Hawaiian Honeymoon Blessing?

Hi There,

My fiance and I are getting married on the mainland and I am currently toying with the idea of having a traditional, hawaiian honeymoon blessing while on Kauai in June.

I want it to be simple, and affordable, but still romantic - on the beach right before sunset. Would love a sea water/sea salt ';cleansing'; ceremony and maybe someone to blow a conch shell? Would like hawaiian chanting/singing if at all possible.

Everyone seems to charge a lot of money for something that is so simple... any suggestions? We don%26#39;t need an official minister with a license to wed because we already will be married.

Have you heard of anyone having a honeymoon blessing before?

Thanks,

Hawaiian Honeymoon Blessing?

Indeed I have heard of such a thing!

Depending upon where you will be staying they might be able to put you in touch with someone - yes it will be expensive. Time and gasoline are precious on the islands and this is a precious time for you.

My husband and I renewed our vows on Maui a few years ago, had everything set for photographer and ofiiciate - then at the last minute he had to cancel and we were stuck without anyone to preside over our renewal! What did we do? We just had the owner of our B%26amp;B read our original vow blessing and the entire collection of guests at the B%26amp;B showed up - it was fabulous! We had been married for nineteen years at the time and did not need legalities.

Check with local poetry or historical societies - churches. Hotels and yes indeed - the TA folds will not let you down!
