Janelle & Alex's wedding on June 13, 2009 was definitely one to remember! First off, they are an ADORABLE couple and just so fun!! They were married on the beach in front of close family and friends at Lanikuhonua and then enjoyed a fun reception that included mini foods, a photobooth, scrapbooking table, memory tent, a unique cake, tissue balls, signature drinks, giant cupcake centerpieces, pinatas, a candy bar plus more!!
Janelle is an amazing baker and we were always filled with her yummy goodies (which we miss!!).

Pre-ceremony pics = ADORABLE:








Their ceremony on the beach was small and intimate, and you could feel the joy as Janelle jumped up and kissed Alex after their "I Do's"!!


After that the rest of their guests arrived, Janelle changed into her cute reception dress, and the party really started!


Everyone enjoyed their impressive first dance,


and then a fun skit done by their wedding party!


Guests were then able to mingle around and eat the deeeelish mini foods by Ginniberries,



help themselves to the candy bar as their favors,



enjoy a turtle cake & huge cupcakes for dessert, made by Rick & Sasha of Cake Lava



take pictures in the photobooth,


and participate in their pinata game, in lieu of a traditional bouquet & garter toss!




It was such a great day and we were so grateful to be a part of this happy, fun, sweet-as-can-be couple's wedding! Thank you Janelle & Alex, and we all wish you two the yummiest life together!!

Please enjoy the rest of the pictures below!!!!
