The Popularity Of Hawaii Beach Weddings

By Sharlene Fleming


If you look at the stats you will see that more people are heading over towards Hawaii in order to get married. A couple of years ago this may have been thought of as a little odd, but this has now become extremely popular. Hawaii beach weddings keep wedding planners in this area really busy.

The traditional wedding seems to have been less popular in recent times. There are a couple of reasons for this, but if you look at the costs of a formal wedding, it is no surprise why more people are turning towards casual weddings in order to exchange their vows. It is not only the cost that people are avoiding, but beach weddings seem to bring in more of a party atmosphere. There is no need to go out and find a venue where you will later celebrate the event because there are many beaches to choose from.

Quite often, wedding photographers like to arrange a photo shoot of the bridal couple at a beach. This sets the romantic tone, but if you decide to have the whole event on the beach there is no need to be dragged all the way off somewhere, which usually just costs more than you bargained for.

Hawaii has been rated as one of the top destinations to come for a vacation. If you plan your wedding ahead of time, you can organize for guests to stay on the big island and this will be a great escape for them at the same time. A lot of couples choose this destination because it makes the ideal location for the perfect honeymoon. People travel from long distances in order to come to this tranquil place for a honeymoon that they will never forget.

There are also many beaches that one can choose from. You may want to head off to the North Shore where you will find waves rolling towards the sand at great speeds. Many surfers decide to have their weddings on well known surfer beaches in Hawaii. Of course, you could always opt for the more tranquil waters which would be perfect for families who have small kids. Hawaii offers something for everyone and that makes it that much more special.

The formal wedding is not complete without the expensive cake which usually takes a day to choose as well as flower arrangements in the church. The decorations you will find at a wedding like this are more simple and minimalistic, focusing on the essentials. Often people will decorate with natural things like shells and this is not going to cost you anything.

Wedding planners are equipped to come up with all sorts of protection against the elements. Those who are against beach weddings are the skeptics who will tell you that it will most probably rain or the wind may blow like crazy. Very solid coverings are made which cover the aisle as well as the spot where the vows are exchanged and this is completely sheltered.

If you are thinking about Hawaii beach weddings, then do not forget to do your research beforehand. Just because this is more of a casual and a relaxed wedding does not mean that you do not have to do the adequate planning. If you can not afford a wedding planner, then make sure you have some good, talented friends to help you out.
