The anticipation was truly felt by all of us for Tricia & Billy’s Beach Wedding in Maui. They waited a lifetime for each other, and we waited 5 months since our last wedding! It’s been rough not having weddings in our life every single day. We’ve been looking forward to this gorgeous ceremony just as much as Tricia & Billy!
Tricia & Billy met 3 years ago when she decided to swipe Right on Tinder. Billy thought it was his dashing good looks but it was actually all because of his name. See, Tricia’s dog was named Billy, and as all dog owners know, they are one of the most special beings in your life. She felt it was meant to be!


It was a beautiful afternoon at Southside Beach. The warm sun with a light breeze offered the perfect setting for these two to share their vows with one another. Although they had planned for many family and friends (and their dogs) to be there on their wedding day, things didn’t work out quite as planned.
Quarantine orders for the guests coming from the mainland made it nearly impossible for loved ones to attend. Instead, this resilient couple brought Live Maui Webcasts along to film it for everyone watching from their homes in the mainland. This awful pandemic may have put up hurdles in our lives but Tricia & Billy weren’t going to let it get in the way of their love. In fact, it’s stronger than ever now as they embark on this new chapter as husband and wife.





















Billy restored his blue Bronco all himself! It was the perfect prop for their wedding pictures. Billy planned a fun “honeymoon weekend” adventuring around West Maui in the Bronco before heading back to work on Monday.

At Simple Maui Wedding, we exclusively hire Karma Hill Photography for all of our gorgeous wedding captures. For Sunny & Aaron’s beautiful wedding at the 5 Palms, Cheynice, one of their talented photographers, summed up the occasion so perfectly, that we thought we’d let her tell the story of this incredible ceremony:
“When I arrived at Sunny’s condo, she was hard at work perfecting her makeup, almost overwhelmed. We were all so glad she took her time with her makeup because she looked absolutely stunning when she was all done! She even cried as she was putting on her dress because she was so emotional that her makeup was perfect and everything was finally coming together. As her dress was buttoned up, she added the pearl necklace her mother-in-law let her borrow. It was such a classy touch to her beauty.”








“It was drizzling just before Reverend Richardo’s conch blew, but when Sunny arrived, the rain stopped moments before she made her entrance.”




“Everyone loved Richardo’s ceremony. He had the couple and all of the guests laughing and smiling throughout, which was just what the couple wanted.”









“After the ceremony, we gathered for photos on the beach of the 5 Palms. Keawekapu is where they love to hang out as a family together, so it’s become a sentimental beach for them all.”










“As the final minutes of the sunset came to a close, Sunny and Aaron experienced the most vibrant colors for their sunset! Sunny was saying ‘It’s almost comical to have such a perfect sunset!’ It was true since the whole day they had overcast skies leading up to those very last moments.”

“Overall it was a very beautiful day and Sunny and Aaron were left as happy as ever.”






Mahalo nui loa, Sunny & Aaron, for trusting Simple Maui Wedding with your Wedding at the 5 Palms. We wish you all the joy (and vibrant sunsets!) in the years ahead…

One day, after his mother called to ask when he was going to get married, Daemon sat down with Ruolan and they made the difficult decision to have a Maui beach elopement… just kidding! Far from a difficult choice, these two were happy and immensely relieved to elope in a beautiful island paradise! Ruolan wanted a beach wedding, and the couple had already booked a Maui trip, so the elopement just seemed to fall into place. Simple and as beautiful as can be…
This dynamic duo met online a little over two years ago, and it’s been smooth sailing ever since! With no kids and no pets, our couple loves exploring the diverse food scene in Seattle while saving a drop of time for some West Coast swing dancing! These two are the complete package: brains and beauty! Ruolan works as a family physician for Kaiser Permanente and loves traveling, and Daemon is a data scientist for Microsoft who loves himself a good cocktail! Keep scrolling for all the beautiful and heartwarming shots!









We love the brilliant light and power-poses of this incredible capture! There’s no doubt that this beautiful couple will continue to support and uplift each other in the years ahead…



Our hearts are melting… How precious is this candid moment?!










