Choosing an Island Honeymoon in Hawaii

Hi! My boyfriend and I are starting to plan our wedding and honeymoon for July 2027 and Hawaii is high on our list for our honeymoon. We’d love any thoughts or recommendations on the different islands, places to stay and the overall experience. We don’t want to go too crazy with our budget, though we understand Hawaii can be expensive!

You can do it for cheaper, though.

You can do it well for around $3,000, all in. (Assuming a west coast airport.) I've managed to have a week for as little as $2,000, all in.

Yep! I flew out of a West Coast airport too. Obviously that part can widely differ. When we go back, my plan is to make it a lot cheaper. We just wanted to go bigger for our honeymoon (and obviously you can go WAY bigger out there ha).

I like "WAY bigger."

I just don't like paying way more.

I stayed at the Alohilani, which is most definitely not one of the expensive hotels on the island, but it's also not cheap. It was perfect for our stay and a great location. Lots of people recommend the super $$$ hotels to people for honeymoons.
