Maui Venue Weddings

Jessica and Darin said “I do” with a Hawaii Venue Wedding at the 5 Palms in Wailea. Rain is a sacred blessing in Hawaii, and when it graces your wedding day, it’s said to represent a lush and strong marriage. The covered lanai at the 5 Palms served as a gorgeous indoor venue with bungalow-inspired architecture and a sweeping view of the Pacific Ocean. After Maui sent her blessing, the sun peaked out and Jessica and Darin had their first dance as a married couple right there on the beach!  

Our Couple’s Story

Our couple met eight years ago through work, with Darin working as a graphic designer and Jessica as an Executive Assistant. Maui is a special place for Jessica and Darin–after all, it’s where they took their first vacation together! It’s little wonder why they chose Maui to be the location for their Hawaii venue wedding. There’s even been talk of settling down on the island, to which we say… Aloha! 

When the time was right, Jessica and Darin became engaged by the river at his parents’ home. You can find them relaxing and enjoying themselves here nearly every other weekend. Surrounded by a literal dessert, this body of water is beyond special and seems to further represent the strength of Jessica and Darin’s marriage, just look at those genuine expressions of love! Keep scrolling for the spectacular beach shots!

Thank you, Jessica and Darin, for trusting us to coordinate your Hawaii Venue Wedding. We wish you all the happiness in the years ahead. And we look forward to seeing you on Maui again sometime in the near future!

Cindy and Scott’s 5 Palms Wedding in Maui was all about love! Nine family members were in attendance, including children and grandkids, making this sweet wedding intimate and filled with smiles. The day was blessed with comfortable weather and just the right amount of gentle cloud coverage to cool the warm tropical breeze from the ocean.  

The Maui Wedding Venue

5 Palms is the perfect location for an outdoor ceremony that melds the perks of a venue with the backdrop of a beach wedding. Situated on the south coast of the island, the 5 Palms lawn overlooks the sparkling waters of Keawakapu Beach. With shoreline lava rock, golden sands, and an unparalleled view of the setting sun, this venue is what Maui wedding dreams are made from! And while we’re on the topic of Maui wedding dreams, how spectacular is it that Cindy and Scott were able to say “I do” in such a beautiful location with their children and sweet grandchildren watching on!  

The 5 Palms Wedding in Maui Ceremony 

Cindy and Scott’s wedding opened with their grandbabies, AKA adorable Croc-wearing cuties! Seriously, does it get much cuter than this? Following the precious intro, Manutea Nui e provided the lovely sway of hula and the soft strum of the ukulele. Cindy’s son oversaw the union, sharing wise words and thoughtful sentiments before our couple had their first kiss as husband and wife. 

Our Couple’s Story

Cindy and Scott met the modern way, on a dating app! After two years together, they both decided that the time was right to say “I do”! Cindy works as a nurse and teacher (this boss queen has opened TWO schools!), and Scott is a construction consultant. It seems like building important and strong structures is this couple’s forte, just look at their relationship! Keep scrolling for all of the beautiful and sweet photos from this 5 Palms Wedding in Maui! 

Mahalo nui loa, Cindy and Scott, for sharing your special day with us. It was truly an honor to be part of your special day. We wish you only the best in the years ahead!

Kylee and Jay originally had their Wedding in Maui scheduled for 2020, but because of COVID travel restrictions, they decided to postpone it to this year. Their new wedding date was flooded with sunlight and too many smiles to count! So we feel it’s safe to say that this wedding was worth the wait. 

The Wedding in Maui Ceremony

The grassy knoll at Gannon’s in Wailea set the stage, and the venue was flooded with warm Maui light. Kylee entered with her proud mother and stepfather at her side, and her very own grandmother conducted the ceremony. Kylee’s grandmother has officiated the majority of the family’s weddings and baptisms, and it was truly an honor to work with them to keep this special tradition alive. It was a touching moment when all five of Kylee and Jay’s children came forward during the ceremony. The bride’s eyes weren’t the only pair tearing up during this sweet wedding in Maui!

Following the ceremony and group shots of the happy family, we took the short trip down to White Rock beach for some Maui Wedding Photography against the sunset. Keep scrolling for gorgeous skies of pastel pink and more beautiful moments from Kylee and Jay’s special day!

