In the native Hawaiian language, there is no word for romance. That's
because romance is everywhere. Hawaii is the number one dream destination for lovers the whole world over. You could be strolling together by the light of mystic lanterns and torches, the glow of an orange moon on your glistening white beach. or perhaps you might be riding horseback through sparkling surf, with the palms swaying in the balmy breeze. or maybe it's the hula dancers that are swaying under a banyan tree to the serenade of steel guitars and ukuleles. Or maybe it's a once-in-a-lifetime kiss, intoxicated by the scents of plumeria and night-blooming jasmine. |

WEDDINGS ON KAUAI Kauai is a popular spot for weddings -- 3000 every year -- and honeymoons -- who is counting. Most resorts gladly accommodate wedding parties, several have wedding chapels set in ideal locations. Wedding planners on the island can also plan your big day in advance by providing everything from a minister to a maile lei. Many couples combine both wedding and honeymoon on Kauai. This is very easy as there are no residency or citizenship requirements. All you need to do is bring a health certificate from home including blood tests for both of you, and a rubella test for the bride. A number of ministers perform weddings, many at incredible locations, sometimes so remote that they can only be reached by helicopter. There are dozens of outfits that will help you plan. One of our guests used Michael Merle Jones of Island Weddings and highly recommended him. Some other planners to contact include:
