Alec & Brianna's Dream Proposal at Sandy Beach, Oahu
From college friends to soulmates, Alec and Brianna’s love story has been five years in the making. They met during their college years through mutual friends, and over time, their bond blossomed into something truly special—filled with laughter, adventure, and unwavering love.
When Alec decided it was time to propose, he wanted a moment that would match the depth and magic of their relationship. That’s where we came in—to help design a custom Hawaii engagement proposal that would leave them with memories to cherish for a lifetime.
The Romantic Proposal Setup at Sandy Beach
Alec reached out to us at Jolene Kaneshige Photography to help plan and capture the perfect moment. His vision: a sunset beach proposal on Oahu, complete with classic romance and island charm.
We brought his dream to life at Sandy Beach Park, a hidden gem on Oahu’s southeastern shore, known for its rugged coastline and panoramic ocean views. Just as the sun began to dip toward the horizon, we laid out a heart made of red rose petals in the soft sand and positioned a 4-ft tall “Marry Me” sign to complete the stunning setup.
As golden hour cast a warm glow over the waves and lava rocks, Alec led Brianna down the beach to the scene. Her reaction when she saw the setup—pure shock and joy. When Alec got down on one knee, the moment felt straight out of a dream. And of course, she said YES!
Why Choose Sandy Beach for Your Hawaii Proposal?
Sandy Beach is perfect for couples who want a more secluded, naturally breathtaking setting for their Oahu proposal. With its turquoise waters, lava rock cliffs, and golden sands, this spot provides a dramatic backdrop without the crowds of more touristy beaches like Waikiki.
We love it for its romantic sunset lighting, epic ocean views, and the space it offers for private, intimate proposals. We captured every detail—Brianna’s surprised smile, Alec’s heartfelt expression, the tears, the laughter, and the stunning Hawaiian scenery. Our discreet photography style ensures that the focus stays on the couple and the magic of the moment, while still delivering magazine-worthy engagement photos.
