Julia & Jordon

    Welcome
    Things To Do

Things To Do

We feel so fortunate to be getting married at Lanikūhonua Cultural Institute, where heaven meets earth, on Oahu. We chose Lanikūhonua as the location to exchange marriage vows because it embodies the natural beauty of The Islands all while celebrating Hawaiian culture. While Jordon is a local boy from Kaneohe, Julia still feels like a wide-eyed tourist every time she visits Hawaii. Hawaii is simply beautiful whether you are a local or a visitor. For our guests flying in from the mainland, these are just a very few of many things to do (and places to eat...can you tell we like to eat?) on Oahu. We hope you stay awhile before or after our wedding to explore! If you have some time, we also recommend flying inter-island to experience the unique qualities of each island!
