Imagine . . . you and your companion arrive to find a fantastic accommodation, totally
Hawaiian, private and classy and comfortable, you know that you really are here
. . . and after your first night of blissful rest, your journey into aloha begins
as you sit, as a couple, with your feet in the warm tropical water, sacred turtles
splashing nearby, as a kahuna blesses your divine joining . . . the next day a limousine
takes the two of you to the caldera of Pele herself, Hawaiian Goddess of Fire and
Aloha, to bond you and your love with the pure heart and mana of Hawaii . . . and
on that one magic day of vows, a beautiful service in one of the most sacred places
in paradise as the waves crash gently ashore all around . . . followed at last by
a well-deserved massage for both! What is your Hawaiian dream of romance?
A vow ceremony is typically just you as a couple, as opposed to
a larger wedding ceremony.
For your wedding, simply work with us to select a location to hold
your event and your journey into love has begun. We'll take care of the rest as
if you were our own ohana (family) because for as long as you are here, you
are! Begin or renew the great bliss of your life immersed in our aloha.
We do have access to a variety of stunning private and public gathering places, from
cliff-sides to white and black sand beaches. We can also help you arrange to have
your sacred ceremony with a kahuna in an ancient church, on a ranch with panoramic
views, at the base of a waterfall, even on a sailboat if you prefer. Our unique
connection with the people on the island absolutely assures that these are experiences
that no one else can match at any price.
We also work closely with Kona-side resorts and others on the island such as Hawaii
Island Retreat if you choose to have a reception right after the ceremony. If you
would like our assistance in selecting or providing a location (and any permits
or permission needed) for your sacred service, based on your party size or any other
preferences to match your picture of what can be, please just ask us.
If you like, we can help you plan your wedding and honeymoon from beginning to end.
We will assist with travel, hotel, overall planning, specific ceremony choices and
arrange any desired activities. If you feel it is appropriate, we will even provide
you with your own wedding web page on our website that your invited guests can use
for previews and information and to contact you or us quickly and easily.
Just tell us what you want, we will do our very best to make it yours on your most
special of days.
