Chaminade Resort and Spa has great views and great service! A great place to photograph a wedding!
As a wedding professional since 1996, I have to say that one constant in our wedding venue rich town has been that Chaminade Resort is one of the top tier, and very few "all in one" locations in the area. I can refer clients with absolute certainty that Angela & Rebecca as well as the entire staff will perform flawlessly.
We have photographed several weddings at Chaminade and it is always such a pleasure. The site is gorgeous with an incredible view, and the staff are so organized and attentive that the weddings are always perfect. Love this site.
