Amanda & Dylan's Elegant Waikiki Wedding

There's something truly special about celebrating your wedding in the heart of Waikiki. With breathtaking ocean views, world-famous beaches just steps away, and the vibrant energy of Honolulu,

Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort is an incredible venue for couples dreaming of a destination wedding in Hawaii.

Amanda, who traveled from California, and Dylan, a Hawaii local, brought together family and friends for a beautiful day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable island memories. We had the honor of capturing both photography and videography, documenting every meaningful moment from the morning preparations through the evening celebration.

Getting Ready & A Beautiful Ceremony

The wedding day began inside the Hyatt Regency, where excitement filled the suites as Amanda and her bridal party got ready. Every detail—from the dress and flowers to the emotional moments shared with family—helped tell the story of the day.

Their ceremony was heartfelt and personal, beautifully officiated by Oahu Officiant, with Waikiki's tropical atmosphere creating the perfect backdrop for their vows.

One of the reasons we love photographing weddings in Waikiki is the incredible variety of locations available within just a few minutes, giving couples timeless portraits while keeping the day relaxed and enjoyable.

Sunset Portraits Along Waikiki Beach & Their Wedding Film

After the ceremony, we headed to Waikiki Beach for Amanda and Dylan's couple portraits. As the afternoon light softened over the ocean, we captured romantic and natural moments surrounded by palm trees, turquoise water, and the iconic Waikiki coastline.

But some memories deserve more than a photograph. Wedding videography allows you to hear the voices, feel the emotions, see the movement, and remember all the little moments that made your wedding day yours.

Our videography team, Miguel Hawaii Films, captured Amanda and Dylan's day in a cinematic wedding film, preserving the emotions, laughter, music, and atmosphere of their celebration. From the ceremony and heartfelt moments to their portraits and reception, their film brings the entire experience back to life.

We love combining Hawaii wedding photography and videography because photographs give you timeless images to hold onto, while your wedding film lets you step back into the day and experience it all over again.
