About Rain
The only way to "plan" for rain is to use a paid site like a hotel, which provides for an alternate location in case of rain. We don't suggest people plan for rain unless they are having a big wedding. In fact, we don't think about it much until that day and at the location. In most instances, rain just blows through.
For outdoor free beach weddings, there's always the possibility of "not so nice weather". Weather is the only thing we can’t control and cannot guaranty. With that said, we've only had one or two total washouts, the rest we've been able to do with a little patience and we were still able to have the wedding and get some unique photography.
Our contract policy is that there are no refunds but, before we get to that point, here’s what we can do... at our sole discretion:
-
We'll try to divert you to the nearest location that has the best weather. Vendor travel fees will apply for locations outside of Honolulu/Waikiki. Or be prepared to use a hotel suite or hotel balcony.
-
At our sole descretione will try to reschedule if it’s really bad, constant rain. FYI:Our people don't want to get wet and our photographers use equipment and our musicians have intruments are are far to valuable to risk for any one wedding.
Heavy clouds, overcast, and/or intermittent showers is not a reason to reschedule or to cancel. Any reschedule will be at a time and place to fit our vendors schedules. Most of our vendors will do this at no extra charge (they don't want to get wet either) but, just the same, be prepared to pay an additional 50% of an individual vendors cost (limousines will require 100% because they operate rain or shine). If it rains on the resecheduled day as well, we suggest that you get a paid location or be prepared to use a hotel suite or hotel balcony.
-
There will be no replacements for any non-performance related products ordered for your wedding day i.e. cake, flowers, lei, toast, glasses, perishables, etc.. Monies from vendors providing non-ceremony related services and those services not affected by the weather i.e. limousine, transportation companies, or any reception related services you may have ordered will also not be returned.