Draped in a lace halter with endless pleats of chiffon, this bride is gorgeous and eco-friendly… who needs a designer gown when you can get one as stunning as this from a consignment shop!

And speaking of gorgeous, Daemon is on-fleek in a gray wool suit and peach-colored boutonniere. His color pallet perfectly complemented the soft, Hawaiian sunset of their Special Day.







Mahalo nui loa, Ruolan & Daemon, for trusting Simple Maui Wedding with your intimate Maui beach elopement. It was truly our pleasure. We wish you all the love in the years ahead…

This Maui wedding on the beach was the Goldilocks of Hawaiʻi ceremonies: not too hot, not too bright, but just right! The temperament of the weather perfectly suited our beautiful bride and groom, steady and easygoing.
Stephanie & Austen have been together for 8 years, and over the span of six of those cycles around the sun, they’ve been all-in on getting married! So, of course, their guests were thrilled that the Big Day had finally arrived–the celebration was flooded with plenty of cheers and heartfelt congratulations… even a few laughs of “Finally.” Sometimes when a couple belongs together, their friends and family just know! And watching Stephanie & Austen say “I do,” it was pretty clear even to us that they were a match made in Heaven… Or maybe on the shores of Maui? Sometimes it’s hard to tell the two apart. Keep scrolling and you’ll see why!


We absolutely love it when pets and service animals join the festivities! They bring such honest energy and charm to the ceremony, not to mention such incredible cuteness! Check out that lei!

And check out that bride! Speaking of honest energy… Stephanie looks positively radiant. She glows with grace and confidence. With her proud parents at her side, this Maui bride is the pinnacle of spirit and beauty…







Our couple chose to have Austen’s best friend, Bobby, officiate their wedding. This was his first ceremony and he nailed it!








Can we pause for a moment to stress how much fun we had capturing the dynamics of this Maui beach wedding crew! Check out their expressions and poses… what a great shot!

Thirty-five friends and family members flew out to the island to support Nicole & Ivan during their Maui wedding at the Four Seasons. And it was nothing short of a once-in-a-lifetime celebration!

We are all about the adorableness of this shot! How crazy cute is this bride?!


And we’re also all about the gorgeous of her dress! Lace paired with a plunging neckline and elegant cutouts… Nicole’s beauty is unparalleled!


Following the ceremony, our elegant couple strolled down to the sandy shore to capture some incredible Maui beach wedding photos. And the timing was perfect! The sun had just dipped below the cliffside, casting Nicole & Ivan in a warm, golden light…






















And with a love as fiery as the one shared between these two, the night just wouldn’t be complete without a Polynesian fire dancer! The flames lit up the room and were only rivaled by the cheers of the guests!


Mahalo nui loa, Nicole & Ivan, for trusting us with your Maui wedding at the Four Seasons. We had a blast capturing all of the charm and laughter, and we wish you the very best in the years ahead!

Considering the easygoingness of Mattye & Luke’s Maui beach wedding, it’s little surprise that they hail from a small Arkansas town called Pleasant Plains. These cattle farmers love the breezy and rustic pasture life, so when they found Simple Maui Wedding, they knew our laidback yet elegant approach to beach ceremonies was the perfect fit for them!
Our couple met over seven years ago, and even though Luke was involved with someone else at the time, he knew he was destined to be with Mattye. But it wasn’t until years later when an innocent Facebook comment on a newborn calf kickstarted their journey together. And from then on, they were unstoppable!









