I actually think it WAS the Smith family! I remember that they had many other things too, but that Luau was one of the highlights of my trip! So fun and the scenery is GREAT for some photo ops!

And I agree that you should DEFINITELY get a convertible! Driving on the Island is AMAZING!!!

Also, it might have just been where I was staying, but it seemed like most places closed pretty early. It is definitely a wake up and do things during the day type of island (which I loved!) but very little nightlife... it was exactly what I was wanting, but just wanted to give you a heads up. Some locals told me that the big Island has more nightlife... and Maui. But I seriously LOVED Kauai! IT seemed like everyone we met was on their honeymoon! It is so romantic! I would definitely be going there if I hadn't already been there! We wanted a place that neither of us had been.

Feel free to PM me if you girls have any questions!!! Can't wait to see all of your pics!

I second the helicopter tour idea. I photographed a wedding there a while back, and the day after the wedding my wife and I took a helicopter tour of the island. It was really incredible - the views and scenery were spectacular. If you take the tour, you won't be disappointed, and I highly recommend it!

Have fun in Kauai!

We're going there in September for a friend's wedding. We will have been married 4 months then, so it will be high time for another trip! We can't wait! We're staying on the North shore.

There is an ATV Tour to the movie locations that is really fun too.
This sounds really cool! We are going to Hawaii again this summer and will be on Kauai in the beginning of August, the first time we went there we did the Helicopter tour but I love movies with Hawaii in them so I may just try the ATV tour this time!

I stayed at the Princeville Hotel. It's a great hotel with a great location and views of the North Shore but it's getting run down slightly. You see, it's getting shut down this upcoming fall to be turned into a St. Regis. We saw what the new rooms will look like and I have to say, they're outstanding! I really wouldn't stay anywhere else on the North Shore and if you're going to Kauai, it has to be the North Shore! It's not an all-inclusive resort so you tip just like you would here in the States.
