Jen and Stavro’s wedding is one of our favorites! They celebrated their destination wedding on the Hawaiian Island of Oahu. The ceremony was held at St. Constantine Greek Orthodox Church. The reception was held on a Private Estate in Aina Hania. Aina Hania is Hawaiian for “Hind’s Land”, named after famous local Robert Hind. It located just east of famous Oahu areas, Diamond Head and Waikiki.

Not only was this wedding gorgeous, but this couple knew how to have a fun time! We love the little touches this couple added to their ceremony. The lanterns and flowers were great additions for the table arrangements. What is your favorite part of this destination wedding? Share with us in the comment section below!

Gemy Vinson - Just looking at these photos gives me ideas to share with brides who come to my salon. I love the attention to detail on the flowers. The lace around them was delicate and beautiful. Lots of people go to Hawaii to wed. Jen and Stavro did it right.

Justin & Elena held their wedding in the town Lahaina. Lahaina is popular tropical getaway location, on the west side of the Hawaiian island Maui.   Their gorgeous wedding was shot by Amelia Soper Photography.

This couple had a perfect destination wedding. They even served the iconic Hawaiian Drink, a Mai Tai. A Mai Tai is a cocktail that mixes rum, lime juice, and Curacao Liqueur. Their color theme, white with hints of yellow, went perfectly with the stunning Maui scenery. We love that Justin and Elena provided their guest with flip flops, so they could enjoy the beach. Congratulations Justin and Elena on your Destination Wedding!

Outdoor Wedding

Miki and Aaron said, “I do” in this gorgeous outdoor wedding on the island of Oahu. This wedding was shot by the talented Rachel Robertson Photography. Miki and Aaron met while working on the set of the hit television show Lost, which was filmed on Oahu. Years later, they returned to the island. That is when Aaron proposed to Miki on the top of the hiking trail Kokohead.

From the start, Miki knew she did not want to use an indoor venue for her wedding. With friends and family visiting Hawaii for the first time, they decided to give them a spectacular Hawaii experience. They did this by having their outdoor wedding on Dillingham Ranch. They set up a few activities before the wedding, so the guests could see everything the North Shore of Oahu has to offer its visitors. From paddle boarding in the famous Waimea Bay to having their rehearsal dinner at a local favorite, Haleiwa Cafe.

Miki wanted to embrace Hawaii as part of her wedding theme. She also was able to add her own touches with mercury glass, chandeliers, and vintage frames. She decided to use coral and hints of gold as her main theme colors. The bride even set up a few do it yourself projects with her bridesmaids. They painted the frames on the tables, and made a few wedding signs. Congratulations Miki and Aaron!

Sunset Ranch

Lauren and Marc were together for 9 years before their Hawaiian wedding. This happy couple held their ceremony at Sunset Ranch, an area that overlooks the classic Oahu, North Shore. When picking out the venue, the bride was looking for something different and outdoors. Sunset Ranch was perfect for this couple because it was remote. Their wedding party was able to relax, and let loose during the private reception.  These wedding photo’s were taken by Rachel Robertson Photography.

To go with the ranch venue, Marc and Lauren decided to go for a rustic, nature theme for their wedding. Their main inspiration was the humongous eucalyptus tree that they said their vows under. Going off of their inspiration they used green as their name theme color, with yellow accents. As for personal touches, we love the pinwheel’s with the guests names and table numbers. Congratulations Lauren and Marc on a lovely wedding!

Shannon and Tyler were married on the Hawaiian Island Maui. This island was a second home to Shannon growing up. She always wanted a small destination wedding. Shannon was able to have a her dream Hawaiian wedding. Close family and friends joined Shannon and Tyler to celebrate their nuptials. They held the ceremony at Wailea Golf Course.

Gideon Photography was there to capture the gorgeous wedding. Walking distance away from the golf course was the stunning beach. This is where the couple had most of their photos taken. We love the photo of the couple sitting in a tree (k-i-s-s-i-n-g). If you have not considered having a destination wedding, this couple shows perfect examples of why you should. From the breathtaking location, to intimate affair, this wedding fabulous. Congratulations Shannon and Tyler!
