The reception was at the Picnic House - a wonderful brick structure with huge windows, a crackling fireplace, and a large dance floor.

Aaron and Djamila walking down the aisle together - a nice twist on tradition. Aren't the flower girls and ring-bearer adorable?
The gorgeous yellow tree under which Aaron and Djamila were wed as we looked on.
They each wrote vows to read to one another, and performed the ring ceremony on their own. They also wore leis to represent Djamila's ties to Hawai'i, where she grew up, and stood on a rug that several generations of Aaron's family has used in weddings. 
The ceremony was a great combination of old and new, modern and historical. The readings were short and sweet, and a friend of the couple's officiated. There was a beautiful cello performance as well, and the whole vibe was loving, relaxed, and happy.
