A 10th marriage anniversary is always worth honoring in our book! We were delighted to help coordinate this special milestone for Talar and James, who actually spent their honeymoon on the island years ago. The loving couple hails from down-under (Australia) and wanted to return to one of their favorite destinations for their celebration. Since they love the Hawaiian islands, an Oahu vow renewal felt just right! They were really looking forward to sharing the Hawaii experience with their children too!

Their intimate celebration was held under swaying palm trees and the golden sun at Wai’alae Beach. Both Talar and James are musicians, so it was important to them to include some traditional Hawaiian songs to enhance the tropical atmosphere! The beach is one of their favorite places, so our lovely couple’s Oahu vow renewal felt even more special…especially with their close friends and family in attendance!

A Family Experience To Remember

With their darling kiddos in tow, we walked further down the beach to capture some sweet family moments. Since Jack and Evie have never been to Hawaii, this also felt like a memorable family vacation on top of their 10th anniversary!

We love this beach in particular because of the low-hanging palm trees. They beautifully frame our charming family and create that magical Hawaiian ambiance they fell in love with on their honeymoon. It created new experiences and captured new memories for their sweet family! We love the creamy whites they wore to match the beachy atmosphere…

Congratulations on reaching an incredible marriage milestone, Talar and James! We hope you had a lovely time with your family! May you have many more beautiful years together!

Hawaii destination wedding packages are more popular than ever because they offer unparalleled beauty wrapped into one easy-to-manage… well, package. Piecing together all the elements of a wedding is a monumental task on its own, but arranging them thousands of miles overseas (in a vastly different time zone) is nearly impossible to manage. Whether it’s on Maui, Oahu, Kauai, or the Big Island, we’ll help you find a Hawaii destination wedding package that’s everything you’ve dreamed of and then some. 

What Are Hawaii Destination Wedding Packages?

Hawaii destination wedding packages contain everything you’ll need for a romantic Big Day in the Aloha state. From a Hawaii wedding coordinator to locations and ministers, all of our packages include hand-picked wedding essentials that are truly the best the islands have to offer. This means you can sit back and trust that one of the most important days in your life has been beautifully wrapped up and will be handed to you, like a lovely gift waiting to be opened. Want to know what’s inside that present? 

All of our Hawaii destination wedding packages include:

• An officiant
• An on-site coordinator
• Professional photography and hi-res photos
• A bridal bouquet from our floral selections
• Leis for ceremony exchange
• Beach wedding permit and liability insurance OR venue selection 
• Our list of recommended vendors
• Complimentary consultation with a travel specialist
• Complimentary concierge service
• And more!

You can always personalize your package with add-ons and customizations to your heart’s content. 

Think of it as comparing a travel cruise to renting a boat, hiring entertainment, and plotting out your itinerary. With a cruise, you’ll arrive and relax in the sunshine, knowing that everything has been taken care of. However, with the non-packaged option, showing up is simply the first step of a marathon of legwork. There’s a reason why no one takes the second route. 

Do Hawaii Destination Wedding Packages Include Airfare and Hotels?

Hawaii destination wedding packages do not include airfare and hotel accommodations. 

There are numerous insurance liabilities involved with arranging travel, and big hitters like Expedia and Travelocity have the financial capital to ensure your safety and the well-being of your belongings. These huge companies have streamlined flights, hotels, and car rentals. 

On the other hand, small wedding planning businesses have perfectly curated all the elements that go into a Hawaii wedding without losing that personal touch and building one-to-one relationships. Leave the travel to the big guys and let us take care of your Big Day. 

How Much Do Hawaii Destination Wedding Packages Cost?

Tracking down accurate prices are complicated, but fortunately, we’ve already run the numbers for you! Check out our comprehensive article on Hawaii destination wedding costs for a complete breakdown. 

To put it briefly, let’s use our Oahu weddings as a base. These gorgeous Hawaii destination wedding packages start with a simple Oahu beach elopement at $1,850 and go up to the breathtaking Kualoa Ranch Paliku Gardens Oahu venue ceremony for $9,500.. With flights and lodging tallying in at roughly $6,000, this puts the entire trip (from plane flight to “I do”) between $7,850 and $15,500, depending on your package, add-ons, island, and venue choices. If you are planning on having a reception with friends and family you can quickly get to over $30,000 pretty quickly.

Hawaii Destination Wedding Packages Are Convenient & Simple

With a Hawaii destination wedding package, you’ll be working with one company that expertly engineers all the little gears to make the whole machine run seamlessly. You’ll build a relationship with a trusted advisor. This person will be someone you can touch base with whenever questions or concerns crop up. 

