Jim,
First of all, congratulations!
Secondly, although I love Kamana for its Indian food, it's not a particularly romantic setting and wouldn't be my choice for such an event, but that's just me. Cafe Pesto would be my choice followed by Ponds and then Hilo Bay Cafe. Although the latter has a nice view, I don't think it is as good as it used to be in its old location.
If you can afford it and can get there, Kilauea Lodge in Volcano is excellent for special occasions and good food. It's quite expensive though (http://kilauealodge.com/restaurant/dinner/). It's also a place that if you call for a reservation and tell them it's a special occasion, they will help to make it special.
