Many of our couples meet organically through mutual friends, and that’s precisely how these two lovebirds met! Emma and Grant’s Maui destination wedding is a beautiful and elegant affair, a day they dreamed of for so long! Magic was in the air when our couple first met; they spent the whole evening chatting away and ended up closing the restaurant! But, of course, those sparks were just the beginning of their romance. Keep reading to see how their beautiful day unfolded!

We Knew It Had To Be Maui

Joined by a few close friends and family who traveled to their Maui destination wedding, their wedding ceremony was quiet and intimate. But no less gorgeous with the tropical florals and arch! The verdant and scenic setting at Gannon’s provided privacy for our sweet couple to exchange their endearing vows…

Grant and Emma visited Maui together in November of 2021 and immediately fell in love with the island. So when thinking of a place to have their destination wedding, they knew it had to be in Maui!

When planning their Maui destination wedding, our happy newlyweds wanted something elegant, simple, and intimate. So, we were thrilled and honored to help create that dream come true because that’s what we do best at Simple Maui Wedding!

After their lovely ceremony, we wanted to capture just a few portraits of the happy newlyweds with the lush and green scenery. They couldn’t look happier! The way they look and embrace each other says it all… The only one missing in these portraits was their precious pup Presley who is the light of their lives! (And also had a paw in their engagement story too!)

Emma knows how to do elegance right with her deep V gown and stunning white and green bouquet. It looks so pure and classic, contrasting with the grassy lawn in the distance. We are so lucky to have the most gorgeous brides at Simple Maui Wedding! And so is Grant! 😉 who looks so handsome in his navy and black lapel suit…

We wish warm and happy congratulations to Emma and Grant! We are beyond happy for you both! It was our pleasure to coordinate your Maui destination wedding! May you have all the love and happiness in the decades ahead…

“We really are the ying and yang,” our charming couple Jacqie and Daniel said before their Maui venue wedding. Our easygoing couple, relaxed and colorful affair, turned out to be a splendid day despite the rain showers. Thanks to our nimble wedding coordinators, we turned the rain into rainbows so to speak! It was our pleasure to make their dream wedding come true…

Our sweet couple hail from the Pacific Northwest, and they fell in love with Maui when they visited in 2020 and knew they had to return one day. Jacqie also used to be a Hawaiian dancer growing up, and they really connect to the island’s culture. So now here they are tying the knot at their Maui venue wedding!

But first, the first look! The smile on Daniel’s face when he saw Jacqie for the first time was priceless! She looks like a tropical goddess with her vibrant bouquet and haku flower crown…

Our Best Day Ever

Their tropical ceremony was held at Gannon’s, and thankfully the rain held off for their sacred vows! It was intimate, simple, and beautiful, exactly what they hoped for…and they were surrounded by their close friends and family who were so happy to witness their big day! These two have been together for nine years, full of love and growth, so you can imagine they are ready to begin their next adventure!

Now it was time to celebrate! With a burst of bubbles, no less! It was a fun and lighthearted touch that captured their bubbly and adventurous personalities! Is there anything more cheerful than a cloud of bubbles?! Their Maui venue wedding perfectly encapsulated their new start for their next chapter…

Before continuing their celebration, we took a walk down to Southside Beach to catch the sunset! And they had the most colorful and beautiful sunsets, as you’ll see! The rain had dissipated and unveiled a colorful and glorious sky as if in honor of our dear couples’ big day…

Congratulations Jacqie and Daniel! Mahalo for being so flexible with the weather! It was our pleasure to coordinate your big day and make your dream wedding come true!

Our love birds know how to make the timing work in their favor! Molly and Connor weren’t planning on a Maui beach wedding, but when Connor learned he would be deployed with the Army National Guard in October, they decided to turn their Maui vacation into one with a wedding! Now that’s going with the flow! It was a relaxed, elegant affair with their nearest and dearest, as you’ll see in these beautiful moments below…

“Yes” To A Life With You

Their big day was nothing short of perfect, with the sun shining and a gentle breeze blowing. The couple, who are from Alaska, often spend their free time exploring the great outdoors or spending time with their families. But, with Connor set to deploy in October of 2023, they wanted to make the most of their vacation by booking a beach wedding!

