Hawaiian Words

"Mana"

Mana (mă'-na)

Sacred Power,  Inner and Spiritual Strength

In Hawaiian culture, mana is understood as a spiritual energy or life force that permeates all things. It's not just a physical energy but also a supernatural or divine power that can reside in people, places, and objects. Mana is believed to be both internal and external, and it can be gained or lost through actions and interactions. The respect of mana, the enhancement of mana, and the protection of great mana from pollution gave rise to many rules and protocols in Hawaiian society. ​

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. Is a permit required for my wedding?

Absolutely. You will need a permit for all public beaches. We will help you secure the permit based on your selected locations. The list of current beaches can be found on the State of Hawaii Wiki Permits website.

 

2. What if it rains on my day?

We love the Island’s weather, which can change rapidly. We typically stick to the scheduled date and time. In the rare event of extended weather issues, we can reschedule your wedding to a different date or location if available.

 

3. When is the best time for my wedding?

We recommend sunset for the best lighting and sunset experience. Remember, timing varies by location, as the sun rises in East Hawaii and sets in West Hawaii.

 

4. Are there sunrise fees?

There is a sunrise fee of $200 for locations at Waikoloa and Mauna Lani Beach Resorts. For events within 90 minutes of sunrise. Request a quote for all other locations.

5. Do I have to use the vows provided or can we share our own personal vows?

Use scripted vows or prepare your own personal vows. I actually prefer when couple prepare their own. I step to the side to allow privacy as well photographers have additional photo opportunities.
