Cici and Sean started their day off at Kona Cloud Forest Sanctuary for photographs in the lush forest. This forest receives as much as 40% of the precipitation from mist and clouds, and is a magical high elevation forest just above Kona airport. Cici and Sean loved exploring the trails and flora and fauna, and we enjoyed the cooler high elevation temperatures. This location is perfect for couple’s looking for greenery but still want to be close to the sunsets on Hawai’i Island’s west side.

Afterward our forest adventure, Cici and Sean changed into their wedding clothes and we cruised to the ocean to a special spot called Kohanaiki for their ceremony and sunset photographs. The Kona Coastline has numerous spots that you can legally get married at, and I love the privacy of the old lava fields at Kohanaiki.
