Kenna and Anthony’s Maui Destination Wedding took place on the manicured lawns of the 5 Palms in Wailea. With a brilliant sun and soft, tropical breezes, this ceremony was elegant and filled with island magic. Not to mention an incredible love story! As loved ones watched on, Kenna and Anthony tied their lives together with full hearts and the glistening ocean in the backdrop. 

The Maui Destination Wedding

The 5 Palms Restaurant set the stage, where the shore-side lawn made for the perfect setting for Kenna and Anthony’s “First Look.” Looking stunning in a lacy gown and goddess-worthy hair, Kenna gently tapped Anthony on the shoulder before he turned and took in the sight of his beautiful bride. His sweet reaction had us beaming! All smiles and no hesitation. This is clearly a love between two best friends. #relationshipgoals

The ceremony began with the blowing of the conch. Then came the gorgeous wedding crew, wearing vibrant splashes of blush and maroon. We’re lovin’ the variety of bridesmaids’ gowns paired with the groomsmen’s stylish suspenders! Then guests were treated to an adorable trio of cuties before a hush came over the ceremony as Kenna graced the aisle with her father. Does a wedding get more lovely than this? Keep scrolling!

Our Couple’s Story

Their love is out of this world! Both Kenna and Anthony work within the field of aerospace, with Kenna as an aerospace assembly inspector and Anthony working as an aerospace final assembly mechanic. Together they have a handsome son who’s in his toddler years and looks just like Anthony! They also have an eight-year-old black lab named Miller, who they call their “dog son.” How cute is this family?! 

When asked how they met, Kenna replied, “My cousin kept begging me to meet his friend Anthony. After three months of my cousin bugging me, I finally met Anthony and we clicked and haven’t stopped talking since the day we met. And we didn’t really have the traditional engagement, we kinda just decided to get married before we expand our family :)” And the rest of their story is right here on our blog! 

Congratulations, Kenna and Anthony! It was our pleasure to coordinate your Maui Destination Wedding! We wish you all the love and happiness in the years ahead.

Serafina and Peter’s Maui Elopement on DT Fleming Beach had all the romantic and tropical vibes! With the soft afternoon sun cascading over their shoulders, Serafina and Peter took the first steps to building a strong marriage based on love and respect. 

The Elopement on Maui 

We met up with Serafina and Peter on the rustic shore of DT Fleming. Known for its perfect waves, this Maui beach is situated on the northwest coast of the island, which means dreamy lightning and the rugged features of Kapalua. 

Serafina looked spectacular in a boho-inspired gown with striking geometric designs and an elegant silhouette. We loved how the simplicity of her beachy hair paired with the soft flow of her train. Looking sleek himself, Peter pulled off the classic navy suit with the confidence of a man about to marry the love of his life. We can not get over the sweet glances and smiles shared between these two! 

Our Couple’s Story

Serafina works as an LVN nurse in OB/GYN, and Peter is a firefighter for the city of Santa Clara. Together they live in San Jose, CA, and love to stay active. Serafina and Peter met through mutual friends at a wedding and have been going strong for thirteen years. 

In  2011, Serafina and Peter took a trip to Portugal and were engaged in the Azores Islands. Clearly, they love to travel and have even been to Maui twice! They knew the island was the perfect place for an intimate elopement. Keep scrolling for more of this sweet couple! 

Mahalo, Serafina and Peter, for trusting us with your Maui Elopement. We had a wonderful time working with you and wish you only the best in the years ahead.

Do you hear those wedding bells ringing? We are thrilled to announce our newest Maui Wedding Venue at the Hyatt Regency in Kaʻanapali! While you may only hear the bells in your heart, this oceanfront venue is guaranteed to fill your wedding with the very real sounds of the rolling tides and tropical breezes.

To celebrate being able to offer yet another stunning venue to our couples, and to help welcome in a new wedding season of warmth, health, and vitality, we gathered our good friends at Karma Hill Photography, Dellables Floral Artistry, Salon 253, and Elly’s Formal Wear to create a styled shoot with all the island beauty and wedding magic a couple could ask for. 

The Maui Wedding Venue

Situated in the heart of Kaʻanapali, the Hyatt Regency overlooks the westernmost coast of Maui, which means spectacular sunsets and sweeping ocean views. This is the definition of a beach-front wedding venue! For added customizability, we are offering two ceremony locations at the Hyatt Regency: the Makai Lawn (featured in this blog) and the Japengo Lawn.

