Big Island Elopement

Some love stories start with a spark. Beau and Milasia’s began with a plate of dinner and a dash of destiny. They met in Oklahoma while Beau was a flight instructor in Texas. Milasia was waitressing, and Beau walked in, smiled, and completely swept her off her feet. Fast forward through countless flights, family visits, and shared adventures, and these two found themselves saying “I do” on the shores of the Big Island, where their story had already written one of its most meaningful chapters.

Their Big Island elopement at Old Kona Airport Beach wasn’t just beautiful, it was deeply personal. Three years earlier, on a family trip to Kona, Beau had given Milasia a promise ring right on that very beach. To return to the same stretch of sand, surrounded by the sound of waves and the people they love, made their vows even more significant. Curious to see more of their beautiful day? Keep reading to see more!

Meant To Be

As airline professionals, Beau a loadmaster, and Milasia, in customer service, their lives are built around travel and connection. So it only made sense that their love story spanned states, miles, and time zones before landing in Hawaii, the place where everything seemed to come full circle.

The day itself was a dream: a soft ocean breeze, a bright blue sky, and a calm that felt like forever. They looked so happy, two best friends promising forever in the place where it all began.

The Perfect Setting

Beau and Milasia’s Big Island elopement was everything a couple could dream of: bright, beautiful, and overflowing with love. The sun shimmered off the waves, the breeze carried laughter across the sand, and every moment felt like something out of a storybook. Their ceremony couldn’t have been more perfect. It was the very place where Beau had once given Milasia a promise ring, and now, they were returning to that same spot to make their forever official.

As the ocean sparkled behind them, they looked completely at ease, joyful, grounded, and deeply connected. The setting was stunning: blue skies stretching endlessly above, the gentle rhythm of waves, and bright golden light wrapping around them. It was the perfect day for a Hawaii beach wedding, a day that seemed touched by a little magic.

Our photography captured it all, the laughter, the tender glances, and the little in-between moments that tell the story of who they are together. Every image glowed with color: the turquoise water, the soft tans of the sand, the tropical palms framing the beach. The result was a gallery that feels alive, vibrant, emotional, and full of movement. And the classic lava rocks of the Big Island made it feel even more picturesque!

Congratulations, Beau and Milasia! Your day was as radiant as your love, and your photos capture that joy perfectly. Here’s to all the adventures ahead, together, hand in hand, just as it began!

There are love stories that slowly unfold, and then there are ones like Jeremy and Connie’s Big Island elopement. A story where two people meet (on Hinge, thank you very much), immediately know, and jump all in with their hearts wide open.

Jeremy, a mental health therapist, and Connie, a personal fitness trainer, knew exactly what they wanted. After a year of hiking, traveling, and chasing live music together (Nashville concerts included), Jeremy proposed on Connie’s birthday trip in October with a ring, a question, and the most iconic response ever: “Hell yeah!”

When it came to their wedding, they didn’t want the hoopla. Just love. Just meaning. And just them. Kukio Beach on the Big Island, where Jeremy once lived and they had already fallen in love with during a December trip became their perfect place to say “I do.”

And oh, it was beautiful. Intimate, simple, and full of aloha spirit. Their ceremony included traditional Hawaiian elements, ocean breezes, and so much pure joy. Connie looked radiant in her beautiful gown, tropical bouquet in hand, and smile that could rival the sun. Jeremy? Calm, centered, and beaming.

Their photography captured every glance, every laugh, and every breathtaking view. From lush greenery to glowing sand to sunset portraits that looked straight out of a romance film, it was effortlessly elegant. The light, the colors, the expressions, every photo feels like a love letter to new beginnings.

This wasn’t just a wedding. It was a celebration of second chances, of finding your person when you least expect it, and building something real, together, and on their own terms.

Jeremy and Connie, thank you for letting us witness your chapter one. Aloha, lovebirds.

