Best way to keep things simple for your meal go for a buffet!

Top 3 reasons you should go for a buffet:
1. Less work! You won’t need to track down guests’ meal choices for a buffet style meal.
2. Variety! Even the pickiest eaters will be able to enjoy!
3. Encourages guests to mingle and have a more interactive atmosphere

We have an amazing selection of buffet style menus featuring different cuisines with local ingredients.

Stuck between two cake flavors? Why choose! Pick them both 🍰🤍💗

Top Tier: Guava Cake with Lilikoi Mousse Filling and Vanilla Buttercream

Bottom Tier: Caramel Mud Cake with Caramel Cream cheese and Vanilla Buttercream

Pro Tip: keep the buttercream flavor on the outside of both tiers the same so you have a seamless finish on the outside of the cake 🍰

To first look or not? That’s the question!

There are so many reasons people choose to do a first look or not. The answer comes down to what you want to experience in those first moments together before you say I do.

Reasons for a first look:
- having a moment together and calm the nerves with your favorite person. It can allow yourself to be more present during the ceremony
- allows the opportunity to do more group photos or family photos so you can relax after the ceremony
- private vows just for each other
- cultural traditions

Reasons to wait til ceremony:
- the dramatic moment of seeing each other for the first time walking down the aisle in front of friends & family
- superstitions (bad luck to see each other before the wedding)
- potential for a stronger emotional reaction during the ceremony due to the anticipation
- cultural traditions

No matter what you choose we can make it happen!

Our Story

Papa Kona Events & Catering can help you plan events at our Kailua-Kona Waterfront Row venue, as well as offer full service catering for events off-site at businesses and private homes. Papa Kona in Kailua-Kona is two floors, and on the first floor is our restaurant, bar and cafe. The second floor is the event space, with our full bar, open air conference room (dance floor!) and dining lanai perched over Kailua Bay. We try to make event planning stress-free by offering an Event Package that includes the tables, chairs, linens, glassware, flatware, china, set up and clean up. In addition, we also provide full catering services from passed appetizers (pupus!) through dinner, coffee service, specialty desserts, wedding cakes and dessert displays.
