For our darling pair, it was love at first sight! Josh proposed to the love of his life, Megan, on their 11th anniversary, which happened to be November 25, the same day as their Oahu elopement! It couldn’t be more perfect! Fate was on their side from the very moment they met… Please keep reading to re-live their fantastic day…

Oahu is a special place for our beautiful couple; Josh was stationed at Kaneohe Bay when he was in the Marines! Since they are so laid back, they wanted a carefree, elegant, and simple affair with just the two of them in a beautiful place.

So, Kualoa Regional Park Beach was the perfect location for their Oahu elopement because it has a white sandy beach and dramatic mountain views too!

Since Oahu holds a special place in both of their hearts, these photos are even more moving… The tropical ambiance added to the significance of the day! Their love story has come full circle; November 25 will forever be a sacred date for our beautiful couple!

Our lovely bride Megan looks understated yet elegant in her lace gown with a pop of vibrant tropical flowers…it fits the relaxed yet beautiful atmosphere of their incredible day!

Congratulations, Megan and Josh! We are so happy for you both! It was an honor to coordinate and photograph your big day! May you have many more blissful years to come!

“He knows how much I love this island, and he has never been, so it was only right we have an Oahu elopement,” Marielle told us before her big day! She has been many times, but since Jonathan has never been, she was thrilled to show him the island and celebrate their wedding with their closest friends and family! Let’s re-live their beautiful day with them through our favorite highlights…

Our delightful couple met on a dating app in 2020 and hit it off instantly…it was pretty unexpected, but it was the best outcome – it was meant to be! These two love the water and the beach. They joke about getting a small cottage by the beach and escaping it all! But an Oahu elopement isn’t too bad either, we think! And they couldn’t have asked for a better day…

And to the cheers of their friends and family, they said, “I do!” Our beautiful newlyweds radiate happiness and love in these photos, don’t you agree?

Let’s talk about this lighting for a minute… how stunning are these first intimate portraits as newlyweds? The light is so soft and golden, illuminating the tropical scenery…

This scenic location is Papailoa Beach, and it offers the privacy and natural beauty that our beautiful couple dreamed of for their Oahu elopement!

Marielle looks so radiant! We love her beachy yet elegant off-the-shoulder dress – it was perfect for a beach wedding!

As the sun lowered in the sky, these two shared many laughs together…it was like a dream that they didn’t want to end!

We wish Marielle and Jonathon all the love, happiness, and peace in the years ahead! We can’t wait to see you in Hawaii one day again! Sending you lots of aloha…

An Oahu destination wedding was the ultimate dream for these two! The island holds a special place in their romance because they got engaged on Oahu’s Northshore! Easy, relaxed, and elegant is just what our beautiful couple wanted for their big day… so Hawaii felt like the perfect place to celebrate with their close friends and family! Let’s relive their magical day with them through their gorgeous photos!

The look on the groom’s face when he sees his beautiful bride always gets us! Dwayne was no different when he saw his radiant bride, Tiffany! These two go wayyyy back….they actually went to high school together but never met until their 10-year reunion and have been together ever since!

There is something so special about an Oahu destination wedding! Our beautiful newlyweds were so grateful to be joined by their friends and family for their fantastic day. Tiffany was a little nervous about planning a destination wedding with so many details to consider, but as you can see, it went without a hitch, thanks to our incredible team at Simple Oahu Wedding!

Our lovely newlyweds were ready to bask in newlywed bliss after their portraits with their extended family! The lighting in these photos is so light and airy that it looks like they are encircled in a golden glow!

Their first photos as husband and wife look like they came out of a tropical dream! And they had the entire beach at Kualoa Ranch Secret Island to themselves!

The secluded beach was just one amazing location for their portraits at their Oahu destination wedding! We love this venue because it offers a variety of picturesque Hawaiian backdrops like this mountain range!

We wish Tiffany and Dwayne all the happiness and joy in the years to come! Congratulations! We are so happy your beautiful day was just as you dreamed!

These lovely brides have a very sweet engagement story! After dating for 11 years, Alaina and Katherine’s Oahu elopement was fun, elegant, and full of love! Their beautiful day was a blissful dream that melted our hearts, too…keep reading to see more highlights of their incredible day!

And for our love birds, their story began at the University of New Mexico, where Alaina currently works! She has been there for 11 years – just as long as they have been dating! What’s even more romantic is that Katharine proposed to Alaina on November 11, 2020, two years after their Oahu elopement!

They had just closed on a house and were supposed to get the keys to it on that very day, but unfortunately, they weren’t ready. But Katherine took Alaina to the backyard, popped down on one knee, and said, “I know we do not have the keys to the house, but you have the key to my heart! Will you marry me?” Alaina said yes, of course!

A Hawaii Dream

Their special day was very endearing and beautiful, as you can see! They are so happy in these photos, just the two of them, and more in love than ever! Their intimate Oahu elopement was on the grassy lawn at Kualoa Regional Park, with the most epic backdrops of the mountains in the distance! With a sandy beach right in front of the grassy lawn, it’s truly the best of both worlds!

Our beautiful brides do love a bit of fun! They are known as the life of the party in their friends’ circle, and you can see why! So we love this fun surprise detail!

After a few romantic portraits with the mountains in the distance, we wandered down to the beach with our beautiful brides! They looked radiant together with their tropical bouquets! Their photos’ lighting was so soft and ethereal….like a painting!

Congratulations to Alaina and Katherine! May you have many more happy years together with your son and pup! We hope to see you again soon!

