Travel Note
Getting around Maui
We strongly, strongly recommend renting a car while you are in Maui. Though some websites may suggest public transportation, buses in Maui are very unreliable. Also, rideshare services, such as Uber and Lyft, are not well established on the island (read: extremely $$$). We have planned all wedding activities with your safety in mind and all events involving the consumption of alcoholic beverages will either be walking distance from the hotel or we will provide transportation.
Flight
Kahului International Aiport (OGG)
Please fly into Kahului International Airport (OGG). There are no boats or ferries between islands. Swimming between islands not advised.

FAQs
Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
Please RSVP for the Welcome Event and book within the room block by May 1, 2025 as the hotel cannot guarantee our discounted group rate after this day.
Question
Do I really need a rental car?
Answer
Yes. Absolutely, yes. The airport taxis and ride shares (Uber, Lyft) are available but extremely expensive. Please do not rely on the Maui Bus if you'd like to arrive anywhere on time. Maui is beautiful but, unfortunately, it is not known for its walkability or robust public transportation.
Question
What do I need to bring?
Answer
Flip flops (aka slippers in Hawaii) Sunscreen (must be reef-safe!) Mosquito repellent Swimsuit Hat High quality sunglasses Hiking shoes Aloha spirit Warm sweater/jacket if you're planning to visit Haleakala
Question
What is the dress code for the ceremony?
Answer
Island chic. We want everyone to relax and enjoy themselves! We do not expect anyone to wear a tuxedo. For men: slacks and closed toe shoes; aloha shirts encouraged. For women: Semi-formal or dressy casual. The venue will be outdoors on a grassy lawn.
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
Due to the size of the venue, plus ones are by invitation only. Please reach out to us directly if you have questions.
Question
I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?
Answer
Please let us know ASAP of any dietary restrictions. We will work with the hotel to accommodate as best we can.
Question
Can I take photos during the ceremony please?
Answer
We ask that people please refrain from taking photos during the ceremony. We have two professional photographers that will be capturing our special day. We will be happy to share photos with everyone afterwards!
