01 / THE STORY

The legend
of the naupaka

In one telling of the legend, two lovers are separated between the mountains and the sea. In each place, naupaka blooms as half a flower.

Brought together, the two blossoms form a whole. Our hand-painted arch takes its cue from that story: two halves joined for your ceremony, ready for a second act after dark.

From ceremony to celebration ↘

02 / FROM DAY TO NIGHT

One piece,
two moments

FROM THE VOWS TO THE LAST DANCEStaging concept

After the vows, we can separate the arch and reposition its two halves on either side of your stage—carrying the design through the celebration and making the most of one special piece.

We can handle the move and lighting setup, or work with your lighting designer to bring it together. Repositioning and lighting are arranged in advance with your venue and quoted separately.

03 / THE STORY, IN THEIR HANDS

Custom programs
to match

Carry the naupaka story from the ceremony backdrop to each guest’s seat. Custom wedding programs pair a delicate gold-print flower outline with the lore behind the two blossoms.

We can also weave your own story into the program—whether one of you is drawn to the ocean and the other to the mountains, or another connection feels more like you.

  • Gold-print naupaka artwork
  • The naupaka lore and ceremony details
  • Personalized names, date, and wording
