Not a Shotgun Wedding

Saturday, (Mar. 22) 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. at the Maui Tropical Plantation, Waikapu

[BRIDAL FAIR] My wedding was nice but simple. My dress was cotton and my shoes were slippers. We skipped the roses and orchids and went for daisies. While I think that my down to earth nuptials were very fitting to our general personalities, the Portuguese blood running through my veins is still pissed about missing out on all of the sateen, veils, bouquets and wedding favors that I could have, should have had. My advice to you brides to be? Go to "An Elegant Bridal Affair" brought to you by the Maui Wedding Association at the Maui Tropical Plantation. On hand there will be wedding coordinators, musicians, wedding favors, limo's and transportation, wedding dresses, photographers, caterers, ministers, cakes and desserts, floral designers, wedding locations and more. Also there will be a bridal fashion show, live entertainment and prize giveaways. Register online and save time the day of the fair, www.mauibridalfair.com
