It all started as a friendship that budded into romance. Paige and Marty had known each other for 8 years before officially tying the knot at their Maui beach wedding! The couple met at work, and their casual friendship grew into something special they didn’t expect! Originally from Vancouver, they set their sights on our tropical island for their destination wedding. We are honored to capture the new chapter of their love story in paradise!

Best Friends

Their day was full of light and laughter as their genuine friendship shone through the lens. They spend most of their free time together and are best friends. Before the ceremony, they gushed that they were so in love and couldn’t contain their excitement for their beach wedding! That’s what we like to hear! They wanted a simple ceremony right on Lahaina Shores Beach with the gentle waves lapping at their feet. We love shooting at this location because of the ample sunshine and the powdery white sand. Our Maui beach weddings have a carefree and blissful ambiance that makes them one of a kind!

When we asked Paige and Marty what they hoped for their Maui beach wedding, they wanted something relaxed, intimate, and simple. They invited a few close friends and family to take part in their celebration – barefoot of course! Their guests were so happy to finally see these two best friends tie the knot in Maui after three years of dating. The couple couldn’t wait to start their new life together as husband and wife!

The couple had the most exceptional weather with clear blue skies and a gentle breeze. Sometimes the Maui winds can prove to be tricky conditions for us to shoot in, but they couldn’t have asked for a more gorgeous day. Paige and Marty do love cooler climates but were thrilled to share their precious day on our golden shores.

Paige’s elegant yet flowy dress was perfect for a Maui beach wedding. The couple couldn’t be happier in the photos! We loved capturing their secluded and private moment under the coconut trees that dotted the shoreline. This beach is one of the island’s best locations to capture a Maui sunset wedding.

From all of us at Karma Hill Photography, congratulations Paige and Marty, and mahalo for choosing us to capture your Maui wedding memories! We hope to see you back on our shores soon…

We have been so excited to share Hunter & Andrew’s wedding images since the moment we met them. Their ethereal style and relaxed personalities made them a joy to work with, and we loved being their Maui Wedding Coordinator!

They were a vision of dreamy white and pastel, as if they had descended from Lahaina’s soft sunset skies. And as beautiful as they were, it’s Hunter & Andrew’s warmth and kindness that make them such an all-star couple.

Check out some of our favorite moments from their Maui Beach Wedding — you’ll be wowed by each image!

New Plans and New Beginnings

We originally planned to have Hunter & Andrew’s wedding at DT Fleming Beach in Kapalua. But rainy weather drove us away from that location and to another scenic spot: Lahaina Shores Beach.

As a Maui Wedding Coordinator, we always hope the weather will be clear and sunny. After all, the threat of rain can dampen the day for a couple as they watch the radar and create a new vision for their ceremony.

Luckily, Hunter & Andrew have a great go-with-the-flow attitude, which enabled them to have a wonderful ceremony at a new location with clearer skies and beautiful surroundings.

Lahaina Shores Beach was a peaceful setting for their emotional yet fun-loving Maui wedding. Plus, their entire wedding style looks like it was created for this beach. Meant to be? Possibly. Incredibly Beautiful? Absolutely!

From College Sweethearts to World Travelers – A Maui Wedding Coordinator Story

Hunter & Andrew met in 2014 when they were both in college. Hunter grew up in Kentucky and dreamed of going out-of-state for college. So she headed to Florida, where more awaited her than she could have imagined.

What did she find in the sunshine state? Her future husband! Andrew checked all the boxes for young, adventurous Hunter, and they spent the years to come building a life together. They support each other’s career goals and hobbies, they raise their dogs together, and they enjoy vibrant Orlando life.

When they got engaged, they knew they wanted something small and intimate. Neither one had ever dreamed of a big, elaborate wedding, but they found it hard to plan anything back home that fit their vision.

So they reached out to us, a Maui wedding coordinator, to see if we could create a perfect wedding day for them. We’re so glad we could help them have this beautiful, simple, and elegant beach wedding in Hawaii!