Let’s talk about elopements, the quiet ones, the intentional ones, the kind where no one is stress-sweating over seating charts or folding napkins into complicated origami. The kind where it’s just two people, the ocean, their vows, and a feeling so peaceful it practically hums in the air. That was exactly the energy of Rose and Geovani’s Big Island elopement, and honestly? We’re still floating in the calm glow of it.

Rose and Geovani met in 2022 at a mutual friend’s birthday party in Elk Grove, California. The spark? Immediate. The connection? Effortless. Geovani later surprised Rose at one of her artisan jewelry pop-up events, stayed the whole time, helped her pack up, then asked her to dinner. So sweet right? Fast forward to a riverside gazebo proposal during a snowy family trip to Mt. Shasta, and their love story continued to unfold like something out of a novel you don’t want to put down.

Both self-made and deeply grounded in their wellness-driven, purpose-filled lives, Rose is a Reiki and holistic therapist (and jewelry alchemist), while Geovani is a fitness coach—their days are full of movement, intention, and meaning. They balance each other perfectly: she’s a meditation-loving night owl, he’s an early-rising gym enthusiast. Together, they parent two beautiful children, Dre and Kailani, and share a home with their very well-loved cat, Nami.

When it came time to plan a wedding, there was no hesitation. A traditional event just didn’t align with their rhythm. They were already planning a family trip to the Big Island, and somewhere in the beautiful chaos of family logistics and packing toddler snacks, Geovani asked, “Should we elope while we’re there?” Rose said yes without skipping a beat!

Moments Like This

It all came together at Kukio Beach, a quiet, breathtaking stretch of coastline where the ocean meets lava rock and the sky opens up in that Big Island kind of way. There were no crowds, no elaborate timelines, no distractions. Just the two of them, sharing vows that carried the weight of presence, intention, and deep love. It was peaceful, spiritual, and symbolic in every way that mattered.

For Rose, Hawai‘i is already home to family and ancestral roots. Her father was born and raised in Kona, and her connection to the islands runs deep. It made perfect sense to begin this new chapter in a place where the sea has always spoken to her. Their daughter’s name, Kailani, meaning “heavenly sea,” felt like a poetic full-circle moment, tying generations and hearts together in the most meaningful way.

As the sun slipped lower in the sky, casting golden light across the sand, we captured images that reflected exactly who they are: grounded, radiant, and completely aligned. Their elopement wasn’t about doing less, it was about focusing more on what truly mattered. And that’s where the magic lives.

And the photos? Absolutely stunning. Rose and Geovani’s elopement portraits feel like a love letter to Hawai‘i itself, bathed in golden light, filled with joy, and kissed by ocean breeze. Everything aligned in that quietly magical way only the Big Island can offer. The waves rolled gently in the background, the lava rocks added depth and texture, and the sky shifted into the softest shades of gold and peach as the sun set behind them.

It was as if the island was blessing every frame.

You can feel the warmth in the images—not just from the sunlight, but from the deep connection between them. The way they looked at each other, completely present. The peace in their body language. It was Hawai‘i in every sense, earth, sea, sky, and heart, all captured in portraits that reflect their calm, intentional, deeply loving energy.

Congratulations, Rose and Geovani. Your elopement was everything a wedding should be, intentional, heartfelt, and overflowing with love.

Sometimes, love stories feel like they were pulled straight from the pages of a novel—the kind with dog-eared corners, a little sun on the cover, and a message in a bottle. Christian and Jasmin’s is exactly that kind of story and perfectly describes their Big Island beach wedding.

They met in 2010 at a club in Zurich (very movie meet-cute, right?), and after just a few dates, they both just knew. Fast-forward to the summer of 2024: they’re hiking in the Black Forest. Mandy the Parson Russell Terrier trotting alongside them like the loyal sidekick she is. At a quiet lake, Christian casually pulls out a message in a bottle. Yes, an actual bottle—containing a love letter to Jasmin. One heartfelt read later, he’s down on one knee. Cue all the swooning!

