Wedding catering in Kōloa.
Kōloa’s wedding ground is plantation architecture and estate lawns — the 1930s plantation-house venues, the Kukuiʻula belt’s private events, Old Town’s wooden charm. From $175 a guest plus staffing, itemized to the line.
The week in Kōloa
Rehearsal dinner in a plantation garden, reception on the estate lawn, recovery brunch at the rental. The wedding-week contract covers all of it from $175/guest plus staffing — one crew that knows the kitchen by the reception.
Season and logistics
The South Shore carries the winter — drier and calmer November through March, when the North gets its rain. The $50–$75 South Shore surcharge applies; Old Kōloa’s venues are minutes from our logistics base, and none of it involves a bridge.
Questions, answered
From $175/guest plus staffing (servers $55/hr, sous $75/hr, 4-hour floor), against the island’s ~$75/plate average — the gap buys the estate-week format and an itemized written quote. Worked examples live on the wedding-cost page.
Yes, within the house rules — kitchen access and load-in are settled with the venue in the quote phase, and menus adapt to the kitchen the house actually has.
Yes — the dry side carries winter, and December is the island’s compression point. Book three to six months out for December wedding weeks.
