The Planning
How did you decide on your Eveni Pacific/Koko Pacific bridal party outfits?
I chose Eveni - Koko Pacific for the Groomsmen Outfits. Eveni is one of my favourite stores in Samoa. They supply the best outfits and great quality for any special occasion.

What was the most stressful part in planning?
Making sure there's enough food on the Day. For Samoans it's always about the food. (If the food is bad the whole wedding is bad)LOL.

The part when the Minister was suppose to say "You may kiss the bride" . But he asked me to take off the Bride's veil to make sure she is the one. I opened the Veil and i said.... SARREY......?LOL
