Introducing – The Outrigger Ka’anapali Beach Resort Wedding Package

Hey lovebirds! We’re beyond excited to introduce our brand-new wedding package at one of the most iconic Maui wedding venues—the Outrigger Kaʻanapali Beach Resort! Imagine saying “I do” with the breathtaking view of the legendary Pu’u Keka’a (Black Rock) at Kaʻanapali as your backdrop. This lively, beachfront wedding venue in west Maui is perfect for couples looking for a relaxed-yet-stunning ceremony setting with up to 40 seated guests—or 50 if some of them don’t mind standing (looking at you, bridal party).

Bonus perk: Our team can also assist with setting up room blocks of 10 or more rooms, so your guests can stay right where the celebration happens—and we’ll make sure you get the best rates and resort perks available. No late-night shuttle buses or car wrangling needed—just good vibes and aloha.

The property itself? Utter paradise. You’ve got ground-floor rooms with private lanais, a whale-shaped pool (yes, really), and on-site dining options, including Maui Brewing Co.—aka the perfect spot for a post-ceremony celebration as the sun fades into the Pacific. Whether you’re craving laid-back luxury or an immersive cultural experience, this Maui wedding venue delivers it all.

Our Outrigger Ka’anapali Styled Shoot

Our styled shoot at Outrigger Ka’anapali Beach Resort wedding venue kicked off with our bride getting ready in one of their newly remodeled rooms, adorned in tranquil ocean-inspired tones — the perfect setting to start the day!. Talk about setting the mood! The beautiful bridal attire was provided by Maui’s Best bridal shop Elly’s Formal Wear, they have the best staff and a gorgeous selection of dresses and suits.

Can we take a moment for our bride Kim?!
Not only is she drop-dead stunning (I mean, come on), but she’s also a total powerhouse—model, beauty queen, mom of four AND part of the magic-making team at Salon 253 Bride.

She did her own flawless makeup and had her beachy waves styled by none other than Adiel, the salon’s incredible founder.

Now, let’s talk about the vibe—because it’s good. Like, really good.

You might already know and love the Outrigger Kaʻanapali Beach Resort… even if you didn’t realize it. That’s because this gem was formerly the beloved Kaʻanapali Beach Hotel, affectionately known as “Maui’s Most Hawaiian Hotel.” And while it’s had a bit of a glow-up under new ownership, don’t worry—the heart and soul of the place is still gloriously Hawaiian. And that’s what makes it such a standout among wedding venues Maui has to offer—it’s not just pretty (though it really, really is); it’s meaningful.

Outrigger didn’t just change the name and call it a day. They’ve made a real commitment to preserving Hawaiian culture by offering complimentary classes like hula dancing, lei making, and ʻukulele strumming, all led by local cultural practitioners who are just as warm as the Maui sun. It’s this kind of authenticity that truly sets the resort apart from other Maui wedding venues.

Even better? Outrigger’s care for the islands goes deeper than cultural preservation. Part of their mission is to give back to the land itself—and we’re honored to support that. So, for every couple who books this package, we’ll be donating $100 to Aloha Puʻukukui Watershed Preserve, a nonprofit that works to restore native forests and protect the island’s watershed. Because caring for the land means we can all continue to enjoy the beauty of Hawaiʻi—and make sure there’s enough water to go around for generations to come.

The ceremony featured a gorgeous bamboo arch bursting with vibrant pink and orange blooms, thanks to our floral magicians at Dellables. We brought in the feel of the islands with natural woven baskets brimming with colorful flowers and romantic candles.

One of the West Side’s Best Beachfront Venues

The ceremony spot here offers seriously stunning oceanfront vibes—it’s about as close as you can get to saying “I do” with your toes in the sand at this iconic beach.

While actual beach weddings aren’t allowed here (thanks to state permitting rules—we know, womp womp), this venue location in Maui gives you all the beauty without breaking any laws. Win-win!

And get this: our officiant Charles Nahale wasn’t just all talk—he kept the crowd entertained with live music that made everything feel instantly joyful.

We got a little of everything that day—sunshine, soft rain, and yes, full-on rainbows.

Post-ceremony, we wandered through the lush, tropical grounds to snap portraits under towering palms and old growth trees.

And while we couldn’t follow the couple down to the beach (due to permit laws—we’re nothing if not rule-followers), they took a romantic stroll along the shoreline with pastel skies above them while our photographers stayed on the resort grounds with a zoom lens and captured the Kaanapali sunset vibe.

Now This Is How You Wrap Up A Wedding Day...

Picture this: your couples’ photos ending with the iconic Puʻu Kekaʻa (Black Rock) behind you, golden light spilling over the ocean… and then you’re off, hand-in-hand, strolling toward a lively dinner at Maui Brew Co.—where, by the way, there’s complimentary live music every night.

Epic views, good food, great vibes—yes, please.

No need to say goodbye to your gorgeous florals just yet.
Your ceremony flowers can totally come along for the ride! Instead of leaving all that beauty behind, our coordinators can clip down your florals and repurpose them for your dinner tables—instant decor upgrade, zero waste.

Pretty, practical, and just plain smart.
