NYC to Hawaii: this pair self-united at their Hawaiian elopement
Photos by Erin Paris Photography and Ceremony Design

Tammi and George are New Yorkers who rocked a tiny, self-officiated elopement in Oahu, Hawaii. Well, they had a unique officiant situation. Their photographer got ordained to officiate the wedding, but left them to be the star of the show with their own vows while she captured the ceremony. It was a pretty awesome way to be in control of your ceremony and still make it official and legal.

Tammi is a local girl from Hawaii so the decision to get married there was a no-brainer for them. You'll want to see Tammi's amazing Alexander McQueen black dress (she's a fashion designer so that was important!), her gorgeous flower crown, George's matching black suit, and the shots of their sweet family…
