At Pink Pineapple Weddings, we appreciate it can be overwhelming to plan a destination wedding from afar, especially in a place where you’re unfamiliar. Not only have we lived on the Big Island for almost a decade but we are also a couple who chose to elope here in Hawaii. Because of our personal experience with planning our own destination wedding, we have firsthand knowledge of the challenges and questions. At PPW, we take the guesswork out of planning. We will help you find the perfect setting for your elopement. We provide you with full galleries showcasing some of our favorite locations and venues. We also know how important photography is when you’re eloping. What categorically sets us apart from other elopement companies is offering resort quality wedding photography with Dawn Eicher. She will document every moment flawlessly and her work sets us apart from the rest.

We don’t stop at locations and photography. We assist you with the marriage license process, so it’s simple and easy. We also provide custom floral additions, videography, plus give you recommendations for hair and makeup artists. You may also choose to add on services such as bubbles, bakery and musicians. We make planning the perfect day from afar a breeze!

Dawn and our team directs you into the most authentic interaction for a super fun and amazing experience. We love that video also allows you to relive this once in a lifetime moment whenever you watch your film. The way the sun was shining, the way your dress touches the sand, the way you looked at one another – all documented to relive again. We offer a full ceremony edit, so you can rewatch those teary or heartfelt words expressed again, and we also include a short highlight film to capture all the “best of” moments and snippets of your best day ever! Relive the feelings, feel the love and capture the story of your wedding day. Along with photography, we round out telling the best love story possible – yours!

Our Big Island based team will help capture the love and emotion between you two in a short film

During COVID in 2020, when families couldn’t gather and couples chose to elope solo more often, we decided to add video services to our packages. This additional service allowed couples to share their special day with those that couldn’t attend in person and also capture the magic from their day. We also had another goal – to make elopement videography affordable!

It all started with a pandemic and the desire to share your love

The Process

- Jenny T

We loved working with Dawn from PPW for our Big Island elopement! I would choose PPW again in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly believe that with the price paid, the services are a steal.

- Rachel M.

Being multiple time zones away was pretty scary when planning a wedding. They made it so easy! We cannot thank  them enough for making our day the most special and everything we had dreamed of! 

- Kelsey A.

Dawn and Mike instantly put us at ease, and the entire day went off better than we could have imagined. Mike had us all laughing and crying, and Dawn captured everything perfectly.

Let's get started!

PLUS, it saves money! The average wedding now costs $24,000! Trust me, 150 guests with a minimum cost of over $160 per person, having an intimate event will save you some serious money.

You get to do what YOU want, and plan around the details that are most important to you

You get to enjoy your honeymoon right away, and also enjoy a vacation with your closest friends and family, spending much more time with them than only ONE day

You can skip the headache of planning an elaborate wedding with a huge guest list and massive details to tackle

We believe there are many reasons to choose to elope or plan a destination wedding:

Whether you call it an elopement, micro wedding, or destination wedding, we think eloping in Hawaii is the best! Elopements by definition or usually 30 or fewer guests, and destination weddings would include a bit larger guest list.

Why Choose

A Big Island Elopement

Let's get started!

We are a locally run and owned company, run by a couple that actually LIVES in Hawaii. There are now many elopement planning services located on the mainland, and they don’t know the beaches, the hidden gems, the vendors, the culture like we do.

We are able to help you plan the perfect event, from the two of you, to a group of 30 or less on the beach, to a lavish event at a private estate. We want your wedding day to be special and perfect without sacrificing any of the best parts that a larger event would offer.

With over 500 weddings planned, we know just how to make it perfect for you! Want to have your first dance on the beach? Of course! Cut your cake on the beach? Absolutely! Whatever traditions you want to incorporate into your elopement, we are here to help see your vision through from start to finish!

We also think the Big Island is the perfect location to elope. From the pristine white sand, to the stunning lava rock shores, this island offers so much more than gorgeous scenery. The size of the Big Island offers more seclusion and privacy too. And we know all the local gems and when they will be less crowded. We are the experts on sunsets, settings and scenery. We will show you all of the options, you choose your location, and leave the rest of the details to us!

We are the experts FOR Big Island elopements and destination weddings IN hawaii. Pink Pineapple believes that we can provide the best possible Big Island WEdding planning services, guiding you every step of the way.

Why Choose

Pink Pineapple Weddings?

WHAT SIZE WEDDING DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR A BEACH WEDDING?

Hawaii Parks and Recreation permit up to 30 people for a public beach wedding. If you are looking to have more guests then we recommend choosing from one of our preferred private wedding venues. Capacity varies depending on venue.

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?

Tropical weather is unpredictable, but here on the Big Island we are lucky to have great weather most of the time. In the case that there is rain we do our best to still make your day as enjoyable as possible. After all, it’s good luck!

HOW SOON CAN WE VIEW OUR WEDDING PHOTOS?

The turnaround time for your fully edited photo gallery is 2-4 weeks depending on the season.

HOW DO WE GET OUR HAWAII MARRIAGE LICENSE?

You can start the process online, but you MUST personally appear before a licensing agent and show proper ID to get your marriage license. For more information please visit this link.

Of course, if you have any additional questions we will be happy to give you more guidance in this area.
 
CAN WE HAVE CHAIRS OR ARCHES ON THE BEACH FOR OUR WEDDING?

Unfortunately Hawaii State Law does not allow chairs, arbors, or any other structures besides a small cake table and loose flowers on public beaches. We recommend choosing from one of our preferred private wedding venues for weddings with more guests and décor. 

WILL MY PHOTOS LOOK JUST AS AMAZING AS THE ONES I SEE THROUGHOUT THE WEBSITE? WHO WILL BE PHOTOGRAPHING OUR WEDDING?

YES! Every photo you see on our website was taken by Dawn Eicher so rest assured, what you see is what you get! For more samples of her work, please click here to see her full portfolio.

Dawn is your photographer 99% of the time. Occasionally she is already booked on your wedding date, but we are definitely able to request a suitable replacement.
