Planning A Great Hawaii Wedding March 4, 2010
Posted by Pat in : just thinking , trackbackGetting married in a far away destination, such as Hawaii, is appealing to many couples. If you’re thinking of a Hawaii wedding, then you’ll have to be sure to plan everything out well. Planning any wedding is hard work, but a destination wedding where you cannot physically oversee everything is even harder. Therefore it’s a good idea to have someone in Hawaii to help you out such as a Hawaii wedding planner.
When you get married in another place you have to do quite a bit of juggling and logistical management. You will not be there always to make the decisions about flowers and the cake, so you must trust someone else to do it for you. Luckily, with the internet you can video conference and send photos to make the process easier.
Most people have no idea what is involved in getting married on an island so far away from the mainland. You have to organize the flowers, the venues for the ceremony and the reception - and if they aren’t the same, then you have the transportation between these to set up. In fact there are 101 things to get done at a time when you feel like just sitting down and crying. Most people don’t, of course, and just get on with it because they don’t have the time to think of themselves.
You have no time to relax or do anything but make sure that the wedding dresses and those for the bridesmaids are delivered on time to the right place. If you have page boys or flower girls then their clothes also have to be selected and their delivery assured. You could save a lot of that by purchasing an ‘off the peg’ dress, but why do that if you want your dress designed as you want it? In any case, it might not fit you when arrive to collect it.
For dresses made in your home town, you have to have them flown and then steamed when they arrive. Be sure to send the dresses down a week or two before the wedding so that there are no delays.
You can also plan Hawaii weddings easily using a hotel there. Most hotels in Hawaii have wedding planners and a wedding team specifically to help those coming in to get married from another place. They will sort out everything for you so you will simply arrive to a fabulous wedding set up.
One of the most important people attending your wedding, apart from the officiant marrying you, is the photographer. Make sure your photographer is arranged well in advance or you will be relying on friends and relatives for your wedding photographs. Also, a local photographer will know the best places for your photo sessions.
