Rehearsal Dinner

This is the inside entrance/lobby of the Grand Wailea Resort (enough said!)!  Seriously this place was stunning.  The DeBruin clan actually stayed at this resort but not at the hotel part....we were across the street at the townhouses (also amazing)

Beautiful table centerpieces!Famous Wailea Chapel.  The rehearsal dinner was overlooking this!

The rehearsal dinner was a really beautiful event.  It started out a little hot but once the sun set it was a gorgeous evening.  There was so much food it was unbelievable.  I have ro say....if you ever make it to Maui....try fish tacos, Kaluha pork empanadas, and the purple sweet potatoes.  I actually tried duck for the first time....not a fan but the people that liked duck said it was prepared really well.

Aside from a little drama which I guess is expected at any wedding the night was truly a celebration of love, friends, and family.  P.S. Christy's dress was fabulous!