This means simplicity at its finest. With a wedding package, there’s no need to contact multiple vendors or orchestrate the details while you’re on vacation. Just a single payment can cover everything, no worrying about little charges here and there — Your Hawaii destination wedding package will cover it all. Or you can customize it with Hawaii wedding add-ons that will be conveniently calculated into your overall total, allowing you to put your mind at ease and relax by the poolside.

Types of Ceremonies in Hawaii Destination Wedding Packages 

There are two types of ceremony packages for Hawaii destination weddings: beach or venue. Come with us and we’ll explore the differences, pros, and cons!

Hawaii Beach Weddings – Who Are They Best For?

• Ideal for fewer than 30 guests
• Includes beach permit and insurance
• Less expensive than a venue
• No indoor option
• Gorgeous backdrops

With beach weddings, simplicity reigns supreme. These packages are ideal for weddings with less than 30 people or eloping couples with few guests. Nothing can outdo the glistening ocean and the soft sensation of digging your toes in the sand. The Hawaii shoreside practically takes care of the decorating–which is convenient and fortunate since many decorative items are restricted on Hawaii beaches. 

Our packages abide by all state laws and regulations, and a beach wedding permit and liability insurance are included in every package. As a private citizen, securing these legal requirements is immensely difficult, so ensuring your Hawaii destination beach wedding package includes up-to-date paperwork is crucial. 

Because of the money saved on booking a venue, Oahu beach wedding packages and Maui beach wedding packages tend to be less expensive. However, you’re also taking a small gamble on the weather. There are no indoor options available for beach weddings, so if the clouds aren’t behaving as planned, it could mean bringing out the umbrellas. Luckily, rainy days on the beach are rare, and few things compare to saying “I do” as the ocean keeps tempo, or listening to the deeply moving sound of your Hawaiian wedding officiant blowing the traditional conch shell to celebrate your union.

Plus all of the sunshine, smiles, and radiant ocean will be captured by the artistic lens of the Karma Hill Photography Team, voted the top 5 wedding photographers for the state of Hawaii for the past 4 years by Hawaii Magazine. 

Venue Hawaii Destination Wedding Packages

• Large range for guest counts
• Versatile locations
• Indoor options
• Shoreside venues available
• Beach photo opportunities

Venue Hawaii destination wedding packages offer a little more flexibility with guest counts and a wider range of location options. Hawaii is known for its gorgeous beaches, but it’s also known for its world-class resorts. From hotels on the oceanfront to hidden gems deep within the valleys, Hawaii has a versatile and spectacular selection of venues. We’ve hand-picked only the best Oahu wedding venues and Maui wedding venues that are both beautiful and dependable, so you can rest assured that your Big Day will go as smoothly as possible. 

You can even have the best of both worlds and select a venue wedding package then add on additional photography time so you can capture couple’s portraits on the beach. Or you can say “I do” at one of our shoreside wedding venues. The Paradise Cove Luau and Kualoa Ranch Secret Island both have toes-in-the-sand ceremony options while offering the exclusivity of a venue. Simple Maui Wedding offers a 5 Palms Resort venue that also has a shoreside terrace just a few steps away from the ocean.

It was an unforgettable day for Jessica and Cameron’s Oahu beach wedding in more ways than one! Our happy couple has never been to Hawaii, nor have nearly all of their guests, so to say they are excited to tie the knot in paradise is an understatement! Our sweet couple was set up by mutual friends, with Jessica’s coworker attempting to make the connection for them. But they finally met up and couldn’t stop chatting! The rest is history, as you’ll see below in their gorgeous photos…

The couple chose Papa’iloa Beach for their nuptials, drawn by its stunning views and raw beauty. It’s also a Simple Oahu Wedding staff favorite because of its sheer beauty. Jessica looked radiant in her lace gown, and Cameron smartly opted for a vest. Their joy was palpable in their Oahu beach wedding photos, as if it was all too surreal to be real!

How gorgeous does Jessica look with her flower crown? Simply stunning with the colorful contrast of the turquoise waters in the distance. The bright sunlight created a vibrant and colorful look to their wedding photography, reflecting their pure excitement and joy!

A few days after their beautiful Oahu beach wedding, the couple booked a “trash-the-dress” session – a fun add-on that provided even more fond memories from their time in Hawaii! Our happy pair enjoyed every moment of their bliss as they splashed around in the water. You can tell they have so much fun together and appreciate every minute since they have such busy schedules! This extra addition created more unforgettable memories together!

Congratulations, Jessica and Cameron! We hope you had a fantastic time with your family and enjoyed every minute of your beach wedding! We hope to see you again one day!

We recently had the pleasure of coordinating Cynthia and Ben’s Oahu venue wedding at Secret Island, which was nothing short of spectacular! All their friends and family gathered on a gorgeous sunny day, celebrating this intimate union with joy and love.

