2. QUESTION:
   What is the most affordable and best package deal for a Hawaiian wedding?
   I am looking for a great destitaion wedding package deal. Please give price, company name and any other info you can think of. I want to spend no more than 5000.
   I asked for some ideas not for rude answers.

   • ANSWER:
     Check out the different air companies to get a price. If you plan a head it might be a little cheaper. Also you can get a discount on the number of tickets you buy at one time. When you find the answer let me know.

3. QUESTION:
   I’m looking for an all-inclusive Hawaiian wedding package?
   I’m talking about travel, stay, and ceremony plus. It’ll just be my fiance and I, but finding an all-inclusive package is becoming such a hassle.

   • ANSWER:
     I looked into the same thing not long ago when I was getting overwhelmed with my own wedding planning and you will be hard pressed to find any all-inclusive resorts in Hawaii (that is, if you want all your food and beverages included in the price?). I did find one on the big island, but it is quite pricey.

     Fortunately, most hotels in Hawaii (especially in Maui and Oahu) have great wedding/honeymoon services if you don’t want your food included. I was using http://www.bridaldreamhawaii.com/ as we found a great package rate with our airline (WestJet – in Canada) and using their services to top up what we wanted.

     I hate it when people say this to me, but in certain situations I think it is appropriate to consult with a travel agent – especially when it’s something as important as your wedding! They would be best able to make your dreams come true.

     Congratulations on your wedding!

4. QUESTION:
   simple Hawaiian wedding on a budget panned for October.?
   I want a really simple “on the beach” wedding in Maui. I have a budget of about ,000. I would like to be able to stay there for about a week. Any suggestions on how to get started planning? Good hotels that aren’t too pricey? Maybe a package deal or something? Only close family will be there and they are willing to pay for their own tickets etc. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

   My fiance and I are planning a Hawaiian wedding for June 7th, 2008. We were thinking of having the ceremony on the North shores of Maui. Can anyone offer any info? Affordable but nice hotels? With wedding packages? Locations?

   ANY and all info is appreciated!! Thanks!!!

   • ANSWER:
     I googled ‘north shore of maui wedding packages’ and several sites came up. They have a great selection…so maybe you will find something that way.

     Your wedding plans sound exciting…good luck.

6. QUESTION:
   Where is a good beach and reception site on the west coast (leeward side) of Oahu for a vow renewal ceremony?
   We will be staying in the Ko Olina area and I do not want to spend and arm and a leg. My husband are celebrating our 10th anniversary and would like to have a very islandy/hawaiian vow renewal ceremony in the beginning of Oct. We will have about 10-12 family members with us and we want a nice beach ceremony and then a small reception/party. The marriott is quite expensive for their wedding packages. There are many different companies online that offer packages but I don’t know if they are any good. If you have any ideas or references, I would love to hear from you. Thanks…

   • ANSWER:
     The Leeward side can be dicey (lots of homeless people and others on beaches). I would go through Ko Olina for referrals if you want to stay there. There are north shore options that are safer, perhaps at one of the restaurants there. More informal, anyway. Also google for things in Makaha–there used to be a resort but I don’t if it’s still there. Also look on craigslist, there might be ideas.

7. QUESTION:
   Im having a hard time making a decision about our renewal of vows.?
   Well we know were going to go to Vegas.. We know we want an Elvis impersonator the renewal. What were having a hard time deciding is the type of ceremony that we want. Weve found some really great packages.

   Traditional: Long dress, tux, photos, first dance, toast, cake
   Blue Hawaii: Wear really loud hawaiian shirts, barefoot, and a hula girl.
   Pink Caddy: Ive never ridden in a pink caddy before.

   Well it’s gotta be with Elvis. We want something, fun, unique, romantic. Just the two of us. No family will be invited. And please I don’t want to hear that is so “tacky” comments or you had your day comments. Our wedding day was a disaster, and I cried for most of it.

   Anyone out there have any positive experiences in Vegas they would like to share? Ive been to few weddings there, and they were all elegant, tasteful, and well put together.

   • ANSWER:
     I live in Vegas and I’ve seen quite a few weddings. I’m choosing to marry here. I think your idea would be cool, maybe do a “Wild At Heart” kind of thing, driving to and from the ceremony in a convertible limosine. Do Traditional for the ceremony, then after the sun goes down, change into Hawaiian shirts and sarongs and leis and hit that Hawaiian area near Margaritaville. But wear thongs sandals, okay? There are still precious few places on the strip where it’s clean enough to walk barefoot.

     Congrats, if I see you I’ll wave and cheer!

8. QUESTION:
   ♥♥Tanninggg!♥♥ ?
   okay, so today i got paid and treated myself to a tanning package♥ for unlimited tanning for a month…i have this hawaiian tropic dark tanning lotion ♥4spf♥ and i use it when i tan….but i wanna be really really really really really dark♥ because i have a dance and a wedding…to go to…and i wanna be summer ready…
   how dark will this routine get me?
   oh and i plan on going tanning EVERY day for 30 days

   • ANSWER:
     I work at a tanning place!
     ♥ It all depends on the color of your skin and how easily you color and if you sunburn or not!
     ♥ Remember that for every 5 mins in a tanning bed is ONE hour in the sun! So 20 mins of tanning in a bed is 4 hrs in the sun!
     ♥ Start off by tanning for 10 mins then gradually add two mins each time you go.
     ♥ Only go 5 times a week
     ♥ The lotion you are using is very good so you will not have a problem getting dark at all.
     Good Luck!!!!

     Also you can try getting airbrushed! It gives you a great color and flawless look! It lasts about two weeks!

   I’m talking about travel, stay, and ceremony plus. It’ll just be my fiance and I, but finding an all-inclusive package is becoming such a hassle.

   • ANSWER:
     if you’re having a hard time then I’d recommend finding a travel agent. let her know what your plans are and I’m sure that they’ll be able to find you something. I know someone that got married in Hawaii all inclusive which included a ceremony. Also try these sites…..I haven’t looked at the actual sites but they may be helpful. You can also call/contact some hotel venues that you’re interested to see if they can meet your needs.
