The Lei Exchange is a beautiful Hawaiian tradition symbolic of love, affection, and mutual respect for one another. Normally exchanged between the bride and groom, as well as other members of the family. During the lei exchange, the officiant explains the significance of the leis stating that the lei is an unbroken circle that represents your eternal commitment and devotion to one another. The beauty of each individual flower is not lost when it becomes a part of the lei but is enhanced because of the strength of its bond. ​The Lei Exchange is a wonderful opportunity to include parents and children in the ceremony as well. ​