The Makai Lawn is only available for sunset weddings and can host up to 70 guests. While the Japengo Lawn is available for morning weddings with a guest limit of 20 and sits above the beach path. Both locations feature sweeping panoramic views of the ocean.

Our Spectacular Vendors

Coordinating this styled shoot at our newest wedding venue truly felt like we were basking at the beach. The crisp smell of the ocean paired beautifully with the sweet scent of the gorgeous florals. Our good friends at Dellables blew us away with an asymmetrical custom arch of roses and bursts of greenery, artfully tying in the blushing hues of the late afternoon sun and tropical shoreline.

Wearing attire gifted to us for the day by Elly’s Formal Wear, our couple looked chic and sophisticated. We’re loving the groom’s clean-cut suit with a pressed undershirt for a classic touch. The delicate lace details of the bridal gown seem to pull inspiration from the bride’s custom spring bouquet, perfectly pairing with the loose bun and bold brow and lip by Salon 253. The team at Salon 253 didn’t forget about our Groom model, his long hair was swept up into the perfect formal man bun, inspired by Harry Styles.

The Venue Details

Getting married at the Hyatt Regency not only comes with an unparalleled view, but it also comes with an abundance of perks. This Maui wedding venue offers several onsite options to follow your ceremony: an intimate dinner for two, a private room at one of the resort’s world-class restaurants, a simple and beautiful brunch, a Luau onsite, or the ability to rent out a private event space so all of your guests can celebrate with you! 

Wedding Photography at the Hyatt

Following the staged (yet take-your-breath-away lovely) nuptials, our couple stepped onto the sand for sunset shots against the ocean backdrop. State permitting laws restrict our photographers from setting foot on the beach, requiring them to capture images from the venue terrace.

However, the team at Karma Hill Photography are masters of the craft and will skillfully line up each shot to create dynamical yet soft angles that artfully capture your love framed within the tropical beauty. Kaʻanapali beach is also public. So while you may get a good-intentioned cheer or two from passersby, the photo editing team will work their magic to ensure you have gorgeous photos of just the two of you on the sand. 

Not to mention the spectacular on-sight backdrops! Follow along for the jaw-dropping sets we found right on the Hyatt terrace! To learn more about this Maui Wedding Venue, click here. 

We would like to send out a big thank you to our specular vendors and models! It’s always a joy to work with each and every one of you. We are endlessly thankful for all you do to help bring our clients’ dreams to life! Here’s to a new season of love, health, and prosperity!

If you’re planning or even simply considering a wedding on Maui, don’t hesitate to contact us. Our friendly wedding team is always happy to show you how easy and simple a Maui wedding can be.

Lona and James’s Elopement in Maui had us all dancing with joy! Celebrating five years together, Lona and James tied the knot against a pristine ocean backdrop with the powder-soft sands of Po’olenalena Beach beneath their feet. The clear sky gave way to a sunset of bursting hues in gold and tangerine, as if the island were sending its fondest blessing. 

The Elopement on Maui

The Elopement on Maui took place on the shore of Po’olenalena, with Kahu Euta beginning the ceremony with the traditional Hawaiian conch shell. From the moment Lona stepped on the sand, we knew the day would be filled with joy and that magic spark of eternal love. Wearing a smile from ear to ear, James could not look away.

It’s little wonder why. Draped in a jewel-encrusted gown with casual pleating with a beachy plait that perfectly framed her glowing face, Lona was simply stunning. James was on cloud nine, just like the day Lona sent him a text asking him out for that first cup of coffee. He still has the video of his reaction, howling with delight as he reads it!

Our Couple’s Story

Lona and James work together in the mortgage business. He has three kids, who Lona loves and adores! Their wedding marks five years together, or as Lona says “The best five of my life <3” Together they enjoy being active, they even built a house together! 

Lona and James met at a UNR football game, both acting as company for two friends who were interested in each other. Turns out, their friends weren’t the only ones with chemistry! Lona and James fell in love and moved in together three months later. Two years following, at their favorite restaurant, James got down on one knee and popped the big question. Lona burst into happy tears and the restaurant-goers burst into applause! The rest of their story is right here on our blog! 

Mahalo, Lona and James, for trusting us with your elopement in Maui. It was a gorgeous day, and you were a joy to work with. We wish you all the best in the years ahead!

