Surprise for the Bride

I had the opportunity to work with a super fun couple this weekend, Jason and Reiko; and I think we've pulled off the biggest surprise of all surprises! Jason and I have been working closely together for about a month prior to the wedding to surprise his new wife, Reiko and all of his 180 out of town guests with a spectacular fireworks show. It was required by the Ko Olina association that we inform all of the resort residents and hotel guests of the show, so they don't get scared by the loud noise. It was quite challenging to make sure no guests, especially Reiko, receive any notice about the show. With that many guests, you know someone will spill the beans, somehow! All week, I was really looking forward to seeing Reiko's reaction to this amazing (and expensive) surprise. After Jason gave his speech, we fired off the fireworks, and Reiko was completely in shock, and of course, in tears! Jason and Reiko were so much fun to work with; and their guests kept the dance floor busy all night. Let's just say that they danced so hard the dance floor moved about 3 - 4 feet away from its original position. I had no idea that's even possible! Professional pictures to come... when they are available :) But for now, here's a fantastic "camera phone photo" of the fireworks.

Mazal Tov!
