5 Steps to Plan Your Hawai’i Elopement

Has a Hawai’i elopement been at the top of your bucket list for a while now? I mean, who wouldn’t want to get married in Hawai’i?! It’s gorgeous just to visit, but getting married there is certainly incredible. Today I’m giving you a step by step guide on how to make this dream a reality:

 

Step 1: Download my free Elopement Planning Guide

This guide will help you plan all aspects of your adventure elopement. It’s filled with tons of tips to help you prep for the perfect elopement with your partner. I made this guide so it’s easy for you to map out your elopement journey while still staying as true to yourselves as possible!

You’ll begin with question prompts to think through individually and then share with each other, then we’ll figure out what vendors are most important to you, and after that you’ll start planning out your vision! Does it look like a super intimate wedding with your closest family at a National Park? Or is it just your and your partner eloping at a picture perfect beach? There are so many beautiful places in Hawai’i to choose from! I’ll help guide you though all you need to know to plan your elopement! You can download my guide here.

After you’ve thoroughly looked through my guide and have a good idea of what you and your partner are dreaming of, schedule your Elopement Consultation with yours truly! I cannot wait to get to know you both, and I am thrilled you are considering me to capture some of the most special memories of your life.

Step 3: Book your Elopement Package

Woah! It’s all happening so quickly! After we do our consultation, it’ll be time for you to book your elopement package. I’ll start scouting the most dreamy ceremony and portrait locations based on what we discussed on our call, all while you start planning all the other details using my 100-page exclusive client guide: the Elopement Planning Guide. It’s all starting to come together at this point and we are counting down the days until your island elopement!

Step 4: Secure a Permit for your Location

All public land in Hawai’i requires a permit for holding a ceremony, so before your elopement you’ll need to secure a permit for your location. You can apply for any permits here, and apply for your marriage license (YAY!) here. Make sure you do both of these in advance!
