Getting Ready for Their Elopement at Makapuu Lookout
Both Stephanie and Gilbert got ready separately for their elopement day at Makapuu Beach. Their wedding details were simple yet stunning. The florals were from Puaka’ie Floristry and hair and makeup were by Reveal Hair and Makeup, both of whom did an exceptional job. Once both Stephanie and Gilbert were ready in their wedding attire they met up for a first look which was SO sweet. They were both smiling from ear to ear and eager to make their way to Makapuu Lookout for their elopement ceremony.
Their Elopement and Picnic at Makapuu Lookout and Beach
For their elopement ceremony we chose to have it atop Makapuu lookout which gave us such an incredible backdrop for their ceremony. Looking out over the vast and beautiful ocean as well as the landscape of the Oahu shoreline created such an incredible backdrop for their ceremony. With a few of their family members looking on over their ceremony the two said their vows before officially becoming newly weds. After some elopement portraits on the lookout we made our way down to Makapuu Beach for a romantic picnic on the beach. Stephanie and Gilbert were so happy to be able to relax and celebrate their elopement with such a lowkey day where their love was the sole focus. It really could not have been a more perfect day.
Hawaii Full-Service Elopement
As previously mentioned Stephanie and Gilbert contacted me and hired me for a full-service elopement for their celebration at Makapuu Lookout and Beach. This meant that Olson Productions was in charge of everything for their day, from the location and vendors, even down to setting up the picnic. It was such a pleasure to be able to put Stephanie and Gilbert’s day together from the bottom up, and the pictures, video, as well as their review really speak for themselves for how it all turned out!
“MERSADI IS A DREAM. Mersadi and her team exceeded our expectations in every way and in every stage of the process, and if we could do it all over again, we wouldn’t change a thing. I am so glad I trusted them with everything. We were blown away by Mersadi’s exceptional professionalism, creativity, talent, and care from start to finish. We literally just had to SHOW UP. My husband and I are shy/introverts, but spending hours with Mersadi and Jay felt like we were hanging out with our friends- that is how comfortable they make you feel every minute! They made us feel safe and at ease. They truly bring the laid-back, fun-loving, tropical sensibility to any celebration. No one else is better in the business, and we’re eternally grateful we found them! LOOK NO FURTHER. BOOK THEM NOW!!” -Stephanie + Gilbert