For their wedding, they chose something that reflected their love perfectly—intimate, meaningful, and just for them. Kukio Beach on the Big Island delivered exactly that. Though Jasmin had visited Oahu years ago, this was both of their first time on the Big Island—and it felt like it was waiting just for them.

The beach was soft and golden, the ocean calm and sparkling, and for a few magical hours, it felt like they had the entire world to themselves. No distractions, no pressure. Just two people who’ve loved each other for 14 years, finally saying “yes” to forever. Their Big Island beach wedding was everything they dreamed of and more.

They laughed, they held hands, they kissed like it was the beginning (because it was), and made memories that will live in their hearts—and photo frames—for the rest of their lives. Just the two of them. Congrats, you two!

So, you’re thinking about eloping. Maybe you don’t want the stress of a big wedding. Maybe the thought of a seating chart gives you actual nightmares! Or maybe you and your partner are just really into the idea of an ultra-luxurious, stress-free, oceanfront ceremony where the hardest decision you have to make is which cocktail to toast with after saying “I do.”

Whatever your reason, let’s talk about Hawaii. More specifically, the Four Seasons Hualalai on the Big Island—which, fun fact, was just named the #1 Hotel in the United States by U.S. News & World Report. No big deal. Just the most stunning, romantic, and ridiculously gorgeous resort on the planet. The kind of place where you half-expect a movie star to casually sip espresso next to you at breakfast. And now, you can get married there with our brand-new luxury elopement package for up to 12 guests.

Why This is The Hawaii Elopement Package of Your Dreams

First things first: The ceremony for your Hawaii elopement. You and your partner will exchange vows right on the oceanfront, with waves crashing in the background like a perfectly timed soundtrack to your love story. A beautifully crafted wooden arch with tropical florals will frame the moment, and you can choose between elegant chairs or rustic wood benches for the ultimate intimate setting. Also included? A two-hour photography session with Karma Hill Photography, an award-winning Hawaii photography company. Because, let’s be honest, if there aren’t stunning, frame-worthy photos, did it even happen? Their team will capture every windswept, sun-drenched, “oh my god, we actually did this” moment, giving you breathtaking images to relive your wedding day forever.

Because Planning Should be Easy (and Fun, Actually)

Unlike a big wedding (which, let’s be real, can feel like a full-time job), this experience is seamless. We provide a day of ceremony coordinator to make sure every detail is handled. They’ll even assist you with booking your on-property marriage license appointment, so all you have to do is show up and get legally hitched at your Hawaii elopement.

Because You Deserve VIP Treatment

Eloping at the Four Seasons Hualalai doesn’t just mean saying “I do” in paradise. It means getting the full five-star experience, which includes:

✅ A golf cart for one hour of sunset photos (because if you’re eloping in Hawaii, you must have sunset photos—it’s basically a rule)

✅ Steaming & pressing of your wedding attire (because wrinkles belong in history books, not on wedding dresses)

✅ Luxury SUV transfers to and from Kona International Airport (so you roll in like the VIPs you are)

✅ A “Surprise & Delight” on your wedding night (We won’t tell you what it is, but trust us—it’s good.)

And the Celebration Doesn’t Stop at “I Do”

The magic doesn’t end when the ceremony does. Whether you want an intimate dinner for two or a celebration with your closest friends and family (up to 12 guests), Four Seasons Hualalai offers incredible options after your Hawaii elopement:

✨ **A romantic oceanfront dinner at Ulu Restaurant ** – Imagine toasting to your love under the stars with a gourmet meal, waves softly crashing in the background. The perfect way to start your new chapter together.

✨ A private beachfront dinner for up to 12 guests – If you’re bringing your inner circle, you can enjoy an exclusive, oceanfront dining experience. Think candlelit tables, personalized menus, and a setting so magical it feels straight out of a movie.

✨ Luxury resort dining options – If you’d rather keep it spontaneous, the resort boasts some of the most acclaimed dining experiences in Hawaii, featuring fresh, locally sourced cuisine.

