Sarah & Anthony traveled from California for their beach wedding in Oahu. Turquoise blue water and gentle sea breezes greeted this beautiful couple and their guests as they arrived to the beach. They even had an ukulele musician playing Hawaiian songs for them!
Waimanalo Beach is a remote location away from the hotels, so the group all rode there together in a party bus. They were all having a great time and we loved being a part of this beach wedding in Oahu!
Sarah arrived separately so that Anthony wouldn’t see her before the ceremony started. Their onsite coordinator from Simple Oahu Wedding helped get everyone in place, and made sure that the bridal reveal was a super special moment. Karma Hill Photography was there to capture it all!
Hawaiian Traditions for a Beach Wedding in Oahu
Reverend Kimo Taylor included some Hawaiian traditions in their ceremony. He used strands of shells and Kukui nuts for a handfasting, led them in a lei exchange, and offered a blessing in Hawaiian. The newlyweds even had their first dance to a Hawaiian song! We loved sharing some of our island’s traditions with everyone at the wedding!
Tropical & Elegant
Sarah wore a tropical flower crown and a dramatic veil for a look that was both elegant and beachy! After the ceremony, the newlyweds took pictures all around Waimanalo Beach. Their portrait time gave them the chance to slow down and enjoy their beautiful surroundings! Karma Hill Photography also made sure to get some special shots that highlighted Sarah’s bridal look.
Eventually the sun went down and it was time to send the happy couple on their way. We hope we to welcome them back to Hawaii before too long. After all, in Hawaii we don’t say goodbye. Instead we say A Hui Hou (until we meet again).
Congratulations Sarah & Anthony! It was such a joy to be a part of your beach wedding in Oahu!
