A Chic Beach Wedding in Kapolei, Hawaii

Teresa and John met through mutual friends and dated for a year and a half before getting engaged. On a beautiful day in New York City, the couple took a walk to Central Park and sat on top of a big rock just talking and people-watching. John told Teresa how happy he was to be with her and suddenly he stood up, got down on one knee and said "but what would make me even happier is… if you’d become my wife.” He pulled out the ring from his jacket pocket…and proposed.

The Bride Teresa Song, 36, Producer at Katie
The Groom John Kim, 37, Architect, Partner at KIMOY Studios
The Date March 9

Teresa's parents live in Korea and John's family is from Fairfax, Virginia, so they thought Hawaii would be a great midway point for everyone. They had always talked about getting married on a beach so when they saw Lanikuhonua, they knew they had found the perfect wedding venue. It was beautiful, elegant and, most importantly, private for their special day.
