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!!

Joy & David booked their Maui Venue Wedding a few months ago and we were all on the edge of our seats seeing if the state would open up for tourism in time. Thankfully the state travel regulations changed and everything just fell into place. Joy & David were able to get here with their closest family and friends and they enjoyed an intimate ceremony at the 5 Palms.

The morning of the wedding they were singing “Going to the Chapel and we’re gonna to get ma-a-a-rried” as they were playfully getting ready! They enjoyed that song so much that they decided to play it just before Joy walked down the aisle to David. The love and excitement that Joy & David share is so special! They were blessed with a rainbow just after their ceremony and they consider that a sign of good luck! We would have to agree, and we feel very lucky that you chose us to be a part of your special day.

We could see a rain shower slowly headed our way during the wedding & couples pictures afterwards but luckily it held off and they got great sunset shots, which was their dream for the wedding!

Mahalo Joy & David for choosing us to be a part of your Maui Venue Wedding. It was a pleasure working with you and meeting your beautiful families!!

It was endless blue skies and cool tropical breezes for this Maui beach elopement on Wailea’s Southside shoreline. The night before Beatriz & Giovanni’s special day, a dusting of snow graced the Haleakala summit, anointing the occasion with the heavenly mana of the island…

Hailing from Austin, this joyous couple first bumped wheels at the skatepark–and within moments, their hearts were flipping along with their boards! Four years later, in the warmth of his parent’s loving home, Giovanni asked Beatriz to spend forever with him… and she said yes, of course!

Keep swiping for all the heart-flipping beauty of their Maui beach wedding…

The kindhearted Kahu Richardo Hanako’o officiated the ceremony. And as Giovanni’s mother and father bore witness, a small pod of humpbacks danced across the oceanfront while the couple said: “I do.”

Although it was Giovanni’s parents who were physically present for the union, Beatriz’s family was there in spirit… They rested close to her in precious photo charms laced around her bouquet with ribbons of baby-blue.

Whales, blue skies, and snow… how many auspicious signs can one couple have during their Maui destination wedding? There’s always room for one more!

The ceremony faded into the night with a blissful sunset of soft cherry and lavender, perfectly suited to this couple’s spunky magic.

Mahalo nui loa, Beatriz & Giovanni, for trusting Simple Maui Wedding with your Maui beach elopement! We hope to stay in touch and wish you the warmest Aloha for the years ahead…

A Maui Beach wedding is always special, but we just loved all the inspired touches Sharadin and Michael added to make their celebration more personal. The green and white floral palate complimented the natural elements and the beach and carried through perfectly to their oceanfront reception at the Andaz.

To make sure they captured all the special details they made sure to add additional photography time. The added photo time allowed them to capture the getting ready process and the reception. They will have amazing images that tell the story of the day and captured so many beautiful moments together and with their friends and family.

The Details

We loved that Sharadin chose to bring their invites and announcements to be photographed. It provided a great backdrop for a beautiful photo of the rings. They had a romantic half-circle of green and white flowers for their ceremony alter and custom signage at their reception. It’s fun to see their journey from engaged couple to a destination Maui beach wedding.

Sharadin has a special bond with her dad and included a personalized gift for him as well as a father-daughter first look after she was finished getting ready. It’s special touches like this that made their Maui wedding so unique and inspirational.

When Abi & Olu’s Maui Elopement photos came into the office after their wedding the whole team was all “ooooohing and aaaahhhing” over just how gorgeous they were. Not only was their love radiating from the photos, their bridal style and floral was ridiculously on point.

Abi’s form-fitting mermaid dress with a flowing train looked stunning on the beach and on her! Olu’s tailored blue suit was perfect for the overcast morning weather, the soft tone complimented the sky and ocean perfectly. We also LOVED the custom bouquet Abi chose with the all-white tropical flowers and flowing greenery.

The Couple’s Story

They met through a mutual friend of Abi’s, they didn’t live in the same city but when Olu came for a visit they quickly fell in love! They are both active in their church and enjoy volunteering as a quality way to spend time together. They chose a Maui wedding because they didn’t want a traditional wedding and getting married on the beach sounded perfect. Although they had never been to Hawaii before, they loved everything about the idea of having a destination wedding.

The Wedding Day

They decided on a morning wedding because they wanted bright blue ocean in their photos, but Maui decided that it was going to be soft overcast light that morning. We actually LOVE the way it turned out in photos making everything look so dreamy. We also loved the fact that Abi wanted some getting ready photos. It helped document the day and showed the process of getting ready to marry her sweetheart. After an intimate ceremony, the couple turned on their modeling skills for some gorgeous couples photos, they were so natural in front of the camera! They then had the rest of the day to enjoy together and get the honeymoon started!

Thank you Abimbola & Oluwapelumi for trusting us to plan your Maui Elopement! It was truly our pleasure to have been a part of your day!

This beautiful family visited Maui two years ago and fell in love with it. So when it came time to plan their wedding, there wasn’t a question: they wanted to have their wedding in Maui.

It was just this sweet family of three for this Maui Beach wedding. You could say it was kind of a family elopement! It turned out to be an amazing choice, as the beach, sunset, and weather were absolute perfection!

We love when a couple decides to include their kids in the wedding ceremony. Andrea and Jon made sure their daughter Hannah was standing with them and incorporated into the lei exchange. It made for such a special family photo moment.

This family has a special bond and it was so special to get to witness it in person. We also love that they made time after there ceremony for some gorgeous family portraits as well as couples photos.

After the wedding, the family was looking forward to a relaxing vacation. They couldn’t wait to take in all Maui has to offer. What a great way to get married. Being with the people you love in one of the most beautiful spots on the planet.

Thank you so much, Andrea, Jon, and Hannah for including us in your wedding in Maui!

Amanda and Gregory decided on a Maui Wedding after meeting on match.com and feeling an instant connection! When we asked Gregory when he knew Amanda was the one he replied, “When we first met.” Amanda agreed, and couldn’t be happier to have found the man of her dreams! They whisked away for their Maui Wedding along with Gregory’s two sons, Noah and Micah, and Amanda’s cousin Annica. A beautiful and intimate group, ideal for a beach side ceremony!

Amanda was absolutely radiant in a blush gown with elegant beading! She chose to pin her hair up tastefully showing off vibrant pink and purple underneath her rich brown hair, with white orchids elegantly placed to complete the look! She selected a Rustic Hawaiian Bouquet with added touch of light blue to complement the blue in Gregory, Noah, and Micah’s ties. The bouquet also perfectly matched Annica’s festive floral dress. We love how all the little details came together for this simple wedding and know this will be a day they always look back on with only the fondest of memories! As you can tell Noah and Micah are already big fans of their dad’s new wife! We cannot wait for them to continue making memories as a family and hope they will be back to visit again soon. This funky fun couple have captured our hearts and helping them make their Maui Wedding a reality was such an experience we will always remember! Amanda and Gregory, thank you so much for letting Simple Maui Wedding be a part of your special day. We are thrilled you two found one another and we wish you all the best! Congratulations and Warm Aloha!
