The Lei Exchange  
The spirit of aloha is a way of life and well being embraced by native Hawaiians
for hundreds of years…Traditionally the word aloha was a greeting reserved for loved ones by:
First rubbing noses and then inhaling each other’s breathe (alo = in the presence of, ha = breath of life).
In your union living your lives together in the spirit of aloha acknowledges the divine within each of you,
and creates a solid foundation of trust and unity. These beautiful leis are twined and carefully bound together
with love, a reflection of the love and aloha that you have and hold for each other. Living aloha, you will share
the path of the heart; to go beyond where you've never been in your capacity to love and be loved. It is a
courageous path, for it is the path of the heart that leads form this day; toward many beautiful tomorrow
and more happiness then either of you imagined possible. As you exchange these leis:
You will now begin to weave your own lei of life.
