Groom, Groomsmen, and Ushers Attire


Daniel will be wearing a tux with a bow tie and vest to match my dress. The Groomsmen will wear a tux with a bow tie and vest to match the Bridesmaids, and the ushers will wear a tux with a tie and vest to match to Bridesmaids too. We set up a hierarchy with the Groom wearing the most formal, then the Groomsmen to match the Bridesmaids and the Ushers are just a tad bit below them.

Daniel's Tux




Groomsmen and Ushers will wear the same tux except the Groomsmen will wear bow ties and the Ushers will just wear ties.




This is the color the Groomsmen and Ushers will wear

We will be going to Tahiti for our honeymoon!! We will be there for 6 nights. We will be flying from Houston to LA then strait to Tahiti. We land in the capital of Tahiti which is Papeete then go directly to the island of Moorea. We will spend 2 nights in a garden villa with our own pool and then 2 nights in an over the water bungelow. Then we fly back to Papeete and stay 2 nights in a mountain view room and enjoy the culture of Tahiti there.

Moorea

The Magical Island Moorea, soaring magically out of the ocean in an explosion of green velvet, is what you would imagine a South Seas island to be. A wide, shallow lagoon surrounds the island ' s vertical mountains where poetic threads of waterfalls tumble down fern-softened cliffs. Peaceful meadows flanked by pinnacles of green will fill your senses and renew your belief in the majesty of nature. Pastel-painted houses surrounded by gardens of hibiscus and birds of paradise, circle the island in a fantasy of happy, yet simple villages.



Over the water bungalows


Moorea

The island's mountainous interior shelters deep valleys, clear streams, high waterfalls and mysterious caves, all bathed in the green iridescence of Mother Nature's light. The wide, flat coastal lands, edged with a rugged coastline, are home to both fields of tropical flowers and most of the island's population. Papeete, meaning "water basket," was once a gathering place where Tahitians came to fill their calabashes with fresh water. Now the invigorating capital city and gateway of the territory, Papeete boasts vibrant markets, fine restaurants, pearl shops, clubs and boutiques.
