Triple Vow Renewal at Smith's Fern Grotto Wedding with Larry LaSota Kauai Minister

Now this is a good one.
 
Ah yes, the challenge of the moment. A triple header vow renewal ceremony at the Fern Grotto. And... it was a surprise for all the wives. Lots of secret planning and phone calls from Scott to Andrea of the Fern Grotto.
Usually we all ride up the the Grotto un a specially decorated boat. Well, I had to go on an earlier boat the wives wouldn't get wise. They didn't decorate the wedding boat, also to keep the wives from getting suspicious.

When everyone gets to the Fern Grotto deck, the beans are finally spilled the girls go wild. They loved the idea.
I always like to customize a vow renewal being sure to year right as well as other personal details. I love the tenderness of a vow renewal.

Well, I had to make a cheat sheet to keep the names of the three couples and the number of years they were married and three different last names. I show the couples my cheat sheet  and lined them up in order.

They were such lovely folks and we were able to talk story as we worked our way through it all.
A wonderfully emotional time was had by all. Great job Andrea. Who even did a hula on the boat ride up!

Larry LaSota and Another Magic Fern Grotto Wedding

Meagan and Mike were ready for a great afternoon getting married Smith's Fern Grotto Wailua River Cruise. Then half way up the Wailua River this squall comes in and is blowing rain everywhere. We all got worried.

Well, we went to the Grotto with umbrellas in hand and what do you know, as son as Meagan was walking up the isle, the rain stopped and the sun came out. Yes! Someone was watching over.

One of the MANY good things about the Fern Grotto is the good people you get to work with! The Boat Captains are the best. And I get to work with photographer Ron Kosen from Photo Spectrum often!
