We had our wedding at Loulu Palm on June 14, 2024. We booked our venue before we got to see it in person, and it was even more beautiful than we thought it would be! The greenery, the ocean, and the privacy was just perfect for our special day. The backdrop of all of our photos and videos was just perfect. The size of the venue is perfect because it is big enough to have the grand, beautiful vibe, while still feeling so intimate. Nickie and Ashley were both so helpful and welcoming. We really felt so special on our wedding day. You absolutely have to book Ashley as your coordinator! She is AMAZING! My wedding day was PERFECT and I was able to have so much fun and enjoy it thanks to Ashley. I did not have to worry for one second because she had everything handled. She is truly a master of her craft. She loves what she does and it is so evident with the amount of work and care she pours into couples. I don’t know how anyone gets married without her! As soon as she stepped in for coordination, I had my full trust in her. She is organized, prompt, and just fun to talk to. I will keep in touch with Nickie and Ashley because we can’t wait to visit Loulu Palm again for an anniversary trip!

We chose Hilton Hawaiian Village because it was a very beautiful premises and the middle ground in the spectrum of our venue choices. Simply due to factors of budget and a size of around 80 guests, building up a garden to spec from scratch or a simple restaurant wouldn't have worked for us. Working with HHV and specifically Alma Hamamoto made it super easy. We had a destination wedding coming from California and she made it super easy to plan because she knew all the right thorough questions to ask as we were sharing our vision. Even when we didn't have much of an idea, Alma was very clear about what HHV could offer. We visited once in the middle of planning and a second time the week of the wedding to clarify all the details and we knew we were in very good hands. All the staff and vendors that HHV partner with like Cover2Cover are wonderful and go the extra mile. Even when there were strikes on premises and we couldn't use the original beachfront patio we wanted for the reception, all the staff were alert and ready with a full backup plan which speaks to their profound professionalism. They were also generous to help with costs and include extra decor. You have to expect dynamic situations when planning your wedding and I'm grateful the entire team is also flexible. So we were able to have a perfect Hawaiian wedding by following a timeline and weekly checklist, having a few family and church friends help out coordinating, and working with Alma and the wonderful team there at HHV.

Hosting our wedding here exceeded our expectations in every possible way. I truly and honestly cannot recommend this venue enough. Big Island Last Resort is exactly the elevated, mystical, lush backyard wedding venue you've been looking for. It is an expansive yet intimate space that provides the perfect backdrop for a luxurious, natural vibe. You should have your wedding here!!! The owner property managers were also incredibly accommodating, communicative, and so easy to work with. Everything went so smoothly at every part of the planning process. And then they really made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed both during our stay and on our wedding day. The property managers, Jesse Madeline, are so incredibly kind and gracious and extended the warmest hospitality to us and our families. Truly a pleasure to interact with!! The houses themselves were recently renovated and you can tell from when you first walk in that no expense was spared. There are legitimate high-end finishes throughout the entire house -- floors, countertops, couches, tables, chairs, appliances, artwork -- everything is high-quality and expensive. But at the same time, the houses invoke a sense of home and tranquility, with a lot of natural materials and local aspects incorporated. It was just so pleasant to be in that space. The backyards of the 2 houses were also the perfect space for a wedding. It really feels like they were designed to have weddings there (maybe they were? lol). We had around 50 people and there was an abundance of space. We had the ceremony underneath this really amazing banyan tree in the larger yard (aptly called Banyan Yard). We then had cocktail hour in the smaller yard (Mango Yard), before moving back to the Banyan Yard for dinner, drinks, and dancing. There was more than enough space in the yard for food tables, a bar, dj, a dance floor, a couple of lounge areas with chairs/couches, and also seating for 50 people to eat. (And you could definitely comfortably fit more people). Having the two separate yards also created a really nice flow to the whole evening - it was nice to have the separation of spaces for different parts of the wedding. You won't find a space that comes close to offering what this space does. It really is the perfect backdrop to create a magical and unique environment. You're surrounded by lush vegetation and so much beautiful nature. I'm not sure we found any other venue on the Big Island that would have created an experience like we had at Big Island Last Resort. I have infinite good things to say about this venue, so I'll stop here lol. Seriously just book this place, you 100% will not regret it.

