Hawaii Trip and Ceremony Albums

Hi Andersons!

I am posting my albums from our amazing Hawaii trip and wedding.  It was really a spectacular place and probably the best family vacation ever.  The ceremony was lovely, although we ended up having it on another beach than we planned.  Here are my four albums I made from everyones photos - we don't have the professional wedding photos yet, but we had enough great candid photos (thanks everyone!) that I almost feel like we don't need them.  Also, a note - I used Smug Mug for the first time to do these albums - I just wanted to try them out - please disregard the "Buy" links - I tried to delete it but couldn't figure out how to do it.  Otherwise, enjoy!

Album #1: Around the Resort on Kauai

Album #2: Around and Above Kauai

Album #3: Wedding Preparations

Album #4: Island Wedding

Wedding Plans

Hello Andersons!

Chris and I are leaving for Hawaii in a few days for our eloping/destination wedding and I wanted to share a few details with the family. We didn't get a chance to tell everyone about our plans when we were in Minnesota so I thought I could use the Anderblog as a venue. So here goes!

Chris's Mom was able to use two timeshare credits for two 2-bedroom units in Kauai for our week in Hawaii, which is how we chose our destination and saved us a lot of money. All of our parents and both of our sisters are joining us in Kauai.  We are getting married on December 8, 2011 on Anini Beach.
Some other details...my parents will be playing their ukeleles on the beach for the ceremony!  I found my dress at a boutique a block away from my house - I found a sample dress on sale for the same price as an off the rack dress. My engagement ring is a small vintage diamond and gold ring that Chris and I found together, and I'm probably going to use it as my wedding ring until I can find another one. It is navette-shaped which I'm told is like the hull of a boat.  It turned out that my dress was in a movie so I can show you what it looks like!
I am sorry that we won't be able to share our day with all the Andersons, but I look forward to sharing the wedding photos and Hawaiian photos with you all!

Chris and I will be back to Minnesota soon! Our next step will be buying a house in the next year or two so I hope you all will be able to visit Nashville!  Best wishes, Ingrid
