Beautiful Venue and Supportive Team

Such a great choice for a wedding venue! The team is genuine and truly cares about your experience.

I visited last year to check out the venue and actually requested a viewing last minute. The team was kind enough to accommodate me especially with my limited time on the island. During the tour they didn't pressure us to close on the venue, and didn't push for unnecessary frills that we didn't need for the wedding.

Before making the final decision I was going back and forth with many questions after my visit and they(Heather & Layne) were patient and answered all my questions. I think the patience and quick response was quite telling of how it would be if I secured the venue.

It was a right choice! Heather was my main contact throughout the planning of my destination wedding and she was great. Super responsive, patient, level-headed and organized. I really loved working with Heather and she actually ended up being my Day of Coordinator!

The day of my wedding was the first time I actually tried all the food! Since it was a destination wedding I didn't get the opportunity to test anything but was really hoping it would all be good based on other reviews. My guests and I were so happy with the food!

The bartender (Darren) was also awesome, such fun and happy vibes to keep us going when the nerves came up.

There is a range of picture ops at the venue with the beautiful mountains in the background. My wedding was actually held after the rain but the mountains still look cool with the clouds!

Amazing Service - Gorgeous Venue

If there's one word to sum up the experience at the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club in Oahu, it's simply "perfection." From the moment we set foot on the grounds for our wedding, to the blissful moments captured in photos afterward, every aspect of our special day was flawlessly executed.

Nestled amidst the stunning landscapes of the Ku'olau Mountain range, the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club is a true gem. Surrounded by lush greenery and panoramic views, it provided an exquisite backdrop for our celebration. The sheer beauty of the venue left our guests in awe, making every moment feel like a fairytale.

However, it wasn't just the breathtaking scenery that made our day unforgettable; it was the incredible staff who went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. From the initial planning stages to the final photo, the team at the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club was attentive, accommodating, and utterly professional. Their expertise and dedication made us feel at ease, allowing us to relax and enjoy every precious moment of our wedding day.

One of the highlights was undoubtedly the impeccable service we received. From coordinating vendors to attending to every last detail, the staff seamlessly orchestrated the entire event, leaving us free to savor the magic of the day. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel like cherished guests in their own home, adding an extra layer of warmth and intimacy to our celebration.

And let's not forget about the photos! The Royal Hawaiian Golf Club provided the perfect backdrop for capturing memories that will last a lifetime. Whether against the backdrop of rolling hills or beneath the swaying palm trees, every shot was a work of art, thanks to the natural beauty of the venue.

In conclusion, if you're searching for a wedding venue that combines unparalleled beauty with exceptional service, look no further than the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club. From the moment you arrive, you'll be swept away by the enchanting surroundings and the genuine hospitality of the staff. Trust me, your special day will be nothing short of perfection. Thank you so much!

Great venue for weddings

This venue has wedding packages that not other venues offer. I am grateful that a couple of the packages comes with a coordinator. The wedding would not have ran so smoothly if it wasn't for Kaui and the RHGC staff. They were on top of everything. Even though I messed up on not informing the coordinator with every details. She was ready for all the curve balls I unfortunately threw at her. Make sure you tell her everything. The venue is gorgeous with beautiful surrounding mountains and the food was delicious. I received a lot of compliments about the food.

If you want a Memory make it here!

Heather and her team were simply amazing. About a day turn around for response to questions and the venue for pictures was just stunning. The bar setup efficient. I've never had a perfect plate still warm and meat tender with a guest list of 115 but they nailed it. Not one complaint from the guests. If planning is not your forte they provided lists of previous vendors who they have worked with in the past, this was very helpful. Thank you for making our Khaki ball truly Memorable.

Hidden Gem :)

We are so happy that we chose the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club to be our wedding venue. It was beautiful and elegant, which is exactly what we were looking for. Gorgeous views of the Ko’olau mountains, great service (we loved our bartender Berin…he had such great energy), and excellent food. We were impressed with everything they had to offer. Our guests were equally impressed and many commented that they didn’t realize this place existed, as it’s tucked away in beautiful Maunawili.
Managers Llayne Kaui and Brianna Kaui were awesome…super friendly, accommodating, and responsive with communication. They also worked really well together with my wedding coordinator. Llayne was very attentive and made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the reception. We are so grateful that we chose to have our special day at the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a beautiful place for your wedding. It’s a hidden gem :)

Best wedding venue!

My husband and I absolutely loved having our wedding ceremony and reception at the Royal Hawaiian Golf Course in Kailua. It was a spectacular backdrop that all of our guests truly loved, making for remarkable photos. The venue is huge, allowing for many guests, though we opted for a smaller, intimate wedding. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the food both at the cocktail hour and during dinner service. Our guests were also thrilled with the servers, who were extremely kind and hospitable. Jeneen, our venue coordinator, went above and beyond to answer all questions, which was a lot to ask for especially during the pandemic. We felt very confident in Jeneen and all that work at the venue. We would absolutely recommend Royal Hawaiian Golf Course as a wedding venue. We were absolutely lucky to have found this venue, away from the business of waikiki.

Best venue/event coordinator

They were very understanding during pandemic times. Very timely, responsive and so kind. They helped me a lot with our wedding being a destination-wedding, from decorations to planning to everything! Janene could've been my wedding planner/venue coordinator, she is the best! The price was very reasonable for such a breathtakingly beautiful and private venue, no parking to worry about paying for and the best part, all that and we still remained within our $10,000 budget.

Beautiful. Majestic. Breathtaking views. Excellent service.

We are incredibly grateful for the Royal Hawaiian Golf Club (RHGC), Guy Yamamoto, and Jeneen Hoopai (RHGC Event Coordinator). The venue itself is so beautiful with all the lush greenery, well-kept grounds, Ko'Olau mountains in the background and long drive in from the main road. We had a very different and unique wedding due to COVID but RHGC were so accommodating and understanding that everything went seamlessly! Due to COVID restrictions, we had a Zoom wedding ceremony with only our parents and siblings in-person and a drive-through reception. Originally our ceremony was supposed to be outside in their wedding area but since it was raining that day, we moved the ceremony indoors in the lobby area, which was beautiful, bright, and perfect. We then had the drive-through reception in their roundabout area which was perfect for our friends & family to easily drive up to say hi to us (without getting out of their cars) and safely leave. So easy! Jeneen & Guy helped us to make our wedding dreams come true and were with us every step of the way. We are so grateful for them and their amazing service! The Royal Hawaiian Golf Club is the perfect venue if you're looking for a place away from town/the city.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
