From Ryan and Corrine:
What was the most memorable moment of your day?
Corinne: My favorite moment of the entire was walking down the aisle toward Ryan with my Dad holding me so close. As I walked down with one of my best friends playing the opening song, I could feel my Dad shaking and crying as he walked me to Ryan. It was the most beautiful moment watching this passing of my father to my new husband. I will never forget it.
Ryan: The most memorable moment of my day was watching Corinne walk down the aisle and listening to our friend Annalise sing one of our favorite songs called "How Beautiful". Our Pastor said that it was the first time that he witnessed every single person with tears on their cheeks before the wedding even started!
What was your favorite wedding detail?
Corinne: I absolutely loved the decor and the flowers at our reception. Our friend, Kela, was so amazing in the flowers she chose so particularly for our wedding. You can find her at @islandgirlplantdesigns on Instagram. She was such a JOY to work with and blessed us with amazing decor and bouquets.
Ryan: I really enjoyed having our reception at Sunshower Farms. The venue was perfect with a peaceful and mystical fog, beautiful golden lights, and live music + hula duo during our dinner hours. It was pure magic.
Any advice for future couples?
Corinne: I would just advise each bride and groom to enjoy every single moment of their day, to listen to their own vision when it comes to their big day, and stay humble and grateful during the entire process.
Ryan: Just enjoy the day and forget about all of the small details. It's one of the most important days of your life and you'll remember it forever.
Funniest memory from your wedding day?
Corinne: My funniest memory from the wedding day was watching my family perform a dance/rap skit in the middle of the reception. They said they messed up during it, but we absolutely loved it and could not stop laughing and smiling the whole time.
Ryan: My funniest memory was when we had a massive dance circle and each person had their 15 seconds of fame to groove and show off their best dance moves. We have some incredible dancers in both of our families!
If you could do it all over, would you change anything?
Corinne: I really wouldn't change anything. Even the moments that didn't go as smoothly or having the reception end earlier than we hoped, I am so grateful for each and every moment. Ryan and I learned so much in planning this entire wedding by ourselves and are so thankful for our family and friends coming together for an epic weekend.
Ryan: Not one thing.
Where did you go on your honeymoon?
We camped for two nights on a seven mile golden sand beach on the west coast of Kauai, and then spent our final night at the Marriott Resort.
