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 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!

Gabriel and Christina recently fulfilled their dreams of saying “I Do” in Hawaii!

After all, what could be more romantic? Keep scrolling to see more of their beautiful day!



For a bit of backstory, our sweet couple lives together in Charleston, South Carolina – where the coast and ocean are a part of their lifestyle.

From soaking up the sunsets to exchanging their vows to the sound of the waves – this is exactly what Gabriel and Christina had always envisioned when thinking about getting married. Kualoa Ranch at Secret Island provided the idyllic and private backdrop our charming pair hoped for…it was simply perfect for a nature-loving couple. And even though it was a relatively quick decision to get married in Hawaii in February, their dreamy celebration will undoubtedly be cherished forever!














Christina looked exquisite in her sleek gown and haku flower crown, while Gabriel was equally handsome in his black tux. Everything felt so serene as we photographed their newlywed portraits right by that calm blue water’s edge. Even though they tied the knot on the beach, they still dressed their very best! After all, it is an extraordinary life milestone! Don’t they make such a beautiful couple?

Oahu is no regular island for our beautiful couple – they met here! Kayo and Manprit’s Oahu venue wedding was a beautiful and intimate celebration of their love. The couple met in Oahu near Waikiki Beach and have visited Hawaii several times since, falling in love with the island’s natural beauty and laid-back atmosphere. So naturally, it became an obvious choice to hold their wedding here! Please keep reading to see how their special day unfolded…







After three years of a long-distance relationship, Manprit proposed to Kayo during a visit to Kyoto in the summer of 2019. Kayo said yes naturally, and the couple began planning their dream Oahu venue wedding!
For their big day, our charming couple wanted a simple, beachy, and relaxed wedding that reflected their love of Hawaii. So they chose Kualoa Ranch Secret Island as the location, a stunning venue with a private beach, beautiful natural surroundings, and a laid-back atmosphere. It felt like their own private island!









Kayo’s beautiful dress was elegant and sophisticated, with intricate details such as floral embroidery that added a touch of glamour. Yet, at the same time, the gown had a beachy, laid-back vibe that perfectly suited the natural beauty of the surroundings and her tropical blooms…they look so happy, walking hand in hand into the next chapter of their romance!








Manprit and Kayo’s newlywed portraits by the ocean were absolutely romantic and breathtaking. The couple looked so in love as they posed for pictures on the beach, with the stunning Hawaiian surroundings serving as an idyllic backdrop.
The soft, golden light of the setting sun added a peachy and dreamy glow to the photos, and the gentle sound of the waves in the background added to the romantic atmosphere. The couple looked radiant, with big smiles on their faces and a deep love and connection in their eyes!
As they posed for their newlywed portraits, our sweet pair seemed to be lost in each other, completely at ease and comfortable in each other’s company…










It was an honor to coordinate your beautiful wedding, Kayo and Manprit! We wish you all the love and happiness in the future ahead together!

“How are we not sick of each other yet?” said our darling newlyweds, Meghan and Matthew, before their Oahu venue wedding! These two have been head over heels for each other since the day they met! We love a good love story. Meghan knew they were going to be together the day she met him, and from that day forward, they’ve been inseparable ever since! So it was our pleasure to coordinate their intimate and beautiful wedding…keep reading to see some of our favorite moments from their amazing day!









Surrounded by their nearest and dearest, our sweet couple exchanged their vows to the peaceful sound of the waterfall at Waikiki Leia, one of our beautiful new Oahu wedding venue options! Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood in Waikiki, this lovely Oahu wedding venue has so many beautiful photo opportunities! It’s quiet and intimate but also convenient!






How happy they look! Meghan admitted to us that she is a hopeless romantic (we are too) and is constantly reminded by her big-hearted new husband, Matthew, to appreciate the little things and live in the moment – and they absolutely did at their Oahu venue wedding!




After their beautiful ceremony, we whisked our newlyweds away for a few portraits by the chapel! They have that newlywed glow in these photos! Matthew is a firefighter with the softest heart, and Meghan is a nurse, so they think they both work so well together because they see how fragile life is…So, hand in hand, our beautiful newlyweds are ready to live their life to the fullest as husband and wife!












Congratulations, Meghan and Matthew, on your recent nuptials! We couldn’t be happier for you both! May you continue to grow in love in the years ahead! And we have no doubt about that since you’re crazy for each other! Until we meet again,