Now that these two have tied the knot in Maui Hawaii, what’s next? They’ll head back to Florida and settle in as Newlyweds. They plan to have a big post elopement party with all their loved ones. And there’s even more traveling on their horizon: Greece in 2023!

But before we bid aloha to Hunter & Andrew, we were sure to get some romantic sunset portraits for them. We loved being their Maui Wedding Coordinator and are obsessed with all their stunning images!

Congratulations, Hunter & Andrew! Mahalo for allowing us to coordinate your wedding ceremony and portraits in Maui!

Cecilia & Raul are such a fabulous couple, and we are so grateful we got to coordinate their Vow Renewal in Maui! It was a gorgeous evening at Southside Beach, despite the rain we had been having throughout the weekend. We were so happy that the clouds parted and created a glowing spot for this pair to renew their vows.

Want to see how stunning a Vow Renewal in Maui can be? Check out some of our favorite photos from Cecilia & Raul’s big day!

Our One Guest

Cecilia & Raul have been married for over 15 years, and they have a lot to show for their time together. They share goals and cheer each other on through career and personal successes. They have faith that has carried them through life’s ups and downs. But what are they most proud of? Their wonderful son Anthony!

This handsome preteen was the only guest at Cecilia & Raul’s Vow Renewal in Maui, so he had many roles. He walked his mom down the aisle, helped Reverend Joe officiate the ceremony, participated in the lei exchange, and cheered on his parents as they became a renewed married couple. Whew, get this guy a poolside cabana and a shave ice — it’s time for him to kick back after such a big evening!

All kidding aside, Cecilia, Raul, and Anthony are an incredible family, and we’re so glad we got to help them have this celebration. When these sweethearts first married in the 2000s, Raul’s military commitments kept them from having a full wedding and honeymoon.

So this Vow Renewal in Maui was their chance to create these core memories and have a complete destination wedding. Free of the many pressures that come with a first-time wedding, they could truly relax and enjoy each moment.

And of course, they have the incredible Maui wedding photography to go with it!

Wow-Worthy Portraits at a Maui Vow Renewal

After Cecilia & Raul became re-newlyweds, it was time to enjoy some portrait time at Southside Beach. We helped coordinate a cake cutting and some sunset pictures for the amazing couple, and each moment was so much fun.

They brought joy, romance, and laughter to their portrait session. Plus, they’re super photogenic, so their photos are fantastic.

Each couple who has a Vow Renewal in Maui brings their own personalities and style to make it truly unique. Well, Cecilia & Raul take the cake! They’re kind, beautiful, and lots of fun. They can come and have a vow renewal with us every year!

Congratulations, Cecilia & Raul, on your anniversary and many successes. Mahalo for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful celebration!

We had a ball at Shea & Todd’s Maui elopement! This beautiful pair traveled from Canada to tie the knot in Hawaii, and we’re so glad they did! It was a stunning evening with a captivating couple, and now we get to share some of our favorite photos!

We met Shea & Todd at Ironwoods Beach and took a small hike to the clifftop, where unbeatable views awaited us. Reverend Kimo officiated the ceremony — he brought Hawaiian traditions and a lot of heart. Keep scrolling to see how amazing this elopement was!

The Best View is When I’m Looking at You

Shea & Todd valued the simplicity and elegance of a Maui Elopement, but there was a tinge of worry to their wedding day. Rain hovered on the radar, threatening to claim their tropical dream. Of course, there is beauty in dreamy, rainy wedding days, but there was something else in store for this darling duo: dry weather, glowing sunset lighting, and pastel skies.

We had the best view of all that up on the cliffs at Ironwoods Beach. This spot is great for adventurous elopers who don’t mind the wind and rugged terrain. Luckily Shea & Todd are as adventurous as they get, and they really shined in this elevated setting.

These two would have been all smiles in any setting — it’s their love that prevails time and again, and they always find joy in everyday life. But here in Hawaii, surrounded by such natural beauty, their joy was enhanced, lifted, and transformed into hope they can carry for a lifetime.

It’s couples like this that remind us how much we love planning Maui elopements!

From One Diamond to the Next

Nearly every wedding involves diamonds, but Shea & Todd are drawn to a different kind of diamond — the one found at the ball fields. Avid baseball & softball fans, they also both play the sport and love spending their free time on the fields.

