Erin & Jono met by chance back in 2016 at Baja Cantina where Erin was Jono’s waitress! It may have taken a few attempts to actually get Erin on board but eventually, she fell for him too! We feel so fortunate to have met this sweet pair and honored to be a part of their Maui elopement!

A shared love for cycling brought them together with many conversations (and challenges) to talk about. He biked to the restaurant they met at and Erin asked “Oh yeah, how far?” to which he replied “5 miles!” “Psh that’s nothing” she replied. “I bike 10 miles to and from here every day!” It was that moment Jono KNEW this was the girl for him! They have shared many biking trips together and moved across the country. Through all of their adventures, their love for each other has grown stronger each day.

There is absolutely nothing like a brides smile on her wedding day! Erin looked stunning and her smile and laughter says it all! We found ourselves smiling ear to ear as we were looking through the photos. Talk about contagious smile…. check out Erin and her all gorgeousness!!

Erin & Jono really enjoyed dancing on their wedding day! There was multiple times while we were photographing that their happiness just exuded from them so much that they bust a move!!!

Mahalo Erin & Jono for allowing us to be a part of your Maui elopement! You were such a joy to work with and we hope you find your way back to Maui sometime soon!

Narges & Taylor are a sweet couple, all the way from Wisconsin. They decided the intimacy of a Maui beach elopement was the best way to share their love! Kanaha is a gorgeous white sand beach perfect for Maui elopements. It’s quiet, beautiful, and the perfect spot for this ceremony on the beach.

Reverend Kuya officiated their wedding offering such a genuine and heartfelt ceremony. His words are so deep and meaningful and even shared in the dance at the end to celebrate. Scroll down to check it out the full Maui elopement!

Even though they eloped, Narges and Taylor still were able to have their friends and family participate by adding on our “virtually there” package. Their ceremony was live streamed for their loved ones to watch as it happened in real time, how special! It was also available to watch on demand a few hours after the ceremony for anyone who missed it 🙂

Although the beach was mostly empty, they still got some love from passing by paddlers cheering for the newlywed couple! We love it when everyone joins in on the celebration to wish the bride and groom congratulations! It really shares the love of the island and shows just how much Aloha people in Maui really have.

Mahalo Narges & Taylor for sharing your day with us! You were such a pleasure to work with and your elopement turned out gorgeous. We can’t wait to see you in Maui again for anniversary portraits!!

This right here is what love is all about!! Love finds its way into our lives in many different forms. For Megan & Kat it found its way within each other! They had been friends for some time before they began their relationship. Their bond grew and blossomed and they have been inseparable ever since. We are so grateful that through their journey, they found their way to us for an intimate Maui elopement.

Megan & Kat have a fur baby named Macy they absolutely adore!! It’s hard when your little fur baby can’t be here on your wedding day, but we do offer photoshopping services to give you a pic with your baby!! It may not look like they were actually there on the beach with you but it is a fun way to include them in the picture!

We adore the way the tropical flowers add a pop of color to Megan and Kat’s all white wedding attire.

When asked Megan & Kat what they are most looking forward to about being married they immediately said “starting and raising a family together.” We are looking forward to that too! Hopefully, you’ll bring that family back here to the spot you were wed for some Maui family portraits!! Our sister company Karma Hill Photography offers a return client discount for all our wedding clients, hint hint 😉

Mahalo Megan & Kat for including us in your Maui elopement! You were such a joy to meet and we look forward to meeting the whole in the years to come.

Robin & Chris’ story began 5 years ago before their gorgeous Maui beach elopement! Chris was driving through Colorado on his way home to Utah when he decided to hop on Tinder and start swiping! Robin happened to be on Tinder as well and they both swiped right! They didn’t actually meet that day but it did connect them to begin chatting! They talked for about 3 months before Chris made the drive back to Colorado to meet Robin. They met for a breakfast date, which turned into an all-day date, and Chris never left! Just kidding! He left that day, but it wasn’t long before he headed back down to Colorado permanently. The long-distance thing just wasn’t for them! They just knew their happily every after was together in Colorado.

We love sweet love stories like Robin & Chris’. It warms our hearts to know that we are a part of that journey now. A Maui beach elopement was the perfect setting for these two. They were able to focus on each other, the love they share, the life they are building; and who wouldn’t want to do that with their toes in the sand? Sounds pretty perfect to us!

Ironwoods Beach was quiet and serene this particular evening. There was a light layer of clouds that ended up drizzling on us during the ceremony. Afterward the ceremony the rain lightened and we saw a little rainbow making its presence. We did catch a little more rain while we were shooting on the cliffs but you know what they say about rain on your wedding day… it’s definitely good luck!!

