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…

“We can live well by ourselves, but with each other, we feel confident of overcoming any challenges life may throw at us,” our lovely couple said before their Maui venue wedding! Annie and Sam’s destination wedding was the perfect excuse for them to visit Hawaii with their friends! They were thrilled at the prospect of getting married in one of the most beautiful places on earth and creating unforgettable memories they would cherish forever…

The excitement was palpable as Annie and Sam prepared for their big day. They couldn’t wait to see each other during their first look. It was heartwarming to see Sam’s reaction when he saw Annie for the first time! Their love was unmistakable, setting the tone for their beautiful ceremony, as you’ll see below!

Before their intimate ceremony, Annie and Sam took full advantage of the stunning surroundings at Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa to capture some memorable portraits.

Love can be found in the most unexpected places, even online! That’s how our sweet couple, Laurie and Greg, met on Match.com eight years ago. Their first date was at a wine bar, where they talked for hours and shared a kiss that made Laurie’s heart skip a beat! It sounds like the most romantic first date! Fast forward to today, and they have been living together for four years and are ready to tie the knot! Keep scrolling to see more of these lovebirds’ Maui elopement…

Elope On A Whim

It turns out that Greg’s good friend, who he met during dental school, invited them to stay with him while they were in Maui. That’s when Greg got the idea to ask Laurie if she wanted to get married while they were there! They stumbled across our company, Simple Maui Wedding, and were sold on the idea!

The beauty of Maui provided the perfect backdrop for this couple’s special day as they exchanged their vows on Lahaina Shores Beach. And Laurie’s dress stopped us in our tracks! (And Greg!) Her embroidered gown was breathtaking, perfectly complementing the stunning surroundings.

Shoreline Vows – Maui Elopement

As they exchanged their vows under the setting sun and the sound of ocean waves, it was clear that this moment would be etched in their hearts forever!

The happy couple couldn’t contain their joy as they celebrated this new chapter of their lives together. They were surrounded by nothing but love and beauty, making it an exceptional day they would cherish forever… It was time to celebrate the new Mr. & Mrs. South!

From the moment they stepped onto Lahaina Shores Beach, their faces lit up with joy and excitement! As we photographed their first newlywed moments, an undeniable sense of love and happiness radiated all around them. You can tell that they are the best of friends in their Maui elopement photos!

As the sun set on their Maui elopement, we’re reminded that true love knows no bounds or limits. It can be found anywhere, even online! And when you find it, nothing is more magical than exchanging your vows under the Hawaiian sun!

We wish Laurie and Greg all the happiness in the world as they continue on this journey together! We hope you had a fabulous time in Hawaii too!

When planning their Maui venue wedding, they shared with us that they wanted their nuptials to be simple, fun, and elegant… precisely what we do best at Simple Maui Wedding! And their special day unfolded just like a dream…

Meant To Be Forever – Maui Venue Wedding

Before celebrating with their excited and joyful friends and family, we snapped a few portraits on the beach. What a beautiful pair they make! We love the tropical flair of Anjelica’s bridal look with her vibrant flower crown and bouquet. It was just the pop of color that brought the “wow” factor! And David’s salmon-colored suit was so refreshing to see! He looked so handsome, and it felt unique yet laid-back…perfect for a tropical wedding in Hawaii!

How far they have come from those early days! These two were meant to be together from the beginning, and you can tell through the feeling and love in these photographs… An incredible love story of an incredible couple!

Sometimes a laid-back and easy celebration of love can be just as romantic as a grander wedding. Our charming pair, Lauren and Nicholas’ Maui elopement, was exactly that! No fuss, no frills, and low-key was just what these two wanted. It was our pleasure to bring it all together for their big day! Keep reading to see how their delightful day unfolded…

Our happy couple wanted to focus on their love and devoted connection rather than the conventional traditions of a wedding and engagement. Lauren and Nicholas met online and didn’t technically get engaged! Neither of them is romantic, so instead, they just started talking about getting married, and a mere few weeks ago, they decided to get married and picked a date for their Maui elopement! An easy breezy decision that totally reflected their go-with-the-flow attitude…

Given their laid-back style, they opted for a nontraditional ceremony and wedding attire! Although, their looks felt just as celebratory in white and an aloha shirt! The blues and whites matched the tropical cloudy sky at Ironwoods Beach, creating a calm and peaceful setting for their beach elopement. How happy do they look, just the two of them, ready to begin their new life together!?

Congratulations, Lauren and Nicholas! It was our pleasure to coordinate your intimate elopement! May you continue to grow in love in the years ahead!

