Our journey started in November of 2011 when I first saw a photo of Wade. He was so handsome and just really looked fun; I knew I just had to meet him. On the first day we spoke we decided to go out that very evening. The kiss goodnight on our first date sealed the deal. Just 3 days later we blended our household, accounts, lives, and plans for the future. We have become life partners and business partners. That has been great but we want to honor one another with a stronger commitment and public promise of our dedication to each other.

Wade has already become a part of my family. They all love him! I will be blessed with the opportunity to meet many of his family members in Maui and join his family. We both treasure family so I am anxiously looking forward to joining the Bandy family!

After all our life experiences, we have learned to appreciate true love and to prioritize each other above all else. We feel like we have been blessed with a magical relationship and look forward to growing old (ok, older) together. You know there had to be at least a little humor.

Nothing could be more romantic than a barefoot wedding on a Maui beach! Thank you Wade for this fabulous wedding gift!

It will be a very small, casual ceremony. Casual attire. Our minister will blow the traditional conch shell and recite an Hawaiin chant as part of the ceremony. There will also be a musical soloist performing. We will have a small symbolic wedding cake and a champagn toast. After taking the sunset wedding photos we will go in to town for dinner at a local restaurant. Once we have decided where we will be going for dinner we will announce it so that you can make reservations there also if you like.

We will be staying at the Royal Lahaina Resort for a total of 7 days and 6 nights. We will arrive on the afternoon of Sept 12th. We pick up our marriage license on the morning of Sept 13th and get married the evening of Sept 13th. (Wade's birthday!) The resort itself is magnificent and there are tons of things to see and do close by. If you are joining us in Hawaii we hope that you will be able to stay at the same resort so that we can enjoy spending time together easier. We plan to fly back to Texas on the afternoon of Sept 18th.