Thank you, Kylee and Jay, for choosing us to help make your wedding dreams come true in Maui! We had a wonderful time getting to know you and your family. We wish you all the best in the years ahead!

Sarah and Alisha’s Maui Wedding was kissed with the island sun and a cool, tropical breeze. Alisha is a beach lover at heart and always wanted to get married by the sea. So our couple figured, what better way to make that dream come true than in Hawaii! Gathered on the 5 Palms lawn, guests were treated to a panoramic view of the turquoise ocean and the endless Maui sky. The only thing better was the heartwarming scene of Sarah and Alisha tying their beautiful lives together by saying, “I do.”

Our Couples Story

Sarah and Alisha began their journey two years ago to the day. Not only does their wedding mark their own anniversary, but it also marks the 46th anniversary of Sarah’s parents. It’s a blessing and fortunate sign that Sarah and Alisha share their special date with a strong and affectionate couple. We’re certain that Sarah and Alisha’s marriage will be just as solid and loving. 

Interestingly enough, our couple also shares this date with National Margarita Day. Regardless of whether or not they got margaritas after the ceremony, they’re obviously punch-drunk in love! Plus it fit the theme–Because the ocean brought the salt and our couple brought the sweetness! Those adoring looks speak for themselves! Keep scrolling for more!

The Maui Wedding Venue

Sarah and Alisha chose the 5 Palms Oceanside Lawn as their Maui Wedding venue. This prime location has all the vivid views and breezes of a beach wedding with the flexibility of a venue. We love how the Elegant Simplicity Arch perfectly frames our loving couple.

Thank you, Sarah and Alisha, for choosing us to be your Maui Wedding coordinator! We wish you all the best in the years ahead!

The Rustic Hawaiian Ruins at Trinity by the Sea were flooded with tropical blooms and island fruit for Myra and Adrien’s Hawaii Venue Wedding. The pops of color and luau-like atmosphere did not disappoint! Subtle overcast lighting and a refreshing breeze greeted the guests and our spectacular bride and groom. We are so blessed to work in the Hawaii wedding industry because we get to meet amazing couples from near and far–and in Myra and Adrien’s case, just around the mountain! 

The Hawaii Venue Wedding

The Rustic Hawaiian Ruins is one of our newest venue additions. Ancient coral bricks and authentic structural design bring the spirit of old Hawaii to life. With a rustic wooden cross towering in the backdrop and only the gentle sky above, this Maui wedding venue perfectly melds the traditional church setting with authentic Hawaii.

Myra and Adrien selected our Styled Rustic Hawaiian Set-Up– or, in other words, we decked out their Hawaii Venue Wedding with all the beauty of the tropics! Lush blooms and island fruit made gorgeous stand-ins for the traditional white-wedding decor.      

Our Couple’s Story

Both born and raised on Maui, Myra and Adrien fit perfectly together. And it doesn’t hurt that they also get fit together! These two love a good workout! Myra and Adrien met through mutual friends, and for their first date, they broke a sweat at the gym.

When Adrien felt the time was right, he arranged for a couple’s hike up the Wainee Ridge… but the workout wasn’t the only reason Adrien was sweating. Once they got to the top, he popped the big question! And clearly, from their sweet reactions during the I do’s, this couple is strong in so many ways.    

Following the ceremony, we gathered the whole crew for Hawaii wedding group portraits. And made sure to capture Adrien with the two loves of his life, his gorgeous wife and his precious daughter. Keep scrolling for more stunning photos of Myra and Adrien making the most of their Big Day!

Simply stunning.

Mahalo nui loa, Myra and Adrien for choosing us to plan your Maui Venue Wedding. It was truly a blessing to work with you. We wish you all the best in life (and workouts!) in the years ahead!

What a special day we had with Saleena & Todd! Their Maui venue wedding was absolutely stunning in every way and we’re so excited to relive it here with you through photos!

The Steeple House in Kapalua offers a private setting while still overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean. The bridal suite provided a cool setting for Saleena to put the final touches before her walk down the aisle. She looked so gorgeous and we really loved capturing all her beauty and excitement. She walked out of the Steeple House to the ceremony setting where Todd and her friends and family awaited her arrival. Their stunning ceremony was officiated by Saleena’s brother which made the vows even more special. Afterward they all celebrated with group portraits and some cake!!

