I'm working with Deanne at Precious Maui Weddings and have NO complaints at all yet. I did a TON of research and found her packages seemed to offer the most for the money. And when it comes to communication she's been great! Obviously there's a time difference but she has always replied to every email the same day depending on what time I've sent it. I've also asked her for referrals and opinions on some things and she's responded everytime, she's been very helpful! And she's been very up front with cost...nothing is hidden.

Before Thanksgiving is an off season for Hawaii and that's why we chose that time in early November. So pretty much after school starts and before the holidays.

I was wondering if all the honeymoon registry websites charge a fee, are there any that don't? Which site did you use to register for your honeymoon? And how exactly does it work? The company just sends you a check for the total amount given by your guest is the way I understood it, or am I wrong? Has this question already been asked? If so, I can't find it...

It sounds like you are spoiling your guest! Thanks for sharing!

What a great find, thanks for sharing!

I saw those when I was running in to get a quick something and totally forgot to go back! And they're already out at my Target, Dang!

Thanks for sharing, I love the ring bearer shirt!

Welcome and happy planning!

Congrats! So glad to see another Hawaii Bride! Happy planning, this site is so helpful!

Thanks ladies! kellis, I grew up in San Jose but now live closer to Tahoe. I love the Bay Area but I'm enjoying small town living for now I hear San Ramon is very nice, haven't spent much time in the North Bay though. Would you recommend any other restaurants that would be good for a reception dinner? I've done a lot of research but those 2 restaurants have had a good offering at the $55/head price. I'm not looking to go any higher then that, and it seems what I've found is most of the nicer restaurants have a higher price point per head then $55. If you have any recommendations I can look up their price. Thanks!

If you're having a dinner reception at a restaurant where are you having it? After allll my research and suggestions I'm stuck between 2 places: The Plantation House in Kapalua or Leilani's in Lahaina. I've received quotes from both places for the same price point per head and Leilani's has come in a little less which I like. But The Plantaion House is nicer but with more restrictions but seems more appropriate for a reception dinner. And Leilani's offers steak & lobster as one of the dinner options and my FI is all over that, and I was told Leilani's is a little more casual. Have you been to either place? Are they both appropriate for a reception dinner? Any advice/suggestions would be helpful! Thanks!

Thank you for sharing! I loved your hair, i may have to add it to my inspiration folder.