Oh, and You Get a Special Resort Deal

Here’s the deal: To book this package, you’ll need to stay at the resort for at least two nights. But that’s actually a perk because you’ll get 20% off the best available rate at the time of booking. More time to enjoy the pools, spa, and world-class dining? Yes, please.

Why You Should Just Do It Already

Look, if you’ve been dreaming of an intimate, wildly romantic, no-stress wedding in one of the most beautiful places in the world, this is your sign. The Four Seasons Hualalai is truly next-level—think lava rock pools, private beaches, and the kind of sunsets that make people emotional.

So, go ahead. Elope. Do it in style. And let us handle the rest.

Jenny and Carson’s Big Island elopement was nothing short of romantic! Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Anaehoʻomalu Bay, their intimate ceremony was a true celebration of love and connection. As the sun began to dip, casting a warm, blushy-pink glow across the sky, Jenny and Carson said “I do” by the shore, surrounded by nothing but the sound of the waves and the most perfect light.

It was truly an experience to savor. Every moment was steeped in beauty and emotion. Jenny looked absolutely radiant in her lace dress, and Carson was the picture of dashing elegance. Together, they exuded joy and love, and their happiness was contagious to everyone around them. The couple had the best time, soaking in each precious second of their special day!

A Modern Romance

Jenny and Carson’s love story began in the most modern way—on Hinge! Their first conversation was an instant connection, sparked by their shared love for Harry Potter and dogs (both mentioned in Jenny’s profile). This lighthearted exchange quickly led to a coffee date, where they found even more to talk about. Just three hours later, they were already planning their next outing. What started as a simple dinner date soon turned into an unforgettable evening. After enjoying a delicious meal, they took a stroll through downtown, eventually arriving at a local park nestled in the heart of the city. There, standing by the river, they shared their first kiss—a moment that would forever mark the beginning of something beautiful.

Fast forward 11 months to Jenny’s birthday. Carson, ever the romantic, decided to recreate that magical second date. They returned to the same restaurant and retraced the steps of their first date, walking to the very spot by the river where they had shared that unforgettable kiss. But this time, there were roses waiting. With the same sense of magic in the air, Carson got down on one knee and proposed, turning that perfect moment into the start of their next great adventure together…

What made it even more incredible was how simple and intimate the day was. With an all-in-one package, they didn’t have to worry about the stress of organizing each detail. The photography, which was a major draw for the couple, was truly stunning, capturing the love and warmth they shared in each frame. It was as if time slowed down, allowing them to just enjoy the moment—no distractions, no rush…

This elopement was everything Jenny and Carson dreamed of and more. It was a beautiful, personal, and special day that they will remember forever. A new adventure on the Big Island was the perfect way to begin their next chapter together, and we couldn’t be happier for them. Congratulations, Jenny and Carson! You two are a perfect match, and your day was as lovely as you are!

Here’s the thing about love: sometimes it doesn’t need the fanfare, the elaborate décor, or a long guest list. Sometimes, love is just two people standing by the shore, hand in hand, promising forever—and that’s exactly what Jesse and Michelle’s Big Island elopement was all about. No frills, no fluff. Just the two of them, pure and simple, with the breathtaking backdrop of Puako Beach.

Michelle looked stunning as she made her entrance, barefoot and radiant, walking toward Jesse with the ocean breeze carrying every step. You could feel the calm, the love, the quiet magic in the air. When she reached him by the shore, it was like the world paused for a moment—just them and the sound of the waves.

Their ceremony was sweet and understated, yet incredibly meaningful. Incorporating Hawaiian traditions into their vows added a special touch, grounding the experience in the beauty of the islands and the deep love they share. As they exchanged “I dos,” they looked so happy it could melt even the most cynical of hearts. Seriously, someone cue the romantic soundtrack because this was a movie moment!

And then there was the sunset. Oh, the sunset. It stretched across the sky, wrapping their newlywed moments in golden light and pastel hues. They soaked it all in, just the two of them, savoring every second—no distractions, no rush, just pure joy!