Lara and Kevin’s Maui Beach Elopement was flooded with warm, tropical sunlight and the sweet smiles of a couple in love. On the shore of Polo Beach, our couple said “I do” with only the ocean cheering on, and, of course, their little one fist-pumping in the oven! Lara and Kevin have plenty to celebrate! A marriage welded in love and a little bundle of joy on the way to share in all the kisses! This was a Maui Beach Elopement that had us beaming with joy!

The Maui Beach Elopement

The weather was crisp and cool with that famous salty ocean breeze. From the start, Lara and Kevin could not stop smiling. Their smiles were infectious, and it was so clear that this was a union between best friends. Wearing a simple gown perfect for the beachside, and carrying a beautiful bouquet of island flowers, Lara is simply stunning. From soft touches to deep embraces, Lara and Kevin were over the moon to celebrate their future together. 

Our Couple’s Story

Lara is in public relations and Kevin is in healthcare. In their spare time, they love to play card games, cook and try new foods, play with their dog, Bogey, and spend time with family and friends. After the pandemic froze their plans for a large wedding back home, Lara and Kevin decided to have a Maui Beach Elopement plus a mini island-hopping honeymoon. After, they plan to celebrate with a large reception with friends and family. 

Lara and Kevin crossed paths on Bumble. After their first two unforgettable dates, they knew this was something special! Kevin popped the question during a trip to Paris in front of the Eiffel tower and Lara says, “It blew me away!” Bonjour love, sweet love!! The rest of their story is right here on our blog! 

Mahalo nui loa, Lara and Kevin! Thank you for choosing us to coordinate your Maui Beach Elopement. It was an amazing day, and we wish you nothing but the best in the years ahead!

Kristina and Charlie’s Hawaii Elopement began at the Four Seasons estate and ended on powder-soft sands beneath the full moon. Southside Beach set the stage, decorating with the gentle rolling tides and lush greenery. It was a pleasure to be a part of this incredibly special day. 

The Hawaii Elopement

Our session began at the sweeping grounds of the Four Seasons, where Karma Hill Photography captured getting ready coverage to document the big day. Kristina put on the finishing touches to her eye-catching ensemble. With a bodice-hugging lace gown, a seemingly endless train, and striking almond eyes, Kristina is a queen!

When the time was right, she tapped the love of her life on his shoulder and Charlie got his first look at his gorgeous bride. His reaction was pure love! Following the first look, we swept our couple away to Southside Beach to solidify their special union. 

Our Couple’s Story

Kristina and Charlie currently live in Philadelphia, PA, where she works as a clinical inpatient pharmacist and Charlie works in surgical sales. Together they have a sweet furbaby named Troy and love cooking together, watching shows on downtime, and exercising. Kristina and Charlie met during their friends’ wedding rehearsal dinner. They hit it off instantly and had a blast during the Big Day.

It seems as if Kristina and Charlie’s love story centers on weddings because it was after another friend’s wedding in Greece when Charlie proposed! He kept the ring secret during the whole trip and popped the big question in Crete, where they spent the rest of the day beach hopping!  

They decided to have a Hawaii Elopement after COVID put a wrench in their 300-person celebration plans. After talking it through with family, they decided an elopement would be the perfect silver lining. Kristina says the plan allowed them to “Keep it simple and stress-free and have it be really special and magical in its own way!  We plan to have a larger celebration with our family and friends back on the East Coast down the road when large gatherings and parties are a possibility and fun again!”

We think this is a fantastic way to get the best of both worlds! Keep scrolling for more of this lovely couple and their incredible day! 

Congratulations, Kristina and Charlie! You’re an amazing couple and a joy to work with! We wish you all the happiness in the years ahead!

Francisca and Knight’s Maui Micro Wedding on Gannon’s grassy knoll was flooded with tropical goodness and plenty of celebratory vibes. With bursts of Hawaiian ginger and protea, and with the sweeping views of the ocean in the backdrop, this was nothing short of a wedding in paradise. 

The Maui Micro Wedding

From the moment Francisca first stepped onto the venue, Knight’s eyes locked onto her and never left. And it’s easy to see why. Wearing a satin gown with a princess cut flair and a delicate up-do framed with a demi-train, Francisca is captivating. To complement the love of his life’s look, Knight sported the modern version of shining armor, a linen suit of tan with elements of dusky blue. We could not get enough of the sweet moments shared between these two. 

Following the big moment, we gathered the guests for group shots then made our way down to the oceanfront for some of the most dreamy couple’s portraits in front of the setting sun. 

