“He knows how much I love this island, and he has never been, so it was only right we have an Oahu elopement,” Marielle told us before her big day! She has been many times, but since Jonathan has never been, she was thrilled to show him the island and celebrate their wedding with their closest friends and family! Let’s re-live their beautiful day with them through our favorite highlights…

Our delightful couple met on a dating app in 2020 and hit it off instantly…it was pretty unexpected, but it was the best outcome – it was meant to be! These two love the water and the beach. They joke about getting a small cottage by the beach and escaping it all! But an Oahu elopement isn’t too bad either, we think! And they couldn’t have asked for a better day…

And to the cheers of their friends and family, they said, “I do!” Our beautiful newlyweds radiate happiness and love in these photos, don’t you agree?

Let’s talk about this lighting for a minute… how stunning are these first intimate portraits as newlyweds? The light is so soft and golden, illuminating the tropical scenery…

This scenic location is Papailoa Beach, and it offers the privacy and natural beauty that our beautiful couple dreamed of for their Oahu elopement!

Marielle looks so radiant! We love her beachy yet elegant off-the-shoulder dress – it was perfect for a beach wedding!

As the sun lowered in the sky, these two shared many laughs together…it was like a dream that they didn’t want to end!

We wish Marielle and Jonathon all the love, happiness, and peace in the years ahead! We can’t wait to see you in Hawaii one day again! Sending you lots of aloha…

These lovely brides have a very sweet engagement story! After dating for 11 years, Alaina and Katherine’s Oahu elopement was fun, elegant, and full of love! Their beautiful day was a blissful dream that melted our hearts, too…keep reading to see more highlights of their incredible day!

And for our love birds, their story began at the University of New Mexico, where Alaina currently works! She has been there for 11 years – just as long as they have been dating! What’s even more romantic is that Katharine proposed to Alaina on November 11, 2020, two years after their Oahu elopement!

They had just closed on a house and were supposed to get the keys to it on that very day, but unfortunately, they weren’t ready. But Katherine took Alaina to the backyard, popped down on one knee, and said, “I know we do not have the keys to the house, but you have the key to my heart! Will you marry me?” Alaina said yes, of course!

A Hawaii Dream

Their special day was very endearing and beautiful, as you can see! They are so happy in these photos, just the two of them, and more in love than ever! Their intimate Oahu elopement was on the grassy lawn at Kualoa Regional Park, with the most epic backdrops of the mountains in the distance! With a sandy beach right in front of the grassy lawn, it’s truly the best of both worlds!

Our beautiful brides do love a bit of fun! They are known as the life of the party in their friends’ circle, and you can see why! So we love this fun surprise detail!

After a few romantic portraits with the mountains in the distance, we wandered down to the beach with our beautiful brides! They looked radiant together with their tropical bouquets! Their photos’ lighting was so soft and ethereal….like a painting!

Congratulations to Alaina and Katherine! May you have many more happy years together with your son and pup! We hope to see you again soon!

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!

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!

This romantic getaway was Kayla and John’s first time exploring Hawaii together! Although Kayla has been to the island before, John hadn’t. After learning this, we knew their Oahu elopement and vacation would be full of remarkable moments! Not to mention, the day they tied the knot was flawless. The weather was mystical, the beach was dreamy, and our delightful duo was full of bliss! Keep scrolling to experience this sunset affair for yourself.

Kayla and John arrived at the Kualoa Beach Park together. However, this didn’t stop our breathtaking bride from making a grand entrance! As Kayla glided down the lush lawn, Kahu Lawrence Kidder effortlessly played the ukulele. While Kayla walked down the shore, we made sure to look over at John. Our handsome groom had a vibrant smile on his face — we know he’ll savor this moment forever!

The Serene Oahu Elopement

When Kayla was a child, her father was stationed in Hawaii! Our bride lived on the island for three years and attended Solomon Elementary from Kindergarten to Second Grade. Since Kayla enjoyed calling this destination home, she knew it would be the perfect place to get married! Now, she and John will explore and experience Oahu together. In addition, these exquisite portraits by Karma Hill Photography are a collection of memories! We know they’ll remind our passionate pair of their special day and remarkable adventures.

Our Couple’s Story

Kayla and John’s story began when they met in high school. However, they lost touch then but reconnected three years ago on social media! When the time was right, John proposed to Kayla on May 23, 2021. He popped the question at the exact location they had their first date! Then they tied the knot one year later, on May 23, 2022. The number twenty-three is Kayla’s favorite, so the day our radiant newlyweds got engaged and married is meaningful to them!

Currently, John is a Senior Software Engineer. Our charming pair works from home on their twenty-two-acre farm! They also are parents to two pit bull puppies, who they love dearly and wish they could’ve brought to their Oahu elopement!

Congratulations, Kayla and John! Thank you for sharing this intimate moment with us. We wish you a future full of quality time together and exciting renovations on your farmhouse!

Olivia and Gama have never been to Hawaii before. However, after seeing all the beautiful places on this island, they knew they should elope in Oahu! This ceremony is elegant, dreamy, and romantic.

Currently, Olivia and Gama have been together for five years. Not to mention, they recently purchased their first home! 

Since they first started dating, Olivia and Gama have always wanted to visit the Aloha State. They’re also huge fans of Hawaii 5-O! When it was time for them to get married, they knew eloping in Oahu would be perfect for them!

Congratulations, Olivia and Gama! Thank you for letting us be part of your lovely wedding day. We wish you a future full of outdoor adventures with your pitbull, Izzy!
