Maui Venue Weddings

Our friends at Salon 253 Bride approached us to collaborate on a Maui wedding inspiration shoot for 2023, we naturally said yes! They wanted our help finding a gorgeous location to shoot and we thought what better place than our newest venue wedding offering, Andaz Resort in Wailea! If you’re dreaming of a private, oceanfront setting for your upcoming nuptials, this gorgeous setting is sure to steal your heart! The salty ocean breeze, magnificent Kiawe trees, lush foliage…what’s not to love?

Besides the fantastic bridal hair and makeup by Salon 253 Bride, we partnered with our talented friends at Karma Hill Photography, Colie Marie Design Co, and Kiawe Outdoor for a bohemian-styled shoot to showcase the beauty of this stunning venue and some popular wedding trends in decor and hair and makeup for 2023!

Maui Wedding Venue – Andaz Wailea

This luxurious and private venue is situated right in the center of Wailea, on Maui’s Southwest Shore. This area, in general, is known for its spectacular sunsets and breathtaking views, home to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island! And what we love most about the Andaz Wailea as a wedding venue is the resort’s stunning beachside lawns. Lawns, Laule’a 1 or Laule’a 3, are surrounded by the natural splendor of the ocean and lush tropical greenery.

Both are stunning options for a Maui venue wedding! Laule’a 1 offers broad ocean vistas and swaying palm trees, creating a tropical and intimate setting. Laule’a 3 features a majestic, old-growth Kiawe tree that creates a distinctive and visually stunning backdrop. With both venues, couples have flexibility with their décor and design. Andaz graciously provides wood cross-back chairs for each ceremony and a sheltered area just in case the weather isn’t as pleasant!

(Laule’a 3 is featured)

Room Blocks & Reception Options

Not only does this venue offer two beautiful locations for an intimate, private ceremony, but the resort offers the option to block rooms off for you and your guests for convenience and simplicity. This makes your wedding experience far more enjoyable without the hassle of traveling throughout the day. We’re all about making your wedding day simpler! You can arrange a room block directly through the resort or via our preferred agent.

What’s even more convenient is after your vows, you can celebrate in style with your guests with a reception in one of the resort’s elegant private rooms or fine restaurants. Andaz‘s hospitable team will happily accommodate to your needs with a wide range of delicious culinary delights and local specialties.

Styling Experts – Vendors Creating The Magic

Bringing all the elements together for this styled shoot was so much fun – from the stunning setting to the little details of the day. The bohemian details with a touch of tropical flair were present throughout the shoot, which felt fresh and unique!

Hair and Make + Floral

Salon 253 Bride worked their magic again with our bride’s beautiful plaited hair! Her makeup was done meticulously by the talented team at Salon 253 with a soft natural look. Her long golden tresses paired with a lovely haku flower crown by florist Colie Marie Design Co was the perfect style for this tropical bohemian shoot. Our bride’s tulle gown reflected the beachy atmosphere, hinting at the white frothy waves just beyond the lawn… What an excellent collaboration to bring out the bride’s beauty.

Decor Specialists

Thanks to Colie Marie Design Co for the beautiful tropical bouquet and amazing chair arrangement. The flowers looked so vibrant and the colors were perfect for an outdoor Maui wedding inspiration shoot.

Kiawe Outdoor created the perfect lavish weddinging setup. Peacock chairs, plush bohemian decor, feathers, candles, and tropical blooms artfully set the tone for this spectacular aspirational shoot. With Hawaii’s lush scenery as our backdrop and gorgeous details, the outdoor venue was the perfect romantic escape for our couple.

Models

Thanks to our gorgeous models Chelsea and Cody who are actually newlyweds! You both looked relaxed under the magnificent Kiawe tree overlooking the beach. We are so lucky to have you both help create this beautiful wedding scene…with a sip of champagne, of course!

Andaz Wedding Photography Coverage

After relaxing at our luxe bohemian spread, our couple walked around the grounds for a few romantic sunset portraits against the ocean backdrop. Our highly skilled team of photographers at Karma Hill Photography will capture all the best elements (both natural and any decor) of the setting for each portrait, ensuring our couple’s Maui wedding photography is dynamic with flattering angles within the tropical splendor.

Unfortunately, we can’t guarantee there will be no passers-by or beachgoers on the public beach in front of the lawn, but thanks to our skilled photographers and the magic of our talented editing team, we ensure each photo will be just the two of you savoring the moment of your big day!

The beach is just a few steps from both of Andaz’s ceremony sites. When planning your ceremony our coordination team can ensure you have time in your photography timeline to add on beach photos. For this styled shoot, the photography team was focused on the ceremony location and all the fun details!

