Main > Destination Weddings > Destination Wedding in Hawaii Destination Wedding in Hawaii Home | Submit Search Written by Global Aloha Weddings A destination wedding in Hawaii is fast becoming the choice for couples from all around the world to say "I DO." Brides see themselves in a simple Hawaiian Wedding Dress, draped in a fragrant flower lei and with a Haku (head lei) veil of white orchids to accent her bouquet. Envisioning an oceanfront gazebo adorned with tropical flowers, she can almost hear the clear falsetto voices singing the Hawaiian Wedding Song- first in English, then in Hawaiian. The Bride and Groom kiss and are whisked away in an Outrigger Canoe into the sunset. Imagine the video of this ceremony! Just a romantic notion? Too far, too costly, too complicated? Not really, the vacation location wedding/honeymoon is becoming more popular and is usually less expensive than the big family hometown wedding-reception-dinner extravaganzas of the 80's. It can also be a lot more fun for everyone. If a Hawaiian wedding is your dream, a good place to start is with one of the many wedding planners in the islands. Try the First Hawaiian Wedding and Bridal Directory, or type "Hawaiian Weddings" into the search field in Yahoo. According to Scott Tambling, a local coordinator who has planned literally thousands of Hawaiian weddings, "the best place to start is with your making your travel and room arrangements. Once you have a definite date, you can contact a reputable wedding company such as Global Aloha Weddings and make arrangements for your ceremony." Tambling suggests you shop around to compare prices and packages and says "a couple can easily arrange their dream ceremony, complete with professional photography and videography for under $1000." Tambling goes on to say "Picking an island is another question that is hard for people who have never been to Hawaii before." He suggests you have your ceremony and reception if any on Oahu (the island on which the city of Honolulu and the resort area of Waikiki is based) and then fly over to Maui, Kauai or the Big Island of Hawaii for an official honeymoon. "The prices for wedding services are generally much higher on the outer islands and it is easier to obtain a marriage license in Honolulu. It also enables the couple to visit more than one island and really have a honeymoon within a honeymoon." The most popular sites on Oahu include Diamond Head Park, at the end of Waikiki, best of all it is free of charge; The Royal Hawaiian Hotel, for a more elaborate ceremony, but on the expensive side; and Haiku Gardens, in the Tropical Forests of the Windward Side of the Island. Another option is to have your ceremony onboard one of the many pleasure boats based in Waikiki. A wedding at sea with the Hawaiian sunset as a backdrop can make wedding photos appear as if out of a Fairy tale. To begin planning, answer the following: How many will attend? What is your budget? Where will you stay, hotel or condo? How does the wedding look in your dreams? On the beach, in a Gazebo or Church, by a waterfall or a rain forest, at sunset or on a bright Hawaiian morning? What type of amenities do you desire, photography, videography, florals, entertainment and transportation? These are the questions a wedding planner will need to get your "vision" and put together a proposal just for you. Want to be notified when new articles are added?

It's the most energized town on the island, and you can feel it from the first moment you walk down Front St. The main attractions of Lahaina are within a few blocks of each other. All along Front St., the main drag, and on the side streets are innumerable restaurants, shops and hideaways where you can browse or recoup your energy. Some of the more interesting sites are the Banyan Tree in the main plaza, the Courthouse, the Baldwin Home, and the Carthaginian II. Ka'anapali with its 4 miles of glorious beach, is Maui's westernmost point. It begins where Lahaina ends and continues north along Rte. 30 until it runs into the village of Honokowai. Ka'anapali is Maui's resort coast with 500 acres of fun and relaxation. There are 6 luxury hotels, a handful of beautifully appointed condominium properties, a shopping mall and museum, 36 holes of world-class golf, many tennis courts, and a multitude of restaurants.