While their love of baseball bonded them early on, they actually met playing dodgeball. We guess they couldn’t dodge the spark of romance between them, but why would they want to?

Shea & Todd are such a cute couple, full of life and adventure. And their Maui elopement allowed them to slow down and truly appreciate their love story.

Now that they’ve had their breathtaking Maui wedding, they can look forward to what’s ahead. Supporting each other in their career goals, spoiling their cute dog Grey, more time playing ball, and hopefully a trip back to Hawaii soon!

We’re so glad we could help Shea & Todd have a memorable and gorgeous Maui elopement! Check out even more of their portraits below!

Congratulations, Shea & Todd! Mahalo for choosing us as your elopement coordinator!

When you elope in Maui, there are fewer things to make you nervous. That’s what draws so many wonderful couples to our island. One thing that brings anxiety to even the most laid-back couple? The weather.

Let’s set the scene, and then you’ll see how awesome Stephanie & Chris are!

Last weekend brought gray skies and lots of rain. Definitely not the bright tropical elopement this sweet couple dreamed of. We planned to have their ceremony in Wailea, but cloudy skies lurked overhead.

So what do Stephanie & Chris do? They go with the flow. These two were terrific, and sure they’d have a great day anywhere. So when we suggested moving to a dryer area of the island, they were totally up for it.

We met them a few minutes north in Kihei, where it seemed dry and clear. But we weren’t out of the woods yet.

It seemed like a rain cloud was following us, threatening to dampen our new plans as well.

Was it a miracle that the rains held off and the clouds cleared? Was it the wedding angels smiling down on Stephanie & Chris? Was their love so bright that no rain cloud stood a chance against them?

We think it may be all of that and more. We’re so happy that it worked out for them to elope in Maui! Check out their gorgeous Maui elopement below and join us in congratulating the beautiful newlyweds!

Best Delivery Ever

Stephanie & Chris are such a great match for each other! They’re laid-back yet adventurous, hard-working but always ready to share a laugh. The perfect type of couple to elope in Maui!

In fact, Chris had a somewhat humorous way of proposing to his now-wife. Stephanie is an online shopping enthusiast and looks forward to her Amazon deliveries. They joke that Stephanie gets home from work and enthusiastically greets the packages on her front porch before saying hi to Chris.

When it was time to surprise Stephanie with an engagement ring, Chris disguised it in an Amazon box and added it to her stack of packages. She was shocked and ecstatic when she opened that box and found it was a ring.

Of course, their proposal was emotional too, but it shows the kind of lighthearted fun these two are always searching for.

Their wedding reflected that too! While they were full of beauty and romance, they were also playful and cute. We loved helping coordinate their plans to elope in Maui!

An Emergency Meet-Cute

Stephanie & Chris first met in the ER. Stephanie is a nurse, and Chris is a firefighter/paramedic. They had seen each other a few times in passing, but hadn’t ever talked.

One night, Chris brought Stephanie an ER patient and a pickup line. He wanted to talk to her for a while but was too nervous. He lingered a while after giving Stephanie the patient’s report, and he ended up with her phone number. Score!

What started as workplace flirting ended up being a lifelong romance.

Once it was time to plan their wedding, they realized they were more excited about traveling than hosting a big event. Chris had been to Hawaii before, and Stephanie really wanted to visit the islands with him.

So they decided to Elope in Maui!

They had a beautiful ceremony with Reverend Richardo, and then they took dreamy newlywed portraits on the beach. Check out their sunset photos below — they’ll have you daydreaming about having your own elopement in Maui!

Congratulations, Stephanie & Chris! Mahalo for choosing us as your Maui elopement coordinator!

It was a gorgeous afternoon in Kihei. The palms were swaying in the gentle trade winds. The sunlight dappled through the tall, old trees. The gardens at the Rustic Hawaiian Ruins were bright and blossoming. And Chaney & Bryan were married in a memorable and beautiful Maui Venue Wedding!

