We see couples come to Hawaii from all over the world for their Oahu beach wedding, but Melissa & Blake are lucky enough to live here! They traveled from the other side of the island to enjoy a dreamy north shore Oahu wedding. Escaping the everyday life and joined by a small group of family, this sweet pair said “I-Do” as the sun began to set at Papailoa Beach. Though their dogs are the reason they met, they left the four-legged family members at home so that they could focus on each other as they enjoyed a Hawaiian-inspired ceremony and magical portraits afterward. They had so much fun on the beach while looking very stylish. Blake kept it cool in his vest and tie, and Melissa’s dress looked perfect in the sea breeze and soft sunset light. As the beach grew darker, we bid farewell to the lovebirds, who were off to enjoy a nice dinner as husband and wife. We hope to see the newlyweds around Oahu, and we wish them all the best for a lifetime of love and happiness!

Special thanks to Karma Hill Photography for the beautiful wedding photos.

Oahu wedding on the beach by Simple Oahu Wedding

On a stunning Hawaiian night, Katherine & Ivan began a new journey together. With her 11 year old son on hand to support them, they enjoyed an Oahu Elopement beside the sparkling sea. As Rev. Kimo Taylor presided over an emotional and heartfelt ceremony, this adorable Maryland duo exchanged vows that promised of forever. Ysan even got in on the fun when his loving family presented him with a lei, a customary practice in the Aloha State. While the dramatic coastline and endless sea anchored their back drop, they looked in one another’s eyes and were declared husband a wife. It was a breathtaking evening for a family most deserving.

We were so honored to be a part of this magical moment and we are grateful to have been chosen. Thank you, Kathy and Ivan, it’s been our pleasure. The entire team at Simple Oahu Wedding wishes you all the love and happiness in the world in the years to come.

Congratulations & Warm Aloha!!!

Oahu Elopement on Yokahama Beach in Oahu, Hawaii

We love morning Oahu weddings, they are simply stunning! What better way to start your day than to wake up and get married to the love of your life! Charlotte and Gino eloped to Hawaii and wanted the beautiful scenery of Oahu’s windward east shore as the backdrop for their vows.  With their toes in the sand, they pledged their love for one another and were surrounded by natures perfect backdrop for their photos. This fun and adventurous couple was a blast to work with. They had some great ideas for their photos when working with their Oahu wedding photographer Karma Hill Photography and were in solid model status with their abilities in front of the camera! Having an Oahu Elopement is so much fun because we get to focus so much on the couple without the distraction of other events. We get to make their ceremony all about them and their love for one another.  Thank you, Charlotte and Gino for choosing us to be a part of your Oahu wedding, and Congrats on a fun and exciting new life together!
