Olivia and Roshan both love the island, and they’ve been vacationing here since before they even met. So of course, it was the perfect place to have their Maui destination wedding. The evening was clear and breezy, and our couple was more than ready to say “I do.” 

The Maui Destination Wedding

Roshan had planned to propose in Maui last year, but with COVID, he rearranged his plans and they had a Maui destination wedding instead. Gannon’s grassy knoll served as the outdoor venue, featuring an expansive view of the south side and lush island greenery. But the most spectacular view had to be our couple’s sweet expressions. We are all about their smiles! 

Our Couple’s Story

Olivia and Roshan met at work. He thought he was simply training a new nursing grad, little did he know she’d turn out to be the love of his life! Like any good love story, at first, these two did not get along. But once they opened up and got to know each other, they knew there was something special. It took just one date for Olivia and Roshan to realize they’d found the one. 

When COVID canceled Roshan’s big plans for a Hawaii proposal, he got to work on another plan. Olivia and Roshan had recently bought their dream house, and while she was working on Thanksgiving day, Roshan set up a beautiful display in their favorite room.

With five pounds of rose petals, he created a dream proposal, and, of course, Olivia said yes! On top of gaining a husband, Olivia also gained a daughter! Roshan’s ten-year-old daughter served as the cutest flower girl ever and had the biggest smile! Keep scrolling for the sunset photos of Olivia and Roshan’s Maui destination wedding!

Congratulations, Olivia and Roshan! We wish you all the happiness in the decades ahead!

Emily and Sina’s beautiful Maui beach wedding was like a drop of sunshine, bright, warm, and kept making us smile. With a gorgeous tropical backdrop and a handful of loved ones watching on, this beautiful ceremony had everything island dreams are made of. 

The Maui Beach Wedding

We planned to have Emily and Sina’s Maui beach wedding on the shore of Southside, but with the threat of rain, we ended up moving the ceremony to Maluaka Beach. And it turned out to be a perfect choice! We can’t always shift the location, but we were able to get to the edge of the cloud line, which resulted in a slightly overcast ceremony and a sunset that was poppin’! Keep scrolling for all the sweet wedding day moments!

Our Couple’s Story

Our bride had the sweetest story, that we just had to share on our blog! From our bride: 

“We met the age-old way – the internet! We actually matched on Coffee meets bagel. We talked for a few days and then met for our first date at a local bar/restaurant called Sovereign. 

“Proposal: we had an unseasonably warm day in Northern Virginia. We decided to go into DC to Georgetown and walk around. We went to take pictures in front of the place of our first date. That is when Sina gave the most heartwarming speech and dropped to his knee. I didn’t even say yes – I just said of course!” How cute is that?! The rest of their story is right here on our blog! 

Congratulations, Emily and Sina! We wish you all the joy and happiness in the decades to come!

Last week, Becky and Carlos had a Maui beach wedding that was simply elegant, relaxing, and filled with love. With their family watching on and their sweet son clapping his cute little hands, there were good vibes and unforgettable memories all throughout this ceremony. 

The Maui Beach Wedding

Maui holds a special place in Becky and Carlos’s hearts. They’ve been visiting for nearly the length of their relationship and have made irreplaceable memories. It only made sense that they’d have a Maui beach wedding to celebrate their union. 

Wearing a white gown with off-the-shoulder accents and a wrapped opening, Becky was the picture of a beautiful, glowing bride. Carlos looked fantastic himself in black slacks and a button-down with a camel jacket. Their style was on point and their love was off the charts! Keep scrolling for more of the lovely ceremony. 

Our Couple’s Story

Becky and Carlos met on a boating trip. Becky was taking care of a friend who’d fallen ill, and Carlos left the helm to try and keep her company. After an Instagram invite, Becky says Carlos “Dove right into her DMs!” Although he likes to say otherwise!

Five years later, they were pregnant with their rainbow baby, and to celebrate, they took a trip to Maui for maternity photos. During the shoot, Becky asked Carlos to remove his hat, but he begged her to let him wear it for just a few more photos. She agreed, and during one of those photos, he dropped to his knee to ask her to marry him! The rest of their story is right here on our blog!

Congratulations, Becky and Carlos! We had a wonderful time coordinating your Maui beach wedding, and we wish you plenty of joy and love in the decades to come!

Jessica and Mason’s beach wedding in Hawaii was filled with love and plenty of sunshine. This amazing couple flew in from Oregon with a handful of friends and family to celebrate their love with a ceremony in paradise. It was a spectacular day fit for a spectacular love!

