"Ke Kali Nei Au (Waiting For Thee)" was written by King in 1925 for his operetta, Prince of Hawaii. It was written as a duet for baritone and soprano. It was first recorded by Columbia in 1928 with Helen Desha Beamer and Sam Kapu, accompanied by Don Barriento's Hawaiian Orchestra.
The song was first introduced to the public by the Royal Hawaiian Band and its two singers, John Paoakalani Heleluhe and Lizzie Alohikea.
Andy Williams recorded it as "Hawaiian Wedding Song," in 1959.

Hawaiians prefer "Lei Aloha Lei Makamae" as their wedding song; composed by King in 1934. It too is a duet for baritone and soprano.
