Stella Mania: Tea House Shower

In less than two months, my good friend since grade school/junior high (the official start of friendship is vastly different depending on who you ask) will be standing at the altar committing the rest of her life to a very good man. It's relationships like hers, commenced and confirmed in less than two years, that have me convinced that time does not define a relationship. Quite contrarily, I'm certain it is the relationship that defines time as you know it.

To help send off the bride-to-be into the next chapter of her life, eleven ladies celebrated her numbered days as a single woman at a Japanese tea house in her hometown of Hawaii. The venue was quaint but spacious, rendering it perfect for this particular bride's shower.

I captured the day to the best of my amateur photographic ability. If anyone is tech-curious, the weapon of choice was a Canon Powershot S95, an early Christmas present from the man.

Kellie, you're going to make a beautiful bride and an amazing wife. Congratulations to you and Tom.
