Unique Venues For Your Hawaii Intimate Wedding

This list has some of the most unique and beautiful wedding venues for an intimate wedding in Hawaii!

When you choose to get married in Hawaii, you’re wanting to have your wedding somewhere beautiful and one-of-a-kind. And if you’d prefer to get married somewhere private or with a handful of guests, these are some of my top recommendations for unique wedding venues in Hawaii that will help make your day even more special.

While the state of Hawaii has eight main islands, the four most visited islands are Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island.

This is not even close to an exhaustive list of all of the unique wedding venues for your Hawaii intimate wedding, but below are a handful of my favorite venues!

Kualoa Ranch, Oahu

Kualoa Ranch 4,000-acre private nature reserve and working cattle ranch, and it is located on the windward coast of Oaha. Kualoa is an incredible place to visit!