Luke proposed to Mattye in her favorite restaurant, The Olive Garden. After the meal he excused himself, and when he returned to the table he was down on one knee, ring in hand.
A friendly server recorded the special moments, capturing all the tears and laughter. And looking over these tender and heartfelt images, it’s easy to envision the lifetime of sincere and honest love that lies ahead for these two…























We’re blown away by these striking sunset photos! Peaches and French blues are boldly accented by the rocky outcrop. We love how our couple is perfectly framed by the soft golden light…

The Maui venue wedding of Nikkie & Erik began with an intimate and misty ceremony, and it finished with a splash of cherry and blush that took our breath away! Together for 11 years, these high school sweethearts said “I do” on the patio of the 5 Palms in Wailea. And we were beyond charmed with their genuine love and affection…
Although the ceremony was overcast, the guests at this wedding had the most awe-inspiring view… the endearing couple! And they really were a beautiful pair! The subtle blush-tones of Nikkie’s locks added a delicate “pop” to her traditional bridal decore and highlighted her radiant beauty. And Erik pulled off all the laidback style of a Maui groom in love.


Officiating the ceremony was the delightful Reverend Richardo. Never short of a laugh or wise insight, Richardo has the profound ability to bring about smiles and heartfelt moments of joy.











Shortly after the big “I do,” the rain ceased and the sky was washed in bursts of dusky pinks and rouge. It was almost as if the island was sending a sign and rejoicing in the couple’s new union. After all, who wouldn’t be rejoicing when greeted with smiles like these!
Of course, we took advantage of the serendipitous change and stepped out onto the shores of Keawakapu for some soft and magical couples portraits… Keep scrolling for all the blushing moments!

















Thank you, Nikkie & Erik. We were honored to help make your Maui venue wedding dreams come true! We wish you the fondest Aloha in the years ahead…

Subtle yet vivid… seemingly a contradiction, but the perfect way to summarize Tina & Kirill’s sophisticated venue wedding in Maui, HI. Surrounded by the outdoors beauty of the Steeple House at Kapalua, bursts of rich burgundy and mulberry added a drop of glamour to this surprisingly relaxed ceremony.
Together for over five years, Tina and Kirill first met while interning as software engineers at BlackBerry. Now residing in Seatle, this jet-setting couple flew out to the Big Island to capture their engagement photos against the tropical locale. So when it came time to say “I do” Tina and Kirill felt the “Magic Isle” would be the perfect place to get Maui’d! And it was on the slopes of the West Maui Mountains, where this couple effortlessly raised the bar for Hawaii destination weddings!
Need proof? Keep scrolling!



















Draped in an ivory princess gown with a lace illusion neckline, Tina looks as if she just stepped out of a fairytale…









And speaking of fairytales, we’re head-over-heels for this gorgeous custom floral arrangement by our friends at Dellables! Boysenberry with splashes of evergreen and peach, the rich hues of this bouquet perfectly complement Tina’s natural beauty.



And in the classic black-and-white, Kirill makes for a gorgeous groom!









These spectacular portraits atop the cliffs of Ironwoods beach are epic in the most traditional sense… poetic and awe-inspiring, these captures are only paralleled by our bride and groom’s love story…




Thank you, Tina & Kirill, for trusting Simple Maui Wedding with your Special Day. You have our heartfelt congratulations and fondest Aloha…

If you’re planning on saying “I do” on a white sandy shore, you may feel like you’re swimming in a wave of beach wedding bouquet options — ranging from the classic nosegay of roses to the internet craze of hot-glued seashells — Finding the perfect wedding bouquet can seem like an endless pursuit …
… Luckily, we’re here to help! Having serviced over 1,800 Maui weddings, we at Simple Maui Wedding are happy to share some of our favorite wedding bouquets from real weddings. As you seek out the perfect floral masterpiece we promise to steer you far away from those seashell-and-glue atrocities (Although they were pretty popular a few years ago).

The succulent is quickly becoming the latest beach bouquet must-have. With its voluptuous leaves and striking appearance, it’s little wonder why … If you’re searching for a touch of untamed, rugged beauty, then look no further than the hearty succulent!
Available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, the succulent is positively otherworldly, evoking fantasies of galaxies far away and jungles lost in time.
Succulents grow on every continent except Antarctica. And although they’re popularly misclassified as a type of cacti, the terms are not interchangeable.
While most cacti are indeed succulents, a significant amount of succulent plants are unrelated to cacti. This means most succulents don’t have needles–which is good news for those just-manicured bridal hands!













