1. Do we need to obtain the marriage license?
Although the same sex marriage was challenged at the state superior court in Hawaii, it is not yet legal. Therefore, your wedding ceremony will be personal and no official license will be issued from the state. We will provide a commemorative certificate which is more beautiful and framable:-) Relish your love and spiritual reunion in your very personal commitment ceremony in Hawaii.

2. What kind of ceremony do you conduct?
Our ceremony is more spiritual for the couple's love and blessings in nature in English and Hawaiian languages. Therefore, our vows are not specifically denominational or religious.
Please review our vows at http://www.weddingbythesea-hawaii.com/spiritualvows.htm

3. What is the best time to perform the ceremony?
1 hour before sunset. A camera captures gentle and romantic colors. Day time is too hot for you and too bright for a camera. Hawaii is a tropical island!

4. If we cancel the reservation, will we get the money back?
If you cancel the reservation 30 days prior to the scheduled wedding date, we will refund your money( less $150 - as an arrangement fee). Exclusive packages may require a higher cancellation fee.
