Hawaii is the world's most romantic place for a wedding. The beautiful weather, the breezy warm days and starry nights, beaches, ocean and mountains make a special day even more enchanted, and no where else in the world do guests feel more relaxed.

It's very simple to get a marriage license in Hawaii. Marriage licenses are $60, and you need to show photo identification. There are no blood tests, waiting period or residency requirements. You must be over 16 or older, and if under 18, you need parental consent. The license is then valid for any marriage ceremony held within 30 days of issuance.

The State Department of Health in Honolulu at the corner of Beretania and Punchbowl Street (1250 Punchbowl Street) issues marriage licenses from the Marriage License Bureau which is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. (Closed weekends and all local and Federal Holidays.) Or, you can get one from a licensed agent.

There are thousands of hotel rooms and a wide variety of restaurants and caterers to suit you and your guests special tastes. There are hundreds of wedding planners and services to help you plan every detail of your special day, and you can start right here.

If you live on the Mainland, it's probably a good idea to have someone local help you arrange the details for you. On each of the pages listed below, you'll find lists and Websites of wedding planners. Visit their sites, get in touch with a few and don't forget to ask for some references.

Many wedding planners have had years of experience so ask them for their advice. You'll find them very helpful, but remember the most important thing on your wedding day is the wedding couple's happiness, so take time to plan carefully to make this day the most romantic and memorable of your long life together.
