Events by Evonne: Jeff and Rhonda

Evonne of Events by Evonne shared the wedding of Jeff and Rhonda with me. They were married on June 7, 2008 at The Plantation Golf Course and had their reception at The Plantation House Restaurant in Mau`i. Words on the street is that Jeff and Rhonda met through a blind date and to thank their guests for their support they had a miniature cake for each guest, each about four inches round.

Evonne wrote of the wedding on her blog, "Rhonda picked the most beautiful colors for her wedding - turquoise blue, apple green and espresso brown. We had brown linens with blue chair sashes, green and blue fabric swags for the stairs railing, green and blue silk napkins, brown ottomans with blue and green pillows... The combination was unbelievable."

"Guests enjoyed their pupus (appetizers) and a blue Signature cocktail, while a Hawaiian duo serenaded them. The dinner reception included an 8 course wine-pairing menu. That was the most extensive menu I have ever seen of all the weddings I have planned on the islands. To top it off, each guest got their own individual wedding cake."

And if you're going to be married in Maui, put Evonne at the top of your must have list. Events by Evonne is a full service wedding and event planning, coordination and design company, founded by Evonne Wong, who has planned over 300 weddings and events both on the beautiful valley isle of Mau`i and in the San Francisco Bay Area.

(Note from Melissa: Evonne is also extremely friendly and well connected in the wedding industry. In fact, you should just plan your wedding to be in Maui just so you can work with her, it'd be well worth it!)
