Our Wedding

It all started in front of Target at the Irvine Spectrum. Wendy had just survived a not-so-great blind date, while Gary was busy stocking up on essentials (aka things he didn’t actually need). The moment Gary saw Wendy, he knew he had to act. With his trademark charm (and maybe a bit of Target magic), he asked for her number, and Wendy, impressed by his confidence, couldn’t say no. And just like that, their adventure began!   From that moment on, the adventures never stopped. Wendy took Gary on their first road trip to East Jesus, where Gary's car fell apart, leaving them stranded in what felt like no-man’s land- complete with rumors of cannibals (just kidding... or are we?) . But even in chaos, they found laughter and love. Gary returned the favor with countless snowboarding trips, where they both fell (literally) head over heels for each other. After crashing into each other on the slopes multiple times, they realized, We are crashing in love!   We’re excited to share our next big adventure with all of you. We hope you enjoy our story as much as we’ve enjoyed living it, and we can’t wait to celebrate this special day together!

Other Hotels

Travel

Hikes on Kauai include: - Waimea Canyon - Kalalau Trail - Wai Koa Loop Trail (3.7 Miles Out-And-Back) - Ho’opi’i Falls Hike (1.8 Miles Out-And-Back) - Sleeping Giant Hike (Nounou Mountain) (3.4 Miles Out-And-Back)

Hiking

Get those drone views of Hawaii’s “Garden Isle”—but get them yourself, in an open-door helicopter. With no rear middle seats, you and your crew will take to the skies for nearly an hour, flying above lush canyons, wild cliffs, and the wettest spot on Earth. Led by a trained firefighting pilot, you’ll get a fast-paced-yet-awe-inducing adventure, and you’ll nab some of the most gorgeous views on the planet.

Helicopter Tours

The best way to experience the majestic Napali cliffs and coast is by boat. This half-day tour aboard a native- and family-owned catamaran will take you aboard one of four vessels with a guide who will share native stories and wildlife knowledge. Guests will either get to snorkel or go whale watching, depending on the season, explore the coast’s intriguing sea caves, and see the dramatic Waimea Canyon. Afternoon tours include lunch and a picturesque sunset.

Boat Tours

Indulge in a traditional dinner, unlimited drinks, and a theatrical luau that includes performances, crafts vendors, and cultural activities. Set on the grounds of the historic Kilohana Plantation, you can learn about the history of Hawaii while enjoying the show. Plus, you can enjoy a train ride around the plantation to learn more about the site and catch crowd-free photo opportunities.

Luau Show And Dinner

Get a new perspective on Kauai as you soar through lush forests and over the Waita Reservoir on the island’s longest ziplines. While cruising across the 8-track course near Koloa, hang on to the handlebars or try some more daring acrobatic stunts with the hands-free ‘Flyin Kauaian’ harness.

Zipling

Avoid crowds and embark on a Kauai snorkeling tour that limits group size. Head for Kauai’s pristine southshore reefs to see tropical fish, sea urchins, and sea mammals. You may also see a Hawaiian green sea turtle nesting on the beach or a Hawaiian monk seal basking in the sun.
