A traditional trousseau was once considered a treasure trove of meaningful possessions stored in a hope chest. It still is. The modern day trousseau is a mere extension of a stylish bride's daily accoutrements. Her bridal party's wardrobe should include elegant frocks, luxe jewelry, and playful accessories that will express her impeccable fashion sense on the wedding day and for posterity's sake. The grand milieu of The Royal Hawaiian Hotel presented a befitting setting for our couture fashion shoot, Royal Trousseau.

The enduring look of a jet black tuxedo from Neiman Marcus if finished with classic English cuff links by Thomas Pink. A vintage Italian Vespa is an enviable wedding coach.

A black Prada suit, classic Prada shoes and a fitted white shirt are paired with a Thomas Pink ite. Tiare and Olivia wear ivory dupioni silk flower girl dresses by Kaya Couture. The bride modles Vera Wang's blush Matte taffeta mermaid gown, with a strand of multicolor freshwater pearls and 18K gold "capella" earings with daimonds and South Sea golden pearls from Luna Jewes' Byzantine Pearls Collection.

The legendary romance of The Royal Hawaiian Hotel is an idyllic setting for a wedding. Lush tropical grounds provide a secluded haven for the luxury resort, located on the famous shores of Waikiki Beach. The hotel is a marvelous blend of old and new-the timeless allure of classic Hawaii adjacent to the chic ateliers of Gucci, Prada, Cartier and Hermes.

Vera Wang's dark ivory crepe back satin wrap gown with waffle organza ruffled train is the epitome of elegance. The European panache of Prada is accented with a vivid necktie by Thomas Pink.