HAWAIIAN WEDDING SONGS Wedding Songs Two songs are most-often played at weddings with a Hawai`i theme: "Hawaiian Wedding Song" -- which is more lovely when sung as its original Hawaiian composition, "Ke Kali Nei Au" . And you'll also hear the beautiful "Lei Aloha, Lei Makamae" ("Forevermore"), especially at weddings in Hawai`i. You'll find these songs on the following CDs. Click on "CLIP" to hear just the song -- or click on the album title to view entire playlist Lei Aloha, Lei Makamae ~ Forevermore ARTISTS ALBUM TITLE CLIPS BRIGHT, TERESA Painted Tradition BYRD, JERRY Byrd Of Paradise DILLINGHAM, PETER & FRIENDS Limited Edition Vol II HAWAII CALLS Hawaiian Wedding Song HAWAII CALLS Memories of Hawaii Calls - Vol 1 HO, DON Hawaiian Favorites KAALA BOYS Solid KALEIKINI, DANNY Hawaii's Ambassador of Aloha KANE, ELODIA He Leo Ohana NEW HAWAIIAN BAND Classic Collector Series NEW HAWAIIAN BAND Hawaii's Greatest Hits Vol II PAHINUI, GABBY Hawaiian Slack Key Vol 2 PAHINUI, GABBY The Best of Hawaiian Slack Key with Gabby Pahinui PAHINUI, MARTIN Martin Pahinui Hawaiian Wedding Song ~ Ke Kali Nei Au ARTIST ALBUM TITLE CLIPS AIKO, GARY Mai Poina Oe Iau AKAKA, ALAN & THE ISLANDERS Hawaii's Golden Treasures BYRD, JERRY Byrd Of Paradise DE MELLO, JACK Music of Hawaii DENNY, MARTIN Greatest Hits HAWAII CALLS Hawaiian Wedding Song HAWAII CALLS Hawaiian Wedding Song (instrumental) HAWAII CALLS Hawaii's Greatest Hits Vol 1 HAWAII CALLS Memories of Hawaii Calls - Vol 1 HAWAII CALLS Music from the Land of Aloha HO, DON Gold HO, DON A Night in Hawai`i ISAACS, BARNEY & BILLY HEW LEN Steel Guitar Magic Hawaiian Style KAHAUANU LAKE TRIO The Best of Kahauanu Lake Trio Vol. I KALAPANA Full Moon Tonight KANE, RAY Wa`ahila KEAWE, JOHN Auhele KOHALA Island Treasures LEE, RILEY & PETERSON, JEFF Maui Morning LEED, MELVEEN Melveen's Hawaiian Country Hits LEONANI SERENADERS Hawaiian Hospitality MAKAHA SONS & FRIENDS Na Pua O Hawaii MAUNALUA Maunalua MERRILL, BUDDY Beyond the Reef MILLER, CHARLES SERENADERS The Heart of Hawaii NEW HAWAIIAN BAND Classic Collector Series PAHINUI, GABBY The Best of Hawaiian Slack Key with Gabby Pahinui PAVAO, DENNIS Sweet Leilani POOKELA Moonlight Melodies of Waikiki ROYAL HAWAIIAN BAND Live at Carnegie Hall VARIOUS A Musical Memento of the Islands VARIOUS Aloha Festivals Hawaiian Falsetto VARIOUS Dreams of Hawaii (instrumental) VARIOUS Dreams of Hawaii VARIOUS Hawaii's Sunset Melodies VARIOUS Lei of Stars VARIOUS Maui's Sunset Music VARIOUS Memories of Hawaii VARIOUS Romantic Songs of Hawaii VARIOUS Songs to Hula VARIOUS The Best of Hawaii's Melodies VEARY, EMMA The Best of Emma Veary ©2005 Hawaiian Music Island - MELE.COM -- ALL RIGHTS RESERVED All soundclips on MELE.COM are used with the express permission of the artists/record labels and may not be duplicated Site Map | Contact Us | Site Guide | Submit Halau | Submit Concert

" A n interminable language...it is one of the oldest living languages of the earth, as some conjecture, and may well be classed among the best ...the thought to displace it, or to doom it to oblivion by substituting the English language, ought not for a moment to be indulged. L ong live the grand old, sonorous, poetical Hawaiian language." ~The Rev. Lorenzo Lyons(Makua Laiana), 1878, composer of "Hawai`i Aloha" , missionary. Why Learn Hawaiian? 20 Pono Reasons T he reasons to learn and cherish the Hawaiian language are many and varied. Ultimately, the desire... or the need... comes from within. I received the call to return home , "gift-wrapped in song and chant." Keali`i Reichel was my `ânela (angel, which means "messenger") and my desire to learn Hawaiian was ignited. Whether your desire burns like a raging fire, glows softly, or just barely smolders, it is enough to get you started here. Perhaps, for you, too, the need will become apparent. What's New?