With roots spreading across the Mediterranean and Asia, the peony is an exquisite Eastern beauty. Because their peak season is in May, peonies are perfectly timed for an early summer beach wedding. But if your heart is set on tying the knot in the Winter or Fall … the garden rose makes for a modern frilly substitute.
Truly a maid-of-all-trades, the peony was once revered by Chinese diplomats for its medicinal properties and flavor. (Hmm … after-wedding snack, anyone?) In fact, the peony is so beloved in China it’s known as the “King of Flowers” and held the throne of the national flower until 1929.
Built like the fun-loving little sister of the dahlia, this charmer perfectly encapsulates the sunshiny vibes of a Hawaii beach wedding. The peony’s delicate yet complex layering of petals whimsically mirrors not only the flow of a wedding gown but also the waves of the sea.








Available from early spring to late autumn, these treasured blooms make the perfect beach wedding bouquet flower. Bursting in seascape hues from seafoam green to cerulean blue, the hydrangea will make a splash in any shoreside ceremony.
The Hydrangea is another popular bouquet bloom with origins in Asia. In today’s Japan, the small, star-shaped florets are brewed into a delicate tea and used to celebrate the birthday of Buddha.
As if all that’s not enough proof of this flower’s remarkable merits, the pink Hydrangea is quickly becoming an Eastern symbol of budding love. The spherical blooms are said to whisper, “You are the beat of my heart.” And the renowned florist, Tan Jun Yong, further mused over the pink hydrangea, saying, “The light delicate blush of the petals reminds me of a beating heart, while the size could only match the heart of the sender!”
We can hear you sighing over there … It’s okay, we’re sighing too.
With over 100 dainty flowers per stalk, this uniquely round beauty calls forth visions of globe sailing and ocean sprays. The rippling texture of the hydrangea stirs up memories of childhood wishing wells, casting fairy magic upon even the most sophisticated of beach weddings.





Planning on a beach wedding in Hawaii? Or just hoping to elope on the world’s most romantic sandy venue? We’re here to make your dreams come true!


The calla lily enfolds its velvety spathe around a yellow pistil, and the result is a trumpet of seemingly divine origins. Although it’s most commonly seen in hues of ivory, the calla lily is also available in the highly pigmented shades of mahogany, blush, Easter yellow, and sunset flame … not to mention black for all you posh trend-setters out there.
And because it’s cultivated to grow year-round, this bloom is a can-do for every chic and refined oceanside ceremony.
Originating in South Africa, the calla lily has been a European favorite since before the 1600s. Although technically not related to the lily species, this misnamed beauty has taken the world by storm and is now popularly considered to be the ultimate definition of elegance.
Like the rose, the symbolism of the calla lily is influenced by its coloring: white represents purity and faithfulness, pink represents fondness and admiration, purple represents passion, and yellow symbolizes thankfulness.





Available in pom-pom, pincushion, and starlike blooms. With a season ranging from late-summer through autumn and with hues from eggshell to chocolate, the dahlia brings an enchanting drop of Fall to any bridal bouquet.
The dahlia is a Mexican heartthrob worth swooning over. Originally cultivated by the Aztecs, and donning an endless abundance of petals, this versatile showstopper is a provocative beauty.









Long treasured for their feminine allure and pearlescent shimmer, orchids will bring a touch of the tropics to your floral bouquet. With over 28,000 different varieties, there’s sure to be an orchid type that will suit your venue and set your heart aglow. Not sure where to have your beach wedding? Check out our list of gorgeous Maui beach wedding locations.
Reminiscent of the heavenly Hawaiian rainbow, orchids bloom in every vivid color of the prism–from pistachio green to gradients of amethyst and cream, this exotic showstopper is sure to make a statement as you stroll down the sandy shore.
The delicate orchid is said to represent desire, virility, and beauty. In fact, it’s so intimately linked to romance, that the ancient Greeks dubbed it “orkhis,” which means … well, we’ll let you look that one up!