Amazing!!!!We recently hosted our wedding at Empire Steak House Hawaii, and words can hardly express how magical the experience was. With 100 of our closest friends and family gathered in their breathtaking Dining the Sky Room, it felt like a dream brought to life. From the moment we walked in, the staff treated us like royalty. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care made us feel confident and at ease throughout the entire planning process and on our big day. The Dining in the Sky Room itself was stunning – modern, elegant, and filled with warm ambiance and panoramic views that wowed every guest. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every course was a masterpiece, from the perfectly cooked steaks to the decadent desserts. Our guests are still raving about the meal!

We had our wedding for 50 guests at the Hawaii Polo Club and had the most amazing time. It was just what we wanted - a more low key, casual wedding with a beautiful view. Unfortunately, on our wedding day it rained a lot so we weren't able to see the mountains in the background and the beach was quite gloomy but it was still a great time. We were told the rainy season would be over but it was unusual for May Sugako was very responsive and easy to work with. She also gave us a list of recommended vendor which made organizing the wedding so much easier.

About wedding venues in Hawaii

Why Is Hawaii the Perfect Place for Your Wedding?

Hawaii offers wedding venues that seamlessly blend dramatic landscapes with authentic Hawaiian traditions. You'll find oceanfront ceremony spots with breathtaking sunset backdrops that create unforgettable photo opportunities. The islands feature lush garden settings nestled against mountain views and historic venues rich with cultural significance. Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or gathering everyone you know, Hawaii's diverse venues can accommodate celebrations of any size.

What Makes Each Hawaiian Island Unique for Weddings?

How Does Oahu Balance Accessibility and Beauty?

Oahu combines easy accessibility with spectacular natural beauty, making it perfect for guests traveling from afar. Venues like Turtle Bay Resort in Kahuku give you stunning beachfront settings with a deeply romantic atmosphere your guests will talk about for years. The Royal Hawaiian in Waikiki offers accessible venues including the Ocean Lawn and Coconut Grove. This flexibility helps you design exactly the wedding you're envisioning without logistical headaches.

Which Hawaiian Island Offers the Most Scenic Backdrop?

Kauai gives you near-private beach ceremonies with intimate settings along its secluded shorelines. Perfect for couples seeking privacy. Maui features The Ritz-Carlton in Kapalua with exceptional culinary experiences and comprehensive wedding coordination that takes stress off your shoulders. The island's upcountry settings provide cooler temperatures and sweeping vistas that create dramatic backdrops for your special day.

How Much Does a Wedding in Hawaii Cost?

A Hawaii wedding venue costs about $10,665, fitting right within the national average range of $6,500-$12,000. You'll typically spend between $9,600-$11,700 on your venue, which represents about 19% of your total wedding budget. Your overall costs will scale with guest count: 50 guests runs around $24,065 while 300 guests approaches $96,881. Most couples secure their Hawaii venue about 14 months before the big day. June sees the highest number of venue inquiries, so plan accordingly if you're considering a summer wedding.

Where Can You Find Accessible Wedding Venues in Hawaii?

The Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa offers fully accessible venues with ramps, elevators and carefully designed pathways throughout the property. Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa provides highly accessible spaces with beautiful beachfront options that don't compromise on the Hawaiian experience. The Royal Hawaiian features accessible accommodations with well-integrated ramps and elevators throughout the property, ensuring all your guests can fully participate in your celebration.

How Can Remote Guests Participate in Your Hawaii Wedding?

The Hyatt Regency Waikiki offers advanced technological solutions including virtual greeting systems that create meaningful connections. Consider innovative approaches like providing VR headsets to remote guests or assigning a dedicated host to engage with virtual attendees through live chat. These touches help everyone feel included in your celebration regardless of distance.

What's Your Next Step in Planning Your Hawaii Wedding?

With venues typically booked 14 months ahead, you should start scheduling venue tours during Hawaii's shoulder seasons. April-May or September-October give you the advantage of wedding professionals having more availability to answer your questions. Working with a more modest budget? Consider restaurant private rooms like Cafe Julia in Honolulu which includes furniture, basic decor and staff in their package price. This approach gives you the Hawaiian experience while keeping costs manageable.