Our Couple’s Story

Francisca works for a healthcare organization called Mercy, and Knight works in logistics for JB Hunt. Due to the pandemic, they’re both working from home and keeping their two furbabies company. Francisca and Knight spend most of their free time with their adorable pups, but when it’s football season, you can catch them cheering on the LSU Tigers! “Geaux” Tigers!

Francisca and Knight met during a time when they both worked at Mercy. After Knight left, they stayed in touch, and eventually, their friendship blossomed into a true and honest love. The rest of the story is right here on our blog! 

Mahalo nui loa, Francisca and Knight, for trusting us with your Maui Micro Wedding. We had a wonderful time getting to know you, and we wish you all the joy and love in the years ahead.

Meghan and Dustin’s Wedding in Maui featured the peaceful views of Maui’s south shore and the evergreen love of a radiant couple. Set on Gannon’s ceremony lawn, guests were treated to the beautiful colors of the island and a cool, mountain breeze. Surrounded by beauty and with such a sweet love story to celebrate, it wasn’t just the Maui sun that brought the sunshine! 

The Wedding in Maui

From the moment Meghan walked in, arm-in-arm with her father, we knew this was going to be an extra special wedding in Maui. Dustin’s face lit up and the crowd’s energy became tangible. After delaying the wedding due to the pandemic, everyone on the grass that afternoon was excited to see the wonderful day finally arrive.

Looking simply breathtaking, Meghan wore a gown by Martina Liana with a show-stopping train fit for a cathedral. We loved her loosely plaited up-do and fresh-faced look. Together her style perfectly blended the contemporary splash of a tropical wedding with the sophisticated glam of a traditional venue. The best part? All those sweet moments shared with her brand new husband! From tender glances to belly laughter, these two fit together in all the right ways. 

Our Couple’s Story

Meghan and Dustin met in 2014 on a blind date. A mutual friend of theirs recognized the potential and would not stop insisting they met (and a good thing, too!). Finally, Meghan and Dustin gave in and agreed on a single date. Dustin planned the special day and met Meghan at the location with a single white rose in hand. They spent the rest of the date rafting down a local river. How sweet is that?! Turns out the river led to love! 

Together, Meghan and Dustin enjoy doing all things outdoorsy. From snow machining to jet-skiing, these two love an adventure! And now here they are, taking the next step on the biggest adventure of all! Keep scrolling for more of this sweet couple and their beautiful wedding in Maui.  

Mahalo nui loa, Meghan and Dustin, for trusting us with your wedding in Maui. It was a joy working with you, and we wish you only the best in the years ahead.

Rhiannon and Matthew’s Maui Destination Wedding was enveloped by the glistening ocean backdrop and the cheerful love of family and friends. Set on the lush green lawn of the 5 Palms in Kihei with the island of Kahoʻolawe on the horizon, there was plenty to celebrate during this spectacular Big Day. 

The Maui Destination Wedding

We began our session with getting ready footage of Rhiannon and her bridal crew. We were loving the exciting vibes and the encouraging energy of her girls! Rhiannon was the queen of the day, and she was glowing from the inside out. 

As the big moment drew near, Matthew awaited the love of his life under the bamboo arch on the venue. His smile spoke volumes: this is the day he’s been waiting for! Soon Rhiannon graced the aisle and the crowd grew silent. Wearing a sweetheart neckline dress with lace demi-gloves, she is absolutely beautiful. 

We love her simple pearl necklace–and we love the story that goes with it! One day in California, Matthew opened a clamshell, and there it was–the perfect pearl! We like to think it’s a fitting metaphor for our couple’s love story. 

Following the beautiful ceremony, it was time for group shots and gorgeous couple’s photos against the Maui backdrop. Keep scrolling for more of this spectacular Maui Destination Wedding!

Simple, elegant, and bursting with love, Brittany and Daniel’s Maui Beach Wedding was nothing short of dreamy! Po’olenelena Beach set the stage with golden sands and a lava rock outcropping complete with splashes of tropical greenery. This Big Day had all the smiles and love a couple could ask for!

The Maui Beach Wedding

Led in by her father, Brittany was the embodiment of a glowing bride. Her happiness radiated from within and only added to her brilliance. Wearing a boho-inspired gown with an hourglass silhouette and geometric designs, Brittany is take-your-breath-away beautiful. We love how her flower crown adds the perfect amount of tropical pop while complementing the rustic Hawaiian bouquet. 

