The weather in March is usually pretty mild, less hot than the summer months with fewer rain showers than in the winter. The nighttime low temperature average will be around 67 degrees while the daytime high temperature average will be around 81 degrees. We do want to stress that our wedding will be held outdoors with no coverings so bring an extra cardigan with you if you tend to run cold.
We want our guest to be comfortable, so please leave your fancy formal wear at home. We recommend a nice summer dress with flats or wedges, or a nice dress shirt or an Aloha shirt with khakis. Wear something that you can dance in!
Yes, there will be 200 parking stalls available to our guests and there will be a parking attendant present. If arriving after 6:30, please use code found on the schedule page of our website. As there will be an open bar, we recommend that our guest take an Uber so that we can party and get everyone home safely!
Lanikūhonua means "where heaven meets the earth". We feel so grateful to be exchanging vows and celebrating with our family and friends at a place that is not only beautiful, but also has a mission of sustaining Hawaiian culture.

It is the Oketani mon, or Oketani family crest, which depicts three ginkgo leaves arranged side by side in a circle. In addition to representing Jordon's family name, ginkgo leaves represent longevity in both Chinese and Japanese culture while circles represent unity or togetherness in Chinese culture. We couldn't think of a more fitting symbol than this to include on our wedding stationary!
