Help a groom to be!

So my ex's cousin just emailed me to say that he was totally inspired by our wedding pics and is now attempting to plan a DW on Oahu with his Japanese bride (who doesn't speak much English, so is having difficulty with the research). For those of you planning (or who did plan) a 10,000$ event (25 people) where did you hold your ceremony and your reception?I'm trying to convince him to join us over here, but I think he's a bit nervous!

Maybe they could try the Bayer Estate?   That was one of the locations our WC took us too but our numbers got too big

Ke Iki Beach Bungalows is REALLY cheap!! As long as you rent out the front five bungalows for your guests, the facility rental is practically cheap. And the bungalow rental prices are incredible!! Also I believe that Greg's, the guy who manages the property, wife is Japanese and she can help a ton. She also has a catering company if you want to go through them. She has helped other brides with the decorations as well. Hope this helps!!

Hawaii caters to its Japanese tourists very well.  I would say most, if not all, of the hotels here have a japanese speaker who could help the bride plan her wedding.  Of course, that's if she would want a wedding at a hotel.   The Halekulani is a GORGEOUS hotel that specifically caters to the Japanese.  I think she'd have great luck there with someone to help her plan.
