We're gathering where the mountains meet the sea.
Join us for an afternoon ceremony followed by a garden reception under the Hawaiian sunset.
Ceremony begins at 4:00 PM, with cocktail hour and reception to follow through 10:00 PM.
(Yes, where they filmed Jurassic Park!) We'll be in the beautiful Paliku Gardens.
Think florals, tropical colors, linens, etc. But most importantly, what you can wear onto the dance floor!
A few days on the island, from first hellos to the last dance.
Full details will follow closer to the date. For now, here's the shape of the weekend:
For anyone in town and who wants to soak up the island before the big day, join us for a casual morning hike up the iconic Diamond Head and açaí afterward at Island Vintage Coffee Waikiki.
Diamond Head Crater Trailhead →
An easygoing evening to say aloha, share drinks and light bites, and meet the rest of the wedding crew.
DECK. at Queen Kapiʻolani Hotel →
Vows in the beautiful Paliku Gardens of Kualoa Ranch, followed by dinner, dancing, and toasts as the sun sets over the valley.

The celebration isn't over yet! Join us for a few more hours of drinks to close out the night.
Location TBD
Join us for one last spread of coffee, pastries, and island fruit as we send you off with full hearts (and hopefully full stomachs).
Location TBD
All additional events are optional.
We just want to make the most of the weekend and spend more time with everyone we love. :)
Please let us know by January 31, 2027.
We can't wait to celebrate with you. 🤍

Everything you need to plan your trip to Oʻahu. Details below will be finalized soon.
The nearest airport is Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) in Honolulu, about 25 minutes from Waikiki and about 45 minutes from Kualoa Ranch.
We recommend booking flights by December 2026 for the best fares.
We want to keep things flexible, so we did not set up a hotel block — book wherever fits your style and budget. That said, we do recommend staying in Waikiki, close to the other weekend activities and shuttle pickup.
A few options across price ranges:
Warm days, breezy evenings, possible chance of flash rain and double rainbows. On the wedding day, bring sunscreen, comfortable shoes for grass and gravel, and possibly a light layer for the reception after sunset.
Making the most of the island? A few favorites if you have extra time:
We're also big foodies! Here are some of our top eats in Oʻahu.
It is about a 45 minute drive between Waikiki and Kualoa Ranch. We will have shuttle arrangements and will share exact pickup times and locations closer to the date.
Self-parking will also be available on-site at Kualoa Ranch. Waikiki is generally walkable, but car rentals and rideshares are also readily available for those who want to explore the rest of the island.
If you have any questions at any point, feel free to reach out to Ying or Sean directly!
Yes, kids are more than welcome! If you have any accommodations or special requests, please reach out to Ying or Sean directly.
Your guest is our guest! Just make sure to include their name in your RSVP so we have an accurate headcount.
Expect warm, sunny days around 77–82°F with humidity and cooler evenings around 68–70°F. March is the tail end of the rainy season so there's a real chance of brief passing showers, though rain rarely lasts long.
Both the ceremony and reception will be entirely outdoors at Paliku Gardens, set against sweeping views of Kāneʻohe Bay and the Koʻolau mountains.
The ceremony will take place on the open lawn, with the reception immediately following under a permanent open-air tent — so you'll still feel the breeze and the views, with a little extra coverage in case of rain.
We will not be accepting gifts. Your presence at our wedding is more than enough, and we're just grateful to celebrate with you. ❤️
