Aloha Style ~ Polly & John Oahu Destination Wedding

With their 3 month baby boy Gus and loved ones in tow, Polly and John were so excited to get married at an Oahu Destination Wedding! They went full aloha style for their wedding party’s attire, and we thought it was so cute how our groom and his little son matched. I mean just check out how adorable these photos of them all together are! We’re obsessed.

We love how this Oahu Destination Wedding created an intimate yet festive setting for this couple to say, “I do” in paradise. One of our favorite parts of this location is the private boat access. Not only does it make for a memorable experience, but it’s also super fun for wedding portraits! Which is always a plus 🙂 . Thank you, Polly and John, for letting Simple Oahu Wedding be part of such a special day! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!

Oahu Elopements

Sweet Ceremony ~ Trina & Cory’s Oahu Beach Elopement

Participating in this Oahu Beach Elopement was an honor. While Trina and Cory have been a couple for 2.5 years, they’ve known each other much longer! And we just adore the way these two looked at each other. It’s obvious the love they share runs deep, leaving us confident they will have an amazing life together!

We especially love how Pastor John Fuchigami started their Oahu Beach Elopement off by playing the ukulele. He then offered a koa bowl and ti leaf blessing to make the ceremony even sweeter for them! One thing’s for sure, this is a day neither of them will ever forget and we are so glad we could be part of it. Thank you, Trina and Cory, for trusting Simple Oahu Wedding to help plan such a special occasion. We wish you every happiness on the journey ahead as husband and wife. Congratulations and Warm Aloha!

The Simpler the Better ~ Heather & David’s Oahu Destination Wedding

When planning an Oahu Destination Wedding and everything that goes into it, our philosophy is obviously the simpler the better! So we think it’s great that Heather and David chose to not only have their ceremony and reception at Turtle Bay Resort, but to also stay there as well. It made things super easy on their wedding day, and while visiting Hawaii!

Plus it was a beautiful setting for their Oahu Destination Wedding. We especially love this little path that led down to a private beach surrounded by greenery, lava rocks, and of course the ocean! I mean talk about a paradise location! Thank you, Heather and David, for including Simple Oahu Wedding on such a special occasion. We are so happy for you both and wish you all the best on the journey ahead! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!

Oahu Beach Weddings

Locals in Love ~ Yuka & Tim’s Oahu Beach Wedding

After meeting while Yuka was on vacation here 6 years ago, these two couldn’t imagine a better way to get married than at an Oahu Beach Wedding! And since they both live here now, this couple only had to travel from Waikiki for their ceremony. We love that they have made Hawaii their home and we are so excited for them to start the next chapter of their lives together as husband and wife!

Who would have thought that an outing at a local Waikiki bar called Moose McGillycuddy’s aka Mooses, would turn into meeting the love of your life? It might sound like an unlikely place to find true love but we are so glad they did! And that we got to celebrate with them at their Oahu Beach Wedding. Thank you, Yuka and Tim, for choosing Simple Oahu Wedding to help plan all your dreams come true! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!

The Girl Next Door ~ Samantha & Nathan’s Oahu Elopement

Samantha and Nathan have known each other since childhood due to being neighbors their whole life! So being part of their Oahu Elopement was truly special. A real story of the girl next door, how cute is that?! And we love how excited they both are for the journey ahead as husband and wife!

Prior to their ceremony beginning our bride shared a first look moment with her dad just before he walked her down the aisle. It was an incredibly touching experience for them both and we can’t get over the sweet hug they shared! An Oahu Elopement that includes just family members always makes for a memorable occasion ad we are so glad we got to be part it. Thank you, Samantha and Nathan, for trusting Simple Oahu Wedding to help plan the wedding of your dreams. We hope you are both enjoying our sister island of Maui for your honeymoon! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!

A Change of Scenery ~ Mica & Thomas’ Oahu Beach Wedding

Mica and Thomas’ first time to the island was for their Oahu Beach Wedding! And we love that they decided to get married somewhere they’d never been before! Coming from New Mexico, it was definitely a change of scenery for them. So we’re sure this is a trip and occasion they will never forget!

After meeting online 2 years ago and clicking right away, this bride and groom were more than ready to say “I do” at their Oahu Beach Wedding. We especially love that they were able to include their son, Shaden, in the festivities! Plus aren’t these portraits of them all together the absolute sweetest? Our newlyweds then ended their evening with a delicious dinner at Hard Rock Cafe. The perfect ending to an already perfect day! Thank you, Mica and Thomas, for letting Simple Oahu Wedding celebrate with you at the start of this new journey as husband and wife! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!

An Added Touch ~ Cheryl & Yishi’s Oahu Venue Wedding

Cheryl and Yishi’s Oahu Venue Wedding took place on a peaceful morning at Paradise Cove’s grassy lawn setting overlooking the ocean. Surrounded by blue sky, palm trees, and loved ones this couple was more than ready to get married! And we are so happy we could be part of their very special day.

We especially love that this bride and groom decided to include flower petals at their Oahu Venue Wedding for an extra added touch. Not only did they make for beautiful aisle decor, but they also looked incredible in their wedding photos. This shot of Cheryl and Yishi kissing with the petals being tossed over them is one of our very favorites. And how perfect is it that they were able to include their wedding colors of white and light pink in this way as well?!

After taking beautiful portraits with our sister company, our newlyweds headed for a celebratory dinner at Signature Steakhouse. What a fun and delicious way to end such a special occasion! Thank you, Cheryl and Yishi, for asking Simple Oahu Wedding to help plan the wedding day of your dreams! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!
