Hello!
My fiance and I have been engaged and researching wedding locations for some time. We've finally settled on Maui.
We're expecting to have about 20 guests. Is it necessary to have a wedding coordinator? I've been in contact with Stacey from White Orchid Weddings, but she hasn't given me any estimated expenses just yet. If we went with them, we would probably get married at the White Orchid Beach House. Has anyone else been married there or have any experience with WOW?
However, I am very very interested in having our wedding at the Olowalu Plantation House. It seems to be exactly what we've been looking for. Will we need a coordinator for this location? Is anyone also having their reception there? For those brides who aren't having a reception there, where are you having your reception? What type of budget would we be looking at for this location?
We would have a weekday wedding and have a reception at a nearby restaurant if that really kept the cost down (although I would prefer to have brunch at the same location). I've tried to do a fair amount of research, but I'm just really unclear on what the cheapest options would be to get married at Olowalu.
Any information/experiences/whatever anyone can share with me on this location would be very much appreciated!
Thanks!
