For Hawaii weddings happening on the island of Oahu, there are several must-see sights for the bride and groom. Why not make your Hawaiian wedding more than just a ceremony and go see what the island has to offer.
Arizona Memorial

A simple, white structure stands over the hulk of the U.S.S. Arizona, which sank with 1,102 men aboard the ship when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Tickets are distributed on a first-come first-serve basis, so make sure that you are standing in line early in the morning as it is common to wait anywhere from 1-3 hours just to get a ticket. There is no fee to go see the Arizona Memorial. Although, there are long waits, it is definitely worth it to see the video that goes with the tour as well as set foot on the memorial and see the sunken ship underneath the water.
Polynesian Cultural Center
If you really want to experience Hawaii weddings then you need to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center and learn all about the history and culture of the island. It has re-created villages that showcase the lifestyles and traditions of Hawaii, Tahiti, Samoa, Fiji, and New Zealand. It has also restaurants, luaus, and several shows that consist of fire dancing, tribal tattooing, and ancient ceremonies. Depending on what you are going to see at the center will depend on the price you will pay.
Battleship Missouri Memorial
After seeing action from World War II to the Persian Gulf War, is now moored near the Arizona and serves a museum and interactive educational center. You can see the exact spot in the ship where the agreement for the Japanese surrender to end World War II was signed. They have guided tours and also tickets for non-guided tours which are less money.
Why not take advantage of Hawaii weddings in Oahu and experience everything that the beautiful island has to offer.