Jesse and Michelle’s elopement was a beautiful reminder that sometimes the most powerful moments in life are the simplest. Congratulations, you two! Wishing you a lifetime of sunsets as magical as the one that started your forever!

Elaine and Silvano’s Big Island elopement was truly a celebration of love, laughter, and baseball! These two initially set a rule never to date anyone at work, but love had other plans. After meeting on the job, they shared an instant connection over their favorite sport, baseball, and a mutual love for the San Francisco Giants. Their first date at a Giants game sparked a delightful journey across the country, visiting 17 out of 30 Major League Baseball parks. The ultimate goal? To pitch a perfect game by visiting all 30!

Silvano’s creative proposal at Fenway Park, one of baseball’s most iconic venues, was a grand slam. With Elaine in awe of the historic ballpark, Silvano seized the moment. As they stood atop the Green Monster, he popped the question, leaving Elaine momentarily speechless before she enthusiastically said yes.

Elaine, who immigrated from Malaysia as a toddler and grew up in Northern California, has dedicated her life to nursing. She has a compassionate heart and a love for travel, which she shares with Silvano, a California native and devoted family man. Silvano’s caregiving nature led him to a career helping others, inspired by his experiences caring for family members. So they were overjoyed that their nearest and dearest could be there to celebrate their love!

The Best Day

Their wedding at ʻAnaehoʻomalu Beach was a beautiful fusion of their new journey and the rich Hawaiian culture they adore. Surrounded by friends and family, Elaine and Silvano exchanged vows under a stunning Hawaiian sky, with traditional elements weaving through the ceremony. The happiness radiating from the couple was as vibrant as the island’s famous sunsets, which provided a breathtaking backdrop for their newlywed portraits too!

Elaine and Silvano’s special day was filled with joy, love, and an incredible atmosphere that only Hawaii can provide. Congratulations to the happy couple as they step up to the plate for this new chapter in their lives! May your innings together be filled with love and adventure! Aloha!

Aloha! We are so happy you have found us! We are beyond excited to launch our newest brand in our lineup of simple, beautiful, and high-quality wedding planning brands across the state of Hawaii, Simple Hawaii Wedding.

Are you considering a small destination wedding in Hawaii? If so, GREAT CHOICE, you have come to the right place for planning a breathtaking intimate wedding in Hawaii!

Why We Love Intimate Weddings

A Simple Hawaii Wedding allows you to truly focus on what’s important: your love and commitment to each other. With a smaller guest list (or no guest list), you can spend more quality time with your loved ones and create meaningful memories that will last a lifetime. Fewer people at your wedding means you can focus on the relationships you hold dearest (sorry work friends). By choosing a small destination wedding in Hawaii with Simple Hawaii Wedding, you’re prioritizing your relationship with your partner and creating a special experience for your closest family and friends.

Our Story

Our founder, Karma Hill, was already a prominent figure in the wedding industry as a photographer when she recognized a need in the Maui wedding market for a brand offering a simple planning experience for couples booking a destination wedding from afar, paired with high-quality vendors and a professional team of planners.

Karma witnessed numerous planning brands adopting a “budget” approach when it came to small weddings. These brands resorted to lower-cost vendors, limited their options to only beach locations or free alternatives, and compromised on the elements that contribute to a beautiful and unique wedding experience. She recognized a sizable group of couples desiring a simple, well-planned wedding offering with superior location choices, the highest quality floral arrangements, photography, customer service, and overall experience.

The Evolution

Karma took this premium quality wedding concept and created Simple Maui Wedding. After planning over 1000 weddings on Maui, Karma, and her team knew the service they offered on Maui would benefit other Hawaiian Islands as well. In 2017, Simple Oahu Wedding was launched and has since offered the same simple planning experience for our Oahu-bound couples.

When it came time to choose the next island to expand this concept to, the Big Island was an obvious choice! With its amazing weather on the Kona/Kohala coast, incredible venue options, beautiful beaches, and amazingly talented wedding vendors it was a natural fit.

