How It Happened
Impromptu marriage proposal on stage at Luau Kalamaku at the Kilohana Plantation in the Hawaiian island of Kauaʻi. The audience included both of Ivy’s parents, her two sisters Iris and Ida, and Sean, Iris’ boyfriend — the steady hand behind the mobile phone video cam… in additional to 600 vacationing strangers.

Registry
Visit Our Wishing Well
Thank you so much for being part of our big wedding day.Many people have asked us if there is anything we would like, and to be honest we already have most of the things we need, but for those who feel the desire we have set up this special wishing well registry for our wedding.
We have chosen this website because it is safe and secure and very convenient (please do not mail or bring money in an envelope as this is hard for us to manage and easy to lose)
OurWishingWell.com is our first preference of how you can best help us if you like, but please know that what we desire most is your presence (not presents).
We look forward to seeing you at our August 2 wedding!

Book of Rites
The Book of Rites (禮記), literally the Record of Rites, is a collection of texts by Confucius (孔子) describing the social forms, administration, and ceremonial rites of the Zhou Dynasty (1046–256 BC) as they were understood in the Warring States and early Han Dynasty periods (481–207 BC).
