I agree...the more ideas the better.

WOW! We will have to compare pictures.

Thanks! I am in Florissant, MO. I couldnt find anything cheaper than $900 unless I wanted to spend 16 hours flying and making 2 stops for $677 which means that I will probably have to leave a daily earlier.

WC gave me these options. I picked the second one. Martin Wyand at Reflections Photography John Motelewski at JOHN-PIERRES.COM John Henry at John Henry Photography

I just found out that whale watching season is December - April.

I'm leaving from St. Louis as well. I got an email from travelocity saying the tickets were $657 but that was flights through September. I am hoping to get another email here shortly for flights in October.

BUMMER......I'm hoping someone lets me use there miles.

Thats great. You will have to tell me all about it since you are going before me.

DC......i just realized that you will be getting married the day that I will be leaving Maui. Well if you are interested in Golf the LPGA will be going on that week if you want to stop buy the Kapalua Villas.

My budget is tight as well so we only plan on doing the Ziplines since we will be staying at the Kapalua villas. We will also invite our guests to join us at the Old Lahaina Luau | Official Website the day after the wedding. Our situation is a little different.....we ended up going to the courthouse last October because we were too anxious so this is kinda of like a vow renewal for us just to please our friends and family. So needless to say we are spending less on the wedding and more on our honeymoon. We are going to party like ROCKSTARS!!! Who knows if/when we will ever go back to Hawaii.

My colors are seablue and gold and I found the perfect invitations. CHECK IT OUT!!!!! Invitations By Dawn

Oh Ok..thanks! I talked it over with my WC and since our wedding starts at 4:30 and the luau begins at 5:30 we would be cutting it close so we decided to keep our reservation for the Pineapple Grill and the invite our guests to join us the next day at the Luau.

DC....YOU ROCK!!!! This is great information. I'm planning for my October wedding right now and this is good information to have. We are staying in the Kapalua Villas so I know that I will going to the market to pick up a few items.

Azhuskergirl....Do you plan on covering the cost for everyone? That sounds like a really good idea. I have about 28 people coming but I dont want to spend the money on dinner for everyone like I had planned at the Pineapple Grill.

OH gosh......I feel silly now.

Sorry Chiquita no I dont have a list in Kihei and Wailea. I always wanted to get married in Maui. Pisces.......my wedding coordinator name is Dina Hill and she is at the Ritz Carlton.

My wedding coordinator ROCKS!!! Here is a list of things to do that she gave me since we are not having a reception.

Hey! I am getting married at the Ritz Carlton in Kapalua, Maui. We decided to cut cost and have a dinner for our 28 guests at the Pineapple Grill The Pineapple Grill at Kapalua Resort. Then my wedding coordinator gave me a list of places of the nite life. We know that it closes early so we decided to change out of our wedding attire and have a night on the town with guests that want to join us. Since most of them will be around our age it will be a nice crowd. (Please see my other thread entitled (MAUI NIGHTLIFE)
