LOVE IN ALL FORMS IS BEAUTIFUL

“elopement” is really just a short-hard term to mean “do what makes you happy”—
and if a bigger or slightly more traditional wedding day is your jam? let’s make your dream happen.

  • honestly, getting married in Hawai’i is not super cheap (the airfare and hotel alone are so expensive!). what makes elopements so affordable is that you usually don’t have to feed guests or rent a venue, both of which are the top two biggest costs in having a wedding. my suggestion is always to write down your & your partner’s top 5 priorities for your wedding day and plan accordingly. there are a lot of ways to get married at all budgets, and I’m here to help you make it happen—reach out and let’s chat!

  • I’ve photographed venues all across the island, and there is truly something for everyone! my specific recommendation would depend on your vibe and guest count, but my top five venues are:

    1. Kaimea Estates
    2. Kualoa Ranch (Jurassic)
    3. Dillingham Ranch
    4. Male’ana Gardens
    5. Waimea Valley

    there are so many more that I love, but let’s chat and figure out what’s best for you.

  • the great news is, we have so much local talent that you don’t have to bring much! from florists to dress designers to paper crafters to calligraphers… all the big and little things are available here, so save the stress of forgetting items and buy it locally! but if you need to ship anything, I am happy to be your official Wedding Warehouse lol. let’s talk about the ways you can save time, money and energy by supporting local! :)
