FAQs

Question

Do you recommend renting a car?

Answer

Yes! Cars are reasonably priced to rent from the airport and definitely worth it to get around the island. Ubers do exist as well.

Question

Tips for saving on eating while there?

Answer

The grocery stores have lots of premade food that is cheaper than always going to a restaurant. We like to go for lunch! I always get Poke from the grocery store as well. We use google maps to give us reviews of some cheaper places to grab meals some nights as well such as L&L Hawaiian barbeque. There is also a COSTCO in Maui! We like to get our gas there, grab a slice of pizza and even get some touristy stuff!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Island attire! Think dressy island vibes. The ceremony and reception are both on the golf course. Ladies keep in mind that the Ceremony is on the lawn so I would not recommend pointy heels!

Question

What is the best airport to arrive at?

Answer

OGG - Kahului Airport

Question

Can you island hop?

Answer

Yes! On Hawiian airlines, we find tickets are anywhere from $50-$100 depending on how soon you book them. We have booked day of even. All flights are quick, 30 to 40 minutes!

Question

Will the ceremony and reception be indoors and at the same location?

Answer

Both will be outdoors. Both are at the same golf course and restaurant called "Gather at Maui".

Question

Will dinner be provided?

Answer

Yes, a Hawaiian style BBQ.

Question

Any discounted flights?

Answer

Not that we know of. But, you can sign up for the American Airlines credit card you get 50,000 points if you spend $2,500 within the first 3 months. Or you can get the Aviator card and make an annual fee $99 (waived the first year). Enough for a roundtrip ticket to Hawaii. Or look into the Southwest Airlines credit card with up to 100,000 points as well. Shelby also likes to use Skyscanner for flight searching and hopper. Hopper will tell you predictions on flight prices and offer advice like when to buy.
