Hawaii’s magic blessed another one of our beautiful newlyweds again! It was our pleasure to coordinate Danielle and Julio’s Maui venue wedding! They exchanged vows on a lovely Sunday late afternoon in a stunning ceremony at Merriman’s, a stunning wedding venue with an ocean view. The setting was intimate and romantic, with close friends and family in attendance to witness the couple’s union…keep reading to see how their big day unfolded!

To the sound of the crashing waves, Danielle and Julio exchanged their heartfelt vows in the center of a stunning tropical floral circle! The ceremony at Merriman’s was private, with close friends and family in attendance, which felt deeply personal and meaningful…

Circle Of Our Love

As they exchanged their vows, we were drawn to how stunning of a bride Danielle was! Her lace wedding gown and veil are a classic and timeless choice. The addition of tropical blooms, which were some of Danielle’s favorites, added a unique and personal touch to her ensemble too! It’s always wonderful to see a bride incorporate elements that are meaningful to her into her wedding day look, don’t you think?

After their Maui venue wedding ceremony, we walked down to the beach with our beautiful newlyweds for a few wedding portraits! They can now officially say they were “Just Maui’d!”

Throughout the evening, the couple was surrounded by love and support from their friends and family. The final hours of their Maui venue wedding were breathtaking, as you can see! The sound of the ocean in the background and the beautiful Maui sunset provided the perfect romantic backdrop…

We love the soft, pastel sky…it looks like a painting! Danielle’s bridesmaids were dressed in every color of the sunset too!

We wish Danielle and Julio all the best in their next chapter together as husband and wife! It was an honor to work with you – sending you lots of aloha…

Last week we coordinated Natsuko & Derek’s Maui venue wedding, and today we get to share some of their photos! It was a beautiful morning at Merriman’s with a wonderful couple — the kind of wedding we live for.

With a small group of loved ones surrounding them, Natsuko & Derek exchanged vows, shared Hawaii lei, and became Husband & Wife. We loved every moment of their heartfelt ceremony, and their portraits are amazing.

Our Words and Our Truth

This Maui Venue Wedding was so surreal in the best way: the calm blue waters, the couple’s romantic energy, and the unbeatable weather you’ll find on a sunny Maui morning.

Merriman’s provided a quiet lawn for Natsuko & Derek’s ceremony. The restaurant overlooks Kapalua Bay and features swaying palm trees and lush landscaping. The couple has such a calm yet engaging presence, so marrying on our peaceful island was the perfect fit.

Reverend Joe led Natsuko & Derek in their vows and offered a Hawaiian blessing over them. Karma Hill Photography was there capturing it all, from the bride’s grand entrance to their emotional vows to their joyous pronouncement.

Remembering The Romance at a Maui Venue Wedding

Once Natsuko & Derek had become officially married, it was time for their couples photo shoot with Karma Hill Photography. This was their chance to unwind and enjoy the beauty all around them, plus take in all their blissful newlywed joy.

We love seeing couples’ personalities shine during their Maui Venue Wedding. Natsuko & Derek were up for anything — romantic kisses in the glowing morning sun, an adventurous walk to the rocky shoreline, playful laughter that fills each image with energy. We are here for it!

Soon it was time to bid aloha to this darling duo. They were ready to start celebrating at their reception, and their guests were excited to catch up with them. So we got in a few final photos and sent them on their way.

We all still had something to look forward to, though: this moment when we get to share their Maui venue wedding photography!

Congratulations, Natsuko & Derek! You were so great to work with and we’re grateful you chose us as your Maui wedding coordinator!

Hatice has always dreamt of tying the knot with the sweeping views of the ocean around her. Isaac knew this, so he decided to make her wish a reality! Hatice was surprised when Isaac told her they were having a Maui destination wedding. Not to mention, this sunset affair itself felt like a fairytale! Keep scrolling to see this occasion for yourself.

Before the ceremony started, Karma Hill Photography got some beautiful shots of Hatice with her bridesmaids! We adore how these ladies are all wearing a different shade of blue. These various hues complement the sweeping ocean views exquisitely! Next, Hatice is a breathtaking bride! Her gown is sleek, while her hair and makeup styling are classic. However, we like how she accessorized with sheer gloves — they add a chic touch to her look.

Then, Isaac and his groomsmen look fantastic! We like how simple and sophisticated these men look in their khaki pants and white button-up shirts. Then, Isaac’s khaki suit is bold and sharp. Above all, you can see how their boutonniere adds a delicate feel to their attire.

The Peaceful Maui Destination Wedding

Isaac and the guests were the first to arrive at Merriman’s. Then, when it was time, the wedding procession began. Once the bridal party was at the front, our bride made her grand entrance. Hatice walked down the aisle with her sister by her side! 

When our delightful duo stood together, you could tell there was no one else they’d rather have beside them! Isaac and Hatice’s faces were full of nothing but radiant smiles and loving looks!

Isaac and Hatice have been together for six years! He proposed to her in Colorado while they were skiing. Our adventurous duo was at the top of the mountain when Isaac popped the question!

Congratulations, Hatice and Isaac! Thank you for letting us be part of your Maui destination wedding. We wish you a future full of new travels and great moments together!

Hawaii has a special place in Haily and Hugo’s hearts! Since they met one another on the island, they knew there was no better place to tie the knot. Their Maui venue wedding was tranquil and intimate. Our gorgeous couple was able to celebrate their love with their closest friends and family! Most importantly, you can tell this passionate pair relished every second of this intimate ceremony. Continue scrolling to experience this afternoon event for yourself.