The couple was stunning: relaxed yet whimsical, romantic yet fun. We loved working with these two and are excited to share some images from their unforgettable ceremony. Take a look!

Our Journey, Our Memories

There is so much to love about Chaney & Bryan’s Maui Venue Wedding. Chaney’s bridal style is elegant yet unique, and their wedding vibe is earthy and timeless. Plus, they’re so full of love and trust — it was a joy to see them commit their lives to each other!

Chaney & Bryan made their wedding even more unique by having a guest officiate their ceremony. This allowed them to bring so much personalization and heart to their service, and they had us all in tears.

But how did beautiful Chaney and adorable Bryan end up falling in love and having a Maui Venue Wedding?

It all started in 2015, when they were coworkers at Costco. They bonded when working the night shift together, and eventually discovered a spark between them.

They had worked together a few times when Chaney nearly tripped while cleaning the floors. Was it the near fall that left her breathless? No, it was Bryan catching her.

They soon realized they were dating, and as years passed, they found themselves in a joyful, loving relationship.

After getting engaged on a fun-filled trip to San Fransisco, it was time to start planning their wedding.

They had visited Maui before, for a brief getaway just before Covid shutdowns. Looking back on their memories here and hoping to have a full wedding experience with a small group of loved ones, they put it all together: a Maui venue wedding would be the perfect celebration for them!

The Rustic Hawaiian Ruins – A Garden Setting for a Maui Venue Wedding

Chaney & Bryan married at the Rustic Hawaiian Ruins, an outdoor chapel and garden in Kihei. We love how the trees and landscaping keep this area cooler than other wedding venues in Maui. This fun group was headed out to a dinner cruise after the ceremony, so we planned an afternoon ceremony at this shaded venue.

There is a gorgeous altar framed by tall palms and an old rock wall, and winding paths take couples and their guests through an abundance of tropical plant life. We loved having Chaney & Bryan’s Maui Venue Wedding at this dreamy location.

After the beautiful pair officially became husband & wife, we took some romantic couples portraits around the ruins. These two are young, in love, newly married, and can’t keep their hands off each other — so we absolutely loved photographing them! All we needed to do was give them a few suggestions and prompts, and they were ready to get photographed.

Everything about Chaney & Bryan’s Maui venue wedding was a joy, and we’re so glad we could coordinate it!

Congratulations, Chaney & Bryan! And mahalo for choosing us as your Maui wedding coordinator!

Everything is better at the beach, including weddings! Anton & Daria had a simple, stylish, and fun wedding in Maui, and we’re so glad we got to be a part of it.

If you love whimsical style, stunning photography, and amazing scenery, you will love these images from Anton & Daria’s big day. We met this gorgeous pair at Poolenalena Beach for an intimate, wow-worthy ceremony. Check out some of our favorite moments below!

All The Right Details

Anton & Daria found the perfect balance between simplicity and glamour for their wedding in Maui. Hoping to ease any last-minute jitters, they had a private first look before beginning their ceremony. We loved how that turned out! They were able to share a few moments of quiet time, and take in each other’s beauty before joining their guests at the beach.

Of course Karma Hill Photography was there to capture it all!

A dear friend walked Daria down the aisle to Anton, and then Kahu Sean led them through a heartfelt, Hawaiian-inspired ceremony.

After they had shared emotional vows and exchanged their rings and lei, they officially became husband and wife! The joy was palpable, and their guests were in great spirits as they celebrated with the newlyweds.

The fun was only just beginning, though! We helped create a mini reception on the beach as part of their wedding in Maui. Everyone enjoyed live ukulele and hula as Anton & Daria cut their wedding cake, all while being only steps away from the ocean.

Manutea Nui E provided incredible Hawaiian entertainment, and the musician played a song so that Anton & Daria could have their first dance on the beach. What a sweet memory! Keep scrolling to see how glowing and happy everyone was during each moment!

A Wedding in Maui, A Love for a Lifetime

Anton & Daria look amazing — that much is obvious. But they’re also kind and warm, passionate yet playful. Working with them was a joy, and their personalities brought so much life to their images.

