Affordable officiant/ photography on Oahu

mlisa04 · May 2012

I live on Oahu but am still pretty new to the island....we're getting married on July 17 and I'm trying to find someone to officiate our non religious beach wedding. I feel overwhelmed with all the listings online.

I would like an officiant who comes with a photographer/photo package because it gives me one less thing to worry about

Any recs?

We're getting married on the westside (Makaha beach to be specific)

We went with Suzanne Ventura http://www.alohafromhawaiiweddings.com/index.html she is a wedding planner and a photographer. She also booked our officiant who was amazing. We did not book photography with her but she did a wonderful job planning and executing our wedding. Her services were also very affordable. HTH

I will always recommend Kahu Bruce, as will many others for officiant. He was amazing. There was a touch of religious, but not much, and DH and I are not religious. I didn't mind it, but I'm sure he'd take it out if you asked. He does a Hawaiian touch to teh ceremony and all of our guests said he was fantastic. We think so too

Check out Pastor Karen Carson Russ at Weddings of Hawaii (www.wedhawaii.com). She did a fantastic job at my girlfriend's wedding a few years ago and has packages to include everything including photography, flowers, etc.

I'm actually using her son Jimmie as photographer at my wedding in a couple of weeks. He did my friend's wedding (she used Pastor Karen to coordinate everything) and he did a great job. He's really affordable -- and it's all digital so you get the photos with release and just print them at Costco.

Congratulations & good luck!

Check out Rev Kim Taylor. He's fabulous. We've worked with him in the past and his rates are reasonable and he's very personable.

I would highly recommend Blake La benz. He is doing my wedding .. He is partnered with Yanicke at www.zenjuweddingsnevents.com ... He is amazing! I am not religious either. We had our rehearsal session the other day which is far far in advance but my coordinator likes doing things in advance to make room for changes. The officiant is on her website. He has his own page. He does not do a religious ceremony at all he mostly does a Hawaiian traditional ceremony which gives back to the land and joins you and your husband with the land. He is amazing! There are three photogrpahers you can choose from her site as well who are all top quality, much different styles, and also different rates... Good luck! MahalO!
