Beautiful!!!

Gorgeous photos ladies! We're doing ours this July and I am even more excited for it now! We haven't told anyone we're doing it yet so it should just be us for the shoot. Here's hoping we can get pictures half as good as these!!! Hot hot hot!

From what I understand, these new rules come into play in August, 2009, meaning after this date, there are no props allowed on a beach for a wedding, regardless of beach permits, etc. HOWEVER, in order to have the props before this date, special permits had to be applied for before November 30. My wedding is July 11, 2009. I already had a beach permit for the wedding but had to scrap that one to apply for a new one that allowed props, like chairs, a circle of flowers, etc. From what I understand the wedding planners are trying to take this issue to court, etc to try and reverse this decision, but I'm not sure what the result of this is just yet, or if any progress has been made. Hope this helps ladies

Go swimming, climb trees, jump in the ocean, anything you can think of really, with a photographer there to capture the moments!

Thanks for the warm welcome! Yeah, FI needs all the help he can get remembering dates. I mean, my birthday is Jan 1, the first day of the year and he has a hard time remembering THAT! hahaha here's hoping this works! We're getting married in the Makena area on the beach. Either Makena Secret Cove or Makena Surf Beach. It'll be a last minute decision once we're there and get to see it all. I'm pretty excited! I just wish it would be here now!!!

Hello! New to this forum! Been engaged since August 2008, getting married July 8, 2009 (hahaha yes, 07/08/09. Fiance picked it out so he could remember 7-8-9 easily...) in Maui! Busy counting down to the big day!
