When Danielle and Matthew reached out from Florida with dreams of eloping in Hawaii, I knew this would be an amazing session! They wanted something intimate, meaningful and stress-free. Just the two of them, soaking in the island vibes and making it official. No big guest list, no pressure—just pure love and unforgettable views. That’s where elopement planning came into play, and I was so honored to help bring their vision to life.
From the start, I was all in—helping them with vendor recommendations, crafting a timeline that felt relaxed and intentional, and scouting the most beautiful locations on the island. If you’re wondering where to elope in Hawaii, we landed on three absolute gems. Makapuʻu Lookout, Makapuʻu Beach, and Kualoa Regional Park. Each spot offered something unique, from sweeping ocean views to that dreamy Jurassic Park jungle vibe.
Their day unfolded so naturally. We started at Makapuʻu Lookout as the golden light began to spill over the cliffs—seriously, it looked like a movie scene. Then we wandered down to Makapuʻu Beach. Finally, we wrapped up at Kualoa Regional Park for some lush, romantic portraits surrounded by mountains. It was so peaceful, and just so them.
