Planning an Oahu wedding from England

[hazelle]

Hi!

 

My fiance and I are currently planning our Oahu wedding from England and would love any advice and recommendations from people. We want to marry on a beach and it will be just the two of us, so photos and videographer are important factors for us so we can show them to our families and friends when we get back.

 

We hope to marry the first week in June 2009 on a weekday, and have been looking at Waimanalo Beach as our location. We've been to Oahu before (5 years ago) and didn't visit Waimanalo, but from browsing websites it looks like the most beautiful and quiestest beach recommendaed by wedding planners. What do people think? We love also the North Shore beaches, but these locations increase wedding costs too much for us.

 

We've looked at loads of WC websites for destinations weddings and 'A Hawaii Wedding' appeal the most to us (price and service wise) and they have replied quicly to our email enquiry. Does anyone have any experience with them or can anyone recommend other good WCs?

 

It's so difficult planning from so far away so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Elle x

Congats on your upcoming wedding! Oahu will be beautiful for your wedding and flights are at a great price right now! We'll be there in March (1week in Maui and 1week on Oahu) and can hardly wait for a few days off of R&R while we're there. The beaches are beautiful.

 

Waimanalo Beach would be a beautiful choice! How many people are attending?

 

Best of luck with the plans!

G'Day Elle,

We just got back from our wedding planning trip and we actually had our photos done at Waimanalo Beach.

All I can say about it is that it is just like the photos you see. Absolutley beautiful!
