PRIVATE SETTINGS:
We offer several exclusive Oahu venues such as waterfront settings, waterfall
view & yachts to maximize your wedding
experience. See
pay sites.
HOTEL & COMMERCIAL LOCATIONS
Most hotels in or adjacent to Waikiki
can provide a location for your wedding ceremony on their grounds for a hefty fee.
Some have special wedding accommodations such as a chapel, gazebo or arch. If you want to
hold your reception there, the site is sometimes included in the price, which
varies widely among hotels. Please let us know if you want us to coordinate
your ceremony at a Waikiki hotel or at any other pay or commercial site.

SUNSETS
Remember, the sun sets in the Western sky.
Most popular beaches near Waikiki generally face South, so sunset will be to the right
as you face the ocean.
During Winter months, you can see the sun over water from some nearby
locations. The most convenient site to Waikiki is
Magic
Island, just 5-10 minutes by car, 15-25 minutes by foot from most hotels. It is adjacent to two yacht clubs and a large marina in the direction of
downtown, across from Ala Moana Shopping Center. Since it is a
peninsula jutting out into the water from the normal shoreline (map),
the views of
Diamond Head Volcano, passing yachts and
the sunset are often superb, weather permitting. Beach, jetty and
grass settings are available there. Also great for sunsets is
East Maunalua Bay (Area 4) and Magic Island (Area 5). If you don't mind driving for an hour, the
Leeward Coast (Area 6) and North Shore (Area 7) of Oahu
offer many romantic sunset locations. For winter months, nearby sites at Diamond Head Overlook,
Diamond Head Beach, Waialae Beach Park may have fewer
people & excellent backdrops. For more information on sunsets, see
tips.
Sunrise is best seen from beaches in Areas 1,
2 & 3. There are several lovely — usually somewhat
private — (free) oceanfront park locations with settings very conducive
to a romantic personal private non-denominational ceremony. Go to the site map
for details. Our favorites are in Area 2.
Travel & After Hours' Fees:
Some
locations (such as in a forest, at a waterfall or stream, mountaintop or at a
remote beach) require extra time/effort to get there & back, so our services may be
subject to a surcharge commensurate with the effort & block of time
required for your service.
Fees apply separately to each
service provider making the trip as the effort does consume the
provider's time. Fees may also apply to services scheduled before or after
regular business hours (like sunrise or late night), on certain national holidays &
significant family days (like Easter, Thanksgiving & Valentine's Day). Travel
time may also
apply to the limousine for pick-up/drop-off outside Honolulu proper.
Prices Subject to
Change:
While every
attempt has been made to keep pricing current, this is a dynamic market and prices
are subject to change without notice. We will not increase prices once
your reservation is confirmed unless our suppliers increase fees (such as for
flowers) prior to delivery. We appreciate your understanding &
cooperation. See
Terms for full disclosure of
conditions of use. Prices do not include taxes or gratuities. Yacht
packages subject to additional 2% harbor use fees.