Po‘olenalena Beach was the perfect setting for their ethereal wedding in Maui, and their portraits are dreamy and romantic. The setting sun painted the sky with soft pastels, and the gentle ocean brought a calming presence.

We love how Anton & Daria brought both softness and vibrancy to their Maui wedding day — something that they’ll also bring into their marriage. Sure, things won’t always be pastel skies and endless blue ocean, but with a love like theirs, they can weather any kind of day.

We’re so excited to share these beautiful photos with them, and we treasure each memory from their wedding in Maui!

Congratulations, Anton & Daria! We loved working with you and are grateful we got to be your coordinator!

We can’t believe it’s already been a week since Lillian & Tony’s beautiful Lahaina Wedding. We had such a good time with these two and their amazing family, and now we get to relive their day through these photos!

Ahead, we’ll share some of our favorite moments from their destination wedding and learn about the journey that led them to Maui’s scenic shores. Come along and get ready to be wowed by their gorgeous Lahaina Wedding!

A New Wedding Dream

Lillian & Tony met the old-fashioned way: at a bar! Don’t ask them who made the first move — they won’t agree. One thing they will agree on? That it was meant to be. That fateful meeting turned into years of partnership and growth, inside jokes and shared dreams, and eventually a Lahaina wedding!

They got engaged on a multi-country trip through Europe, a story as romantic as it is adventurous, just like Lillian & Tony!

But then Covid happened, and their original wedding dreams went on the back burner. But that didn’t mean they were setting aside their vest for romance and adventure! It just meant they needed to discover a new wedding plan that was right for them.

After visiting Maui this past April, Lillian & Tony realized a small Lahaina wedding could be perfect. Though it was scaled back from their original, pre-covid plans, they still included traditions that meant a lot to them.

Lillian’s dad walked her down the aisle, and the newlyweds shared a first dance on the beach. And of course they got all kinds of beautiful photography captured. Check out even more great moments below!

Pastel Skies at a Lahaina Wedding

Lillian & Tony got married at Lahaina Shores Beach. This shoreline stretches in front of the Lahaina Shores Beach Resort and the 505 Front Street shops. We love the peaceful waters and pastel sunsets here, plus it’s only steps away from some of the island’s best restaurants.

After their ceremony, we got some stunning newlywed portraits around the beach. Part of their Lahaina Wedding Plans was a dinner with their guests at Pacific’o on the Beach. Their loved ones got a head start at the restaurant while Lillian & Tony enjoyed some alone time during sunset.

They took in all of Maui’s scenic beauty while capturing some stunning shots with Karma Hill Photography. We also got a surprise visitor at this Lahaina Wedding: A monk seal swimming just offshore.

While Lillian & Tony had a lot of ups and downs during their engagement, we’re glad they ended up having a Maui wedding with us. They were so kind to work with and a dream to photograph!

Lahaina Shores Beach is right on Front Street. It’s about 10 minutes away from the Hyatt Regency, Royal Lahaina, and other Kaanapali beach resorts. Some couples also come from a beach house or boutique hotel on Front Street.

Congratulations, Lillian & Tony! Mahalo for choosing us as your Maui Wedding Coordinator. We’ll see you again in Hawaii soon!

It was a beautiful Morning at Baldwin Beach: The sky was bright and blue, the waves rolled gently to shore, and Ashley & William got married. We loved this Maui Beach Elopement and are excited to share these stunning images!

From heartfelt vows to playful portraits, from nervous arrivals to that joyful pronouncement, we’ve put together some of our favorite memories of Ashley & William’s Maui wedding day! Check them out below!

From Preschool to Forever

Ashley & William grew up in the same town and went to preschool together, so they’ve pretty much known each other their whole lives! But what brought them from toddling cuties to lifelong partners? Their love story began in high school — They started dating when they were seniors and have been together ever since.

Years passed, and they eventually joined us for a Maui Beach Elopement. They got engaged in 2018. It was a quiet Christmas Day proposal, perfect for this private couple. Not ones to stage big productions or go over the top, Ashley & William wanted their wedding to be simple yet special.

