Our Story

Photos

Tracey has been fulfilling the printing needs of Maui's construction industry with Megan since hiring her in 2016 at HONBLUE Maui. They have cemented their friendship over the years through the love of yarn, crochet and endless stories of Tracey’s 4 sassy schnauzers. “Megan will always be my left twix!”

Tracey

Hi, my name is Kristy & I’m Megan’s cousin. I’ve known her since we were in diapers. I’m married to my lovely husband Vince & I have a 4 y/o son named Raiden. I am a Physical Therapist at the hospital. I love spending time with family. 

Kristy

Hi, I'm Wendy, Megan's favorite (ok, only) sister in law. I've been a Sueno for the past 17 years and was privileged to see Meg grow up into the bride-to-be that we all know and love! By day, I work in agriculture at the airport. At night, Justin and I work our second jobs as servants to 5 demanding (but cute!) rescue rabbits.

Wendy

Born and raised in Chicago, Jenny moved to the beautiful island of Maui in 2013 where she quickly became friends with Megan on a warm summer night enjoying tacos and drinks… The friendship quickly turned into roommates and soon the girls were living together and having the time of their lives … in a few months time- Kūlani had joined in on the girls fun and quickly the 3 became the “vitamin crew” as they took their vitamins every morning together. During the years the trio have travelled to Kauai, made unforgettable memories and have become life long friends.

Jenny

Nic enjoys playing golf, listening to pristine audio spilling from a properly placed subwoofer, and spending time with his fiance Angie and their sons Liam and Lennox. 
Nic and Kūlani highlights from the era of pre-responsibility include but are in no way limited to: train and hostel hopping across Europe for 3 weeks, a Cali Roots + Vegas vacation with most of the crew, and enough golf cart hijinks to last a lifetime. What you see is what you get!

Brandon and Kūlani were best friends in Mrs. Echeverri’s first grade class and that friendship has lasted over 35 years. Whether it is singing with cab drivers in Cuba, braving a Packers-Raiders game in Oakland, or just cruising at Lau house and watching Tyler steal meat off the grill, the adventure is better when Kuku and Beej are together.

Brandon 

Matt and Kūlani's Little League matchups- from T-ball straight through the Majors- are still whispered about by Kalama Park old-timers. Nowadays, these two rivals compete on the disc golf course instead. When Matt isn't banging chains and missing putts, he's with his wife Arica and their 3 children- Silas, Ayla, and Asher.

Matthew 

Rory met Kūlani on his first day at Kihei elementary after moving from Washington and they have been friends ever since. From bumper cars and hours of Mortal Kombat and NBA Jam as kids to drag races, beach barbeques and watching Tyler drink Sheryl’s Captain, they've been through so much!

Rory

Flowers need little rays of sunshine. With Ayla on duty, the flowers are safe :)

Ayla

Liam is grateful to be on this fancy double date with Uncle and Auntie and he hopes Ayla the Flower Girl will like his outfit...

Hi all! We know this isn’t your first trip to Maui. We also hope it isn’t your last. The best things to do on Maui is head to the beaches! Please let us know if you need personalized recommendations for food (from Kūlani and Megan) or hiking (all Kūlani).
