WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH A SEPARATE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION? ARE YOU HAVING TWO WEDDINGS?
Kind of! It was important for us to have a ceremony on Maui since it’s where we fell in love, but we know Hawaii is very far away and travel can tough (fun fact: Hawaii is actually the most isolated population on Earth, by miles from other land mass!).
Having a smaller ceremony in Hawaii and a bigger reception party on the mainland (Chicago) gave us the best of both worlds, and hopefully gives everyone in our community - both near and far - an opportunity to come celebrate with us.
are kids allowed?
Each event is slightly different (see the Ceremony and Reception specific sites for more details), but of course we recognize that people may have unique needs. If your questions aren’t answered on the website, please feel free to reach out to us directly!