We’re so glad we could help them plan a wedding that was right for them. Baldwin Beach was a vibrant and scenic setting, and Richardo officiated a heartfelt ceremony, complete with Hawaiian traditions and a beautiful blessing.

Ashley & William have so many loved ones supporting them from back home, and now they get to share beautiful Maui Beach Elopement photos with them. They’re a stunning couple who brought so much life and emotion to each image!

The Right Time & Place for a Maui Beach Elopement

We love morning weddings at Baldwin Beach. The water takes on a bright, turquoise color and the West Maui Mountains stand tall in the distance. There’s soft golden sand here, along with lush greenery and lots of space to explore.

It was so much fun to spend the morning with Ashley & William. We included lots of time for newlywed portraits during their Maui Beach Elopement, so they walked along the shoreline, cooled off in the shade, and embraced the North Shore winds that carried them warmth and blessings.

As the sun lifted higher into the sky, it was time to bid aloha to the gorgeous pair. Though this was their first time visiting Maui, we know it won’t be their last. Now that they’ve had a Maui Beach Elopement, Ashley & William will be drawn to the islands again and again, each time finding a new adventure and romance.

Congratulations, Ashley & William! Mahalo for choosing us as your Maui elopement coordinator!

We’ve been so excited to share Nami & Gustavo’s Four Seasons Maui Wedding since the moment it started! This stylish couple traveled from Japan to marry at this luxe Wailea property, and it was a wow-worthy event.

In fact, when Nami arrived at the chic lobby of the hotel, our photographer and onsite coordinator both said wow in perfect unison. Her bridal style was show-stopping — you can tell Nami is a trendsetter with an eye for romance. But she was totally down-to-earth as well, the kind of bride we love working with.

And Gus looked quite suave himself. He was in great spirits as he nervously awaited for Nami’s arrival, and when he first laid eyes on her, one of his many excited thoughts was wow.

There is so much to love about this Four Seasons Maui Wedding, and we’re going to share a lot about it below. So settle in for an evening of romance and beauty, and check out this sneak peak of Nami & Gus’s Hawaii wedding!

Tranquil, Romantic, and Timeless

Reverend Joe officiated Nami & Gus’s Maui Four Seasons wedding. He brought humor and heart, along with a few Hawaiian traditions. Nami and Gus presented lei to each other and to all their guests, inviting their small group to become one with the ceremony and their surroundings.

Plumeria Point at the Four Seasons Resort is one of the prettiest wedding venues on the entire island. Two Plumeria Trees frame the altar while palms sway in the distance. It’s a small space, perfect for elopements or micro weddings.

Nami & Gus had a perfect balance of elegance and fun. They included chic styling along with kawaii (cute) details. They’re a cute couple, so it came easy to them — they were full of laughter and passion as they became husband & wife in this beautiful setting.

We are so happy we got to be a part of this memory, and we’re also glad that Karma Hill Photography captured some IG-ready images for the photogenic pair!

From Japan to Hawaii – A Four Seasons Maui Wedding

Nami & Gustavo had the greatest guests. The warm, jovial group came from all across the globe, meeting here in Maui to celebrate a love story that seems better than a dream.

Gus had recently moved from the US to Japan when he met Nami. He was a photographer with a techy side and a love of travel. She was an adventurous spirit who loved anything cute, fashionable, and/or fun, especially dogs!

They hit it off right away. Months turned to years, and they knew they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together.

And that’s how they ended up in Wailea, Maui. With travel so complicated and each with family far & wide, it made sense to meet up in a place where they could all gather. And what better place to gather than Maui?

We of course got all kinds of group photos with their supportive guests, and then it was time to capture some newlywed portraits. We headed over to Wailea Beach with Nami & Gus while the guests started cocktails and appetizers at the Four Seasons.

Going to the beach gave us a front-row seat to a stunning sunset. And it gave Nami & Gus a chance to unwind and show off their fun, lively personalities.

We absolutely adored working with these two and being a part of their Four Seasons Maui Wedding! Keep scrolling to see how the sunset added extra style and color to their already gorgeous personalities.

A dream wedding with a beautiful couple! We loved being a part of their big day.

