Paliku Gardens – Vintage Bohemian Bliss with a Modern, Alternative Feel

Paliku at Kualoa Ranch is one of our favorite venues and we love to see the day-of transformation from being a lush green lawn space to a couple’s wedding vision. And Min and Chris’ vintage bohemian bliss with a modern twist vision turned out gorgeous! The vibes were immaculate and the guests were ready to celebrate Min and Chris.

The Wedding

There are common wedding themes, but the vibes are always different. What makes a wedding unique? Personalized details! Min and Chris’ vintage, modern, bohemian bliss wedding was stunning. Instead of having a classic seating chart, the couple had a map of some of their favorite places where they visited together and guests found their seats based on where they were located on the map. Clear bud vases filled with ivory, blush, and greenery accented with a pop of red florals, gold tea light candles, and laser wood cutout of a favorite destination, dressed the guest tables. While the soft romantic floral arrangement on the couple’s sweetheart table was stunning, the rattan peacock chairs were one of our favorite details. The rattan peacock chairs made a statement that this is where a bride and groom sits. Min and Chris’ tent-less reception was chic and intimate.

Cigar Bar Lounge Area? Yes, please!

Stir Bev’s cigar bar is such a fun experience. And, Min and Chris took Stir Beverage’s cigar bar to the next level and made a cigar bar lounge area in the bowl with Aloha Artisan’s rattan-styled lounge. The cigar bar lounge area was lit with cafe lights and had a backdrop of the ocean. The elevated lounge area had a vintage, bohemian vibe that was loved by their guests. It looked amazing!

A Grand Entrance & a Grand Exit

The couple’s grand entrance as Mr. and Mrs. was electric! The couple choreographed a small dance as they walked down the staircase into their reception area. In their seats, were all of their guests on their feet cheering on Min and Chris as they danced passed them onto the dance floor. And, on the dance floor was their bridal party cheering, dancing and waiting for them in tunnel formation for Min and Chris to walk through. Later that night, the couple then had a grand exit where guests showered them with bubbles. The bubbles surrounded the happy couple as they left Paliku, as husband and wife.

Thank you to this incredible group of vendors made Min & Chris’ special day possible:
