Semi-Formal attire. We are asking our guests to dress up for the occasion! Our wedding won't be too long but it will most likely be very warm and humid, dress accordingly and drink plenty of water before!
What color are the bridesmaids wearing?
Pale yellow.
Will my phone work at Waimea Valley during the wedding?
You might get 1 bar if you are lucky. Do not expect to have cell service while you are at the wedding & reception.
Can I bring my kids?
Unfortunately we don't have the ability to accommodate all of the children we would love to have at the wedding. So we are only having our nieces and nephew in the wedding. Thank you so much for understanding.
What is special about Waimea Valley?
Waimea “The Valley of the Priests” was named in 1090 when the ruler of Oʻahu awarded the land to the kāhuna nui. Descendants of the high priests lived and cared for much of the Valley until 1886. It remains one of last partially intact ahupuaʻa (the native Hawaiian system of land management) on Oʻahu. Waimea Valley consists of 1,875 acres and has been a sacred place for more than 700 years.
The gardens are simply incredible and almost pre-historic in their size and scope. It’s an easy half-hour walk into the waterfall where you can swim and then circle back through to the Botanical Gardens. This is a sacred, special part of the island and a very different experience from the glamour of Waikīkī.
