From the reviews
The Smith Family Luau is a beautiful tribute to Hawaii, its culture, and the rich history of its people and all those who have come before.

We were told the Smith family hosted the very best Luau on Kauai, and that proved more than true. What a great time, and the perfect grand finale for our Hawaii trip. The Smith family provides the ultimate in hospitality and entertainment.
Getting married at Smith Family Garden Luau
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
