Description

SPECIAL OCCASION LEIS In the Hawaiian Islands, people mark Special Occasions in their life, by adorning them with a special lei. That is because a lei not only is a beautiful piece of art to look at with the eye, or smell with the nose, but is a beautiful art of meaning, giving, and time. Making a lei is a process, and not a simple feat quickly accomplished. Lei making is an art form with steps and processes and like needlework takes time and precision to accomplish. First one must decide on a design and medium like flowers, shells, seeds, nuts, feathers, and even teeth of animals. Then one must go collect and gather those flowers, nuts, shells etc which will take quite a bit of time. Some traditional Hawaiian leis take a thousand blooms to make a single lei! (Keep that in mind if you are on Oahu during the Kamehameha Day Parade when the Island royalties are presented on their mounts.)

After gathering enough flowers, nuts, shells, seeds etc one must then spend the time to create the lei petal by petal or shell by shell until the lei is long enough to go over your head. When someone is gifted a lei it is not only a gift of physical beauty to adorn them, but a Lei is also beautiful gift of meaning as it is instilled with the maker & givers time, effort, and love.

What better way to celebrate your special moment or occasion here in the tropical Hawaiian Islands than with the people you care about most and the beautiful gift art of the Lei. Perhaps you are visiting Hawaii for a special occasion or you already reside in the islands and have a special event coming soon.

WEDDING LEI OPTIONS

Very popular for grooms and traditional is the open-ended braided Ti leaf Lei. This can be by itself or entwined with other lei strands. The first wedding lei we suggest is the simple braided Ti Leaf Lei which you can find below.

Maile-Style Ti Leaf Lei. The next option after the simple Ti Leaf Lei is the Maile-Style Ti Leaf Lei. This is a fuller ti leaf lei that mimics the look of a traditional Maile lei. (Prices increase the more complex, involved, and intricate a lei becomes.)

White Orchid Lei Another first option we suggest looking at for Brides or Grooms is the single-strand pure white Dendrobium Orchid Lei .

Pikake Lei Another wonderful flower Lei option for weddings is the Pikake Lei. It is made of Pikake flowers, a very fragile and fleeting but beautifully perfumed flower. This flower has been a favorite locally for over a hundred years. This can be made into a rope style or triple strand Lei. please note it takes about a thousand blooms to create this lei and of all our flowers it is the most extremely perishable. These flowers are also seasonal, only available in the dry Summer months. Because of all these factors these leis are usually reserved for special occasions and often worn by brides in wedding ceremonies.

Traditional Maile Lei is also another excellent choice. This is the traditional Hawaiian wedding lei for grooms. Made of two intertwining beautiful and fragrant Maile vines. This is an open-style lei.

Maile with Flowers the Maile lei can also be upgraded to add the flower of your choice, White Orchids or the fragrant Tuberose.

HAKU LEI The Haku Lei is a very different type of Lei, it is a flower crown worn across the forehead. Haku Leis can be ordered in All White or a Color of your choice.

Lei Etiquette Lei giving is a regular part of any special occasion in the Hawaiian Islands; birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, graduations, promotions and more. There are very few tacit rules about wearing a lei. One can wear a lei at anytime for no particular reason. Receiving a lei is a welcomed celebration of affection. One should always accept a lei if given one as it is a gift of affection. It is considered rude to remove a lei from your neck in the presence of the person that gave it to you. The proper way to wear a lei is gently draped on the shoulder hanging both in front and in back.

 

*If you are looking to receive a lei when you first arrive in the islands. Please go to our Airport Lei Greetings page to order!
