i renewed my vows at the poly a number of years back. did you book through an agent or diy? we used the agents package at the time and it was treated just like a marriage except you didn't have to go get a license from the court house (don't know if this has changed). It was wonderful the service was great, our wedding planner phoned the day before to check all the details, we picked our own tunes to be played throughtout the ceremony. You can even arrange someone to come to your room to have your makeup done, well your wifes makeup. by chance as we wee waiting in the lobby of the poly the singer from the laua was going by and we got our ow personal polyenesian wedding song right there and then. it was a hard job for me not to cry and ruin my make up. the service was top notch. By the way i think thats a wonderful surprise that your planning and what a great thought.
