Aloha, I am Rev./Capt. Howie, a non-denominational minister and Maritime Captain residing in the Hawaiian Islands. I have been performing weddings in Hawaii for over 30 years. A few of our favorite Hawaiian wedding package locations include off-the-beaten-path white sand beaches, lush Hawaii wedding gardens with tropical waterfalls. I felt a calling to dedicate myself to performing very meaningful and spiritual Hawaiian weddings. So here I am over 30 years later, still loving it!

Add ReviewYou made everything so easy and enjoyable for us. We are so happy to say that our wedding was absolutely ‘us.’ We really wanted it to be about the lifetime commitment we were making to each other (not the hugeness of what a wedding can be), and it was. We even went surfing after our wedding and kept saying to each other, “How awesome is this? We got married this morning and now we’re surfing!†We then put our wedding clothes back on and celebrated with dinner on the beachfront at Waikiki, toasting to the fabulousness of our Hawaiian wedding. It was the most perfect, relaxed, and happy day we could have ever imagined.Report
Thinking about planning weddings in Hawaii from a different country is a little overwhelming. It was all stress-free. Your website is so informative that all you have to do is decide what you want. The various details and changes that came up along the way were all handled beautifully through your office. Your staff made everything so easy. Thank you!Report
I went to Hawaii to renew wedding vows with my husband of 20 years and my experience with Above Heaven’s Gate was amazing. I live in Las Vegas and when I purchased the package online, communicating with Jodi and Sara was always easy and pleasant. When the big day arrived, our first impression was outstanding. The beautiful white limo was waiting for us. At first I didn’t believe it was ours because it was more than I expected. All of the flowers were beautiful and the attention to detail was exquisite.Report

We would like to thank all of you from the bottom of our hearts the happiest day of ours life’s, October 21th 2010! We wanted a magical Oahu beach wedding so we started to look for the perfect place. We found it within five minutes on the internet – Above Heaven´s Gate. It was the one! We didn’t hesitate for a second and we´re glad for that!Report
Thank you so much for making our Hawaii wedding day so special and perfect. We were really moved by the ceremony as Captain Howie so beautifully wove our two religions together, Christian and Hindu. The staff was wonderful throughout the whole process and was always available to answer our questions, making the whole experience more personal. We just received our photos today in less than two weeks and are thrilled. Our flowers were absolutely amazing. The private Pukalani Falls Garden felt tranquil and was perfect for our ceremony. Your hospitality was great in person and on phone or email. We’re so happy we chose you. Our wedding on Oahu with Captain Howie and Above Heaven’s Gate was absolutely wonderful!Report
I was a little nervous about the concept of booking weddings in Hawaii – so far away. However, once I made my first call and scheduled everything, you all made me feel at ease. You have a great website, it had everything broken down and it gave us many different options. I liked how we could mix and match your Hawaii wedding packages, and ultimately design our own. Plus, once we got there, you gave us even more options to make our package even better.Report
We would sincerely like to thank you, with all of our love, for making our Hawaii wedding day a truly special time. Your spectacular Hobbit House, amazing Pukalani Falls Garden, and the gorgeous Angels Bay Beach were the perfect setting for the ceremony itself and most importantly the wedding photos which we will cherish forever. Captain Howie’s beautiful ceremony brought my entire family to tears.Report
