Looking for an extreme wedding location? Dena Braun tipped us off to Ancient Hawaiian Weddings in her article in the January 2009 edition of West Jet’s up! Magazine. Ancient Hawaiian Weddings offers a number of different wedding packages, one of which takes place on Mount Haleakala at 10,023 feet above sea level.
Dena writes that Mount Haleakala is “the world’s highest place to legally wed”. It’s also an active volcano (although it hasn’t erupted since 1790).
The only information we could find was at http://www.hawaiileihochzeit.com/locationsENG.html near the bottom of the page. The site says that it’s a 2 hour drive up to the summit where you’ll find a volcano crater that is 3,000 feet deep, 7.5 miles long, and 2.5 miles wide.
In the up! Article, Dena states that packages start at US$2000. But even though it’s a Hawaiian wedding, keep in mind that the weather at 10,000 feet is a little chilly – often around 50 degrees Fahrenheit (that’s about 10 degrees celcius) – so this is definitely a summer wedding destination!
