They always say keep your political ideologies out of your business, and to a certain extent, I believe this to be true. But right now, this nation seems to be very much divided. And there are many people who flat out hate people who voted for Trump. We’re […]
Usually, around this time of the year my phone starts ringing with companies begging me to advertise with them. I never bite. They tell me, “It’s booking season!” Is it? I’ve planned over 5000 plus weddings now, and I till this day, I have no idea when booking […]
Hey everyone: future brides, current clients, and everyone in between! Man-o-man, has it been awhile since I’ve written on my website! When I first put up my internet wedding portal, I was very much – the active blogger. Mainly, I wrote to put up relevant content for my […]
I saw Batman vs. Superman a week after if came out and I thought it was great. SCREW THE CRITICS. It’s a long movie, about 2 and 1/2 hours long, and I made sure I didn’t drink any Diet Coke (because Diet Coke makes you pee!) As you probably […]
I’m sure you’ve heard of the TV show, Catfish, where people pretend to be someone their not to entice their victims into having an online affair. It’s both an entertaining and sad show to watch, and I admit, I’m addicted. Here in the wedding industry, we’ve been dealing with our […]
I just needed to clear the air because there have been some very dishonest wedding planners out there who are telling their clients that beach weddings are illegal, and the only option is to book with an expensive resort, or to book with a private property. The reason they are […]
You’ll find some pretty unique dessert places on Oahu, so leave that carb counting diet at home and go nuts. As always, there’s a handful of places here that are off the beaten path. Many of these small dessert shops don’t have the marketing budget to be featured in travel […]
So what can I say or admit? I’m a bit of a geek I guess. I watched Star Wars on premier night…alone. I couldn’t wait. I was gonna wait to watch it with my friends on another day, but anticipation got the better of me. So I took my […]
My really good friend is a Groupon addict. That app is on her phone and she’s always on the lookout for great deals that will lead to her next great adventure. For the most part, it’s worked out quite well. She’s gotten great deals at great prices with […]
Are you foodie? Well, I’m not sure if I’m a foodie, but I love food. Great tasting food. I love “unhealthy food” as well. I put that in quotes because in this day in age, it seems that every diet out there alienates some type of food or macro-nutrient […]
Affordable Hawaii Wedding Packages, great photo and video services, easy and fun planning
The State of Hawaii is a signature away from implementing a Climate Change tax. If passed, the hotel tax will be raised to 11%, and most likely this won't be the end - it never is. To make things worse, you're going to add a 4.75% General Excise tax, which literally taxes tax.
It's bullshit - and to all my future wedding couples, I truly apologize for our government.
The money will go towards curbing climate change, which let's face it, Hawaii is so tiny that no matter what we do - it can't curb climate change. Our active volcano contributes more Co2 than tourism. And they always use these funds in all areas of the budget. Climate Change is just an excuse. Our State already raised the GE Tax to pay for our rail, which isn't done. And they took that money to give themselves raises, and to pay for god knows what. The state also paid itself by raiding our Hurricane Fund. They are so corrupt.
Currently, our Governor is suing gas companies for the Lahaina fires, which is more bullshit. The fires were caused by our local government's decision to not manage dry brush. When you drive down all of our roads, you will notice that the government doesn't landscape - anything. We used to. Now they just let it go and use the surplus money to give themself raises, and to give the homeless money to be homeless.
Hawaii is still a beautiful place to visit.
But it's not the best place to live, and you can blame that on stupid people who are in high positions of power.
This state is screwed !! Josh green is an idiot and they keep miss managing everything !! Fail rail proven useless! Bring in doge!! Climate change lol. In Jakarta alone they burn thousands of pounds of Plastic a day just cooking tofu in one village, meanwhile they take away plastic straws and bags in USA ya that helps with what’s happening elsewhere !
Vote accordingly
So sorry to hear that Steve!!
Don't forget the stupid people who vote for these stupid people!
And to the very right, what looks like a flat rock, is our endangered Hawaiian monk Seal.
That's amazing.
Probably some of the most impressive make-up I’ve seen in the past 20 years I’ve been doing this.