This photo really portrays the setting for Saleena & Todd’s outdoor wedding experience. It was a beautiful event shared with family and friends with a gorgeous blue ocean in the background while being surrounded by warm temperatures and a beautiful green landscape.

The

Saleena & Todd’s hook up was such a sweet (and direct) story. Saleena’s mom actually hooked the two up! She went right up to Todd in the shop they worked together at and asked if he was single? Mom got his number for Saleena so she texted him later that week. The two have been inseparable ever since! Thanks mom!! Nice work!

Saleena & Todd decided that on their wedding day they wanted a few portraits of the two of them but it was also very important for them to celebrate with their family. They chose to add on another 1 hour session the very next day so that they could get some more memorable shots just the two of them. We really enjoyed having the extra time with them, they were relaxed, happy, and looking amazing for their portraits!!

Mahalo for choosing us to coordinate your beautiful Maui wedding Saleena & Todd! It was a gorgeous day celebrating a gorgeous couple and we hope you enjoyed yourselves as much as we did!

When Makayla and Kevin met at the flooring store they worked at, they would never guess they would build their own hardwood flooring business together as well as their family! This sweet couple has two adorable girls that loved seeing mom and dad all dressed up getting married. We loved being a part of their Maui venue wedding and were happy that we could create a romantic intimate day for them and their family.

Makayla and Kevin were planning on a big wedding back home in San Diego but obviously, that became impossible, so they re-focused and decided an intimate wedding in Maui would be a lovely way to get married and still make it special. We could not agree more, Maui is the perfect place to host a small wedding while creating beautiful memories.

Makayla wanted to do a first look with her dad before the ceremony. We just love this! Look at the expression on his face when he sees his little girl for the first time as a bride! He happiness and joy on his face is priceless.

Mahalo Makayla and Kevin for choosing us to be your Maui wedding planners, we loved being a part of your day!!

Abigail & Cody are a fun and carefree couple all the way from Louisiana!! They live on a farm back home and joked during their wedding that they came from the farm to paradise for their ceremony!! Maui shared with them its true paradise with a gorgeous pastel sunset and heavenly weather during their Maui venue wedding!

Abigail and Cody began dating in college. They were introduced to each other by mutual friends, and the rest is history really! They enjoy the outdoors, horseback riding, hiking, ATV’s, and really just love life as a couple. It means so much to have someone to share lifes joys with and that’s just what these two have found! Life partners in each other to do life with!!

It was such a pleasure meeting these two and capturing their sweet and fun personalities! Take a look at their gorgeous Maui wedding day here.

5 Palms is such a beautiful Maui venue wedding location that fronts Keawekapu Beach. We do lots of weddings here with larger guest counts but it truly is perfect for an elopement as well!

This is such a gorgeous photo of Abigail & Cody just before sunset. We love how the light is coming in from behind Abigail & Cody with the waves lapping up on the shore perfectly.

Stacie & Andy have been together for about 7 years! They were engaged here on Maui 2 years ago and knew at that point Maui was where they wanted to get married! Maui is their happy place, their paradise, and they couldn’t imagine starting their married life anywhere else! With 43 of their friends and family in attendance, a Maui venue wedding was their perfect scenario for their ceremony.

Having a group of over 30, such as Stacie & Andy’s, make a venue wedding a must to ensure your guests are comfortable and parking isn’t an issue. A wedding venue such as the Five Palms in Wailea provides your guests with the ability to sit and hear the ceremony much clearer and enjoy the shade of the palm trees. Five Palms is the perfect South Side Venue location because it sits right next to the beautiful Keawekapu Beach making after photos just a short walk! Take a look at the pictures below to see the beauty it has to offer!

We asked this sweet couple what they were looking forward to most about being married and Andy immediately said they are looking forward to celebrating their anniversary here for all the years to come. We hope you do come back every year Stacie & Andy, and we hope we get to see you each and every time!!

It was a pleasure meeting you Stacie & Andy! We look forward to seeing you next year for some Anniversary Portraits!! hint hint!! 😉

Paige and Andrew had a sweet and simple gathering for the special day! Their venue wedding in Maui took place at Five Palms Restaurant in South Kihei. It’s a beautiful spot that overlooks the beach and ocean while accommodating larger group sizes.

