Old Plantation Hawaii meets soft, summer romance in this bridal editorial put together by destination wedding photographer Sheri McMahon and floral designer and stylist Debbie of Designs by Hemingway.

"Our vision was to create an elegant, romantic tropical Hawaiian wedding vibe without the traditional tropical foliage and pineapples. The floral arrangement and tablescape were combined with a few pops of bright tropical foliage softened by a natural colour palette. Touches of coral and sea elements were used to enhance that coastal and tropical vibe. Ka La'i Aloha Estate reflected the Hawaiian elegant charm perfectly.  A new fresh look and take on a Hawaiian wedding for brides to be.  Think outside the box and look at Hawaii in a new light."

The cake held a classic two-tier shape that balanced beautifully with adornments of delicate leafing and textured neutrals. It was designed by local Honolulu bakery, A Cake Life.

The talented Kenaina of Small Brown Writes crafted a gorgeous ensemble of hand-written calligraphy inspired by the tropical sea. The watercolor blues paired wonderfully with the romantic, neutral floral color palette.
