History
The He’eia State Park is a historic location in Hawaii. The park was cherished by ancient Hawaiians who named it “Ka Lae O Kealohi” (the point of shimmering light). He’eia State Park was given this magical name because during sunset, the rays of light beaming through the Ko’olau mountain range illuminate the bay resulting in a heavenly glow.

Amazing views and cheaper than hotels!
Some might not like having to set up your own venue, but I’m a control freak so I loved it. They have a lot of tables and chairs, and a large kitchen with freezer, refrigerator, and food warmer for your use. They provide the trash liners and even a ladder you can use to set up. The best part is that you do not have to clean up and put away the tables and chairs as long as you pay for the cleaning package (which is totally worth it). You can also rent some other equipment they have (projector, screen, arches, etc.). The only thing is that you have to expect that it is still a State Park that hosts tours during the day and has a gift shop. So there may be people coming to the venue that you didn’t invite. There is no way to prevent that. There are pros and cons to this venue, so it just depends on what you want.

Site Visit
I had the privilege of working with Tina who was very flexible with setting up 2 site visits. She is passionate about her position and the company she is working for. She shared her knowledge about ceremony and reception ideas.

As for the state park it has been renovated with upgrades in the prep kitchen, it has a wonderful rustic interior, and the view of Kaneohe Bay is gorgeous.

Tina the He'eia State Park Events Manager was so helpful. She goes out of her way to ensure your wedding day is perfect. Basically it's like having a wedding planner come with the venue. The venue is stunning and Tina is the cherry on the cake. You won't be disappointed with this stunning location!