We recently had the pleasure of coordinating Ariel and Edward’s Maui elopement! It was a dream come true for this sweet couple, who have been together for many years. They met through mutual friends in middle school, believe it or not, but it wasn’t until high school that they felt that magical spark! From that point on, they were inseparable! Keep reading to see more highlights from their special day…

Despite facing many challenges over the years, Ariel and Edward never lost sight of their love for each other. They had to postpone their Maui elopement several times, so naturally, they were ready to tie the knot finally!

The day of the wedding was everything they had hoped for and more! The sun was shining, the water was crystal clear, and the views were breathtaking… Ariel and Edward exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony, surrounded by their three young children, who played a special part in their big day! It was a beautiful moment for everyone to see this family come together as one…

How adorable are their sweet children? We love the matching suspenders for the boys, which complemented their dad! Ariel and Edward are proud parents, indeed!

Ariel looked absolutely stunning on her special day in a beautiful beachy bridal gown! She looks like the epitome of tropical elegance in her Haku flower crown, which perfectly complements the tropical setting of the ceremony… A barefoot beach goddess!

We wandered further down the beach at Lahaina Shores to capture a few private moments of our newlyweds…they will cherish these memories for years to come! They were feeling mixed emotions naturally, but their joy and deep love for each other were palpable!

We wish Ariel and Edward warm congratulations on your recent Maui elopement! It was a pleasure to work with you both! We wish you the very best in the years ahead!

If you love this Maui beach elopement, you’ll love these ones on our blog!

When you elope in Maui, there are fewer things to make you nervous. That’s what draws so many wonderful couples to our island. One thing that brings anxiety to even the most laid-back couple? The weather.

Let’s set the scene, and then you’ll see how awesome Stephanie & Chris are!

Last weekend brought gray skies and lots of rain. Definitely not the bright tropical elopement this sweet couple dreamed of. We planned to have their ceremony in Wailea, but cloudy skies lurked overhead.

So what do Stephanie & Chris do? They go with the flow. These two were terrific, and sure they’d have a great day anywhere. So when we suggested moving to a dryer area of the island, they were totally up for it.

We met them a few minutes north in Kihei, where it seemed dry and clear. But we weren’t out of the woods yet.

It seemed like a rain cloud was following us, threatening to dampen our new plans as well.

Was it a miracle that the rains held off and the clouds cleared? Was it the wedding angels smiling down on Stephanie & Chris? Was their love so bright that no rain cloud stood a chance against them?

We think it may be all of that and more. We’re so happy that it worked out for them to elope in Maui! Check out their gorgeous Maui elopement below and join us in congratulating the beautiful newlyweds!

Best Delivery Ever

Stephanie & Chris are such a great match for each other! They’re laid-back yet adventurous, hard-working but always ready to share a laugh. The perfect type of couple to elope in Maui!

In fact, Chris had a somewhat humorous way of proposing to his now-wife. Stephanie is an online shopping enthusiast and looks forward to her Amazon deliveries. They joke that Stephanie gets home from work and enthusiastically greets the packages on her front porch before saying hi to Chris.

When it was time to surprise Stephanie with an engagement ring, Chris disguised it in an Amazon box and added it to her stack of packages. She was shocked and ecstatic when she opened that box and found it was a ring.

Of course, their proposal was emotional too, but it shows the kind of lighthearted fun these two are always searching for.

Their wedding reflected that too! While they were full of beauty and romance, they were also playful and cute. We loved helping coordinate their plans to elope in Maui!

An Emergency Meet-Cute

Stephanie & Chris first met in the ER. Stephanie is a nurse, and Chris is a firefighter/paramedic. They had seen each other a few times in passing, but hadn’t ever talked.

One night, Chris brought Stephanie an ER patient and a pickup line. He wanted to talk to her for a while but was too nervous. He lingered a while after giving Stephanie the patient’s report, and he ended up with her phone number. Score!

What started as workplace flirting ended up being a lifelong romance.

Once it was time to plan their wedding, they realized they were more excited about traveling than hosting a big event. Chris had been to Hawaii before, and Stephanie really wanted to visit the islands with him.

So they decided to Elope in Maui!

They had a beautiful ceremony with Reverend Richardo, and then they took dreamy newlywed portraits on the beach. Check out their sunset photos below — they’ll have you daydreaming about having your own elopement in Maui!

Congratulations, Stephanie & Chris! Mahalo for choosing us as your Maui elopement coordinator!

We plan vow renewals too! Check out this recent Maui vow renewal on our blog!

