Oahu Hotel Weddings: Royal Hawaiian, Hilton, Kahala & More

Say I do on the beach steps from your hotel, then celebrate with family and friends who are all staying together.

Hotel Weddings in Honolulu & Waikiki

Hotel weddings in Honolulu and Waikiki give you the best of both worlds: a beautiful beach ceremony and the comfort of a world-class hotel just steps away. Get ready in your suite, walk down to the sand for your vows, then celebrate with dinner by the ocean while your family and friends stay together under one roof.

From the historic Pink Palace on Waikiki Beach to tropical lagoons, garden gazebos and sunset luaus on the west side, Oahu's hotels make your wedding easy for everyone. Aloha Island Weddings plans the ceremony and the details, so you can simply enjoy the day.

Waikiki

The Royal Hawaiian Hotel

Known as the Pink Palace of the Pacific, the Royal Hawaiian sits in the heart of Waikiki at 2259 Kalakaua Avenue, with grand arched walkways, a lawn shaded by banyan trees and its own stretch of Waikiki Beach. Our couples love its old Hawaii glamour for getting ready, bridal party photos on the verandas and a ceremony with Diamond Head views.

Waikiki

Hilton Hawaiian Village

At the west end of Waikiki, the Hilton Hawaiian Village is a resort village of its own, with a calm lagoon, gardens, pools and a wide beach. Couples get ready in their rooms, take photos by the lagoon and celebrate at sunset, just as Jill & James, Lauren & Johnathan and Summer & Chris did.

Kahala

The Kahala Hotel & Resort

Just past Diamond Head, the Kahala is a quiet, elegant resort beside Waialae Beach, away from the bustle of Waikiki. Garden gazebos, ocean lawns, a waterfall and sweeping views make it a favorite for classic weddings, like Jon & Nina's celebration.

Waikiki

The Hale Koa Hotel

The Hale Koa is the Waikiki hotel for the U.S. military community, set beside the wide lawns and beach of Fort DeRussy. Its luau gardens and white gazebo are a lovely setting for a ceremony, as Bryan & Rie found, and the sunsets over the beach are some of the best in Waikiki.

West Oahu

Ko Olina & Paradise Cove

On Oahu's sunny west side, Ko Olina is home to calm swimming lagoons and resort hotels, with Paradise Cove nearby for oceanfront ceremonies and luau receptions. It is famous for golden sunsets, tiki torches and a relaxed resort feel away from the city.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we get married on the beach in front of our hotel?

Often, yes. Many Waikiki and Oahu hotels sit right on the beach, and a beach ceremony steps from your hotel is one of the easiest ways to marry in Hawaii. Tell us where you are staying and we will suggest the best spot nearby.

Can we get ready in our hotel room?

Absolutely. Getting ready in your suite makes for relaxed mornings and beautiful photos, and our photographers can start there before the ceremony.

Do you help with a reception at the hotel?

Yes. We can help you plan dinner and a reception at your hotel or a restaurant nearby, or add a reception package like our Kuulei Reception.

Which Oahu hotel is best for a wedding?

It depends on the feel you want: classic Waikiki glamour at the Royal Hawaiian or Moana Surfrider, a big resort with a lagoon at the Hilton Hawaiian Village, quiet luxury at the Kahala, or calm lagoons and sunsets at Ko Olina. We are happy to help you choose.
