Two days prior to the BIG day, Rae & Reuben along with their immediate family and wedding party held their ceremony rehearsal at Central Union Church in the Main Sanctuary. Wedding Director, Mrs. Susan Robinson ran a smooth and efficient rehearsal.
On the day of the wedding, Saturday, January 30, 2010 the Bridal party woke up before the sunrise to receive Hair & Make up Services from Naturally You Hair & Make up by Vicky and CJ.
Always punctual, always cheery, and always fashionable…CJ did a wonderful job on all the girls including the bride’s mom, groom’s mom and aunty totaling to…10 LADIES!!! Thanks CJ! (Here’s something extra: CJ speaks Korean! It really helped when she was asking the Groom’s mom and aunty specific questions about their hair & make up) You’re soooo AWESOME CJ!!!
A Perfect Day Staff, Antionette Uriarte was the “first person in” to help the wedding party get ready in the morning.
Antoinette had her sewing machine in tow to fix a bridesmaid’s dress that was way too big! Luckily, Antoinette was a fashion designer! She fixed that dress to fit the bridesmaid perfectly! Thanks Antoinette!
Rae & Reuben hired Su-V Expressions to take care of their Wedding Party Floral and Reception Decor. Sue and staff did a beautiful job in capturing the Bride’s vision and wedding colors in the floral. THANKS SUE!
Photographer, Vince Shin of Love Story Weddings captured all the details and emotions of the wedding day. THANKS VINCE for being so easy to work with and being able to speak Korean! (Definitely a PLUS when having to communicate and direct Korean speaking family members)
A Perfect Day also provides “security” if the Bride & Groom are staying in adjoining rooms and they are NOT to see each other till the “first look” shots by the photographer. Good job Antoinette! LOL
It’s amazing to what lengths photographers will take to capture that perfect shot of the Bride & Groom. Here’s Vince…26th floor…overlooking the Pacific Ocean with Diamond Head in the background. And yes, he is sitting on the railing! AHHHH!
Ceremony: Central Union Church - Main Sanctuary
Good friend of the Groom and longtime professional videographer, Reginald Perry provided video coverage of the Bride & Groom getting ready, ceremony, and reception. THANKS for the great work REG!
A Perfect Day Staff, Debbie Magsanay helped with ceremony set up and coordination. Here she is smiling for the camera as she straightens up in the Pilgrim Chapel. THANKS DEB for all your help!
Head Wedding Director, Mrs. Susan Robinson could be seen all over the grounds of Central Union Church taking care of the many details to ensure a smooth and beautiful wedding ceremony. She was a delight to work with because of her professionalism and genuine loving spirit. THANK YOU to Mrs. Robinson for an EXCELLENT wedding ceremony!
The last detail a wedding coordinator does before the Bride processes down the aisle…THE FLUFF! Train fluff by Mary Cachuela =)
Officiant, Reverend Dean J. Vestal performed the wedding ceremony for Rae, Reuben and their family and friends present. THANK YOU Reverend Dean Vestal for a beautiful wedding ceremony!
Transportation for the Wedding party was provided by Duke’s Limousine. Below is the Limo Bus on the outside. You have to see the inside in-person - disco lights, music, lots of room, and even a pole! THANKS Johnny for being a GREAT driver!!! Reliable, punctual, and friendly!
The wedding ceremony and reception site up were happening simultaneously so A Perfect Day had separate staff members at both sites. Derek Santos can be seen here placing the centerpieces on the guest tables. Centerpieces, favors, table cards and numbers were done by the Bride, Groom, and their friends.
4 tiered cake was provided by the Hale Koa Hotel. Flowers were done by Florist: Su-V Expressions.