Sam, a close friend of Brittany and Daniel, officiated the ceremony with wise words, personal insights, and just the right amount of humor. It was a joy to witness Brittany and Daniel share their Maui Beach Wedding with their closest loved ones. 

Our Couple’s Story

Dan is an AI product manager and works in the e-commerce space, and Brittany is an interior designer, and full-time dog mom. Together, the two love doing all things outdoorsy. As Brittany says, “Hike, rock climb, ski… you name it!”

Dan even supped up a van for them to use so they could explore all over the US this year! The bride said, “It was an amazing experience to share together and grow as a couple.” Once they were engaged, they sold the van to begin the process of buying their first home in Salt Lake City! 

Brittany and Daniel met on a dating app, and during their first hangout, they talked for four hours …straight! It was like finding a missing friend, an instant connection. One special winter, they embarked on their favorite activities, skiing in the mountains. The engagement took place in Steamboat Springs, right there in the snow!

And now Brittany and Daniel are tying the knot in the warm tropical sand! Keep scrolling for more of this sweet couple! 

Mahalo nui loa, Brittany and Daniel, for trusting us with your Maui Beach Wedding. It was a joy getting to know you both, and we wish you all the happiness in the years ahead.

Khaye and Rupert’s Hawaii Beach Wedding took place on the shores of Maluaka with a handful of loved ones watching on. The day was lightly overcast with calm tradewinds and a gentle ocean backdrop. With love all around, Khaye and Rupert took the steps to become husband and wife. 

The Hawaii Beach Wedding

Khaye stepped onto the shore with a bouquet of Hawaiian blooms and a genuine look of love and affection. Wearing a form-fitting gown with floral applique and side accent cut-outs, Khaye is absolutely radiant. We love how the carefully plaited low bun highlights her neckline and frames her face.

When he laid eyes on her, Rupert broke into the sweetest smile. It was clear that these two were turning their dreams into reality.

Looking like a man living the dream, Rupert brings his own splash of style to the shore. We are so here for that scroll-patterned tie! But the most show-stopping elements at their Hawaii Beach Wedding were the sweet expressions flooded with love and gratitude.   

Our Couple’s Story

Khaye and Rupert met in the Philippines through a mutual friend. When they realized they had permanently moved to the US, they continued to keep in contact. After a friend-based trip to Oahu and five amazing days on the island, Rupert knew Khaye was special and he began contacting her more frequently. Soon, it was nothing but love! 

After dating for six years, they planned a vacation to Cancun for Khaye’s birthday. But Rupert had more than just cake in mind. When the moment was right, he asked Khaye to make him the luckiest person on the planet! The rest of their story is right here in the blog! 

Congratulations, Khaye and Rupert! It was a pleasure working with you, and we wish you all the very best in the years ahead!

Lindsay and Ryan were married on Gannon’s Ceremony Knoll, overlooking the panoramic view of Maui’s south shore. The day was vibrant and the air was filled with the faint scent of roses and the salty breeze from the ocean. This Maui Venue Wedding perfectly blended classic contemporary with warm tropical touches. 

The Maui Venue Wedding

The moment Ryan turned and saw his beautiful bride was pure magic. Wearing a strapless button-down gown with a floral overlay and Hollywood-worthy waves, Lindsay is absolutely stunning. Ryan’s smile says it all: not only is she radiant, but she’s also the love of his life.

Following their touching vows in front of the rustic driftwood arch, Lindsay and Ryan cemented their union with a kiss worth celebrating! Then it was time for group shots and a quick drive to the shore for beach portraits against the sunset! 

Our Couple’s Story

Lindsay works at a high school district doing accounting, and Ryan is a foreman for a glazing glass company. Their love story began on Bumble. When they met up face-to-face, there was an instant deep connection and Lindsay knew he was the one. During their first date in Claremont, Lindsay says their eyes met and they were like “wow”! When you know, you know! 

They spent nearly every day together since that wow moment. Ryan proposed in Redlands under Umbrella Street and they celebrated with oysters and drinks. It was a simple day, the best kind of engagement. Together they have one furbaby, although she’s not so much of a baby anymore! Bella is thirteen and Lindsay has had her since she was a puppy.

While Bella wasn’t able to join, we have a feeling she was putting on the cutest doggy-grin for her mom and dad’s Maui Venue Wedding! Keep scrolling for more of our beautiful couple! 

Congratulations, Lindsay & Ryan! Your wedding day was absolutely stunning! We had a joy helping your dreams come true, and we wish you only the best in the decades ahead!
