What was the most memorable moment of your day?
Seeing him for the first time when he came to the bedeken, and put my veil on me. I was so excited, overwhelmed, happy, and couldn’t believe my life was about to start with this man that I love.

Any advice for future bride/grooms?
Don’t worry about anything!

Funniest memory from your wedding day?
I was taking some pictures, and I told someone to grab me another piece of sushi. My bridesmaid plopped it into my mouth, and my aunt thought I looked like a fish. This caused me to laugh a bit, so I choked a little, and my bridesmaid told me to spit it out, and I did, and the whole situation was so funny! I drooled a little on my dress.

If you could do it all over, would you change anything?
NO! It was great! Starting from the little rain that cleared up, to the zit they popped on my face, or my future sister, brother, and father in law had horrible sunburns from the day before. All of that didn’t matter, because I was marrying the man I love, and I just had so much fun!

Where did you go on your honeymoon?
The big island of Hawaii! We stated at the Royal Kona Resort and Hotel, and it was so lovely there. We woke up to swimming dolphins! It was so beautiful.
