Champagne and strawberries kick off each wedding celebration and sets the stage for romance at Turtle Bay Resort, one of Oahu's only full-service luxury properties. Just 45 minutes from Honolulu, yet blessed with a calming air of seclusion, Turtle Bay is home to more than 400 ocean-view rooms, 880 acres of verdant land, five miles of powder-soft sand and the North shore's legendary surf.

Watching the waves crash while dining at the property's contemporary restaurant, 21 Degrees North, is quite poetic. Yet, it is the Wedding Pavilion that affords the most spectacular views. Set high on the tip of Kuilima Point, the pavilion's clean lines, blossom-sprinkled ground, floor-to-ceiling windows and panoramic seascapes touch the heart while the ruby-colored sun sinking over a blue Pacific stirs the soul. The resort's expert coordinators orchestrates ceremonies and receptions to perfection.

Following sunset vows, brides and grooms wander starry-eyed down the beach, hand-in-hand or on horseback, and then retire to a well-appointed Beach Cottage. The next morning, newlyweds wake to a specially prepared breakfast in bed - a most romantic beginning to a lifetime together.
