How to plan a Hawaiian wedding
Your wedding planning, made easy!
Planning your Hawaiian wedding can seem a little intimidating. You don't know the area, the vendors or the traditions. Don't let this stop you. Since it is such a popular place to marry, there are plenty of different ways to go about it and many different resources that you can draw from.
First decide where you would like to marry. Would you like a resort, beach, garden or chapel? Are you having a religious ceremony or a simple commitment ceremony? These are all popular options and easy to do. If you envision it, it is possible.

Should I use a Hawaii wedding planner?
Or plan my own destination wedding?
There are many who do and some who choose to go on there own. If it will be just the two of you, or just a few guests, and you plan a very simple beach wedding, you may be able to do it on your own. If you want a larger wedding with vendors, it is probably better to go with a wedding coordinator.There are wedding planners on all of the major Hawaiian Islands. Whichever you choose, there will be a knowledgeable professional with lots of quality vendor contacts to help you through the process.
If you choose to have your wedding at a resort, most of the larger ones have a wedding planner on staff. You will find they have several packages to choose from and you can add and delete the items that are important to you.
Don't feel like a package is a cookie cutter option. It is just a great starting point and will give you many different choices. You will be able to have the exact wedding that you have thought about.
