Ok so my wedding date is Aug. 22, 2013. I have a ways to go, so for now I am trying to pin down the best island to get married on. My original idea is to find a beach front vacation home with its own private beach to hold my ceremony and the home's backyard can host the reception. My ideal ceremony is to have our feet bare in the waves, my dress flowing with each wave. I want it just before sunset so that I get that beautiful back drop and dont need a arch or anything. I am not sure of how many guests I will have, again I just started planning.
I have never been to Hawaii before in my life, it has always been a dream of mine to go and vactation there. So as far as knowing what island hosts what, I am completely unaware. My fiance also has never been, we are trying to make our special day more like a special week, like a weddingmoon. lol.
So for island specifications, we dont really know what we want, other than a nice secluded beach, some touristy things to partake in and also somewhat of a party vibe for all my party family and friends. I have been doing some research and it looks like my choices are down to Maui or Oahu. I think I am more in love with the sceanary in Maui.
I also have found this wedding planning place that is doing a super special deal. Feel free to check it out and give me some feedback the website is shangrilaevents.com.
ANY and ALL ADVICE IS MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