The Beach Wedding in Hawaii

Jessica and Mason’s sons were adorable as they played a part in the ceremony. Their oldest is nine years old and the cutest ring bearer on the planet! Wearing a lace gown with a classic cut and silhouette, Jessica was a vision on the shore. We loved how her Anuenue bouquet added the perfect pop of color to the ceremony and matched her mother’s gown.

Tender vows followed the lei exchange, and our couple was soon declared married! 

Our Couple’s Story

Jessica and Mason met when they were kids, but they went their separate ways. Five years ago, they reconnected–and what a connection it was! Jessica and Mason were engaged in Reno and now here they are, tying their lives together with a beach wedding in Hawaii! Keep scrolling for more of their special day!

Sheila and Juan wanted to have a small family vacation, and the Universe kept sending them hints about Hawaii. So of course, they listened and had a Maui beach wedding! With a handful of family watching on and their sweet son playing the part of ring bearer, this was a ceremony overflowing with love!

The Maui Beach Wedding

Sheila and Juan wanted a Maui beach wedding that was rustic, fun, and Mexican Boho. We love how the splashes of red and rustic elements pop against the white sands. Wearing a chiffon mermaid gown with delicate lace details, Sheila was a goddess walking. We are all about that sweet look on Juan’s face as he watched his bride walk down the sandy aisle!

Our Couple’s Story

Sheila and Juan met in college and swept each other off their feet. After a few years, they bought a house together and were soon blessed with their sweet boy.

Follow along as our bride shares their engagement story: 

“Our engagement was a complete surprise to me!! Juan had planned a wine date for us since it was the first time having a date since Diego! We walked around the vineyard and Juan stopped walking and I asked if everything was okay. He started to tear up and shared our love story and then got down on one knee and proposed to me. I of course said “finally, about time! Lol”

Our Couple’s Story

Tori and Tom met at a Halloween party. Tori was dressed up as a Pulp Fiction character and no one recognized who she was… except for Tom! From that moment on, their friendship blossomed.

It was a stunning morning for Melanie and Brenden’s Maui beach elopement on the sands of Lahaina Shores. With boats speckling the horizon and a couple deeply in love, this was nothing short of a once-in-a-lifetime celebration! 

The Maui Beach Elopement

It was just Melanie and Brenden for their Maui beach elopement… plus an occasional photobombing sailboat or two! With the purple mountain slope of Lanai in the backdrop, the view was breathtaking. Reverend Joe Miles officiated the ceremony with his trademark humor and grace, and soon it was time for vows and to celebrate the union of our sweet couple! 

Our Couple’s Story

Melanie and Brenden have known each other for what seems like forever, quite literally! They met in grade school and began dating in high school. Clearly, it was more than a crush! Melanie and Brenden have been together for almost eleven years and engaged for four. 

This is Melanie’s first trip to Hawaii and her second trip on an airplane. What a way to celebrate! Melanie and Brenden chose to have a Maui beach elopement because it was beautiful and easy. And no two words could better describe this lovely ceremony. Keep scrolling for more!

Andrea and Adam’s Maui beach elopement was the perfect combination of relaxed and sophisticated. The island was softly lit and the ocean was simply radiant. It was our pleasure to help make their wedding day dreams come true. 

The Maui Beach Elopement

We love Maui beach elopements! Getting to know our couples is a huge part of why we do what we do. Follow along as Andrea and Adam’s onsite coordinator describes the special day: 

“Andrea & Adam were a real sweet couple who live in Nashville but are originally from North Carolina. They arrived together in an Uber and were very relaxed and happy. They set up a tripod to tape the ceremony on their phones. Ironwoods beach can get really windy, but it was an extra calm day. That was good news for Andrea’s hair, but it did mean it was extra hot. But they were in good spirits the whole time and super happy. They got to Maui on Saturday and were staying at the Hyatt. They didn’t have any plans for the rest of their vacation, they were just going to relax and enjoy their time in Maui.”

Our Couple’s Story

Andrea and Adam met through work in North Carolina, but they now live in Tennessee. The big proposal came during a vacation in Palm Beach Florida when Adam popped the question just before dinner in a park at sunset. Keep scrolling for more of Andrea and Adam’s big day!

Mahalo nui loa, Andrea and Adam, for trusting us with your Maui beach elopement. We wish you all the happiness in the years ahead!

Few things are as rewarding as helping a couple as in love (and as wild in the best of ways!) as Joy and Ranzi have their dream Maui beach elopement. Seeing these two in their element and embracing their marriage with open arms had us wanting to burst out in Disney songs, which we knew Joy and Ranzi would happily sing along to!