Congratulations, Nami & Gus! Mahalo for choosing us as your Maui Wedding planner — we wish you all the best!!

The island’s southern shores were an idyllic setting for Regina & Michael’s Maui Wedding. They’re a cute couple, full of energy and love, and Southside beach gave them a spacious, pretty spot to celebrate with their family.

We had such a good time planning this beach ceremony, and we were excited when the time finally came to meet Regina & Michael. They were as lovely in person as they were during our virtual planning!

Now it’s time to share some highlights from their gorgeous Maui wedding — check out some favorite images that Karma Hill photography captured!

Anywhere is Paradise With You

Reverend Kuya Robert officiated Regina & Michael’s wedding ceremony. He included faith-based and Hawaiian elements, creating a spiritual experience grounded in their surroundings. Plus, it seemed so personal for Regina & Michael, like Kuya was speaking directly to their soul.

We are all about soulful, beautiful couples, so we’re obsessing over Regina & Michael’s Maui wedding. They seemed simply happy to marry in such a gorgeous place, and their joy shines through in each image.

Keep scrolling to see even more favorite memories from their ceremony!

These Glowing Moments

After Regina & Michael became officially married, there was still a lot of fun to be had! First, we needed some sweet family shots, so we got all kinds of group combinations there on the beach. Then it was time to get some newlywed photos.

This is the highlight of each Maui wedding, because it gives the couple a chance to unwind and take in their surroundings, plus we get to know them even better.

The Wailea sunset was gorgeous this evening — glowing and colorful, peaceful yet vibrant. It’s the kind of setting that invites anyone to step into romance. But as a freshly married couple, Regina & Michael were one with nature’s beauty.

Soon it was time to bid aloha to the stunning couple. They were off to celebrate with their adorable guests, and we were left with wonderful memories of their Maui wedding!

Congratulations, Regina & Michael! Mahalo for choosing us as your coordinator. We wish you all the best for endless happiness!

Last week, we had the great honor of coordinating Jordan & Michael’s Maui Destination Wedding. They married at the Steeple House Maui, a scenic venue in Kapalua. It was a beautiful Hawaii day, and the couple was absolutely stunning.

Now that the wedding day is behind them and their honeymoon comes to a close, it’s time for new excitement: seeing their Maui wedding photos!

We are so excited to share this sneak peek with them. They were filled with so much joy, and their love radiates in each image!

From Trauma Buddies to Husband & Wife

A Maui Destination Wedding was the perfect fit for this fun-loving couple. Jordan & Michael are both nurses — that’s how they met.

They worked together in the ER for about a year until they finally crossed the threshold into coupledom. They went to breakfast together after a late-night shift, and there with tired eyes and a comfortable friendship, they confessed that there was a connection there.

They’ve moved on to separate jobs but have built a life together. This Colorado couple loves the outdoors and spending time with Shadow and Odin, their two sweet dogs.

They got engaged in a hot air balloon and knew they wanted something grand and memorable for their wedding too. Having visited Hawaii together before, they decided on a Maui Destination Wedding.

And that’s how Jordan & Michael went from the ER to Maui’s sunny shores. We’re so glad we got to help these two essential workers have a fantastic Hawaii wedding!

From the Land to the Sea

After their ceremony at the Steeple House, it was time to take portraits with the glowing newlyweds. The venue served as a scenic backdrop for their romantic pictures, but they also wanted something closer to the water.

We were excited to get some clifftop photos as part of Jordan & Michael’s Maui Destination Wedding. Ironwoods Beach is a gorgeous location with dramatic cliffs. The sunset views there are amazing. Not only was this a chance to get wow-worthy portraits, but they also got to spend some quiet time together during a lively wedding day.

As the sun slipped into the warm Pacific waters, Jordan & Michael slowed down, took in their beautiful surroundings, and embraced their brand new title as husband and wife.

This was such a fun, gorgeous wedding, and Jordan & Michael are so amazing. Keep scrolling to see more of their portraits!

Congratulations, Jordan & Michael! We are wishing you a lifetime of happiness and hope to see you in Hawaii again soon!