Kapalua’s bright, calm glow greeted us when we arrived for Rebecca & Anthony’s Hawaii beach wedding. We love relaxed morning ceremonies with incredible photos, and these two had all that and more.

They were a bit nervous when we met them at Ironwoods Beach. But in a good way. Free of the pressures that may have accompanied a big hometown event, they could take in each moment, each wave of nerves and overwhelming joy.

We’re so excited to share some of the photos from their Maui Hawaii Beach Wedding — we had such a good time with this dazzling duo, and now we can relive their day through these photos!

Hand in Hand, Through it All

Rebecca & Anthony’s Hawaii Beach Wedding was a well-earned celebration. These two work hard back home and have been through a lot together, so a joyful getaway was perfect for them.

Years ago, Rebecca moved from Michigan to Arizona to be closer to her grandpa and simply get a change of scenery. Her grandpa was part owner of a towing company there. His business partner? Handsome, hardworking Anthony.

Rebecca’s grandfather passed away, but you could feel he was there in spirit during their Hawaii Beach Wedding. Anthony looked to him as a father figure long before he even knew Rebecca, and he was of course a treasure for Rebecca.

Rebecca & Anthony brought all kinds of treasures with them to Maui’s shores: memories of her grandfather, the support of everyone who couldn’t be there in person, their shared experiences that led them to this moment.

This allowed them to share their vows honestly and truthfully. But also with laughter and hope. After all, that’s what’s got them this far, and that’s what will carry them for a lifetime.

More On The Horizon

So what’s next for Rebecca & Anthony? The first thing on their agenda after their Hawaii Beach Wedding: Breakfast. Then it was time to kick back and enjoy a classic Maui honeymoon. This was their first time getting to fully explore the island, so they were ready to make the most of their time here.

They could have stayed in Hawaii, but they were missing their little furbabies. Yes, Rebecca even turned Anthony into a dog person (or was it her Husky Mya that ultimately won him over?).

We took a few final portraits with the newlyweds before sending them on their way. But we know they’ll always be drawn to Maui, and we can’t wait to welcome them here again!

Congratulations, Rebecca & Anthony! You are such a beautiful couple and we’re so grateful you chose us as your Hawaii Wedding planner!

Stephanie & Michael had a beautiful Maluaka Beach wedding last week! This swoon-worthy couple traveled from Utah to elope on this scenic shoreline, and we’re so glad they did.

Stephanie donned a show-stopping gown, and you have got to see Michael’s reaction when he first sees her in it! Thankfully, Karma Hill Photography was there to capture each priceless moment, and today we’re sharing some of our favorite images.

Check out Stephanie & Michael’s wedding photo sneak peek below!

Our Fabulous Fate

Reverend Richardo officiated Stephanie & Michael’s Hawaiian-style ceremony. He brought humor and emotion to the service, which was a perfect fit for them. They’re a lively and passionate couple, drawn to each other more and more as the years go by.

They met through work. It wasn’t a joyful or romantic place, but their relationship is. So good things can come from drab places.

Their Maluaka Beach Wedding was anything but drab. They brought so much personality and style and were all smiles as they became husband and wife.

Their personal vows had us all laughing and crying, and their wave of excitement washed over all of us when Richardo finally pronounced them married!

They included traditions from the Hawaiian Islands, like a lei exchange and oli aloha.

A Maluaka Beach Wedding for a Maui-Loving Couple

Maui is a special place for Stephanie & Michael. Their wedding trip was their seventh Maui vacation, so it really is a second home for them.

They got engaged nearby at Makena State park and knew they wanted an elopement that was true to them and their adventurous spirits. So they returned to our island for a beautiful, unique, and carefree Hawaii wedding at South Maluaka Beach.

We loved spending this dreamy evening with Stephanie & Michael. And now that they’ve returned home to their fur babies Buddha & Piper, they still have lots to look forward to: settling into their married life, reliving their wedding through their photos, and sharing their exciting elopement story with all their friends and family.

Keep scrolling to see how beautiful their Maluaka Beach Wedding sunset was, and join us in congratulating this stunning couple!

Maui is home to many beautiful wedding venues for a Destination Wedding, and a simple Maluaka Beach Wedding was a stunning choice for Stephanie & Michael. This Wailea beach park has golden white sand and great sunset views!

Maluaka Beach has a grassy area with picnic tables, lava rock and dramatic trees. We love getting portraits in this spot in addition to the ones we get on the sandy beach.

Mahalo, Stephanie & Michael, for choosing us as your elopement coordinator! We loved being a part of your wedding in Maui and can’t wait to see you on the island again!