Huge mahalo to all our wonderful vendors and models who helped create this stunning Maui wedding inspiration shoot! It was a joy to see our vision come to life at our spectacular new wedding venue. We appreciate all that you do for our clients to make their dream Maui wedding a reality! May you have a successful new wedding season ahead!

We love to bring our couple’s wedding dreams to reality! Brett and Lance’s Maui venue wedding was the special day they had been dreaming of for quite some time. From the moment they got engaged, they knew that a destination wedding in Maui would be the perfect setting for their intimate celebration with close family and friends who were more than happy to travel to celebrate with them! It was an intimate and heartfelt occasion, full of love, laughter, and joy, as you’ll see in these highlights below!

Their lovely ceremony was held on Gannon’s grassy knoll beneath a beautiful circle greenery arch with a breathtaking view of the ocean as their backdrop – truly stunning! It looks like a scene out of a tropical dream, doesn’t it? It captured every bit of the tropical Hawaiian feeling that they hoped for…

Tropical Elegance Done Right – Maui Venue Wedding

After receiving many well wishes, it was time to bring the love to the beach! But, of course, their love of the beach is what drew them to Maui in the first place! So our newlyweds were more than happy to head down to Southside Beach for some additional intimate portraits. One thing that caught our eye was Brett’s delightful custom bouquet – full of vibrant tropical colors like coral, pink, and yellow, which matched her flower crown perfectly! And Lance looked so handsome in his plaid suit – blue is always such a great choice for a beach wedding!

The newlyweds basked in that “Just Maui’d” bliss as the sun set on their Maui venue wedding. These portraits’ lighting is so dreamy – from the pink pastel sky to the soft turquoise blue of the water. We love this beach for this very reason; the sunsets are magnificent! The breathtaking view of the ocean as their backdrop for the ceremony was just one feature that created an extra layer of romance to their newlywed portraits! A perfect ending to a perfect day…

Congratulations, Brett and Lance! We wish you the very best in the years ahead, full of love, joy, and aloha, of course! Until we see you again…

Oceanfront Celebration

Their intimate ceremony took place at the incredible venue, Merriman’s, in Kapalua, which is located right on the water’s edge. Our charming couple, who absolutely adore the surrounding area, couldn’t have chosen a better spot for their Maui venue wedding! The ocean views, blue skies, the salty breeze, and the stunning floral arch only added to the romantic charm of their special day….

Their beautiful photos came out so bright and vibrant since the ceremony was in the late morning when the lighting is a little harsher, but our sweet pair loved the bright sunshine and blue sky that is so characteristic of Hawaii!

After many hugs, kisses, and well wishes from their fun-loving families, our newlyweds walked onto the beach to take a few more intimate portraits with us. As they strolled hand-in-hand, it felt surreal to them to be celebrating their love in Maui! It was time to take their shoes off and let newlywed bliss begin!

Stephanie looks like a beach goddess with her long blonde tresses and flowing gown – simply stunning! Her handsome new husband Jeff’s blue suit picked up the gorgeous ocean blues of the tropical setting that hit every right style note in our book!

Janikka and Rainier fell so much in love with Maui when they visited several years ago that when it came to planning their marriage, it was the first place that came to their minds! Not only did they recently celebrate their Maui venue wedding, but they spent their beautiful honeymoon here right after!

A funny thing happened when they went to a luau when they were just dating – the lady at the front desk thought they were married, and they said, “no, we’re just dating,” and she replied, “well, you better do something about that!” Clearly, she could tell how much in love they were…we like to think fate had a hand it their union! Keep reading to see how their dream day unfolded!

It Had To Be Maui

Our couple’s Maui venue wedding was an absolute dream come true! After six years of dating, they knew that Maui was the perfect place to say “I do”. Their ceremony took place on the grassy knoll at Gannon’s, surrounded by lush greenery and stunning views of the ocean. The weather cooperated perfectly, providing a beautiful sunny day for this special occasion.

Janikka looked absolutely breathtaking in her modern white gown, while Rainier looked sharp in his suit. Their love for each other was palpable throughout the entire ceremony as they exchanged vows and shared their first kiss as husband and wife! Who could have guessed after their first visit all those years ago they would tie the knot in Maui? Their friends and family were more than happy to make the big trip to celebrate their Maui venue wedding as you can see by the joy in their smiles…

Off Into The Sunset

After the happy cheers and a few happy tears, we went down to Southside Beach to capture our happy newlyweds’ first moments as husband and wife. It felt utterly surreal for both since they only played at a Maui venue wedding after their first trip here! But it couldn’t have been a more perfect decision.

