Cafe Julia is one of the most popular locations for a wedding lately. It has a classic architectural charm, delicious food and is located next to an actual palace.,,Iolani Palace. Along with that, you've also got a large outdoor courtyard to hold a ceremony as well as an indoor restaurant for cocktails and/or a reception area. And although I've never seen it happen, they also provide an indoor ballroom just in case it rains.

You'll see in the pictures above, Chad and Melissa, took advantage of the historic setting of Iolani Palace for their pre-wedding photos. For the ceremony, the bold columns along with the majestic draping provided a perfect backdrop as they said their vows. These amazing photos were taken by Melissa and Balbino of Vivid Fotos.

As a bonus, I snapped this shot of Melissa using her kung fu skills to get just the right shot.
