Rachel Silberman & Adam Kruse
July 2, 2005
Makena, Maui, Hawaii
9 Guests
Honeymoon: Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora, and Tikehau
Wedding Day Highlights: At a beach cottage overlooking the ocean on Maui, Rachel and Adam’s sunset wedding took place near a lava rock cove as waves crashed onto the shore just a few feet away—a fitting symbol of the couple’s love  of nature. Immediate family members were in attendance for the intimate ceremony as Rachel walked down the aisle adorned with fresh-picked yellow plumeria blossoms. The organic vegan dinner was enjoyed at a large table filled with candles and flowers, illuminated by tiki torches, hurricane balls and the stars. During the reception, Rachel’s mother read letters and poems from their closest friends and family members who were unable to attend. As the words were read aloud, Rachel and Adam felt as if everyone they loved was with them on their special day.
Their Story: In search of a life partner, both Rachel and Adam’s parents suggested they contact an online dating service. Good thing they listened, since that’s how they found each other. Within a year they became engaged, when Adam popped the question on the top of Mount Tamalpais, north of San Francisco. Later that day, Adam surprised Rachel with a beautiful red dress to wear to a special dinner he arranged for that evening at Millennium Restaurant. When they walked into the restaurant, Adam had another surprise waiting for Rachel: he had asked her parents to fly in from Wisconsin, and they were seated at a table along with Adam’s parents, to share in the engagement celebration.