The fragrant eucalyptus perfumes the dreams of lovers. Bursting with the fresh and vibrant scents of crushed mint and upturned soil, and laced with subtle hints of just-picked lavender, eucalyptus sprigs are evocative bouquet inclusions that bring romance to the forefront.
Most species of eucalyptus are native to Australia and many can grow upwards of 200 feet!
Not only are the greens a favorite treat for adorable koala bears, but they’re also considered a sign of good fortune and positive outcomes. If a piece of eucalyptus bark is worn around the neck, then the wearer is said to bring good luck to whoever they encounter. You can’t go wrong with these special greens!














Curved into a perfect heart with a spike-shaped spadix at the center, the Anthurium has us dreaming of a young lover just pierced by Cupid’s arrow. Originating from South America and as glossy as can be, few flowers are as memorable as the lacy Anthurium.
Anthurium means “Tail Flower” in Greek, but this beauty also goes by “Lace Flower” and “Flamingo Flower.”
Native to South and Tropical America, Anthuriums grow in over 700 different varieties and bloom year-long. So, no matter what season you plan on having your beach wedding, the anthurium will be ready to make an impact!





Weaving in local foliage is a stylish and economical way to add a sense of place and culture to your Hawaiian destination wedding. From ferns and jade vines to the grand monstera and sacred Ti leaf, no beach bride is complete without a touch of tropical greenery.
Although the monstera leaf isn’t indigenous to Hawaii, its gorgeous jigsaw leaves can be spotted throughout the islands–keep an eye out for it during the spectacular drive to Hana!
Valued for their medicinal properties, some species of Hawaiian ferns have been alive and blooming for the last 1,000 years. Nope, that wasn’t a typo! Lace a couple into your bouquet, and you’ll quite literally be carrying a piece of the islands with you on your special day.















Proteas are available in many striking varieties, but few are as sensational as the king protea. Transcending time with its prehistoric beauty, this stately king is sure to draw the eye of every guest! That’s why this bloom is true to its name and reigns supreme on our list of top beach wedding bouquets!
The king protea symbolizes diversity and courage. With African origins, this mesmerizing titan now graces the slopes of every Hawaiian island and is quickly becoming a must-have for any beach wedding bouquet.
With a feather-soft belly cradled in lush peach and fuschia petals, the king protea is sure to take center stage. Including one of these royal blooms will give you a beach wedding bouquet that your guests won’t soon forget!













With the beautiful simplicity of a beach locale, our custom bouquet is an ideal way to bring in the colors you love and give the affair that personal touch.
Whether you’re looking for a dramatic collection of vibrant flowers to serve as a sharp pop of color against the scenery, or a softer blend of shades to complement the warm pastel hues of the tropical sunset, there’s sure to be a beach bouquet perfectly tailored to your style.
Come drop by our site for all your beach wedding in Maui inspiration! Or read our blog for intimate details on real Maui shoreline ceremonies.
Bouquets date back to Medieval times. To ensure the longevity of their love and to ward off evil spirits, the bride and groom often decked themselves in garlands of herbs and garlic (With the added bonus of masking that pungent scent of Medieval body odor!). Thankfully, the garlic is long gone! And today’s modern brides have the luxury of sophisticated blooms bursting with personality and delicate scents.
Ever wonder why the bride traditionally tosses these luscious floral blooms of eye-candy? Well, tucker down because we’ve got a story for you!
Back in the Medieval Ages, brides were considered lucky commodities and guests just couldn’t leave without having a piece of their own “good luck” charm … so, instead of saying their fond farewells after grabbing a piece of delectable red velvet and buttercream wedding cake, the guests of old snatched and tore at pieces of the bride instead–leaving her buzzed and blushing in all the wrong ways!
Until one fateful day, a witty young bride tossed her bouquet into her frothing swarm of admirers, tempting them into ripping at the petals for souvenirs while she and the groom dashed away to the safety of their wedding chambers. After which, the groom flung out his new wife’s garter to further satiate the crowd.
And while today the bride is still considered as lucky as can be, thankfully the times (AND guests!) have changed. So if you choose to toss that bodacious bouquet of yours, cast a glance around at your admiring guests and take heart in the fact that if you decide to ask for it back, you’ll surely end the night with your flowers (and yourself!) in one piece.
Legend has it, whoever catches the bride’s bouquet will be the next one walking down the aisle.
So anyone who wishes to tie the knot with a partner in the near future can stand behind the bride in hopes of catching the bouquet. Of course, to actually catch the bouquet, your guests will need some fairly deft “bouquet catching” (or snatching!) skills.
A basic bouquet will start at $300 and go up according to your specific flower choices and customizations. Styles that require more blooms, like a cascading bouquet, will generally cost more than the traditional nosegay choices.
Although they’re Hawaiian island classics, we don’t recommend the plumeria and hibiscus as part of a beach bouquet because they’re incredibly quick to wilt and brown once picked. And with the time spent traveling, performing the ceremony, and photographing those gorgeous sunset portraits, this means that both flowers are unsuited for beach wedding bouquets … the last thing you want is a bloom that checks-out for the night before you’ve even said: “I do.”

