Neontha & Denny were high school sweethearts. Denny joined the Air Force and the couple lost touch while he was serving in the military. With the onset of social media, the two found each other again. Last Valentines Day Denny flew to Hawaii where Neontha has lived for the past decade.... proposed to her, sold all his belongings and came to spend forever with his long lost love. | The wedding party was made up of the couples children and grandchildren. Their decorations were roses, family photos and memorabilia from their past- growing up in the Ozarks, emotional songs, service dog tags and such a special moment when the bride dawned his high school letterman's jacket that they wore when they first fell in love. |

Brian, a wedding coordinator here on the Big Island, hires me for many of his couples..... But this call was different. He was calling to ask me to photograph his own wedding!!! This couple has been together for 20 years. As of January 1, 2012 the state of Hawaii recognizes civil unions. I was honored to be asked to photograph Brian & David's ceremony. One of the fun elements was all the surprises. David did not realize all his friends would be in attendance. An even bigger surprise was David's sister did not realize her brother was getting married until she was tricked and already walking them down the isle! The reception at their home was a blast. Both grooms have worked in the catering business for years.... they are great cooks and prepared everything themselves. Mahalo to Dennis Garcia for sharing his music both at the ceremony and for this slide show.
