Hawaiian Wedding Full Moon
Here is both a fun and beautiful wedding photograph of a Hawaiian wedding full moon. It was rising up over Mauna Kea on the Big Island of Hawaii. This unusual wedding photograph is from the August 1st Hawaii destination wedding of Brittany and Willie.
If you didn’t know, Mauna Kea is a dormant volcano on the island of Hawaii. Standing 4,207 meters above sea level, its peak is the highest point in the state of Hawaii making the island of Hawaii the second highest island in the world. Joannie and I drive near the summit of Mauna Kea to watch the sunset a couple of days after the wedding. All I can say is you have to do that is you’re ever there. You literally will drive your car through and above the clouds!
This fun wedding photo was taken during their stunning outdoor wedding reception at the Hilton Waikoloa Village on the Big Island of Hawaii. A truly spectacular place to get married in the beautiful Hawaiian island paradise.
Willie, Brittany, and their wedding guests are having a lot of fun on the outdoor dance floor right there on the Pacific Ocean! Shortly after the wedding dance got underway, the full moon began rising up behind them.
In our 30 years as wedding photographers, we’ve never witnessed anything quite like this! It was almost surreal, like something out of a movie. Very cool!

Disk jockeys eat your hearts out. Talk about “special effects” on the dance floor! We’re talking about a real volcano and the real full moon! Not to mention that an hour or so earlier, we had a spectacular sunset on the Pacific Ocean while we were eating dinner outside!
