Anyone use Hawaiiwedding.com Inc?

[*Lo*]

Just curious if anyone has used this company for wedding coordination services. I was not able to find any reviews online. They are able to offer wedding ceremonies right on the beach apparently and many of the resorts I looked into do not offer that, so I would like to go with a WC.

 

They want a 50% deposit at the time of booking. I am not sure if this is typical. However they ONLY coordinate the ceremony, and they have different packages for that, and then they put you in touch with the restaurant/chef for the reception to work out menus/planning.

 

A ceremony package which includes a beach ceremony at the Four Seasons Resort (apparently in a fairly secluded area), setup, a spa day at the Four Seasons for the bride is about $2,000. So 50% would be $1,000.

 

When I looked into booking wedding packages through resorts it was thousands more than that...so just a little uneasy!

 

THanks!

The beaches are public so that is how they are doing the weddings on the beach... I would look them up for complaints on google best of luck.

Aloha,

I am a wedding photographer on the Big Island. There are so many public beaches you can get married on, including the Four Seasons. Every resort has to have public access to the beaches by law. There are some great wedding coordinators on the island, personal one on one that can tell locations, etc. Depending on how large your wedding is, a lot of it can even be done by yourself. A 50% deposit is fairly common. I know for my photography services I have a 30% deposit.

 

 

Best,
