that perfect location for their big day. All of the islands offer a
choice of first class wedding locations and reception venues.
All marriages in Hawaii require the issue of a Hawaiian marriage
license permit before the marriage can take place.

The options are endless for formal and informal Hawaiian weddings. Day

special place.... anything is possible. World class service
and amenities are available from the myriad of
hotels and resorts throughout
the islands that specialize in wedding services, catering and

The
Kauai Wedding
Professionals Association is an organization dedicated to
promoting the wedding industry on the island of Kauai. Their
website has an index of all the wedding related businesses on the
island.
The advantages of a
Hawaiian wedding followed by the honeymoon at the same location are
obvious and very cost effective. Many of the leading
island hotels
and resorts offer special wedding and honeymoon packages that
involve a marriage service in the gardens or on the beach, followed
by a honeymoon in a private luxury suite/villa, candlelit dinners,
sunset cruises, champagne, flowers and keepsakes.
Hawaii has been a
popular destination for honeymoons for many generations and the
islands have worked hard at attracting this particular category of
visitor. As a result there is a huge range of honeymoon options to
choose from in all price ranges across most of the islands.