Thank you so much Robin and Chris for choosing us to coordinate your Maui beach elopement! We wish you many more years of love and happiness!

Agi & Jimmy are a sweet couple from Illinois that we had the pleasure of meeting last week! They decided on a Maui beach elopement after several other wedding plan options over the past year. They met on Match.com about 3 years ago and have been inseparable ever since. Their very first date was meeting up for drinks at a local bar. Many shared interests and dates later they decided to tie the knot! What an honor it is that they chose us to be a part of it!

Agi & Jimmy’s road to the wedding wasn’t ALL fun and games of course. I mean, we are in the middle of a pandemic! Just getting to Hawaii has its challenges. Once they got on island and started heading out to their hotel, they were halted in their tracks by the Olowalu brush fire. They ended up spending their first night on Maui sleeping in their car. Not exactly how they wanted to spend their first day of vacation. But good attitudes and a beautiful wedding to look forward to made it easier to bear. And hopefully, the hotel credited you for the first night! 😉

Just after their wedding ceremony, Jacob from Manutea Nui E offered a sweet serenade for Agi & Jimmy to dance to. What a special moment, first dance as husband and wife.

This elegant couple looked magnificent as the pastel sunset hues faded into the ocean.

This Pennsylvania couple is as sweet as they come! Not only were they a dream to work with while planning their beach elopement in Maui, but they also thoughtfully brought chocolate bars from their home state for their vendor team. Now that’s next-level sweetness!

Jennifer and Michael chose a morning ceremony for their Maui elopement ceremony. We love this option as it is typically cooler, the beaches are far less busy and then you have the whole day to enjoy together as a married couple! Elopements are all about breaking the rules and doing whatever you want, who says you have to go to dinner after your ceremony? Maybe a morning snorkel would be even more special!

Just look at how giddy these two are to get married, we just adore their chemistry.

Jennifer looked stunning in her Adrianna Papell illusion back dress from Madame Bridal in Boynton Beach Florida

Another great thing about an elopement? You can splash and have fun without worrying about heading to your reception dripping wet. We love that these two didn’t mind letting loose a bit and having fun on the beach. Plus, it’s refreshing after being in the sun! 🙂

Jennifer and Michael, Mahalo for choosing Simple Maui Wedding as your wedding team! We were honored to be a part of your day. We hope to see you back in Maui in the future!!

Shelby and William met the old fashion way at a bar in Seattle, where they both currently live. Shelby was celebrating a win with friends after a football game when William caught her eye. They hit it off right away and the rest is history. Today we celebrate their wedding in Maui!

When Shelby & William decided on a Maui vacation they did not share with their families that they would be also getting married. The true definition of a Maui elopement! They’ve been engaged for a few years now though so there may have been some suspicions amongst their crew. Anyhow, we love the element of surprise and surely their friends and family are excited to for them as they embark on this new adventure.

Small beach elopements don’t have to go without the traditional elements like a toast and cake cutting! The yummy cake and Martinelli’s sparkling cider are the perfect addition to your beach wedding in Maui.

Mahalo Shelby & William for choosing us as your Maui elopement coordinator! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

This sweet Brooklyn couple traveled long and far with many restrictions in place in order to make their dream Maui elopement a reality! Getting to Maui is no easy task with all our regulations but for anyone willing to put in the work, we are so thankful to have them! We feel blessed to have been a part of Stephanie & Murad’s Maui wedding!

Murad’s favorite band is Counting Crows and he always knew he’d love a girl who loves Counting Crows just as much as he does. When he came across a profile on OkCupid that listed her favorite band as Counting Crows he had to send Stephanie a message! He was so excited that he sent her a novel long message and somewhere in there asking what her favorite song was. She replied with 2 words “favorite song ?? ;)”  If it wasn’t for the winky face he would have thought it a lost cause! Obviously it wasn’t a lost cost, it was a means to a deeper connection. To think this is where they are today is pure joy!!

Stephanie and Murad shared sweet personal vows the expressed just how perfect of a match they are.  We adore their Vow Books and enjoyed every minute of their words to each other.

Our cake package offers a sweet treat on your wedding day while capturing the traditional ‘cake cutting’ pictures.

We are so honored to have been a part of your Maui elopement Stephanie & Murad! Thank you for making the long journey and celebrating with your toes in the sand!! We hope to see you in Maui again soon!

