- Hawaiian wedding leis are
a fragrant touch for most Hawaii wedding celebrations. There is nothing like
the tropical fragrance Hawaiian flowers around your neck to remind you
of your love here in the land of aloha.

- Hawaiian flower leis are a part of the aloha
spirit. Often given as a greeting to someone arriving in Hawaii, their
tradition goes back many years in the islands.

Nothing is more traditional and romantic
then giving a wedding lei to your beloved as part of your romantic Hawaii
wedding ceremony. We consider this a standard part of all the wedding
ceremonies we perform on Maui.
Hawaiian Wedding Leis
-
As part of each Hawaii Wedding Package, we include two
wedding leis for a lei exchange for the
bride and groom. Most of the services our ministers perform include
a wedding lei exchange. All of our Hawaiian leis are fresh and custom-made for
us by our florist who grows the Hawaii flowers on her own property in
up-country Maui.
-

The Hawaiians believe that
it is the giving of the lei with a kiss that imparts that special
aloha. We therefore encourage our brides and grooms to give each
other a kiss on both cheeks when they place the wedding lei on their
beloved.
Besides the giving and receiving of
your Hawaiian wedding leis during your Maui wedding ceremony, we also use
them to enhance your photography and your Hawaii wedding video. We will
often use them as accents for the cake table, or place them in a heart in
the sand where we have written "Just Maui'd" in the sand. Hawaii
flowers
definitely improve the quality and variety of your photographic and video.
Hawaii leis can be made of many different
flowers and their beauty and fragrance can vary depending upon the skill
of the wedding lei
maker and of course the flowers used. Plumeria flowers are a standard for many
of our wedding leis.
They are quite fragrant and are usually available year round in either
yellow or white. Purple orchids are another common Hawaii lei that is made in
Hawaii. They are less fragrant and because they are so readily available,
they are often given at the airport by companies specializing in Hawaii lei
greetings.
If you've never been to Hawaii, you
should know that the old tradition of greeting all visitors with leis is
no longer a custom. Some tour companies include this in their offerings,
but most tourists getting off the airplane will not be greeted with
Hawaii flower leis (unless you have arranged it in advance).
Our Hawaii lei maker likes to create leis
composed of plumeria, crown flowers, and other varieties to creating some
attractive and fragrant leis. All of our leis are made fresh within
24-hours before you receive them. This keeps them lasting longer after
your Maui
wedding is over, so that you can bring the fragrance with you as you go
back to your honeymoon suite.
-
You can also order extra
flower leis for members of your wedding party and for your
children. (We make certain that the smaller leis for young children
are made with non-toxic flowers).

A Hawaii traditional maile lei
for men is made of green leafy plants and is open on the ends
(so that it hangs down his chest). The plants that are used for
making this lei are actually grown off-island, and must be ordered
in advance (and so these leis are more expensive than our regular
leis).
-
-
We also have a less expensive
lei available for men which we call the Groom's ti Leaf Lei.
These leis can be open like the Hawaii maile lei or connected in a circle
like a traditional lei. This is much easier to get than the maile
lei.
-
-
-
When you order leis, you
can specify subdued pastel colors or the more vibrant
flowers. If you have a particular color in mind that you
want us to match (or avoid), be sure to ask and we'll see what's
available from our lei supplier.
