Maui Venue Weddings

Our happy couple took a vacation together to Maui in August of 2021, and it was on this trip that Morgan proposed to Audrey! (We also had the honor to capture their proposal back in 2021!) The two of them have always loved being around the water and, in Morgan’s words, “If it doesn’t have a beach, it’s not a real vacation!” So, when they visited Maui, they immediately fell in love with the island’s way of life and knew they wanted a Maui destination wedding! Keep reading to see how their dream wedding unfolded!

Our beautiful pair, originally from Texas, knew they wanted to have a destination wedding when they began their initial planning. And a Maui one is even better! Their friends and family, naturally, were so excited to make the trip (vacation!) and be able to share their Maui destination wedding with them. And they were not disappointed!

Their gorgeous wedding took place at Merriman’s Kapalua, right by the water. This location is ideal if you want the best of both worlds – picturesque views by the water and ceremony seating! However, what was most eye-catching during their ceremony was the stunning driftwood arch with tropical blooms…

As you can see, many made the journey for their Maui destination wedding! There’s nothing quite like celebrating with those you love most on your big day…and what a colorful bunch too! The vibrant and tropical colors were so fun to photograph!

More Than A Dream Wedding

Their first newlywed’s portraits were breathtaking as the sun slowly dimmed on the horizon. Audrey’s glittery, embroidered gown sparkled in the sunlight! And Morgan’s floral suit was also eye-catching and refreshing! Who can say no to a floral suit!?

These two were completely entranced in the moment’s magic, as you can see in these intimate portraits. The sound of the waves in the distance and the sun’s glow shining down on them added to Maui’s magical touch in their romantic love story!

We feel really privileged to have been a part of your love story, from the very first proposal photographs we took to coordinating your wedding! We hope you come visit again soon!

The peaches, pinks, corals, and lemon were the perfect tropical confection that suited Bianca’s bouquet beautifully! Our sweet newlyweds’ Maui venue wedding had the fun, colorful flair of the Hawaiian islands, which made it a joy to photograph…

The venue for their Maui wedding was the grassy knoll at Gannon’s in Kihei. We love this location because it has panoramic ocean views that add to the Hawaiian ambiance! With the tropical arch, swaying palm trees, and ocean views these two had it all!

Showered with heartfelt congratulations and a few tears, we wanted to capture a few portraits of our tropical bride Bianca. She looked exquisite in her creamy, flowy gown! Oveld is one lucky guy!

Oveld’s dusky purple-hued three-piece suit matched the sunset that followed too! We love it when our grooms are bold in their color choices!

Next, we wandered down to the beach for a few intimate newlywed portraits! Southside Beach was a fantastic spot for these private first moments as newlyweds. The sunset was stunning! These two looked so blissfully happy in the photos…

There was a magnetic feeling in the air that day! They were so captivated by each other and savored these quiet moments before joining their friends and family to celebrate!
