Oahu Wedding Newbie

[Britali]

Heya! We are getting married in June 2012 on the beautiful island of Oahu. I am not only a newbie to this site but a newbie to weddings. I am looking for advice, tips, reviews, & best deals. We live in Oahu (he is currently deployed with the military) so we save on airfare & hotel (although for our guests this is a destination wedding). We are paying for everything for our wedding out of our pocket and are not using credit so looking for our best options & making sure we get the best for our money. I appreciate any help you guys can provide hehe. For example, is it more cost effective to go with packages here or attempt it on my own?

I am not sure how much info there is on this forum with respects to planning a DW in Hawaii, but I suggest you take a day and comb the forum for information. There is a section specifically for weddings in Hawaii. I'm not sure what your budget is but you have some time to do some comparisons and research. One of my close friends had her wedding on Oahu last year and from what she told me, I think there are ways that you can save if you attempt it on your own. However, packages I'm sure are less work on your part. So it depends on what your priorities are as well. 

 

Good luck and happy planning!
