As many have heard, Oahu has finally been approved to have OUTDOOR weddings of up to 100 people (including vendors). Although this is definitely wonderful news, we feel it is crucial that everyone not only understand what the guidelines and requirements are to do these events but some best practices to help keep everyone safe.

Before we jump right in, I wanted to first explain the distinction between “requirements” and “best practices”. The requirements (as listed in the link above) are what is being required in order for any events to be permitted to happen. “Best practices” are recommendations that we encourage people to practice whenever possible to do our best to keep our clients, their guests, and our colleagues as safe as possible. This being said, it will be crucial that you speak to each of your vendors to determine what procedures and “best practices” they will be implementing during your wedding. Although this video includes both requirements and best practices, we wanted to share it with all of you so you can begin to get familiar some things that may help YOU!
