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?

We could have been relaxing on the famous Green Sand Beach at South Point of the Big Island of Hawaii. But in the spirit of adventure, we were instead exploring the world underground. I had convinced my husband that it would be neat to go hiking to see flowing lava at the Kilauea Volcano on the first night of our weekend getaway, and then get up early the next morning to go caving in 1,000-year-old lava tubes. He was agreeable, even after twisting his ankle on the initial hiking excursion, which lasted past midnight. Once we got back to our cabin at Volcanoes National Park, we understood why each room had a Jacuzzi. But we weren't about to let our sore muscles get the best of us. Watching the orange glow of waxy-looking lava hiss into the ocean had intoxicated us. We wanted to see tunnels formed by the molten stuff. The Dawn Patrol So we caught just enough sleep to wake at the crack of dawn and drive to South Point in search of a labyrinth of lava tubes at a place called Kula Kai Caverns. To get there, we punched in a pass code and entered a remote neighborhood built on lava rock. Then we saw our guide's landmark, a thatched hut that looked like something out of "Gilligan's Island." Our tour guide, Kathlyn Richardson, led us into the yurt and handed us spelunking helmets, lights, gloves and kneepads to gear up. We looked like coal miners without the soot, and we were about to go on a two-hour spelunking tour. So she tested us a little. Would we like to try shimmying up parts of the cave and crawling around in tunnels? We were game. Let me just say my previous experience in caves was limited to a guided tour years earlier on a heavily traveled pathway at Kentucky's Mammoth Cave. Although it is considered the granddaddy of American caves - and the longest cave in the world - I saw only the easy-access "tourist" part of it. No shimmying through narrow passageways was involved. And I had seen Thurston Lava Tube, a major attraction on the drive around Crater Rim Drive at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. But that was just a peek into a cavelike shell. I had never seen much of caves or could explain the difference between stalactites and stalagmites. Somehow, the idea of exploring a pitch-black volcanic cavern still appealed to me. That's just the kind of tourist Kula Kai Cavern founder Ric Elhard wants to educate. "I started crawling around in caves when I was 12 years old," said Elhard, a California native who bought property on the Big Island because he knew there were caves underneath it. He and other cavers have since mapped out miles of lava tubes that crisscross the area. "We're not doing big numbers, but we saw huge potential," Elhard said. "We want to be more of an educational tour. We want people to learn and understand about the archaeological aspects of caves." Treks Of Your Choice He and other guides lead small groups, even children as young as 5, through parts of the caves on tours that last from easy half-hour strolls to more challenging half-day explorations. When my husband and I were there, it was just the two of us, following Richardson into a braided maze she knew by heart and getting a taste of massive chambers and small spaces formed by volcanic gases rising through cooling magma 1,000 years ago. A National Park tour, it is not. It's a fledgling operation that's loosely organized, and sometimes the battery-powered lights on the well-used equipment go out. But it's definitely an adventure tour. We broke a sweat, despite the cool 68-degree temperature inside the cave, and had to watch our footing navigating craggy rocks that seemed to grow out from above and below. One of the most interesting parts was when we turned off our head lamps and sat in the dark, listening closely to dripping water and the sound of ourselves breathing. I'll admit I liked climbing and scrambling over loose rocks much better than belly-crawling through the tight spots. The crawling part made me think about being swallowed by hot lava as I tried to untangle myself from its pointy fingers. Underground Point Of View But squirming around on my hands and knees gave me a feeling not just for overcoming claustrophobia, but also for looking at a volcanic island from a different perspective. I thought about the cave dwellers who must have used the spaces for shelter. I wondered how long the kukui nuts, which contained oil that Hawaiians used to light like candles, had been left on the rock shelves that we passed. I pictured the lava flowing through the walls I could now touch. The tour captured my imagination. Yes, I could have spent the day relaxing on the beach. What I did instead made me feel like an explorer. And to me, discovering a world I had never seen before made the vacation feel complete.

In an effort to make this an unforgettable experience, Polynesian Adventures will take you as close as possible to the volcanic activity. Please read the following cautionary comments before selecting this tour. When lava enters the ocean, the intense heat produces a plume cloud with dangerous and potentially life threatening toxic gases, super heated steam, and hydrochloric acid. Airborne particles are a hazard to your eyes and lungs. Watch for shifting winds that can blow acid mist clouds over you. Leave the area at once. Where lava enters the ocean the coastline is extended. This new surface is unstable and may collapse at at any time without warning. Do not approach areas where lava is entering the ocean. Sharp lava cracks and holes, loose rock, and thin crust greatly increase your risk of getting hurt. Falling on lava can result in nasty wounds. Wear sturdy walking shoes. Use sunscreen, wear a hat, and drink plenty of fluids. If inland flows are present, and you use caution, you may have an opportunity to view fresh lava close up. Follow marked routes and your guides instructions. Molten lava is 2000 degrees F, so keep a safe distance and never go into areas where your escape route may be cut off. Do not throw objects into lava as this can cause burns from spattering lava or eye injuries from airborne volcanic glass fragments. BE AWARE, STAY ALERT, AND USE CAUTION AT ALL TIMES, DO NOT TAKE CHANCES. Terms and Conditions Please note: the name you enter at the time of booking must be exactly as appears on your photo I.D.