Overall, their wedding was elegant yet relaxed, with their friends and family dressed in traditional aloha attire – we love how everyone brought the aloha spirit! Their intimate ceremony took place at Polo Beach, which provided a secluded and gorgeous setting to exchange their vows…

Their friends and family were ecstatic to celebrate their beach wedding! Everyone had traveled to celebrate their big day, making their moment even more special. But before heading off to pop the champagne, we captured a few intimate portraits of just the two of them by the ocean… after all, they are “Just Maui’d!”

These two couldn’t stop smiling as the sun began to set! They were so happy that their Maui beach wedding came together seamlessly with their original vacation plans. This day was meant to be!

As the sun began to lower on the horizon, it cast a peachy pink glow over our happy newlyweds. It added another layer of romance to their beautiful Maui beach wedding! These photos feel like they are out of a dream…one these two never want to end!

Congratulations, “Mr. and Mrs. McKamy!” It was a pleasure to make your dream beach wedding come true! We wish you all the love and happiness together in the years ahead!

“After our third date, we were inseparable!” So Lauren told us before their Maui beach wedding! We love hearing how our couples meet; their story is just too sweet! Lauren had just moved to the Sacramento area for work and figured a dating app would be a harmless way to meet someone there since she didn’t know anyone at all…until she met Aaron. As you can see, it was a life-changing decision that blew them away! So it was our pleasure to photograph and coordinate their Maui beach wedding! Re-live their special day through these beautiful photos…

The islands were calling our darling couple from the start…they are both from California and weren’t sure where to hold their wedding for their families, so they decided why not Maui? They both love the beach and easy-going lifestyle of the islands, so it felt like a perfect fit! And since they love the island vibes so much, they will spend their honeymoon here too! Their beautiful Maui beach wedding was just the beginning of their celebrations…

Our happy couple savored these precious moments at Polo Beach together, as you can see! Aaron’s generous and kind spirit is just one thing Lauren loves most about him. And our beautiful bride looks exquisite in her lace gown as it trailed behind her on the golden sand…

Their deep love for each other shines through each photo, don’t you think? It was a privilege to coordinate their dream Maui beach wedding!

Congratulations to our dear newlyweds, Lauren and Aaron! May you have a magical and romantic honeymoon! May your future together hold all the love, peace, and happiness!

“We both agreed that our wedding is OUR wedding, so planning a day for others just wasn’t right for us,” said our beautiful couple before their recent Maui elopement! And we couldn’t agree more! Amanda and Matt couldn’t wait to tie the knot, and we were honored to capture every moment! Our happy newlyweds wanted their day to be just about them, without a big extravagant show that didn’t feel authentic to their love story. So, let’s see how their dream wedding unfolded!

Amanda and Matt are two of a kind…they love spending quality time together and raising their 18-month-old son! They both are from a small town in Texas but never knew each other until they met on a dating app. While both were living in Texas, Amanda was blown away that she met a guy from her hometown, where everyone knows everyone! Little did they know what love had in store for them! The rest is history…

Since it was just the two of them, these photos feel extra romantic and dreamy! Amanda looks ethereally backlit by the sun…simply stunning!

They have that look – the newlywed bliss look! Both radiate happiness in every photo as they savor these first moments as husband and wife together! Our beautiful couple had never been to Maui before, so this entire day felt like a total dream at Southside Beach at sunset…

To our dear newlyweds, Amanda and Matt – it was a joy to coordinate and capture your Maui elopement! We are so pleased that your wedding was everything you wanted and more! Congratulations! May you continue to grow in love in the years to come!

These photos during the ceremony look so dreamy! The colors are so soft in the luminescent light! It was an incredibly sacred moment as they exchanged their loving vows to forever love, honor, and cherish each other…

Our charming couple not only fell in love with each other but with Maui too! They wanted an intimate yet elegant setting with a view for their wedding, so the grassy lawn at Gannon’s was perfect. And since they invited a small number of close friends and family, there was plenty of space to celebrate!

Forever By Your Side

What struck us most as we walked down to Southside Beach for a few more portraits of their Maui venue wedding was how clearly in love they are with each other! Our newlyweds met at work three years ago and became friends…although clearly there was something more!
