| The Garden Island
The "Garden Island" is considered by many
to be the most beautiful of the Hawaiian Islands, because
of its lush, tropical rainforest, desolate moonscapes
and more than 40 spectacular beaches. Life on Kauai
is unhurried from the Na Pali Coast to Waimea Canyon
with plenty of unforgettable beaches and stunning waterfalls
in-between. Most people have already seen Kauai on the
silver screen as the lush, Eden-like backdrop for hundreds
of films including Blue Hawaii, South Pacific, Jurassic
Park, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Outbreak and Gilligan's
Island. Yet the camera's lens could never do the island
justice. Some of the best golf courses in the Hawaiian
Islands are found on Kauai, including the Poipu Bay
Resort Golf Course, known from the PGA Grand Slam of
Golf, and the Prince Courses at the Princeville Resort.

Destination Details
Escorts attired in native Hawaiian dress paddle the canoe
while one sings soft Hawaiian songs. Or you can take a riverboat to
a place called the Fern Grotto and repeat your vows there. You can choose
a spot on a towering sea cliff, go to one of several spectacular gardens,
take a helicopter to a remote waterfall, get married in a church, on
a private yacht or in one of the island's elegant resorts. More than
3,000 couples exchange wedding vows each year on Kauai. The draw is
the island's intense natural beauty and a professional array of services
that make it easy to get married and honeymoon here.

Hawaii is a beautiful place and a marriage here is an
ideal way for a couple to start life together. You may be a visitor
to the Islands, drawn to our year-round warm and sunny weather, or you
may be a resident wishing to celebrate a most cherished moment in a
place that you call home. Whoever you are, we welcome you and hope that
we can make your wedding day as free from worry as possible. Aloha and
best wishes! For any person to lawfully marry in the State of Hawaii,
a license for that purpose must be obtained from an authorized agent
(HRS §572-1.7). Once the license has been issued, there is no waiting
period before the marriage can take place. A marriage license and marriage
certificate are different documents. The marriage license permits a
marriage to take place. The marriage certificate indicates that a legal
marriage has been performed. The marriage certificate is prepared and
filed by your licensed marriage officiant or performer with the Department
of Health . A newly married couple receives one (1) certified copy of
the marriage certificate at no extra charge, upon payment of the marriage
license fee, which will be sent to the couple by mail (60-120 days)
after the marriage has been performed. If a marriage certificate is
needed sooner than this, you can apply for one or more additional certified
copies. Information on marriage licenses may be obtained via the telephone
system, any day or any time, by calling (808) 586-4545. Marriage Guidelines