Before we went to the ceremony location, Karma Hill Photography captured pictures of the bridal party! First, they got some fun photos of the groom and his groomsmen. These pillow fight shots are so lighthearted. You can tell Hugo is already feeling exciting to be marrying Haily!

After this, we went to see Haily and her bridesmaids. It was heartwarming to see our bride getting ready as she held her one-year-old daughter in her arms. Lastly, the group shot is beautiful! Haily has a blissful glow on her face; you can tell she’s feeling nothing but happiness to be getting married!

Why We Love Their Maui Venue Wedding

Merriman’s Kapalua was the location for this event, and this spot provided us with breathtaking scenes! Silky clouds and the setting sun’s luminous glow were decorating the sky. Then the lush lawn and lofty palm trees created a magical landscape. However, we adore how exquisite the circle arch is with the vivid greenery. It enhances the dreamy ambiance and makes this ceremony look like a tropical fairytale!

Our Couple’s Story

Fate was working overtime when Haily and Hugo met! In November 2016, Haily moved to Maui because she got a new job. Then in February 2017, Hugo visited the island with his mother, brother, and brother’s girlfriend to celebrate his mom’s birthday! After his brother mentioned a dating app, Hugo decided to try it during his vacation.

Once Haily and Hugo both swiped right on each other, Hugo messaged her to make a connection. Then, one day later, they met up at Canoe Beach! From there, they never stopped talking. Then in 2018, Haily moved back to California to be closer to Hugo and her family.

The weather forecast said it was supposed to rain all day, but lucky for us, it didn’t. It’s almost as if this Maui venue wedding was meant to be!

Their one-year-old daughter was the flower girl! Although she got a little fussy during the ceremony, she was nothing but smiles when she was in her parents’ arms. You can tell Haily and Hugo are great parents to their little one!

Congratulations, Haily and Hugo! Thank you for letting us be part of your intimate wedding day. We wish you a future full of quality time with family and new adventures!

Hawaii is Megan’s happy place, and Kenneth has always wanted to revisit the island! Their destination wedding in Maui gave them the perfect excuse to come back. And this time, they got to share the tropical magic with their loved ones! Continue scrolling to experience this exquisite event for yourself!

Tranquil, beachy, and heartwarming are a few words we’d use to describe Megan and Kenneth’s wedding. Our gorgeous couple’s children had a significant part in the ceremony– they walked down the aisle first! After these four beautiful kids, our graceful bride and her father were next. Megan looked breathtaking in her chic lace gown, natural makeup, and classic hairstyle. You can tell Kenneth agrees with us from the look of adoration on his face!

The Enchanting Destination Wedding in Maui

Setting the scene for this occasion was the lush lawn at Merriman’s Kapalua. Lofty palm trees and dreamy greenery framed the ceremony, while the sapphire ocean delicately sparkled in the background. The rustic arch and vibrant floral arrangements add a boho touch to the wedding. And Kalani from Manutea Nui E played soothing melodies on his ukulele, creating a romantic ambiance! Although there was heavy cloud coverage, the sunset left a spectrum of soft hues painting the sky!

Our Couple’s Story

Megan and Kenneth’s story started when they met on a dating app. Our delightful couple had an instant connection because of their many commonalities! In September 2019, they moved in together and combined their families. Then, in March 2020, Kenneth and Megan bought a new house! These radiant newlyweds wanted to start a fresh chapter of their lives in their own space. Above all, we hope these portraits captured by Karma Hill Photography will decorate the walls of their home!

This lovely blended family was supposed to travel to Hawaii for Spring Break in 2020. Due to COVID, they had to postpone their trip until November 2021. Everything worked out perfectly for Kenneth and Megan! Our charming couple had a stunning Maui destination wedding, and they got to share the aloha spirit with their family! Not to mention, the timing was flawless, so this trip was a Thanksgiving family getaway as well!

Congratulations, Megan and Kenneth! Thank you so much for letting us be part of your special day. We wish you a future full of quality time with your family and unforgettable memories!

Isabelle and Jon’s Micro Wedding in Hawaii took place on the lush grounds of the Merriman’s in Kapalua. With the sweeping views of the island in the backdrop, this Big Day was blessed with love, smiles, and plenty of sunshine. 

The Micro Wedding in Hawaii

The ceremony began with Isabelle making a radiant entrance at the top of Merriman’s outdoor staircase. Jon’s look of affection and pride was unforgettable. Reverend Richardo officiated the ceremony as Isabelle and Jon’s guests watched on, including their adorable two children. Their first kiss as a married couple was celebrated with cheers and hoorahs from their loved ones! Keep scrolling for more of this sweet couple and crew, plus the gorgeous beach shots that followed the beautiful ceremony!

Our Couple’s Story

Jon is a sales manager for Toyota and Isabelle is a new stay-at-home mom. They met for the first time when Jon hired Isabelle as a sales representative. They clicked right away, and soon Jon realized he didn’t just hire a standout worker, he’d also hired the love of his life!

Together they have two children, a seven-year-old son and a 1.5-year-old daughter. Jon proposed on Valentine’s Day in 2020 while they were out to dinner. He put his plan into action when Isabelle got up to go to the bathroom, carefully placing the ring box under her napkin. Clearly, she said yes! Isabelle and Jon love to seek out new culinary trends together and travel as often as their schedule allows. We could not get enough of the love and cute moments shared between these two!

Thank you, Isabelle and Jon, for trusting us to coordinate your Micro Wedding in Hawaii. You were wonderful to work with, and your Big Day was simply stunning. We wish you all the best in the years ahead!