The Maui Beach Elopement

Joy and Ranzi come from the Philippines and they missed their favorite ocean. So having a Maui beach elopement seemed like the perfect way to tie in their past with their future. The shore of Baldwin beach featured soft and dreamy lighting, which was the ideal backdrop for such a vibrant couple. 

Our Couple’s Story

It was attraction at first sight for Joy and Ranzi. When Joy was fourteen, she spent the night at a friend’s house and while they were discussing old crushes, Ranzi was mentioned. After a quick peek at his Facebook, Joy was hooked. She asked her friend if it was okay for her to friend him, and the result was a chat long into the night. Joy says she didn’t know how Ranzi would fit into her life, but she knew he had to be a part of it. Or should we cue Disney and sing, “Part of heeeeeer woooorld.” 

The engagement came years later, and the story is so sweet, we had to have our bride share it:

“We went to Washington state for my belated birthday celebration this past February. He took me to Olympic National Park where the Tree of Life is. There were quite a few people there waiting to take pictures underneath the tree so we spent our time taking photos on the beach.”

“After everyone else had had their turn to take pictures, finally it was ours. He knelt on one knee and I don’t remember everything he said but I do remember the incredibly lame pun — “I wanted to propose to you under the Tree of Life because we’re starting a life together.”

How sweet are these two?! Keep scrolling for all the moments of this Maui beach elopement! 

Yasss! We are so here for this awesome pose! We love it when couples let loose and enjoy their wedding day! 

Congratulations, Joy and Ranzi! We were thrilled to be a part of your Maui beach elopement. We wish you all the very best in the years ahead!

Last week, Tammi and Michael said “I do” during their tropical Maui beach wedding. With loved ones there to cheer them on and a cool island breeze, it felt closer to a dream than reality. Southside Beach featured all the beautiful greenery and golden sands for a ceremony that was truly unforgettable! 

The Maui Beach Wedding

Wearing a vibrant flower crown and a curve-hugging gown, Tammi took our breath away as she entered the sandy venue. Michael’s sweet first look said it all: wow! These two have a special connection, and it was so clear during their Maui beach wedding. With every glance and supportive word, Tammi and Michael are meant to be! 

Following the ceremony, it was time to celebrate with apple cider and cake by the sea! There was no shortage of love and happiness during this very special day.

Hannah and Henry’s Maui micro wedding was a radiant affair in red and gold. With the sweeping views of the western coast and friends and family cheering them on, Hannah and Henry had the ceremony of their dreams. Come see all the beauty!

The Maui Micro Wedding

The historic Steeple House served as the venue for Hannah and Henry’s Maui micro wedding. Our bride put on her finishing touches in the suite and soon it was time to start the show! Wearing a flowing gown with floral applique, Hannah was a vision against the tropical greenery. We love the way Henry’s traditional suit popped with the red accents. 

Reverend Richardo had the pleasure of tying Hannah and Henry together through marriage. There were smiles and laughter as these two said “I do” and began their journey together as a married couple. Then it was time for the team at Karma Hill Photography to capture the after photos!

Our Couple’s Story 

Hannah and Henry were fortunate enough to meet early in life, as way back as high school! When they found each other again in college, they knew it was meant to be. When the time was right, Henry took Hannah back to his family’s cabin in central Oregon, the same place they initially started dating. There, he asked Hannah to marry him, and the rest of the story is right here on our blog!

Tracy and James flew all the way in from Washington for their Hawaii beach wedding on the shore of Ironwoods. The sky was peaches and cream and the ocean was nothing short of spectacular. With a couple in love and the ocean’s salty breeze, this was a ceremony that island dreams are made of. 

The Hawaii Beach Wedding 

Tracy and James arrived together, wearing classic outfits that perfectly tie in the sophistication of a traditional wedding with the laidback style of a beach ceremony. Reverend Kuya officiated their union with his fun and welcoming personality. It was a simple yet beautiful event.  

Our Couple’s Story

This lovely Hawaii beach wedding is the second marriage for both our bride and groom. Life is an adventure, and we love learning about all our couples’ unique and beautiful love stories. Our bride and groom both have two grown children, and James is a proud grandfather. They both love the outdoors, hiking, and snowshoeing. 

Tracy and James met at Paradise on Mount Rainier. They spent the day hiking up to Camp Muir, all the way up to 10300 feet! When asked, they said, “It was a beautiful day especially as Tracy danced down the mountain!!!” Keep scrolling for all the sweet moments of this special day!