Come see another beautiful elopement by Simple Maui Wedding: https://simplemauiwedding.net/amanda-eric-maui-beach-elopement/

Kristen & Kevin are a laid back couple from the East coast! They decided on Maui beach elopement for their wedding. They knew Maui was the perfect combination of beautiful and adventurous and seemed perfect for a wedding/honeymoon combination. We couldn’t agree more and we are so happy they chose us to coordinate their Maui beach elopement!

On the day of the wedding, we encountered some rain at Ironwoods Beach, their original location choice. We could either get them married in the pouring rain, which really isn’t as bad as it sounds or chase the sunshine!! They chose sunshine.

In Hawaii you can have really bad weather at one spot and just 10 minutes down the road is a beautiful sunshiny day! That’s clear by the pictures below. You would never know that a storm loomed just a few miles away! Lahaina Shores beach turned out to be absolute perfection for their wedding day. Gorgeous blue sky, very little beachgoers, a stunning sunset, they couldn’t have asked for a better setting!

Kristen & Kevin met at a friends wedding. They had an instant connection and the rest is history. They are now 2 cats and a puppy connected and building a beautiful life together!

Kevin proposed to Kristen on a romantic trip to Savannah, Georgia for 4th of July last year. It’s clear that these two adore each other and have many more romantic trips ahead of them!

Congratulations on your Maui wedding Kristen & Kevin! Thank you for choosing us to be a part of it!

When Molly & Cody came to the harsh realization that a wedding back home with all of their family and friends couldn’t be possible for quite some time they decided on an elopement in Maui! They were going to be here for a vacation anyway so why not just seal the deal? We couldn’t agree more! There will be time for celebration with the whole gang in the years to come but don’t make love wait any longer!!

This sweet pair met back in college through mutual friends. They dated for about 6 years all the while knowing that they were each others forever! Cody proposed to Molly at a park in California that overlooked the ocean. It was intimate and romantic and Molly just knew she would be marrying the man of her dreams!

Reverend Kimo officiated their ceremony making them laugh and smile throughout. His ceremonies are so genuine and sweet but adding that moment of humor really makes them one of the best on Maui!

As Molly & Cody read their own personal vows to each other there wasn’t a dry eye on the beach.

Thank you so much Molly & Cody for choosing us for your Maui elopement. We enjoyed meeting you and hope to see you again in Maui soon!

Come see another beautiful elopement by Simple Maui Wedding: https://simplemauiwedding.net/amanda-eric-maui-beach-elopement/

Amanda & Eric had different wedding plans before Covid got in the way, but they made the most of it by eloping in beautiful Maui! They wore their traditional wedding outfits to their Maui beach elopement, looking classy and sheik. We just love their timeless style!

This beautiful couple was married on the shores of Ironwoods Beach, just the two of them. They still managed to share their special day with many friends and family near and far through a special video. Amanda & Eric chose a videography upgrade that allowed their ceremony to be uploaded for their family to watch within just a couple of hours. Although times prevent us from being with our loved ones, technology helps us find a way to share in those moments still.

Amanda was apprehensive about letting her train down at the beach, but we’re so glad she did because the affect of the train in the wind was absolutely beautiful. 

These cliffside wedding photos were breathtaking and they captured the most beautiful sunset filled with pastel hues.

For dinner this sweet pair whisked each other off to Merriman’s. We’re sure their day was special from start to finish and were so happy they chose us to be a part of it!

Mahalo Amanda & Eric for choosing Simple Maui Wedding for your Maui Beach Elopement. We wish you two many years of love and happiness!

So many times in life we find ourselves putting everyone else first. As parents, you naturally put your wants and sometimes needs on the back burner and put your children first. That’s why this Elopement in Maui was so special for Jasmin & Fred!

This beautiful couple has 3 children, one with special needs, and their lives 100% revolve around them! To make sure this wedding really focused on one another they decided the ceremony was going to be just about the two of them! Intimate, small, and something they can look back on together and know just how special it was!

Jasmin & Fred met on Match.com. They dated for 3 years before they got engaged. Their love for each other, their patience and kindness for one another, has never wavered and it’s clear in the way that they look at each other. These two are a perfect pair!!

Jasmin said she was most looking forwards to the wide open landscape shots with Maui’s beauty as a backdrop. It was en epic day of gorgeousness and we’re happy we could deliver!

Mahalo for choosing Simple Maui Wedding & Karma Hill Photography Jasmin & Fred! We look forward to meeting the kiddos on the next trip and hope we can capture some beautiful family portraits for you all!!
