Tsunami Day

*


 Tsunami Day in Hanalei...











The great evacuation
from the sea to the bluff
the second run
includes wedding essentials...













a walk on the golf course
with a Bali Hai view
helps to pass the time 
while we wait for the wave
to make its way
to the Islands













a beautiful bridal bouquet 
made from Foodland Supermarket roses
and native red ginger
found in the garden
and bound with string
from the hardware store













the relief is visible
"We are married"














the authentic Hawaiian Tsunami wedding
includes traditional footware!














and on the auspicious day
the birds on the tulip tree
in the blue blue sky
sing with joy...

  5. Weddings are usually dramatic enough, but throw in a tsunami warming and you really get suspense!

    The wedding shots were beautiful.

  8. Hi there Bonnie

    thanks for taking time to stop by again today. It was a wonderful wedding, their self written vows were very moving and the informal atmosphere felt very inclusive. We all felt a part of the wedding.

  10. thanks for your wishes Rosaria,

    you are right, this wedding will be talked about with interest over and over, already someone suggested that they should approach an Au magazine to write a story about their experience!