It’s clear in these beautiful portraits that this couple had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and now that it had finally arrived, they were savoring every second of it. Their love radiated from every photo – a true testament to the power of love and commitment.

These sunset newlywed portraits will undoubtedly become treasured memories for Janikka and Rainier as they look back on their special day in years to come! It’s moments like these that remind us all of the beauty of true love. After their newlywed beach portraits, they were ready to celebrate with their awaiting friends and family at their intimate reception!

Congratulations, Janikka and Rainier! We wish them all the best as they embark on this new chapter in their lives together – may their love only continue to grow stronger with each passing day!

We recently had the pleasure of coordinating our first-ever wedding for our wonderful couple, Kathryn and Joseph, at the stunning venue, Andaz Resort in Wailea! Their Maui venue wedding was absolutely perfect, down to every little detail, from the tropical floral sconces to the old-growth Kiawe tree that majestically sheltered our happy couple. It was a joy to coordinate this special day for our newlyweds. And it is also just as memorable for our Simple Maui Wedding team too! Curious to see more of this stunning venue of the couple’s big day? Keep reading!

To start their intimate ceremony, their friends and family gathered under the magnificent Kiawe tree on the Laule’a 3 Lawn, just one of two gorgeous oceanfront lawns offered in our Andaz Resort Wedding Package. Kathyrn and Joseph hail from Tacoma, Washington, so you can imagine they were delighted to bask in the sunshine and tropical temperatures in mid-February! The gorgeous scenery and tropical flower sconces provided all the natural decor in the simple, elegant style they hoped for…

Since our charming pair visited Maui for the first time last year, they fell in love with the island and knew they wanted to return and get married here! So they were beyond happy to exchange their vows in our newest venue location in paradise, making it feel even more special for everyone. It was fun, carefree, romantic, and relaxed…just how they wanted their Maui venue wedding to feel!

More Than A Dream

After their beautiful ceremony, we were excited to photograph our newlyweds in the gorgeous spots this tropical oceanfront venue offers! Since Joseph and Kathryn are nature lovers, we captured several stunning portraits with their friends and family under the towering tree and the surrounding tropical foliage. This is the perfect spot for a couple wanting privacy yet being outdoors in a natural oceanfront setting without the beach crowds…

The Best Of Both Worlds

Another fantastic and dramatic setting for newlywed portraits is the striking entrance of the resort. It’s bold and minimalistic, making it a beautiful contrast to the portraits taken in the lush natural surroundings outside.

Naturally, our newlyweds wanted to head down to Mokapu Beach in front of the resort for some more intimate portraits. After all, when in Hawaii…! This beach is truly stunning because it has a variety of backgrounds for stunning photos, such as lava rocks, turquoise waters, and palm trees… And maybe a turtle or two! The natural beauty and marine life of Maui are what Kathyrn and Joseph love so much!

A Touch Of The Tropics

We love the tropical flair of their attire! Especially Joseph’s bright aloha shirt and Kathryn’s gorgeous tropical bouquet against her sparkly gown. Relaxed yet refined with a touch of aloha – a perfect choice for a Maui wedding!

With easy access to the beach, tropical scenery, and a private ceremony location, our Andaz Resort Package is truly the best of both worlds! Our newlyweds had an unforgettable wedding day which surely their guests are still talking about!

Congratulations, Kathryn and Joseph! Mahalo for your open and easy-going attitude and for choosing Simple Maui Wedding! It was our pleasure to coordinate your big day! We hope to see you again soon!

Destination Wedding Bliss

Since our lovely pair have never been to Hawaii, the tropical setting of Rustic Hawaiian Ruins at Trinity-By The-Sea was perfect for their intimate ceremony.

As our happy couple recalled, “We have always wanted to come to Hawaii and could not think of a better way to celebrate our wedding than to come and experience it there for the first time with our friends and family!” We couldn’t agree more!

Our happy newlyweds wanted to savor every moment of their Maui venue wedding by taking a few portraits by the water’s edge. After all, when in Hawaii, is there any better place to take the first steps as husband and wife? Their love and devotion for each other were palpable as we snapped away.

Jacinda looked radiant in her flowy beach gown that fluttered in the breeze. Her tousled locks and tropical blooms were perfect for their simple yet elegant celebration! Alex’s little touch of tropical green in his bowtie complemented her gorgeous bouquet beautifully…

Many of our couples meet organically through mutual friends, and that’s precisely how these two lovebirds met! Emma and Grant’s Maui destination wedding is a beautiful and elegant affair, a day they dreamed of for so long! Magic was in the air when our couple first met; they spent the whole evening chatting away and ended up closing the restaurant! But, of course, those sparks were just the beginning of their romance. Keep reading to see how their beautiful day unfolded!

