This was my first elopement ever at Foster Botanical Garden! When Judy and Ben were telling me about how overwhelming planning a big wedding got, I loved that they decided to screw it all and elope to Oahu! Since Hawaii has so many wonderfully beautiful places to have a wedding ceremony which will it be: beaches, gardens, or a hotel? All great options, but for elopements today I love outdoor ceremony spaces which is why Foster Botanical Garden is perfect!

Foster Botanical Garden has a variety of garden spaces to get married: Croton Terrace, Main Terrace, Palm Garden, Economic Garden, and Daibutsu Terrace. For Judy and Ben, we opted for the Croton Terrace, but the best part is that we were able to take bride and groom photos throughout the garden after their wedding ceremony was over! Woohoo!
