Mitzi & Kevin

On our romantic escape we will discover the highlights of our honeymoon destination with your generous wedding gift. Expedia offers an array of tours, activities and excursions. Thank you for allowing us to plan our dream honeymoon by contributing to any and all of our adventures as a newly married couple.

We'll board a sleek and roomy helicopter and soar beyond the beaches to Kauai's largely uninhabited tropical wilderness, uncovering the undulating, secluded beauty of the Garden Isle's more aloof side. Next, we will get our toes out of the sand and see what really makes Kauai special, soaking up views that literally stretch for miles on a 50-minute aerial ride over the oldest Hawaiian island.

We will enjoy an unforgettable evening featuring a unique Polynesian hukilau (a communal net-fishing technique), delicious island cuisine and spectacular entertainment. Accompanied by soft sea breezes, the Paradise Cove Luau waits to show us a glimpse of Hawaii past.

We'll fall in love with Kauai in record time on this guided showcase of "The Grand Canyon of the Pacific" that also highlights Nawiliwili Harbor, Hanapepe Lookout, Spouting Horn and many more of the island's most beautiful natural formations.

We'll watch as the evening dims and then relights with poi ball twirlers and fire knife dancers. A lavish buffet will await us in an evening that captures the gambit - from the quiet intimacy to the stunning display of sight and sounds. Nestled in a 35-acre (14-ha) manicured pasture, Gaylord's Restaurant Kilohana sits at the end of a winding driveway. When we enter we will see the paintings of Ethel and Gaylord Parke Wilcox that line the walls. The luau celebrates the triumphs and struggles of the Hawaiian people - culminating in word, music and the hypnotic light trails of a fire dance.

The cacao orchard is located on the North Shore of Kauai. We will learn about permaculture and see how a sustainable organic exotic fruit farm works. The chocolate farm tour is a three-hour guided educational adventure where we will learn all about the cacao tree and see how chocolate is made from the cacao fruit (cacao pods). We will see four different varieties of Theobroma Cacao and Theobroma Grandiflorum. At the end of the tour we will sit down to a chocolate tasting to sample a multitude of chocolates from Hawaii, all grown and made on Kauai and the Big Island. They make a fresh hot chocolate drink with coconut milk, local Kauai honey and fresh vanilla beans. Included in the extensive chocolate tasting are also samples of their renowned coconut butter truffles, winner of the People's Choice Award and Best Dessert of the 2009 Healing Garden Festival.

On our honeymoon we will experience romantic ambiance and tropical island bliss! Together we will indulge in a private candlelight dinner while gazing at the stars on the soft sand beach. We will receive white-gloved service, a personalized menu including a four course meal and includes a bottle of Ruffino Prosseco with a long stem rose!