The time was right for our beautiful couple! We recently had the pleasure of planning Samantha and Dinos’ Oahu venue wedding! These two have been dating for nearly ten years, can you believe it?! They originally met at Ohio State University and have been inseparable since! They couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day so let’s see some of our favorite highlights from their incredible day…

Initially, our beautiful couple was playing with the idea of eloping in Maui, but they came across our company, Simple Oahu Wedding, and loved the idea of a small, intimate wedding ceremony with their friends and family! It was all they could have asked for! Our down-to-earth pair wanted something simple, relaxed, fun, and, most importantly, full of love! Their friends and family were more than happy to travel the distance to celebrate with them, as you’ll see below!

Our newlyweds couldn’t stop smiling! Their beautiful Oahu venue wedding was held at Kualoa Ranch Secret Island, where the photo opportunities are endless! It felt like a dream for our newlyweds with the cinematic backdrop and the private beach. Its serene and picturesque scenery made for the most tropically elegant photos of our darling pair! They had the entire beach to themselves…so romantic!

Samantha looked exquisite in her beachy, flowy gown! It was subtle yet elegant and perfect for the ambiance of their Oahu venue wedding! Dinos’ sharp blue suit reflected the ocean blue, too… laid-back tropical elegance done right!

The dramatic cliffs were the most stunning background for their intimate first portraits as husband and wife! Just another reason why we love this location for a venue wedding! Their photos are so soft and pastel-like, which adds to the dreaminess of their incredible day, don’t you think?

Congratulations to Samantha and Dinos on your wedding! It was a pleasure to plan this incredible day for you both! May you have many more beautiful years together!

Simple and relaxed would be the perfect words to describe Kathy and Kelsey’s Oahu elopement! Their big day was exactly what they dreamed of! Our lovely couple is originally from the Yukon and wanted to escape and elope in paradise! Let’s see more of their beautiful day…

The simplicity and elegance of Kathy and Kelsey’s Oahu elopement reminded us that their love and commitment to each other is the most important thing! It was a little windy and overcast, but these outdoor adventure lovers didn’t mind! They love snowmobiling, camping, and adventuring in the rugged Canadian wilderness…

A Kiss In Paradise – An Oahu Elopement

With Chinaman’s hat in the distance, these two sealed their vows with a kiss! This beautiful setting is on the east side of Oahu – Kualoa Regional Park Beach. It’s a scenic spot with plenty of palm trees, turquoise waters, and the island in the distance!

Believe it or not, our charming newlyweds met through playing board games with mutual friends! Who knew a board game would spark something? They then got engaged on vacation to Seattle on a nighttime beach walk with mini doughnuts! Very romantic and sweet in more ways than one!

You can see they did have one special guest – our beautiful newlywed’s one-year-old son Wyatt! It was so adorable to see him join his loving parents! As you can imagine, they were pleased he was there and could explore Oahu too!

Kathy looked stunning in her simple yet all-white look; it was pure and fresh! And Kelsey couldn’t stop smiling at his beautiful bride!

Their Oahu elopement will mark the first of many new adventures as husband and wife!

A warm mahalo to Kathy and Kelsey for choosing Simple Oahu Wedding for your elopement! We wish you and your son all the best in the years ahead! Hopefully, we will see you again one day!

Paradise Found

Firstly, their tropical ceremony began in the late morning with clear blue skies and plenty of Hawaiian sunshine! The scenic setting for their Oahu venue wedding was held at Paradise Cove, and its beautiful calm waters, palm trees, and rocky reef area make it beautiful for photos!

Our lovely couple was surrounded with love by their friends and family on their big day! However, they had never been to Oahu before, but they were excited to share this experience with their friends and family!

Great Outdoor Lovers

In addition, these two love the outdoors and enjoy nature’s peace, so Oahu felt like a proper fit when planning their wedding! Their photos capture the natural tropical beauty of the island with the palm trees and epic ridge line in the distance!

Our beautiful newlyweds met online! And Jeff proposed on a snowmobiling trip in Idaho on February 17th, 2021! How far away the snow seems from these tropical shores on their Oahu venue wedding! Moreover, we were so happy to celebrate with you here in paradise!

Our charming couple wanted something simple, relaxed, and fun for their Oahu venue wedding. As you can tell in their photos, the day was just as they had hoped! Furthermore, they look so happy together and ready to begin their next chapter!

“David stayed by my side during a hard time in my life; I knew he was the one.” April and David’s Oahu destination wedding culminated with love, family, friends, and fun! It was a beautiful and relaxed affair that reminded us why we love what we do at Simple Oahu Wedding! We are so happy for these two!

For a bit of backstory, our gorgeous couple met online! David was the first one April met that night – fate definitely had a hand in their meeting! They began dating with intention and loved each other’s company! Fast forward years of long-distance dating later, and here they are tying the knot at their Oahu destination wedding!

Their friends and family were so thrilled for them despite the fact they had initially wanted to elope to Oahu! However, many friends and family wanted to travel and be there for their big day, so they chose Secret Island at Kualoa Ranch to host their celebration! And to their surprise and delight, many were more than happy to travel to celebrate with them!

The Aloha Spirit

Our beautiful couple was sent with many kisses and cheers on their way as we captured their first moments as newlyweds! They look so blissfully happy! David loves anything to do with the ocean, and April loves adventuring together, so Oahu was the perfect fit for these two! She looks radiant in her tropical Haku flower crown…that bouquet is the picture of Hawaii’s tropical beauty!

How gorgeous is this backdrop!? It doesn’t get any more authentically Hawaiian with these Jurassic-like cliffs! But we were so happy to see their vision for their Oahu destination wedding come true! And, most importantly, celebrate with their friends and family!

Congratulations to our beautiful newlyweds, April and David, on your Oahu destination wedding! You were a joy, and we wish you all the blessings in your next adventure together! May you together forever carry the aloha spirit in the years to come!
