3 Clear signs you should Honeylope:
Your wedding budget keeps getting in the way of your honeymoon budget 😜
Wedding budget cramping your honeymoon style? Get ready to give your getaway the spotlight it deserves. No more compromises, just epic adventures, and memories for days!
#1
You prefer campfires, smore’s and cold beer to all that fancy stuff
Don’t worry about entertaining all the people you know or kinda know (and their +1s), or spending thousands of dollars on a wedding cake you take one bite out of when you’d rather get cozy around the campfire with your partner and maybe some of your buds, eating pizza, making s’mores & drinking cold beers🔥🍺
#2
You two want EPIC pics doing sic stuff like climbing, rappelling, rafting or off-roading with an award-winning adventure photog!
You’d rather hire a badass adventure photog to take you on some dank adventures and document you guys doing a bunch of epic bucket-list shizz, instead of hiring a ‘traditional wedding photog’ who’s telling you to ‘smile’ ‘kiss’ and pose awkwardly all damn day 📸

Heyooo! We’re Vows W/ Views😛
Lead Photog & Adventure GURU 📸
Mal
HEYOOOO! I'm Mal, the founder and original elopement photographer of Vows with Views. Over the past decade, I've planned and photographed hundreds of elopements all over the world.
Roused by nature, travel, and The Great Outdoors - I love backpacking, surfing, climbing, and wild, off-road adventures. I get inspired by outdoorsy couples who are as stoked about Earth’s great wonders and beauty as much as I am😊
-
I LOVE helping them make their wedding trip into one of the raddest and most adventurous experiences of their lives 😍
For almost a decade, I have been helping couples elope in Kauai on some of the world’s dopest beaches. But then a pandemic took over the world and made it really hard for couples to travel to my little jungle island.
So, three years ago I made the career-altering decision to expand my adventure elopement biz to all sorts of sweet places on the mainland. In particular, to some of my favorite mountain ranges and national parks, where I’ve spent a TON of personal time exploring over the years.
If you’re planning to get married, let the rad lil adventure team that I’ve handpicked and brought together be your besties! We’ll bring the stoke, you bring the love story, and together, we’ll all let nature charm us😜
Claudia
Field Operations Manager, Officiant & Guide
From the moment you sign up, till you elope, till you stand on top your first desert tower, Claudia is with you every step of the way! She wears many different hats in the process and has unlimited stoke to fulfill all of your adventure desires!
Lucas
Filmmaker & Camp Host
Straight outta Kauai, Lucas and Mal have been producing outdoor media projects for over a decade together. With his strong cinematic story-telling skillsets and sense of adventure, filming elopes with the team in 2022 inspired him to join the crew and officially hit on the road with us for our 2023 season!
Why work with our team?
Because we are the OG’s! Mal’s the first (and possibly still the only) photog to actually buy a BRAND NEW airstream for her couples to stay in during their elopement trips. Her experience and passion for camping, adventure guiding, and photography is the reason our multi-day elopement packages are the only one of it’s kind!
“I wish I could give Mal and her company a million stars! My husband and I had the most magical and special elopement and it’s all thanks to Vows with Views. Mal went above and beyond to show us her fav spots around Kauai, all while taking dope photos of us. It was the best experience with zero stress, hassle, or worry. Mal and her team planned everything and we had to do was show up! Mal’s energy and passion are contagious so it made it easy to be photogenic. It was the perfect wedding and I would do it all over again. I highly recommend booking with Vows with Views!”
“I am so glad that we chose Mal & her team to document our day. We traveled from NY to AZ because we wanted something different & memorable and man did we get what we had hoped for! The only thing better than the pictures we received are the memories behind them. Mal & Halie have to be 2 of the most real, down to earth people we’ve ever met. I couldn’t be happier with our entire experience. Please, if you’re looking for the best in the business and some lifelong memories (and friends), consider booking with these peeps.”
