MAIN Party Ideas Weddings Wedding Receptions Hawaii

What better than planning a romantic vacation so you can pop the question and get engaged in Hawaii?

Answer: actually getting MARRIED in Hawaii...and planning a tropical dream RECEPTION for all your guests!

Whether it's formal or casual, indoor or outdoor, Hawaii has everything you need to make your wedding one to remember.

From Oahu and Honolulu, or Maui to Hilo and the Big Island and indeed throughout the Aloha State, you'll find some of America's top choices in traditional hotel and resort reception sites and banquet halls.

Also keep in mind unusual venues like historic manors, romantic inns, museums, parks and gardens, (how about rainforest under a waterfall?) yachts and boat cruises, as well as other Hawaii beach wedding locations.

Wherever you choose to have your Hawaii reception, know that the state is famous for catering to wedding and receptions so popular throughout the islands, so much so that it has become almost an industry in itself.

Top places for wedding receptions in Hawaii include (from left): The Kahala Hotel & Resort in Honolulu;
Paradise Cove Luau in Honolulu; The Four Seasons Hotel on Maui; Na ‘Āina Kai Botantical Gardens on
Kilauea; and The Fairmont Orchid Hotel on the Big Island.

It's always best to shop around for wedding coordinators who can arrange everything for you - the ceremony, reception and all that goes into a wedding that will be cherished and remembered for a lifetime. It's also smart to look for package deals that can help defray the costs of a Hawaiian wedding and reception, leaving enough cash left over to enjoy the perfect Hawaiian honeymoon!
