Fairytale In The Making – Jennifer & John’s Maui Venue Wedding

If fairy tales had ocean views and island breezes, Jennifer and John’s Maui venue wedding at Wailea Beach Resort would be the final chapter.

These two lovebirds live in sunny southern Oregon (Medford, to be exact), but their hearts? Forever belong to the ocean. The sun, sand, and saltwater are kind of their thing. So when it came time to say “I do,” there was no question—Maui was the place.

Let’s rewind to Halloween—Jen was dressed as Cinderella at her orthodontic office (which, yes, she co-owns with her now-husband, John the periodontist). A man in a suit delivered a single glass slipper. Then a chauffeur showed up, announcing it was time to find her prince.

And then? Well, just a transformed home into a full-blown dreamland—white roses, chandeliers, butterflies, a literal red carpet, and John in a tux waiting to propose. How romantic!?

That fairytale continued in paradise as you’ll see below!

A Blended Family, A Beachside Beginning

Jennifer and John’s wedding at Wailea Beach Resort was stunning, sun-kissed, and full of love. With their beautifully blended family—seven kids between them!—they celebrated not just their marriage, but the union of everyone they love most.

The day was filled with tropical elegance, laughter, tears (the happy kind), and the kind of joy that radiates in every photo. The waves crashed softly, the palm trees swayed, and John’s words rang true—Jen really is his ocean and sunshine.

Jennifer and John didn’t just bring their love to Maui—they brought their entire story. All of their friends and family were there to celebrate them and the deep, shared love for ocean air and warm sunshine was everything.

So when it came time to step in front of the camera, the magic was already there.

And wow, did it show.

Every photo from their day radiated emotion—from the tender, quiet moments between just the two of them, to the joyful energy of their family joining in celebration. You can feel the connection in every shot: the way John looks at Jen like she’s his entire world, the way she lights up with that sunshine laugh of hers. It’s honest, heartfelt, and full of that dreamy Maui glow.

Golden Hour + Ocean Views = Pure Magic

The beach delivered a backdrop that was almost too perfect (like, is this even real life?). The ocean was the postcard backdrop like a watercolor painting. And as the sun dipped lower, the sky opened in the most beautiful way with all the feels in the pastel colors.

Their photos were a mix of timeless elegance and candid joy—romantic, natural, and stunning in every way. These weren’t just wedding photos—they were priceless moments. And they’ll tell the story of this day forever.

Congratulations, Jennifer & John!

It was such an honor to capture your love in paradise. Your Maui venue wedding was a dream from beginning to end—and we hope you relive every laugh, every kiss, and every sunlit second every time you look through your gallery.
