"Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort recently announced that its Ocean Crystal Wedding Chapel has been refreshed and has reopened as the Akala Chapel under the management of Watabe Wedding Corporation. A traditional Hawaiian blessing and grand opening of the Akala Chapel was held on February 12, 2016.

The Akala Chapel, located in the center of the vast grounds of Hilton Hawaiian Village, is bordered by a stunning lava rock waterfall and surrounded by a lovely garden pool, island blooms and tropical greenery. The first floor features a spacious guest lounge and an elegant bride’s room.

The airy second story features seating for 50 guests and floor-to-ceiling windows providing the perfect backdrop to a special day. Couples may also opt for the adjacent Akala Gazebo for a venue at a smaller capacity of up to 25 guests.

“Akala” in the Hawaiian language references the sun, and characterizes the abundant sunlight which shines into the chapel."
