Bailey & Greg married at a beautiful Maui Wedding Venue, and we got to coordinate it! They escaped an Iowa heat wave and came to Hawaii for their vacation & wedding. This cool pair would have had an amazing wedding anywhere, but we’re so glad they chose Maui! It was a beautiful evening with a beautiful couple!

A First Look at a Maui Wedding Venue

Bailey & Greg don’t like to be the center of attention, so a smaller micro wedding at a Maui venue fit them perfectly! To ease some of their nerves, they decided to have a first look before their ceremony. They got to spend a few quiet moments together before their wedding began, and it allowed us to get to know them better too.

Cheynice from Karma Hill Photography captured everything from their first look to their cake cutting. She said they could be models for a magazine because they were so photogenic and open to all kinds of fun & creative shots. You can scroll down to see some of the stunning images she captured at their wedding!

Hawaiian Traditions

Bailey & Greg included Hawaiian elements in their ceremony. Reverend Richardo blew the conch shell to signify the start of the ceremony, and then he led them in a traditional lei exchange. Manutea Nui E joined us at the Maui wedding venue as well – they provided ukulele music and a graceful hula performance. Their guests will definitely be talking about this ceremony for years to come!

Their best man & maid of honor walked down the aisle first. Then it was time for Bailey to make her entrance!

The perfect Maui Wedding Venue

Gannon’s Restaurant in Wailea has a grassy lawn that overlooks the ocean in the distance. It’s a quiet spot that rarely gets any wind, and it’s only steps away from their reception lawn.

Bailey & Greg planned a small reception with the restaurant. Dellables provided floral decor, and the Karma Hill photography team captured photos of their cake cutting. This Maui wedding venue is a great option if you want to keep your ceremony and reception all in one place!

It only takes a couple minutes to drive to the beach from Gannon’s, so the newlyweds got photos with their toes in the sand. The sunset was extra gorgeous that evening. The sky quickly went from a pastel glow to a vibrant orange. We’re in love with all their dreamy photos, and we’re excited to share them with you!

About the Bouquet

Greg was the one who selected the bridal bouquet! With so many bouquet options to choose from, he said Bailey would have taken forever deciding. He chose the Rustic Hawaiian bouquet in a pastel color pallet. Great choice, Greg! It perfectly complemented Bailey’s bridal style and looked great with the tropical scenery at the Maui wedding venue.

Our Couple’s Story

Tre is a Police Officer for the Seattle Police Department, and Shannara is waiting for the stay-at-home order to be lifted to finish the last part of school to become a Medical Assistant. They have one fur baby, a Goldendoodle named Boris. In their free time, Tre likes to play football for intramural league and play video games. Shannara spends most of her days with Boris and also enjoys cooking and gardening. She really enjoys going to concerts and festivals. As a couple, they enjoy hiking, kayaking, and exploring food.

Shannara grew up in Maui and lived here until she was twenty-one. After moving to Seattle, she fell in love with the city as she stood at a special point. Then one day, she met Tre, who was already working as a police officer. The connection was instant. When the time was right, Tre took Shannara back to that special spot in Seattle and asked her to marry him. Clearly, she said yes! And the next step was a Maui Destination Wedding!

You know those days that are so unbelievably happy that everything feels like it has a golden glow around it? That’s the vibe we got from Courtney and Tanner’s Hawaii micro wedding. The happiness had no end. Set against the sweeping west Maui views of Gannon’s grassy knoll, this lovely ceremony featured adoring guests, bursts of tropical flowers, and the salty breeze of the ocean.

Tanner was nothing but smiles as he awaited the entrance of his bride. And as an untraditional (but awesome) little twist, there wasn’t a flower girl but a flower MAN! Devin tossed those flowers like a seasoned pro and primed the grass with petals for Courtney’s grand entrance. And what a gorgeous bride she was! Wearing a lace gown with her hair in smooth yet beachy waves, it’s little wonder why Tanner couldn’t stop smiling!

When Brieanna and Brandon’s venue canceled all 2020 weddings, they held on to a dim hope that an early 2021 ceremony was still a possibility. But after they’d planned for a Hawaii honeymoon, they realized a Maui Destination Wedding was the Big Day they’d been hoping for! And with their closest loved ones watching on, Brieanna and Brandon said, “I do” in paradise.

The Maui Destination Wedding

Gannon’s Restaurant set the scene with sweeping views of the Maui coast. Wearing silver-grey and the cutest smile, Brandon eagerly awaited his bride. After the sweetest flower girl and ring bearer, Brieanna made her grand entrance. Draped in a sleeveless gown with a mermaid flair Brieanna was absolutely stunning. And this queen was not shy when it came to celebrating marrying the love of her life!! Keep scrolling for more of the celebration!

