A girl from New Jersey and a boy from Sweden meet in Hawaii...and the rest is history!

Simon and Leiloni make the most adorable couple, it's not hard to see that they were meant for each other. Their smiles are infectious and their laughter too! They are both such sweet people and so very genuine, caring and of course fun! I couldn't wait for their wedding day at the Olde Mill Inn, and everything was perfect. Loni had her hair done at Hyldahl Studio and her talented sister did her make up - she looked gorgeous! The bouquets were so beautiful and unique as they were actually dried flowers from two different Etsy shops - Seasonal Bounty and The Flower Patch. I love the idea of the dried bouquets and they held up wonderfully throughout the hot summer day!

Both Loni and Simon were smiling nonstop and their smiles only got bigger once they were finally together, standing in front of family and friends. I always love to watch the groom's face as his bride walks down the aisle, whether he's smiling, serious or emotional. Simon's face was so sweet as he saw his beautiful wife walking towards him, just look at the love (and tears) in his eyes! What a special and beautiful ceremony, full of laughter. Like I've said before, these two are seriously the cutest! They make each other so incredibly happy, it's impossible not to smile just being around them. After hugs and congratulations from their guests, we took some pictures on the beautiful property of the Olde Mill Inn, and then it was time to party! Loni and Simon's first dance was to 'Hooked on a Feeling', and of course they were so cute as they danced to the "Ooga Chaka Ooga Ooga" chanting! Loni then danced with her Dad and Simon with his Mom, but it was the sweetest thing when Loni escorted her Mom onto the dance floor for a Mother Daughter dance. Loni is the youngest of 3 girls and knew her Mom would never have that dance, how precious and thoughtful to give her Mom that special moment. <3 The rest of the night was filled with all kinds of dancing! DJ George Flores from Music for Joyous Occasions really covered everything, from great oldies to Swedish dance songs to musicals, and even some fun Middle Eastern music. What a fun party! I am so happy for Simon and Leiloni, and thankful for the privilege of capturing their beautiful wedding day.

Wishing you a lifetime of happiness and love!
