All beaches in Hawaii are public (except a few on Oahu and the Big Island), so some beachgoers may be around during your proposal. We select less crowded locations, but if privacy is essential, consider booking a private venue package, available only on Maui and the Big Island. Private venues offer beautiful, secluded settings and additional decor options.
Yes, on most islands, we offer an upgraded beach package that includes a flower circle. See our Romantic Beach Proposal Package for more details.
“Marry Me” signs are available only at locations on Kaua'i, Maui and the Big Island.
Hawaiian weather forecasts can be unpredictable, so we typically make weather decisions on the day of the proposal. If it’s raining, we’ll attempt to relocate to a nearby dry area. If that’s not possible, we’ll do our best to reschedule.
We provide a Google link to the location and a beach map to guide you to the right spot. Your photographer will also stay in touch via text on the day, ensuring you find the best area to propose.
Option 1: “Ninja” Style
In this approach, our photographer stays discreet, either hidden behind foliage or blending in as a beach-goer on a towel. You’ll walk your partner to the pre-determined spot, and our photographer will capture the proposal candidly. After you’ve had a few moments to savor the experience, the photographer will come over, introduce themselves, and continue with an engagement portrait session.
Option 2. Surprise Portrait
Tell your partner you’re having a couples’ portrait session during your visit. About 10 minutes in, the photographer will position you behind your partner, allowing you to get down on one knee. When they turn around, you’ll be ready to propose. This option is perfect if you want to keep the proposal a complete surprise and naturally bring your partner to the location.
We recommend sunset sessions for a romantic ambiance, perfect for celebrating afterward at a nearby restaurant.
Yes, we offer a recommended vendors list, including restaurant suggestions, available after booking.
We don’t currently provide videography, but we can recommend trusted videographers if you’d like.
Yes, though we suggest savoring the moment privately with your new fiancée, we’d be happy to take a few family shots to commemorate the occasion.
