"My fiance and I lived on Oahu when we decided to get married. Hawaii is such a wonderful place, we determined that for our honeymoon we would Island hop and check out the rest of the state! We went to Maui, Kauai and the Big Island.

"On the Big Island, we took a helicopter ride to see the island from a different perspective. This is something I would recommend to everyone traveling to Hawaii. You get fabulous views of the most pristine parts of Hawaii — sites you could never see by car or bicycle. Truly breathtaking.

"In Maui, our most memorable moment was driving to the summit of Haleakala volcano and watching the sunrise. It was the most amazing sunrise, like watching it from heaven. We also went to the "sacred" pools and swam, dove off cliffs into amazingly blue waters, got to kiss under a gorgeous waterfall back in a secluded natural pool that you have to wade across waters to get to. We truly felt like we were in Paradise!

"And we can't say enough about Kauai: It is absolutely beautiful and precisely what you dream Hawaii to be. Kauai is the most romantic of the islands, a beautiful place to make beautiful love in your new marriage!

"Honestly, all the Islands offer different things, different experiences, and all are worth seeing. My husband and I have since moved to the U.S. mainland with his job, but we will move back to the Islands as soon as possible. We have fallen in love there...it is our home, where our love blossomed!"