With the historical Steeple House in Kapalua setting the stage, Conner & Jonathan’s venue wedding on Maui artfully melded a minimalistic approach with a bit of country charm. Built in 1950, the Steeple House is en route to the Ritz Carlton and features stained-glass, a gable roof, and idyllic ocean views.
After meeting during their undergrad years, Conner and Jonathan went on to finish law school together and now practice defense in their hometown of Louisiana. But we have to admit, this cheerful couple made for the most delightful and spunky set of attorneys we’ve ever seen! And they didn’t hold back when it came to bringing their adorable-game!





We’re obsessed with these candid shots!
Conner’s loveable and bubbly personality is effortless, and her spirit and profound natural beauty stole the spotlight!




And once she was adorned in all of her wedding glory, her father took his first look at the new bride… and we were honored to capture the tender moment. Can it get any more touching?!

…oh, yes, there’s more…


Standing back-to-back against the door, Conner and Jonathan exchanged the heartfelt letters they’d penned especially for this day. Laced with touching details and sentimental memories, these poignant writings will be cherished for a lifetime…














We were head-over-heels about Conner’s sweeping mermaid gown. The cathedral-length veil perfectly complemented the elegant and sleek silhouette of her dress.

And just in case you didn’t believe us when we said they brought their “adorable-game”… keep scrolling!

The 5 Palms in Wailea set the stage for this tender yet breathtaking wedding ceremony on Maui. Together for exactly five years, Taylor & Austin had us falling in love along with them. Youthful and vibrant, this loving couple and their families planned an affair that was glamorous with an abundance of touching personal details.
Stylish bursts of plum and navy blue adorned the bridesmaids and groomsmen and brought a sense of contemporary couture to the spirited occasion.





Taylor’s nephew pulled off the role of ring bearer and then some! We couldn’t get enough of his adorable bowtie and precious smile!
As an inventive and sentimental detail, Taylor had sections of her mother’s wedding dress sewn together, giving it new life as her garter belt and the pillow for the rings. Incorporating cherished heirlooms is a touching way to weave in family history and values into the special day.



Taylor pulls of lush in all the right ways. Draped in champagne lace complete with a cathedral-length trail and an illusion open back, this bride is simply breathtaking.

Taylor and Austin shared their first look on the terrace of a stately family home. And it just took one glance to witness the radiant love shared between this endearing couple.























Natural light flooded the outdoors ceremony at the 5 Palms and made for a spectacular view of the oceanfront and that first magical kiss.

Everyone was celebrating the occasion! Even the humpbacks!

























As Austin and his lovely mother shared their first dance, a hush came over the room. Their deep and tender love was palpable… and the guests watched on through misty eyes…
Afterward, the hush turned into cheers and hollers as Taylor and her father took the stage, pulling off one of the most entertaining and elaborate father-daughter dances we’ve seen!



Thank you, Taylor and Austin, for choosing us to coordinate your wedding ceremony on Maui. We wish you an abundance of happiness and laughter in the years ahead…
