It was a day to remember forever for our happy newlyweds…keep reading to see more of their beautiful memories from their big day!

Our lovely couple had been planning their Oahu venue wedding for months, but their patience finally paid off! The sun shone brightly on them as they exchanged their “I do’s,” loving glances while vowing to be together forever. Adding to the beauty of the ceremony was the gorgeous tropical arch, Hosanna’s dreamy flower crown, lace gown, and glowing face. There wasn’t a dry eye in sight when Clyde first got a glimpse of his bride; even he couldn’t help but shed a few tears!

Feels Like A Dream

All of their loved ones were overjoyed with happiness for our happy newlyweds, especially since most traveled for their beautiful celebration. There was just something about being surrounded by nature that made it so special for everyone there! But before Hosanna and Clyde went off to celebrate, we captured these first beautiful moments of their newlywed life…

Hosanna and Clyde had been dreaming about this moment since they got engaged! So, it brings us great joy to see this union come together. Their Oahu venue wedding was an absolute dream – a perfect day that was filled with love from every direction from family, friends, and nature itself!

Their Oahu venue wedding photos truly reflect the magic that these two have found in one another! They ooze with romance as they embrace and kiss against the quintessential Hawaiian mountain scenery at Kualoa Ranch. Whether it’s a closeup portrait of their clasped hands or an atmospheric capture of them looking deeply into each other’s eyes, you can feel that strong connection between them in each photograph. We can’t decide which is our favorite!

From all of us at Simple Oahu Wedding, we wish Hosanna and Clyde all the love, joy, and peace in the years ahead! We hope to see you in Hawaii again one day!

Gabriel and Christina recently fulfilled their dreams of saying “I Do” in Hawaii! They chose to have an intimate beachfront Oahu venue wedding at Kualoa Ranch, the perfect tropical, private setting to exchange their vows surrounded by the beauty of nature – as well as a few friends and family members. After all, what could be more romantic? Keep scrolling to see more of their beautiful day!

A Hawaiian Wedding Dream – Oahu Venue Wedding

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. As such, being surrounded by nature has become an integral part of who they are – so it made perfect sense for them to exchange their vows in Hawaii! 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?

We love this location for an Oahu venue wedding because of the privacy and the dramatic and cinematic views of the mountains! This lush scenery makes the most jaw-dropping wedding photos… it’s Hawaii at its finest! And better yet, it’s all for our happy newlyweds to savor and enjoy without the crowds!

Many congratulations to our happy newlyweds, Christina and Gabriel! We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness 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!

Jessica & Andrew’s Oahu Destination Wedding embodied everything we love about small ceremonies. They were relaxed and happy, and we loved getting to know their entire group. With the stunning Ko’olau mountains behind them and a lifetime of love ahead of them, these two sweethearts shared unforgettable vows.

We are so grateful we got to be a part of this gorgeous Destination Wedding in Oahu! Keep scrolling to see some of our favorite moments.

Visions of Hawaii

Jessica & Andrew traveled from Vancouver, Canada, for their Oahu Destination Wedding. Covid had put any vacation plans on hold, and they were waiting to visit Hawaii as soon as possible. Once they got engaged last October, they knew that combining a much-needed vacation and a small wedding would be perfect for them.

They booked our Royal Hawaiian Golf Club Package, which includes everything needed for a small and scenic wedding. We loved working with Jessica & Andrew, from the moment they reached out until we sent them off as newlyweds.

Now our excitement grows as we share some of their stunning Oahu wedding photography!

A Dreamy Wedding Day

We love how Jessica & Andrew were so sweet and in love. They’ve been together for over eight years but still seem like fresh love birds. We know they’ll be able to carry that joy and discovery into their marriage, which will lead to a lifetime of happiness!

Jessica & Andrew decided to say their own vows to each other as part of the ceremony, and it had us all in tears. Thanks to the small group and personalized touches, we really got to know this couple and feel like we were a special part of their day. We can’t stop gushing over how much we love this incredible Oahu Destination wedding.

They had a stunning ceremony and amazing photography, but there was one thing missing: their snuggly fur baby Theodore. He was definitely happy when Jessica & Andrew got home, even if they could have stayed in Hawaii for a few more days!

Enjoying their Oahu Destination Wedding Venue

Any of our weddings at Royal Hawaiian Golf Club include the opportunity to capture photos around the gorgeous property. They have a lush jungle setting, an unbelievable mountain backdrop, and a vast stretch of grass with stunning lighting.

Karma Hill Photography captured all these stunning images, which will surely be framed all over Jessica & Andrew’s house soon!

