Miriam and Joshua’s Maui Beach Elopement was flooded with sunshine with love everywhere you looked. From the beautiful bride and groom to the beachgoers cheering them on, from the piercing ocean to the golden Maui sun, Miriam and Joshua’s big day brought the saying “love is all around” to life!

The Maui Beach Elopement

The moment Miriam made her entrance on the sands of Polo Beach, we could tell this was going to be a special Maui Beach Elopement. Watching the love of his life make her way towards him, Joshua could not hold back his excitement. Those eyes, that smile, he was so clearly over the moon to marry Miriam.

Wearing an open-backed gown in ivory with a jeweled bodice and a sweeping train fit for a cathedral, Miriam is simply gorgeous. We love how her stylish loose waves and custom bouquet of white anthurium and monstera leaf add the perfect touch of tropical goodness to her elegant look. 

Wearing a tailored suit in midnight blue with a floral printed tie to bring out the colors of the sunset, Joshua is looking pretty sleek himself! The best part? The sweet demeanor shared between these two! Keep scrolling for more of their day of love!

We were thrilled to coordinate Kayla and Randy’s Maui Beach Elopement on the rustic shore of Baldwin. Together with Kayla’s parents and son, our couple celebrated six years of love with a ceremony that was nothing short of beautiful. With every moment worth highlighting, this was a day plucked from the stars.

The Maui Beach Elopement

Wearing a strapless gown with a show-stopping train, Kayla was simply gorgeous. We loved how the subtle pearl accents called attention to her glowing features and beachy waves. Doing his part in bringing style to the shore, Randy looks modern and sophisticated in a tailored navy vest and coal gray slacks, all tied together with accents of leather. Is this a pin-worthy couple, or what?!

But by far the most beautiful thing on the beach that day was the love shared between Kayla and Randy. And no matter how many times they wear those smiles or exchange those glances, a love like this will never go out of style.

Our Couple’s Story

Kayla and Randy live together in Lake Stevens, Washington with Kayla’s 8-year-old son Brayden (AKA super cutie!!–keep scrolling!), their two cats Luna & Leo, and their French bulldog puppy Kirby. Kayla works in medical billing and Randy works at Boeing. 

A couple of years ago, our sister company, Karma Hill Photography, had the pleasure of capturing Kayla and Randy’s save-the-date photos for their wedding. Together for six years, Kayla and Randy met on Tinder and hit it off immediately. One special day, they embarked on a hiking exposition, but they ended up getting so lost that they had to climb on boulders to get to the top! At the bottom of the mountain, Randy proposed, and the rest of the story is right here on this blog!

Delicate clouds speckled the expansive sky for Adriana and Chris’s Maui Micro Wedding. Set in front of a backdrop of ocean blue, our couple finalized an engagement of five years and blended their beautiful family of six. With loved ones watching on, this ceremony perfectly encapsulated the breezy beauty of a Hawaii beach wedding.

The Maui Micro Wedding

Ironwoods beach served as the sandy venue, decorated in golden sands and a sapphire blue sea with towering rock formations in the distance. Adriana made her entrance, looking stunning in a gown with drapery accents and a full button-down back. Sporting a tan linen suit and a megawatt smile, Chris was the walking embodiment of a happy groom! What could be better than celebrating the love of your life in pure paradise?!

Our Couple’s Story

Chris owns a landscaping company, and Adriana works for a general contractor company in the risk department. Together they have four children, a son and daughter from Chris and two daughters from Adriana. They met at work and have been together for roughly seven years. When Chris felt the moment was right, he proposed to Adriana on a casual Sunday with all her family there to celebrate!

And here they are, five years later and living the dream, getting married on an island where Adriana describes as a place “You can breathe peace and come back to the real world full of positive energy!!” We think that perfectly encapsulates this beautiful Micro Wedding in Maui!

