Wedding prices at Kahua Ranch
Kahua Ranch does not publish wedding prices on its own site. We checked on November 14, 2026. Figures you see on listing sites are estimates from those sites, not from the venue, so we do not repeat them here. The way to get a real figure is to ask the venue for a written quote for your date and guest count.

Questions to ask before you sign
- What is the total for our date and guest count, with tax and service charge?
- Is there a food and drink minimum or a room-night minimum?
- May we bring our own photographer, videographer and officiant, and is there a fee for that?
- What is the plan if it rains or the surf is high?
- What time must music end?
Planning something small?
If you are eloping or renewing vows with a handful of guests, a public beach with a state permit can cost far less than a venue. See Big Island beach ceremony sites and their permit rules and how to elope in Hawaiʻi.