Our Couple’s Story

Brieanna is a contract administrator for a low voltage company, and Brandon is a pyrotechnician who makes safety devices for the military. In 2019, they bought their first home and can’t wait to hear the pitter-patter of little feet in the hallway. They enjoy golf on the weekends, camping, and traveling to new destinations–like this gorgeous Maui beach! 

Brandon is the best friend of Brieanna’s cousin, so it was only a matter of time before they crossed paths. They hit it off and knew something special was in the works, dating practically immediately. One special Thanksgiving at their family’s, when they were going around the table and sharing what they were thankful for, Brandon opened his heart and announced his deep love for Brieanna. And then he got down and asked her to marry him! How sweet is that?! Now keep scrolling for more of this gorgeous couple!

Francisca and Knight’s Maui Micro Wedding on Gannon’s grassy knoll was flooded with tropical goodness and plenty of celebratory vibes. With bursts of Hawaiian ginger and protea, and with the sweeping views of the ocean in the backdrop, this was nothing short of a wedding in paradise.

The Maui Micro Wedding

From the moment Francisca first stepped onto the venue, Knight’s eyes locked onto her and never left. And it’s easy to see why. Wearing a satin gown with a princess cut flair and a delicate up-do framed with a demi-train, Francisca is captivating. To complement the love of his life’s look, Knight sported the modern version of shining armor, a linen suit of tan with elements of dusky blue. We could not get enough of the sweet moments shared between these two.

Francisca works for a healthcare organization called Mercy, and Knight works in logistics for JB Hunt. Due to the pandemic, they’re both working from home and keeping their two furbabies company. Francisca and Knight spend most of their free time with their adorable pups, but when it’s football season, you can catch them cheering on the LSU Tigers! “Geaux” Tigers!

Francisca and Knight met during a time when they both worked at Mercy. After Knight left, they stayed in touch, and eventually, their friendship blossomed into a true and honest love. The rest of the story is right here on our blog!

Meghan and Dustin’s Wedding in Maui featured the peaceful views of Maui’s south shore and the evergreen love of a radiant couple. Set on Gannon’s ceremony lawn, guests were treated to the beautiful colors of the island and a cool, mountain breeze. Surrounded by beauty and with such a sweet love story to celebrate, it wasn’t just the Maui sun that brought the sunshine!

The Wedding in Maui

From the moment Meghan walked in, arm-in-arm with her father, we knew this was going to be an extra special wedding in Maui. Dustin’s face lit up and the crowd’s energy became tangible. After delaying the wedding due to the pandemic, everyone on the grass that afternoon was excited to see the wonderful day finally arrive.

Looking simply breathtaking, Meghan wore a gown by Martina Liana with a show-stopping train fit for a cathedral. We loved her loosely plaited up-do and fresh-faced look. Together her style perfectly blended the contemporary splash of a tropical wedding with the sophisticated glam of a traditional venue. The best part? All those sweet moments shared with her brand new husband! From tender glances to belly laughter, these two fit together in all the right ways.

Our Couple’s Story

Meghan and Dustin met in 2014 on a blind date. A mutual friend of theirs recognized the potential and would not stop insisting they met (and a good thing, too!). Finally, Meghan and Dustin gave in and agreed on a single date. Dustin planned the special day and met Meghan at the location with a single white rose in hand. They spent the rest of the date rafting down a local river. How sweet is that?! Turns out the river led to love! 

Together, Meghan and Dustin enjoy doing all things outdoorsy. From snow machining to jet-skiing, these two love an adventure! And now here they are, taking the next step on the biggest adventure of all! Keep scrolling for more of this sweet couple and their beautiful wedding in Maui.

Lindsay works at a high school district doing accounting, and Ryan is a foreman for a glazing glass company. Their love story began on Bumble.

When you know, you know!

They spent nearly every day together since that wow moment. Ryan proposed in Redlands under Umbrella Street and they celebrated with oysters and drinks. It was a simple day, the best kind of engagement. Together they have one furbaby, although she’s not so much of a baby anymore! Bella is thirteen and Lindsay has had her since she was a puppy.

While Bella wasn’t able to join, we have a feeling she was putting on the cutest doggy-grin for her mom and dad’s Maui Venue Wedding! Keep scrolling for more of our beautiful couple!

Lindsey and Austin’s Hawaii Venue Wedding featured bursts of pink, the sweeping view of south Maui, and a couple so in love it had us on cloud nine. Gannon’s Ceremony Lawn set the stage with a backdrop of glistening ocean and fuchsia bougainvillea blooms that perfectly matched our couple’s wedding colors. It was as if the island had been long preparing for Lindsey and Austin to say “I do.”

Lindsey and Austin knew they wanted to marry in Hawaii. Austin’s family owns a condo on Maui, and the two have enjoyed many beautiful days beneath the tropical sun. Gannon’s Restaurant in Wailea was the perfect location for Lindsey and Austin’s Hawaii Venue Wedding, not only is it a stone’s throw away from white sand beaches, but it also features an onsite reception area perfect for parties of all sizes. 