We Knew It Had To Be Maui

Joined by a few close friends and family who traveled to their Maui destination wedding, their wedding ceremony was quiet and intimate. But no less gorgeous with the tropical florals and arch! The verdant and scenic setting at Gannon’s provided privacy for our sweet couple to exchange their endearing vows…

Grant and Emma visited Maui together in November of 2021 and immediately fell in love with the island. So when thinking of a place to have their destination wedding, they knew it had to be in Maui!

When planning their Maui destination wedding, our happy newlyweds wanted something elegant, simple, and intimate. So, we were thrilled and honored to help create that dream come true because that’s what we do best at Simple Maui Wedding!

After their lovely ceremony, we wanted to capture just a few portraits of the happy newlyweds with the lush and green scenery. They couldn’t look happier! The way they look and embrace each other says it all… The only one missing in these portraits was their precious pup Presley who is the light of their lives! (And also had a paw in their engagement story too!)

Emma knows how to do elegance right with her deep V gown and stunning white and green bouquet. It looks so pure and classic, contrasting with the grassy lawn in the distance. We are so lucky to have the most gorgeous brides at Simple Maui Wedding! And so is Grant! 😉 who looks so handsome in his navy and black lapel suit…

We wish warm and happy congratulations to Emma and Grant! We are beyond happy for you both! It was our pleasure to coordinate your Maui destination wedding! May you have all the love and happiness in the decades ahead…

“We really are the ying and yang,” our charming couple Jacqie and Daniel said before their Maui venue wedding. Our easygoing couple, relaxed and colorful affair, turned out to be a splendid day despite the rain showers. Thanks to our nimble wedding coordinators, we turned the rain into rainbows so to speak! It was our pleasure to make their dream wedding come true…

Our sweet couple hail from the Pacific Northwest, and they fell in love with Maui when they visited in 2020 and knew they had to return one day. Jacqie also used to be a Hawaiian dancer growing up, and they really connect to the island’s culture. So now here they are tying the knot at their Maui venue wedding!

But first, the first look! The smile on Daniel’s face when he saw Jacqie for the first time was priceless! She looks like a tropical goddess with her vibrant bouquet and haku flower crown…

Our Best Day Ever

Their tropical ceremony was held at Gannon’s, and thankfully the rain held off for their sacred vows! It was intimate, simple, and beautiful, exactly what they hoped for…and they were surrounded by their close friends and family who were so happy to witness their big day! These two have been together for nine years, full of love and growth, so you can imagine they are ready to begin their next adventure!

Now it was time to celebrate! With a burst of bubbles, no less! It was a fun and lighthearted touch that captured their bubbly and adventurous personalities! Is there anything more cheerful than a cloud of bubbles?! Their Maui venue wedding perfectly encapsulated their new start for their next chapter…

Before continuing their celebration, we took a walk down to Southside Beach to catch the sunset! And they had the most colorful and beautiful sunsets, as you’ll see! The rain had dissipated and unveiled a colorful and glorious sky as if in honor of our dear couples’ big day…

Congratulations Jacqie and Daniel! Mahalo for being so flexible with the weather! It was our pleasure to coordinate your big day and make your dream wedding come true!

Who doesn’t love a good love story? Melissa and Nick reconnected after years apart and fell madly in love! So we were delighted to coordinate their Maui venue wedding, a beautiful and intimate celebration filled with love and happiness. These two sweethearts have known each other since they were kids, growing up in the same town and attending the same high school. They even dated briefly as teenagers, but life took them in different directions. Finally, fate brought them back together, and now they are officially “Just Maui’d!”

When planning their Maui venue wedding, Melissa and Nick wanted something small and intimate. They wished to celebrate their love with their closest friends and family, and they wanted to exchange their vows in a special place. For Melissa, that place was Maui, Hawaii! She has always been fond of the islands and their beautiful beaches… it was the perfect setting for their rustic and casual celebration!

Our lovely couple chose to have their wedding at Merriman’s Kapalua, right by the water’s edge! The venue was the perfect choice for their intimate celebration, with its stunning views of the ocean and its laid-back ambiance. As you can see, their friends and family were so excited for them!

Melissa is quite literally swept off her feet! Oh, how we love, true love! Their newlywed portraits by the ocean’s edge are so romantic, full of adoration and devotion. The gorgeous sunset that illuminated the sky was the cherry on top of their Maui venue wedding celebration… They are ready to begin the next chapter of their lives together; what could be a better send-off than a Maui sunset!?

Congratulations, Melissa and Nick! We wish you every happiness as husband and wife! Fate certainly had a hand in your reconnection! Until we meet again…
