There's nothing quite like a Big Island Hawaii beach wedding. Soft sand under your feet, the sound of the Pacific behind you, and a sky that turns every shade of gold and pink as the sun drops toward the horizon — the kind of moment Hawaii is famous for.
Our Big Island beach wedding packages are designed to be completely stress-free — Kona Wedding Officiant® handles the licensed officiant, professional photography, fresh flower or Kukui nut leis, your Hawaii State Beach Permit, and your Hawaii marriage license filing. You just show up, barefoot, and say "I do."
Every Hawaii beach wedding package is fully customizable across more than fifteen of our favorite beaches on the Big Island — from white-sand classics like Kūki'o and Old Kona Airport Beach to dramatic black-sand bays at Kīholo and beyond.

"Deanna was an absolute dream to work with. From our first email to the moment she pronounced us married on Kūki'o Beach, every detail was handled with such care. She wrote the most beautiful, personalized ceremony — our guests are still talking about it. Truly the heart and soul of our Big Island wedding."

"We planned our destination Hawaii wedding from across the country and Kona Wedding Officiant® made it completely stress-free. The beach permit, the marriage license, the leis, the photographer — everything was handled. We just showed up barefoot and said our vows. Best decision we made."

"Deanna's ceremony brought my mom to tears (in the best way). She took the time to really get to know us on our consultation call, and it showed. The Kīholo Bay black sand beach setting was magical, and her photographer captured every moment perfectly. Five stars isn't enough."

"The whole experience felt effortless from start to finish. Deanna walked us through every step, answered every question, and made our small Old Kona Airport Beach ceremony feel grand and meaningful. The Hawaiian leis and personal touches she added were so thoughtful."

Common Questions
Big Island BeachWedding FAQs
A few of the questions couples ask us most when planning a Big Island wedding. Need more help? Reach out anytime →
Yes — most Hawaii State beaches require a wedding permit. Kona Wedding Officiant® handles this for you for most locations. If permits aren't included, we will guide you through the process to obtain one.
Absolutely. Our Big Island beach wedding packages accommodate 3 to 25 guests. For Hawaii ceremonies for just the two of you, please see our Hawaii Elopement Packages.
It depends on the vibe, your guest count, accessibility needs, and where you're staying on the Big Island. Kona Wedding Officiant® helps you choose the perfect Hawaii beach during your free consultation. You can also explore all Big Island beach locations.
The Kona side of the Big Island of Hawaii is one of the driest places in the state — rain on wedding days is rare. We are locals to the island, so last minute back up plans such as location changes or date changes can be accommodated as needed.
Hawaii makes it easy — there's no waiting period or residency requirement. We walk you through the application and handle all of the filing for you. Learn more on our Hawaii Marriage License page.