Five Palms on Keawekapu Beach was the perfect ceremony location for their friends and family who were able to make the trip. Their loved ones were so incredibly happy that they were able to have their dream wedding in Hawaii. Unfortunately, Andrew’s sister wasn’t able to make it in person but she stayed up till 3:00 in the morning to make sure she could be there for them on Facetime. We could hear her warm wishes and love that she was sending over the phone to them. It’s very apparent that these two not only share so much love but they are loved by so many!!

Five Palms grassy lawn directly ocean front is one of our favorite locations for a venue wedding in Maui with easy beach access.

Paige & Andrew are both in the medical field. Paige is a Registered Nurse and Doctorate of Nurse Practitioner Student and Andrew is a Medical Student! We honor and thank them for everything that they have done through this pandemic. For a long time they’ve put other lives first, but today, their love comes first!

Paige was a stunning bride with a humorous and fun personality to be around. She made taking her portraits as easy as it gets, willing to be adventurous and explore the lava rock terrain. She also  communicated what was most important to her, the beach shots. We made sure to get some breathtaking wide shots and focus especially on the beautiful Maui backdrop.

Paige giggled with love every time she looked at her husband Andrew. It made for some perfect, natural smiles and moments that really captured their love for each other. 

Mahalo Paige & Andrew for choosing us to make your dream venue wedding in Maui happen! You were such a joy to work with and we wish you many years of love and happiness!

Madison and Austin have known each other from a very young age. They always had an undeniable connection and friendship and as they grew older they just grew closer and closer. This is a true definition of soul mates and these two were lucky enough to find each other early on in life. Many people spend a lifetime trying to find a love like this. We feel so blessed to have met them on this big step in their lives when they shared their commitment to each other during their Maui venue wedding. After meeting them and spending time with them we truly believe that love knows no age!!

We began documenting their special day at the bridal suite at Steeple House. It offered a private setting for Madison to slip into her dress and reflect on the moment she’d been waiting for. We snagged a couple shots of Austin prior to the wedding and we just love his classic black and white tuxedo and look.

Shortly after they stepped outside to the beautiful setup just out front of Steeple House. This spot highlights a secluded yet picturesque setting for our bride and groom. Their ceremony was officiated by Reverend Joe and then they were off to celebrate with family portraits and then couples portraits! You don’t want to miss all the gorgeousness in the pictures below so keep scrolling!!!

Madison & Austin shared their own personal vows with each other. They were so heartfelt and you could see and feel Madison tearing up with happiness. You could see just how much love and admiration Madison has for her husband and family. Austin’s mom was tearing up in the ceremony as well and you could just see how filled she was with joy that her son was marrying his best friend and partner for life.

Madison & Austin were the sweetest couple! She radiated with the love she received from Austin. You could tell he doted on her with everything he had and loved her deeply. And the same went for Madison and the love she felt for Austin.

We explored the top of the cliffs and Madison was the most easy going bride letting the train of her dress get dirty and embracing the adventurous landscape Ironwoods has to offer. We know they will love their timeless wedding photos that will speak wonders of their love for generations to come!

Mahalo Madison & Austin for allowing us to be a part of your special day! We hope that you enjoyed everything about it and we look forward to seeing you in the future!!

Kristy & Darius were surrounded by so much love for the venue wedding in Maui! They are actually a local couple blessed with being able to have their family join them on their big day! It was extremely important to them to have their loved ones present and thankfully the restrictions on the island lifted just enough to make that happen!

We call this story Love & Basketball because that’s where the chemistry began. Kristy had her eyes on Darius for quite some time, but it wasn’t until a pickup game on the basketball court that she really caught his eye.

Kristy & Darius dated for about 8 years before Darius proposed. He ‘Popped the Question’ at his birthday celebration with all their friends and family in attendance. We love how this sweet pair cherishes their family! We know as their family grows they will continue to adore each other and grow this new family bond.

Camden is 5 months old and their biggest joy!! In addition to tying the knot and having a beautiful baby boy, Kristy & Darius also bought their first home this year! 2020 brought amazing things for this sweet couple!

It was such a pleasure being a part of your big day Kristy & Darius! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it, your photos turned out amazing!