What Do We Offer?

We offer a planning experience that is SIMPLE! You are likely planning your wedding from thousands of miles and perhaps a few time zones away. We want to make your planning experience FUN and stress-free. By leaving the details to us, you can focus on enjoying your engagement and getting excited about your upcoming wedding and honeymoon in Hawaii!

Who Are We Best For?

We are experts in crafting intimate Hawaii wedding packages designed for up to 50 guests. We firmly believe smaller weddings create the ultimate wedding experience, especially when it comes to destination weddings. Weddings that are too large expand into a family reunion scenario where everyone vies for your attention, detracting from the magic of your special day. It can be hard curating a smaller guest list, but it is very much worth it!

Why We Like Intimate Ceremonies

Have you ever had a friend who was planning a large wedding (even locally) and heard how stressed they were basically adding a full-time job to their lives? We are the opposite of that! Our perfectly curated packages include everything you need to get married on the Big Island of Hawaii. We specialize in ceremony planning and all of our packages include one of our: Hawaii wedding venues or Hawaii Beach wedding venues, photography, officiant, floral, planning, and of course an amazing onsite coordinator to assist you on the big day-to-ensure everything goes smoothly.

Our Special Sauce

Photography

We believe our “special sauce” is creating the perfect ceremony accompanied by breathtaking photography that transports you back to the magic of your wedding day.

Each of our wedding packages starts with award-winning photography by our in-house brand, Karma Hill Photography. Founder Karma Hill hand-picked and personally trained each photography team member in the Karm Hill Photography signature style. Their style is characterized by ethereal, light-filled imagery and cinematic composition.

Floral

We have the privilege of working with the finest floral artists on the Big Island our esteemed partner, Grace Flowers Hawaii. Renowned as one of the most reputable and long-standing florists on the Big Island, Grace Flowers is responsible for crafting our exquisite custom bouquets. We offer a diverse selection of stunning fresh flowers, carefully chosen for your ceremony. While many couples opt for our thoughtfully curated bouquet offerings, we also provide the opportunity to create a personalized floral look exclusively for you. Whether you have a specific bouquet in mind or wish to enhance your ceremony with additional decorations like arches, arrangements, or bridal party florals. Our team will expertly guide you toward the best options that align with your budget and vision.

How We Do Things Different

When choosing a wedding planning company for your special day, it’s essential to be aware many packaged services cut corners. This is usually done by selecting photographers and florists based solely on their affordability not quality and skillful execution of their craft. We take a different approach. We only work with the best vendors in the business, carefully selecting renowned brand names to guarantee you the highest quality service and exceptional style. This guarantees you receive the utmost expertise and style for your wedding ceremony, leaving no room for uncertainty in terms of quality or aesthetics.

What Happens After the Ceremony?

Once you have finished your group and couples photography after your ceremony what comes next?

Most of our couples opt for a nice sit-down dinner after their ceremony with their closest family and friends. We offer recommendations for the best places to go that can accommodate your needs and desires. Whether you want to have a section in a restaurant or a totally private dinner oceanfront. We can help you find the perfect post-ceremony option.

While we don’t plan receptions, we can connect you with some great options from our hotel and restaurant partners who specialize in food and beverage and we can handle reception floral and photography. From a private dinner for two with toes in the sand, or a full reception with dancing and all the traditional elements after your ceremony it’s all possible. With guidance and recommendations from our team, you can make the best choice for your vision and budget.

Clients love the flexibility of creating their own after-wedding reception and avoiding the cost of having a full reception planner when there really isn’t a need for one. Our hotel and restaurant partners have full teams of great people who specialize in the food and beverage portion of your day.

Our Team

We have an amazing professional team of planners with thousands of weddings and decades of experience. We pride ourselves in great service with quick replies and honest answers to both easy and difficult questions. Our goal is to make the planning experience fun and stress-free, so you can enjoy your special day without any worries.

We can’t wait to meet you and be a part of your once-in-a-lifetime event!
