Question
What should I wear?
Answer
We’re so excited to see you looking your best! For our wedding, the dress code is a mix of cocktail attire and semi-formal. Here’s what that means: For Men: A button-down shirt with slacks is perfect. We love a good accessory like a kukui nut lei. For Women: Think stylish and refined—a dress or a classy jumpsuit would both be beautiful choices. Whatever you decide to wear, we know you’ll look amazing! A few things to keep in mind: Please avoid wearing white, cream, or ivory—those shades are reserved for the bride. We kindly ask guests to avoid shorts and jeans.
Question
Will the wedding be indoor or outdoor?
Answer
Our ceremony will be held outdoors on a grassy lawn. The reception will follow in a nearby covered pavilion.
Question
Can I bring a plus one or my children?

Question
What time should I arrive?
Answer
We kindly ask guests to arrive between 3:30 PM and 4:10 PM to allow time to be shuttled from the entrance of Waimea to the Upper Meadow, where our ceremony will take place. We plan to begin promptly at 4:30 PM, and we’re so grateful for your timeliness!
Question
Can we walk to the ceremony location?
Answer
Although both the ceremony and reception will be held within Waimea Valley, guests are not permitted to walk to the Upper Meadow ceremony site. All guests will be shuttled from the main entrance to the ceremony—and then back down to the reception afterward. Please note that Waimea Valley remains open to the public until 5:00 PM, so shuttles are the only permitted way to access the ceremony location before then. Thanks for your understanding!

Question
Will alcohol be served?
Answer
Yes! We’ll be serving a selection of beer, wine, and signature cocktails during the reception. Please plan accordingly to ensure everyone gets home safely—we want the celebration to be fun and responsible!
