The idea of saying their vows on a tropical island, surrounded by their closest family, seemed like a match made in heaven. Hawaii quickly became their dream honeymoon destination with its breathtaking landscapes and idyllic beaches. When they got engaged, it was only natural for them to fall head over heels for the idea of having their dream wedding in the land of Aloha.
Originally planning to tie the knot in Maui, due to the fires, our wedding coordinators seamlessly shifted their plans to the enchanting island of Oahu. Waikiki Leia, nestled in the heart of Waikiki, provided the perfect backdrop for their intimate and charming ceremony. Their Oahu venue wedding was like a private little oasis for just the two of them and their guests!
















Radiant in their cream gowns and adorned with matching tropical bouquets, Laura and Holly beamed in their newlywed bliss. Every photo captured the overwhelming love and happiness they felt at that moment. Surrounded by close friends and family who had traveled from afar, their celebration was filled with laughter, tears of joy, and heartfelt speeches.
For Laura and Holly, this wedding was not only a celebration of their love but also a testament to their journey together. From meeting at university in Glasgow to buying their first home, their love story has been filled with milestones and adventures. And now, as they embark on their new chapter as wives, Hawaii will forever hold a special place in their hearts!






As you can see, there are many gorgeous spots around this venue for charming newlywed portraits! Each corner has many opportunities for intimate moments like these, from the waterfall to the Bougainvillea archway. It was a private little slice of paradise just for Laura and Holly to bask in the moment’s joy…
Their Oahu venue wedding was everything they could have hoped for and more. It was a celebration of their love journey and the promise of a future filled with happiness and adventure!







To Laura and Holly, we raise our glasses and toast to your love, your dreams, and a lifetime of bliss. Congratulations on finding your forever in each other. May you carry the aloha spirit with you back to the highlands of Scotland! Enjoy your honeymoon in the islands!

When these two lovebirds were planning their wedding, what mattered most was something simple and stress-free. So naturally, Hawaii came to mind thanks to its relaxed, easygoing lifestyle, and Shelby and Jeff just love Oahu! So after stumbling across our company, an Oahu venue wedding felt just right! The couple didn’t want a big fuss; they simply wanted to celebrate their love with their closest family members in a small, intimate setting. Keep scrolling to see more of their beautiful ceremony!









For a bit of backstory on our lovely couple, Shelby is a therapist for autistic kids, while Jeff works in construction. They don’t have kids yet, but they are looking forward to starting a family in the near future! And what better way to start than with a beautiful wedding ceremony in the heart of Waikiki at the Chapel at Waikiki Lea!
The couple exchanged vows in the chapel under the majestic arches, creating a dramatic backdrop for their wedding photos. It was an intimate and family-orientated celebration, exactly what they had hoped for! The candles and lanterns added a romantic touch to the ceremony…










Afterward, we ventured out to the gardens and the serene waterfall for their romantic newlywed portraits. The peaceful waterfall and lush foliage created a magical setting for our new Mr. & Mrs. Welling! In addition, the architectural details around the property added another layer of romance and privacy to their first moments as husband and wife…
As you can see, we just love this venue because it offers both a private tropical setting and the option of a more traditional chapel ceremony. So it’s no wonder Shelby and Jeff chose it for their Oahu venue wedding – it’s the best of both worlds!












We wish Shelby and Jeff all the best as they embark on this exciting journey together as husband and wife! Congratulations to our happy newlyweds – may your love continue to grow stronger every day!

“How are we not sick of each other yet?” said our darling newlyweds, Meghan and Matthew, before their Oahu venue wedding! These two have been head over heels for each other since the day they met! We love a good love story. Meghan knew they were going to be together the day she met him, and from that day forward, they’ve been inseparable ever since! So it was our pleasure to coordinate their intimate and beautiful wedding…keep reading to see some of our favorite moments from their amazing day!









Surrounded by their nearest and dearest, our sweet couple exchanged their vows to the peaceful sound of the waterfall at Waikiki Leia, one of our beautiful new Oahu wedding venue options! Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood in Waikiki, this lovely Oahu wedding venue has so many beautiful photo opportunities! It’s quiet and intimate but also convenient!






How happy they look! Meghan admitted to us that she is a hopeless romantic (we are too) and is constantly reminded by her big-hearted new husband, Matthew, to appreciate the little things and live in the moment – and they absolutely did at their Oahu venue wedding!




After their beautiful ceremony, we whisked our newlyweds away for a few portraits by the chapel! They have that newlywed glow in these photos! Matthew is a firefighter with the softest heart, and Meghan is a nurse, so they think they both work so well together because they see how fragile life is…So, hand in hand, our beautiful newlyweds are ready to live their life to the fullest as husband and wife!












Congratulations, Meghan and Matthew, on your recent nuptials! We couldn’t be happier for you both! May you continue to grow in love in the years ahead! And we have no doubt about that since you’re crazy for each other! Until we meet again,
