A Ritz-Carlton O’ahu Turtle Bay Resort Wedding on Oʻahu’s untamed North Shore is where love stories unfold like poetry, with turquoise waves crashing against ancient lava rock and the sun dipping into the sea in a blaze of pink and gold. The Ritz-Carlton Turtle Bay is more than a resort; it’s a sanctuary for couples who want their wedding to feel effortless, intimate, and achingly beautiful.
Where Wild Beauty Meets Romance: Intimate Weddings at Ritz-Carlton Oʻahu, Turtle Bay
We’ve created the perfect resort Oahu wedding package that brings together the raw magic of nature with the refined elegance of this five-star retreat. It’s luxurious, but never stuffy. Romantic, but never overdone. Just the way love should be.
When it came to choosing ceremony locations, we didn’t just pick the prettiest spots. We chose the ones that truly feel like something special. These are places where your love can take center stage, framed by the stunning drama of Oʻahu’s North Shore.
This private stretch of coastline is tucked away from the resort’s main paths, offering a secluded slice of heaven for couples who want barefoot vows and ocean whispers. The beach itself is all soft sand and rugged edges, wild and romantic and just far enough off the beaten path.
But here’s the truly magical part: you can add a horse to your wedding photos. Yes, an actual horse. It’s a nod to the land’s paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) roots, and it adds a storybook charm you didn’t even know you needed. Want to go a step further? We’ll dress the horse in a floral lei to match your bouquet. It’s whimsical, unexpected, and incredibly romantic.
Prefer a touch of resort polish without losing the view? The Surfhouse Lawn is just steps from the elegant lobby, for ultimate ease. You’ll say “I do” on a grassy lawn overlooking endless ocean, framed by swaying palms and kissed by the breeze. It’s laid-back, luxurious, and effortlessly photogenic.
While our package focuses on the two most intimate and visually stunning locations, the resort also offers two additional ceremony spots:
Conveniently located adjacent to the resort and one of its oceanfront restaurants, Bayview Beach is ideal for couples seeking a close proximity to the action. But a fair warning, this beach is often lively with resort guests and restaurant patrons, which can make it feel less private.
This sweeping oceanfront lawn is perfect for larger groups, offering unobstructed views and plenty of space to celebrate. However, it’s only available for ceremony-only weddings within a 90-day booking window and additional charges apply. Best for couples who don’t mind a little spontaneity.
After the vows have been exchanged and the sun begins to dip low, the Ritz-Carlton O’ahu Turtle Bay invites you to celebrate in style. Whether you’re dreaming of a custom private dinner with champagne and tropical florals in one of the resort’s elegant event spaces, or a relaxed dinner at one of their oceanfront restaurants, your post-ceremony experience can be as grand or as easygoing as you like.
It’s your love. Your day. Your rhythm.
Staying at the Ritz‑Carlton O’ahu Turtle Bay during your wedding is more than convenient; it’s transformative. Our team can help facilitate room blocks so your loved ones are nearby, and connect you with resort staff to curate unforgettable resort experiences. Picture pre‑wedding spa treatments at Nalu Spa, a round on the Arnold Palmer championship golf course, or a horseback ride along the beach before your rehearsal dinner. Your guests might explore cultural bike tours, ocean kayaking, stargazing under expert guidance, or even a Paniolo-themed lu‘au—all on the North Shore.
The Ritz-Carlton O’ahu Turtle Bay isn’t just another resort. It’s a place where the land speaks, where every sunset feels like it was painted just for you, and where the energy of the island is raw and real. With five miles of coastline and a landscape that feels untouched and sacred, the North Shore offers a kind of magic you won’t find anywhere else on Oʻahu.
This is where your love story belongs.
