One-of-a-Kind Wedding Gown

Naturally, every bride wishes for her wedding to be unique, and what better way of doing so than by choosing a stunning gown? For Kimberly Lau, who grew up in Hawaii and now lives in Japan, our one visit to the salon of Hawaii's highly acclaimed couture designer, Anne Namba, was all it took to find an option that would make the perfect statement of individuality and elegance. The uchikake (Japanese silk wedding kimono) from which Kim's gown was fashioned, glimmered with gold embroidery and red accents, a nod to Kim's Chinese heritage. Congratulations, Kim and Chris, who celebrated their nuptials at the breathtaking Kahaluu Fish Pond!
