Monica and Michael met in Hawaii so it was only fitting that they planned their destination wedding in the same place they met and fell in love! The long distance pair thought it was the magic of a tropical vacation that made their meeting so special, but after she went home to Minneapolis and he returned to Australia, it was clear there was something more than holiday fun! After a year of long distance dating and long haul flights to see each other, Monica moved half a world away to be with her love in Australia – and the rest is history! Their beautiful wedding day at Hilton Hawaiian Village and Moana Surfrider is a testament to the strength of a connection forged in one of the most beautiful places on earth – how fitting that they took the next step there! Their venue coordinator, Kelli Kajiwara, helped with every detail planned from Sydney and Absolutely Loved Photography made sure it was a day to remember!
