Hawaii Weddings & Honeymoons
Many people dream of having Hawaii vacations, but they think it costs too much. On top of that, people want Hawaii weddings, but they don't because of money! However, it does not have to be that way. When having a wedding in Hawaii, the main thing that you have to worry about is getting there. That is what Hawaii wedding packages are for. After that, it's all smooth sailing, as far as price goes. Today we are going to talk about a few tips you can use for having a wedding in Hawaii. These tips can be put to great use in planning your Hawaii wedding.
The first tip is simple, because you have to think simple. Although you want a lot of people to come to your Hawaii wedding, the more people that come, the more it's going to cost. Thus, do not invite everyone and their brother. Keep the amount of people that you bring along on your wedding limited to just a few selected people. After all, half of the people that you end up inviting are not going to be able to come. So thinking about inviting close family members, bridesmaids and that's it.
Second, do your own bar! This means do not pay extra money to rent a bar or have a caterer take care of your bar. If you do, then you are going to pay a ton of money. Buy your own alcohol and bring it to the after party. Of course, if you do not want to buy alcohol, then you can just have a dry wedding. This will save you a ton of money either way you choose to go with it. However, if you have to have some alcohol there, then you buy your own. It's the only way to go.
Next, do not buy the most expensive hall that you can find. Sure it may look nice, but it's going to cost a lot. Most of the time you can find low key halls that do not cost a lot. That is your main goal. Do some research online to see what kind of halls that you can fine. When you find one that is well within your price range (not just a little and not just out), then you have found the hall that you need to use.
When it comes to decorating your wedding, do not get caught up in all the different knick knacks that you can buy for weddings. Just focus on the main things that you have to buy. After all, the theme is going to be Hawaii, and you are already in Hawaii! How much more themed can you get then that! At the same time keep it a casual wedding. Hawaii is a very laid back place, and it's the perfect place to not dress up if you do not want to. Why dress up when you can choose to get married on the beach in your bikini and a nice throw?
The next thing that you have to think about for a wedding in Hawaii is what you are going to eat on your wedding day. The truth of the matter is that there are a ton of great foods that will stick with the Hawaii theme that you have going on. First of all, you will want to do some kind of salad. There are a ton of great salads that go great with Hawaii. One that people seem to like is the Spicy Caesar salad. This is normally served with a cup of crisp noodles. You could even choose to go with grilled pineapple salad with a guava dressing. After the salad, it will be time for the main course. For this you may want to do some grilled fish with some grilled vegetables. On top of that, try to give the fish a nice tomato basil dressing mixed with a hint of lime. Also note that tropical fruit fish is another great way to go as well, but the choice is up to you. For dessert you can not go wrong with some Kona Coffee Cheesecake. If you have people that do not like Cheesecake (because there are people out their that will not touch the stuff), then you need to get a Chocolate Decadence.
As you can see, Hawaii weddings are pretty simple to plan for. Everything from the food menu to the decorations do not cost a lot. All you need to do is make sure that you do not invite too many people. This can easily be done by making a list of only the main people that need to be there and inviting them. Inviting too many people is just going to cost you a ton of money, and no one wants to pay for all of that. If you can keep it simple, then you can get married in Hawaii without making your wallet go flat.