Congratulations, Jessica & Andrew. We’re so glad we got to be a part of your wedding and can’t wait to welcome you to Hawaii again. Aloha and A Hui Hou!

The day before Jenna and Scott tied the knot was their trash the dress photo session! Kualoa Beach Park was the background for these pictures, and this East Oahu spot created a beautiful scene.

Our lovely couple was smiling radiantly and didn’t hesitate to interact with the environment around them.

Why We Love Their Oahu Venue Wedding

Bohemian, relaxing, and fun are a few words we’d use to describe this venue wedding! Kualoa Secret Island created a dreamy but intimate setting for this event. Then David Asing enhanced the tranquil ambiance by playing soothing melodies on his ukulele. When it was time to begin the ceremony, Kahu Kelehua Kawai delivered an impeccable sermon. Above all, one moment we loved was seeing Jenna and Scott’s son included in the vow exchange! It was such a heartwarming twist to this tradition.

About Our Couple

Jenna and Scott’s story began when they met in college. They were both enrolled in the Zoo and Aquarium Program at their university. Then Scott graduated in the Aquarium Science course, while Jenna completed the Zoo Science program. Currently, Jenna is a zookeeper at the Duke Lemur Center. Scott installs aquariums and takes care of fish! Lastly, our charming couple has a fourteen-year-old son who just started high school!

In 2016, Nicole and Ruobin first visited Hawaii! Although they were here for a Nursing Conference, they immediately fell in love with the island. This trip was when our charming duo decided to have an Oahu destination wedding! Their sunset occasion was full of personality and elegance — perfect for our passionate pair. Keep scrolling to see their special day for yourself.

Kualoa Secret Island was the location for Nicole and Ruobin’s wedding — this venue created a breathtaking scene! We adore this private spot because it’s tranquil, picturesque, and dreamy. Dramatic mountains, lush greenery, and cerulean water created an enchanting background! Then the heavy cloud coverage and soft blue sky enhanced the romantic and intimate ambiance. Above all, you can see how this occasion looks like a tropical fairytale in every shot!

Why We Love Oahu Destination Wedding

Ever since Nicole and Ruobin first visited Oahu, they knew it’d be the perfect place to get married! We adore how this sunset occasion was bohemian, carefree, and fun. The shoreline has beautiful decorations! Standing at the front of the ceremony was a two-post wooden arch from O’ahu Wedding Altars. Then our bride and her bridesmaid’s bouquets are whimsical and elegant — they pair flawlessly with the flower arrangements on the archway!

Our Couple’s Story

Nicole and Ruobin’s story began when they first met at the movies. At the time, they attended different schools but had mutual friends. Ruobin asked Nicole to be his girlfriend after they watched Pearl Harbor on May 27, 2001. Then on New Year’s Day in 2021, Ruobin popped the question! Our groom had a plan with Nicole’s sister and friends for this significant moment. Unfortunately, Nicole hurt her back, so his proposal got derailed!

Congratulations, Nicole and Ruobin! Thank you for sharing your Oahu destination wedding with us! We wish you a future full of love, abundance, and happiness!

Nalina’s Boho Dream Bouquet by Sweet Blossoms Hawaii is so exquisite! The delicate shades of coral and violet contrast beautifully with the deep green foliage. Then the white flowers create an effortless balance of colors in this arrangement!

The Enchanting Destination Wedding in Oahu

Ricky and the thirteen wedding guests were the first to arrive at the beach. Then, right when the sun settled into its golden hour, the ceremony began! First to walk down the aisle were the flower girls, then the ring bearer was next. Finally, Nalina gracefully glided down the shore! Our bride and groom both looked stunning in their classic but chic attire. During Kahu Kelehua Kawai’s sermon, Karma Hill Photography effortlessly captured every moment. Now, our charming couple will always be able to relive this special day.

Wai’alae Beach Park was the location for this wedding! Since this beach is spacious, we held the ceremony on the sandy shore. Surrounding our beautiful couple are lofty palm trees, foamy ocean waves, and vivid greenery. However, we adore the impeccable weather! There was barely any cloud coverage, so the setting sun shined brilliantly on the shore. As this evening progressed, the natural glow in the sky shifted into a spectrum of cool hues!

During the photo session, we took advantage of every scenic landscape. Karma Hill Photography took some photos of this passionate pair in front of the picturesque shoreline and with the vivid foliage! Above all, our favorite thing about these Maui destination wedding portraits is how intimate and romantic they are. In every shot, you can see their blissful glow and radiant smiles! Not to mention, you can tell Nalina and Ricky are relishing these moments in paradise!