Our sweet couple has always had a deep admiration for all things Hawaiian – the people, culture, cuisine, atmosphere, and landscapes are all part of why they decided to have their special day here in Oahu. After the proposal, it became clear that they wanted their wedding to emphasize intimacy, nature, and beautiful scenery – so an Oahu wedding was a perfect fit for them! Keep reading to see more beautiful highlights from their day!

Tucked Away In Paradise

Cynthia and Ben’s Oahu venue wedding at Secret Island was a breathtaking experience for all in attendance. The location is as beautiful as it is private, making it ideal for an intimate celebration away from beach-goers.

Tucked away among the lush palm trees, Secret Island at Kualoa Ranch offers gorgeous views of the turquoise ocean and a long stretch of beach, creating the perfect backdrop for exchanging vows. It was exactly what Cynthia and Ben had hoped for – a place that embodies the natural beauty of Hawaii while providing them privacy to enjoy their day with those closest to them!

Our happy newlyweds made sure to absorb every moment of the day! Cynthia looks exquisite in these portraits in her minimal lace gown. Subtle elegance done right! The joy and love were palpable between these two as they walked together for the first as husband and wife. Such a surreal moment, no doubt, for this fun-loving pair!

The dramatic mountain views and tranquil fish pond only added to the romance and joy of their Oahu venue wedding! The happy newlyweds were showered in love and light to end their incredible day…

Mahalo, Cynthia and Ben, for letting us be part of their special celebration! We wish them all the best in this next chapter of their lives together. May you carry the aloha spirit in your hearts…

When these two lovebirds were planning their wedding, what mattered most was something simple and stress-free. So naturally, Hawaii came to mind thanks to its relaxed, easygoing lifestyle, and Shelby and Jeff just love Oahu! So after stumbling across our company, an Oahu venue wedding felt just right! The couple didn’t want a big fuss; they simply wanted to celebrate their love with their closest family members in a small, intimate setting. Keep scrolling to see more of their beautiful ceremony!

For The Rest Of Our Lives

For a bit of backstory on our lovely couple, Shelby is a therapist for autistic kids, while Jeff works in construction. They don’t have kids yet, but they are looking forward to starting a family in the near future! And what better way to start than with a beautiful wedding ceremony in the heart of Waikiki at the Chapel at Waikiki Lea!

The couple exchanged vows in the chapel under the majestic arches, creating a dramatic backdrop for their wedding photos. It was an intimate and family-orientated celebration, exactly what they had hoped for! The candles and lanterns added a romantic touch to the ceremony…

Afterward, we ventured out to the gardens and the serene waterfall for their romantic newlywed portraits. The peaceful waterfall and lush foliage created a magical setting for our new Mr. & Mrs. Welling! In addition, the architectural details around the property added another layer of romance and privacy to their first moments as husband and wife…

As you can see, we just love this venue because it offers both a private tropical setting and the option of a more traditional chapel ceremony. So it’s no wonder Shelby and Jeff chose it for their Oahu venue wedding – it’s the best of both worlds!

We wish Shelby and Jeff all the best as they embark on this exciting journey together as husband and wife! Congratulations to our happy newlyweds – may your love continue to grow stronger every day!

We love it when our couples showcase their personalities during their nuptials! Our sweet couple, Katie and Victor’s playful touch to their Oahu beach wedding celebration made their affair extra unique, as you’ll see below! Their close family members joined the happy couple on one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. The sky might have been a little overcast, but that didn’t dampen their spirits one bit!

Their wedding ceremony was simple yet elegant, with the focus firmly on the love that Katie and Victor share. It was clear to everyone present that these two were meant to be together forever! Their vows were heartfelt and touching, especially with the sound of the waves in the distance at Kualoa Beach Park and their children by their side…

One thing that really stood out about their wedding was the couple’s unique touch of personality. They both wore white converse shoes, which added a fun and playful element to the proceedings. It was a small detail, but it spoke volumes about who they are as individuals and as a couple. The message on the soles says it all!

Picturesque Paradise

As they posed for the camera, you could see the love between them in every glance and touch. They were completely lost in each other’s eyes, savoring every moment of being newlyweds.

The natural beauty of Oahu’s Kualoa Beach Park served as a stunning backdrop for their portraits. The gentle ocean waves crashing against the shore, the towering, Jurassic-like mountains in the distance – it was all so picturesque and romantic!

Even as they smiled for the camera, Katie and Victor couldn’t help stealing glances at each other, which was really endearing to photograph!

We feel honored to have witnessed such a beautiful celebration of love, and we wish Katie and Victor all the best as they begin this new chapter together as husband and wife with their sweet children!
