay and Kris are walking examples of what unconditional love, warmth, graciousness and generosity are all about. They are absolutely the sweetest couple I've ever met; they both have their hearts in the right places, have tremendous amount of respect and support for each other, are super well prepared for marriage; and most importantly, their mutual love for God is just consistently glowing through their hearts and souls.

One example of why Lindsay is just super cool to with work: Lindsay's original colors for her wedding were turquoise and yellow, but when her bridesmaids' dresses came in, they were in a completely wrong shade! Our florist, Avery with Green Honolulu suggested going with more neutral shades (black, white, and tan) at this crunch time because they are easier to work with. Lindsay accepted the sudden change in color scheme with joy and excitement even though this all happened only 3 weeks prior to her wedding! Her bridesmaids ended up wearing these really cute black cocktail dresses from White House Black Market, and they carried colorful bouquets in hues of pinks, greens, oranges, and yellows. Since Lindsay's wedding was in December, there's always a risk of pouring rain. The week before her wedding, it rained all the way up until late Thursday, and we were 90% sure we had to go with plan B. But miraculously, the sky cleared up on Friday, and we didn't even need to set up a tent for the wedding at all. This all shows how great things always happen to those who love God!
