Kayla and Caleb’s Royal Kona wedding photos are everything a Hawaii wedding should be—effortless, honest, and full of love. When the couple pictured their day, they imagined something simple and personal: just the two of them, their closest people, and the ocean as their backdrop.

The Royal Kona Resort, perched along the Kona coast of Hawaii’s Big Island, turned out to be the perfect choice. With Nohea Point for their vows, sweeping ocean views, and Kona town within walking distance, it created a celebration that felt relaxed, intimate, and completely true to them.
