FAQs

Question

What is the transportation situation?

Answer

We recommend securing a rental car at a minimum for Maui in order to take full advantage of what the island has to offer. Guests should plan for their own transportation to and from the event, as transportation will not be provided. On Oahu, alternative transportation options include DaBus system (reliable and affordable to mostly anywhere on the island), rideshares like Uber/Lyft, or taxis.

Question

Will there be alcohol at the event?

Answer

Alcohol will not be served at the ceremony, though it will be available for guests to purchase for themselves at the dinner which follows.

Question

What kind of weather should I expect?

Answer

The venue is in upcountry Maui, which tends to be a bit breezier than at ocean level. As it will be the end of August, the general climate will likely be warm and humid. When in Hawaii, there's always the chance for surprise rain showers.
