The Maile leaf can be used for many occasions such as weddings, graduations and dances. In Hawaiian culture the Maile lei is used for offerings at hula performances and is referred to "lei of royalty" which signifies respect and honor.
Honu or Sea Turtle symbolizes luck, endurance and long life. It is often depicted as a guardian spirit or Aumakua.
