On sandy shores, as waves slowly rolled in and the sun quietly set, Rosina & Richard pledged to spend the rest of their life together. It was a gorgeous Oahu Elopement — the couple is beautiful inside and out, and the scenery was breathtaking. But it was their love that made the day truly unforgettable.

Now their wedding is a core memory and a symbol of their commitment. And we’re so excited to share these photos so they can relive the day again and again!

About The Couple

Rosina & Richard met early during the Covid pandemic. They are both traveling nurses who found themselves working at the same location. At first they could only see each other’s eyes, since they stayed masked up at work. But there was a connection there, and when Rosina struck up conversation, a romance quickly blossomed.

Since then, they’ve traveled together to their different nursing assignments around the country. They’re a sweet and loving couple who simply wants a life together. And their Oahu Elopement was a chance to affirm their love and step into a new journey together.

A Meaningful Date for an Oahu Elopement

Richard & Rosina are proud parents to four dogs, so their house is nonstop tail wagging and constant treats. Sadly, they had to say goodbye to their little Chihuahua Lilly last summer on June 30, a tragedy that struck Rosina & Richard with grief but also brought them closer together.

To honor Lilly and the way she blessed their life, they chose June 30 as their wedding date. Now she lives on in this incredible memory, and they get to bring some joy to a date once marked by loss.

We could feel Lilly’s presence at this Oahu Elopement, along with the spirit of all Rosina & Richard’s loved ones. Keep scrolling to see how dreamy their special day was!

Congratulations, Rosina & Richard! We wish you nothing but the best and hope your travels bring you back to Hawaii soon!

It was such a dreamy scene. Most of all, it was the perfect place for this lovely pair to tie the knot!

Why They Had An Oahu Venue Wedding

Ribekah and Wyatt decided to get married in Oahu because they have family here! Although Ribekah has visited Hawaii before, Wyatt has not. This getaway was notable for our passionate pair because they had new experiences together! Not only were they tying the knot, but they were also exploring this island together for the first time!

Cindy and Chao knew they wanted to spend their honeymoon in Hawaii! However, they couldn’t decide which island would be best for them to tie the knot. After researching, they chose to have an Oahu destination wedding! They liked how this place has stunning city vibes and breathtaking natural scenery. Above all, you’ll fall in love with how charming this sunset affair is, so keep scrolling to see it for yourself.

Wai’alae Beach Park was the location for this wedding, and this spot provided us with beautiful scenery. The lofty palm trees, beige sand, and vivid greenery created an enchanting backdrop. Then enhancing the dreamy ambiance was the sun’s soft glow as it set on the horizon!

Why We Love Their Oahu Destination Wedding

Simple and relaxed are two words we’d use to describe this event! Chao and the seventeen guests were the first to arrive. Then, when she was ready, Cindy made her grand entrance! Once it was time to begin the ceremony, Kahu Dennis Chong-Imamura performed a heartwarming sermon. During his speech, Karma Hill Photography captured every look of adoration and monumental moment between our passionate pair! 

Lastly, we adore how sophisticated and classic Cindy and Chao dressed. Cindy is a gorgeous bride! Her hair and makeup are glamorous, while her lace gown is chic. Then Chao’s khaki suit is beachy but traditional. Most importantly, his attire complements Cindy’s looks perfectly!

Our Couple’s Story

Cindy and Chao’s story began when they met at a concert through mutual mates. Our delightful duo bonded over food! One year into their friendship, they began dating. Then, on January 26, 2020, Chao proposed to Cindy in Key West, Florida. He rented a sailboat and popped the question while the sun was setting. Cindy says it was magical! 

This adventurous duo is a pair of foodies! One of the reasons they decided to have an Oahu destination wedding was the variety of cuisine options. We hope you guys got a delicious taste of the island!

Congratulations, Cindy and Chao! Thank you for letting us be part of your tranquil wedding. We wish you a future full of delicious food and fun travels!

Keith and the three wedding guests were the first to arrive at the ceremony location. Our groom looked charming in his classic navy blue suit and white flower boutonniere. We know this deep tone will pair lovely with the rich green shades in his maile lei! Then, when the time was right, Janice walked down the shore. Our bride looked stunning in her chic lace gown and elegant styling by Reveal Hair & Makeup! Above all, you could tell our beautiful couple felt the same way. The moment they saw one another, they both had affectionate smiles on their faces.

The Location For Their Beach Wedding in Hawaii

Kualoa Beach Park set the scene for this wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for a better backdrop! We like this East Oahu spot because it’s full of exquisite landscapes. On one side, you have the picturesque sandy beach. Then, on the other, you’ll see the dramatic mountains and vivid greenery. Since there was heavy cloud coverage, the sky created a magical ambiance for this event. 

After our beautiful couple became husband and wife, Karma Hill Photography took some couples shots! Toward the end of Kimo Taylor’s sermon, the sun’s rays began to shine on the shore. This extra brilliance made every portrait look more dreamy! Not to mention, in every picture, you can see this stunning duo’s radiant newlywed glow. You can tell they’re enjoying their first moments as a married couple in paradise! Most importantly, we know they’ll never forget their Oahu beach wedding with these photos.

All it took was one trip to Hawaii for Erin and Erich to know they wanted to have an Oahu vow renewal! Our lovely couple exchanged rings on the shores of Papa’iloa Beach as the sun began to set above them. It was a truly magical ceremony to witness! Continue scrolling to experience this event for yourself.

Erin and Erich wanted their renewal to be simple, personal, and about their beautiful family. Our passionate couple’s ceremony was perfect for them! With only their ten-year-old son in attendance, this event was the definition of intimate! Ellsworth Simeona was the officiant, and he delivered a heartfelt sermon. Then Rodney Bejer played to the mood on his ukulele during the dances. Our gorgeous bride danced with her son first, then her handsome groom second!

The Romantic Oahu Vow Renewal

Papa’iloa Beach created a dreamy scene for this renewal! Ivory sand, striking lava rocks, and foamy sapphire waves decorated the background beautifully. Surrounding this North Shore spot are breathtaking landscapes; the stunning mountains and rich greenery make sensational backdrops! Our charming couple couldn’t have asked for better weather! There was light cloud coverage in the sky, and the sunset was vibrant.

Our Couple’s Story

Erin and Erich first met at work in 2007, but they didn’t instantly hit it off. It wasn’t until a business trip later the same year when they fell for each other. In 2009, they got married for the first time. Currently, Erin and Erich are IT engineers. Our delightful couple is involved in their local fitness industry. They teach different workout classes and plan to open a studio in 2022! Most importantly, they have a ten-year-son who is an absolute riot!

Our elegant couple decided to have an Oahu vow renewal because their wedding was not about them. Although it was a fun night, it was about what everyone else wanted. They wanted to make this sunset event about Erin, Erich, and their sweet boy! 

Congratulations, Erin and Erich! Thank you for letting us be part of your intimate vow renewal. We wish you all the best with your fitness studio and hope your future is full of loving memories!
