Your Guide to a Magical Kauai Wedding

General

I want to Elope! Where do I start?

First off, we're so excited you have chosen Kauai for your wedding! It is such a special place! We typically start the planning process by receiving an on-line inquiry. Once we receive an inquiry, we will send over a proposal for you to review. If you are happy with the proposal you are able to easily accept it online and move forward with your ceremony date! You can also use our online booking system to set up a call with Jessica (who typically handles inquiries) or Hailey if you have any questions at all!

Why do I need a wedding planner on Kauai?

We take care of all the details so you can sit back and relax. You get to enjoy the experience and rest assured we will take care of you and provide you with the most amazing wedding experience possible.

Why should I choose Kauai Elopements for my wedding day?

“I LOVE weddings and everything about wedding planning. I couldn't imagine doing anything else and I consider myself so lucky to have the opportunity to be a part of your wedding day. I have been a part of the Kauai wedding industry as long as I can remember, having started as a flower girl for elopements back in the early 90’s. I have a deep passion for the Kauai wedding industry and love supporting our talented local vendors”- Jess

Is the marriage license process difficult?

Nope! We will make your marriage license appointment 30 days prior to your wedding date and send you all the details you will need at that time. You will only need your driver's license or a passport for this appointment.

Will there be an on-site coordinator for my ceremony?

Yes!! We have an amazing staff of coordinators to help you with your wedding day. All of our ceremonies have an on-site coordinator to make sure everything goes smoothly and you have nothing at all to worry about!

What happens if it rains?

Ohhhhh this question!! We get asked about rain every single day, multiple times... Almost as much as it rains on Kauai. Lol. But on a serious note, it is something we work with every single day. We are experts in handling the weather here and knowing how to predict where the weather is going. We always have umbrellas on hand for your and your guests in case of a sprinkle. In the case of more extreme weather, we are able to move your ceremony time/ date to accommodate more favorable conditions.

What's your favorite time of year on Kauai?

“My favorite time of year is fall going into early winter, September through December. The temperatures are cooler, the summer crowds have dissipated, the cost of traveling to Kauai is less, and it's just over all more mellow on island”- Jess

What is the most popular time of day for a ceremony?

This would actually depend on the location you choose. For beach weddings we recommend either morning or sunset. For waterfall or garden locations, mid-morning to afternoon times are preferable.

Is there a place to get ready near the ceremony location?

Nope, couples normally get ready at their accommodations and arrive in their full wedding attire at the ceremony location.

What is the best beach for Sunset?

This totally depends on the time of year you are going to be on the island and we can definitely point you in the right direction based on where you are staying and your ceremony date.