Also, that view! We mean the adorable couple, but the seascape is also great!

We were cheering along with the guests during Raphaela and Timothy’s Maui Venue Wedding at Gannon’s in Wailea.

Gannon’s Grassy Knoll set the stage. With onsight music played by the venue, Timothy made his entrance with Aydrian, our couple’s brilliant eleven-year-old daughter (who has the cutest smile ever!). Moments later, Raphaela graced the ceremony lawn in the arm of her father, Diego. Wearing a gown with luscious pleating and plenty of eye-catching elements, Raphaela was absolutely stunning. 

Reverend Richardo led the ceremony, and soon Raphaela and Timothy were celebrating their union with friends and family. It was clear these two were ecstatic to tie the knot!

Raphaela is a registered dental assistant and Tim works as a… wait for it… detective! The two met a couple of years ago at a bar. Raphaela took one look at his smile and knew she had to say hello. From then on, Raphaela and Timothy spent all their free time together and fell head-over-heels in love.

It didn’t take long for detective Tim to piece the clues together and realize Raphaela was *the one.* During their first-ever family vacation via a Puerto Rico cruise, Tim stepped out to pick up tacos while they were at their AirBnB pitstop.

Soon daughter Aydrian got a text that Timothy had the tacos set up and ready to go on the rooftop. When Raphaela reached the roof and saw Timothy’s hands behind his back, she knew this was the moment. She said yes! And the rest is right here in this blog! Including a little… miracle!

The Maui Venue Wedding

Courtney and Tristan decided on a Maui Venue Wedding shortly after their engagement. One day, they were browsing a local wedding show with their moms and came across a Hawaiian booth. They knew right away that this was the opportunity for a once-in-a-lifetime Big Day. A wedding, a family vacation, and a honeymoon all wrapped up in one tropical package. Courtney said, “It just felt right.”

Courtney and Tristan met at their two oldest sons’ “fund-run” event. Since first grade, their boys had grown to be close friends, and Courtney and Tristan began chatting over parental anecdotes and sharing fun stories. Soon Courtney and Tristan were also friendly acquaintances, but in this case, there was no denying the spark of romance!

Our couple got engaged in what Courtney describes as “the most simple and silliest of ways.” While in the comfort of their own home, Tristan set up an intricate scavenger hunt, but Courtney was so nervous (suspecting what he was up to), that she had HIM find the ring for her!

Kaite and Jackson’s Maui Micro Wedding was flooded with the prettiest pastel lighting that perfectly encapsulated their gentle love. They say “perfect” is impossible, but set on Gannon’s ceremonial knoll with an exquisite view of south Maui, Kaitlin and Jackson’s special day was nothing short of perfection.

The ceremony began with the sacred blowing of the conch and the grand entrance of our beautiful bride. Jackson’s expression as he laid eyes on his bride was everything love is made of. Wearing a form-fitting gown by Mestads with delicate details and a sweeping veil, Kaite gave the Maui sun a run for the title of Most Luminous.

After the ceremony, the wedding party encircled Kaite and Jackson as they listened to the voice of a very special singer. Unable to attend their wedding, Kaitlin’s father prerecorded a beautiful original song. He was part of her Maui Micro Wedding in spirit and in melody.

Having to delay their original wedding due to COVID, Kaite’s father inscribed this song last year and kept it secret until that very moment. It was beyond special to have such a beautiful and sentimental blessing. Follow along for more precious moments!

Kaite and Jackson live in Minnesota where Kaite works as an RN and Jackson is in sales. They met three and a half years ago when their Maid of Honor set them up on a blind date at an ice cream shop. The date was sweet but far from cold! Jackson later proposed on the balcony of that very shop! We can not get over how gorgeous these two look on the white sands of Southside beach!

Daisy and Harrison’s wedding at Gannon’s was the Goldilocks of Big Days, not too elaborate, not too relaxed, but just right. Maui blessed the afternoon with vivid skies and a crisp island breeze.

Daisy and Harrison decided on a Venue Wedding in Hawaii after a hunt for the perfect location in their hometown of Nevada fell short. Instead of being disappointed, they realized they could have a dream wedding in Maui at a venue where the island does the decorating for you! Win, meet win! Keep scrolling for all the sweet moments!

Our Couple’s Story

Daisy works as a recruiter for the Army National Guard, and Harrison is employed at an RV company. Together they have two furbabies, Milo and Oreo, and they love to pamper their sweeties with walks and adventures.

Their love story began as two Army friends, but after a few years, it blossomed into a romance. Harrison proposed after an extravagant hike filled with waterfalls. He was so overcome with emotion when he got down on his knee that he was shaking and couldn’t get the words out. But that was just fine because Daisy was doing the same! The shakes have left, but their tangible love is stronger than ever. Just look at these two!