Simply lovely is the perfect way to describe Kristen and Adam’s beach wedding in Maui. With their two sweet children at their side, our couple said “I do” in front of the sweeping views of Ironwoods Beach. Having to postpone their wedding plans for almost a year, this Big Day was highly anticipated and filled to the brim with excitement.

The Beach Wedding in Maui Location 

Ironwoods Beach perfectly encapsulates the wild beauty of the island. A Beach Wedding in Maui along this shoreline is bound to feature dramatic ocean scapes and striking rocky cliffs. Kristen always knew this was the beach she and Adam would say “I do” on:

“When we first landed in Maui in September, I took Adam and my parents (who have never been to Maui), to Ironwoods beach.  They all fell in love with it, and to this day say that was their favorite spot.  The walkway, lava rock, and views were captivating.  When it came down to picking our location, it was a no-brainer.” And we’re certain she made a perfect choice! Just look how this beautiful family glows against the shore!

Our Couple’s Story

Adam works in audiovisual installation, and Kristen is a nurse practitioner and the proud stepmom of Alyssa and Tyler. Their love story is beautiful, and Kristen does such a good job at telling it, we just have to share it in her words: “We met through my last job and knew each other for many months before going on our first date…which I remember calling my mom after and saying, ‘That was the best first date I’ve ever been on! We laughed, we skipped, and our conversation was so easy.'”

“Adam and I talk about the moment we first held hands, I remember where we were standing in downtown Cleveland and the feeling I felt when it happened.  That exact place is where he proposed two years later on the anniversary of our first date.” 

Beach Wedding in Maui

“We came to Maui in September of 2018 as a couple, along with my parents to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.  I’ll never forget floating in the pool and saying…. ‘I can picture us getting Maui’d someday.  Here with the kids and our family by our side to celebrate our love.’  Well, now we get to make that our reality.” 

A reality so lovely it’s almost dreamlike. Keep scrolling for more of this luminous couple!

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!

Our Couple’s Story

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!

Hunter and Eric’s Maui Micro Wedding was bright and tropical to the max! And speaking of “to the max,” it does not get much cuter than when their adorable toddler Eli made his grand entrance as “ring security”! With family in attendance, a spectacular view, and unbelievable weather, this Big Day was nothing short of amazing!

Sporting a suit to match his dad and sunglasses that gave him that secret service air, Eli opened the event and had the crowd giving all the “awwwws.” After Eli completed his very important mission and delivered the rings safely to dad, those “awwwws” changed to “ooooohs” as the bride made her entrance. Hunter looked spectacular in an elegant gown with floral applique and a cascading bouquet bursting with the hues of the tropics.

Hunter visited Maui throughout her life and always knew the Magic Island was where she wanted to say “I do.” The hum of the ocean and the gentle breeze paired perfectly with the sound of the guitar, adding just the right amount of melody to a relaxing yet elegant day.

Brought together by their older sisters who just “knew,” Ashley and Alex celebrated their love with a Maui Beach Elopement on the shore of Ironwoods. The day was magical with soft lighting and the crisp, salty air dreams are made of. From the moment Reverend Kuya blew the conch shell, Ashley and Alex were all smiles and joyous to be joined through marriage.

Our Couple’s Story

Ashley and Alex’s older sisters work together, and one day they got to talking and realized they both had brilliant and available younger siblings. Cue destiny! One thing led to the next, and now Ashley and Alex are proudly celebrating six years together! Great job, sis and sis! Together they have two furbabies, a dog named Maeve and Eleanor the cat. Ashley and Alex are “old souls” and love the simple things in life, a good game of Scrabble, a hike or visit to a museum, and an old-fashioned Chicago Pizza.

The Maui Beach Elopement Location

Situated on the westernmost point of the islands, Ironwoods features dramatic rock formations that resemble the cliffs of Ireland. Seen only on Maui, lava flow as recent as 1,200 years ago formed the plunging cliffs of Kapalua. Paired with the world-famous “Jaws” sized waves of the western coast, and the result is unparalleled rustic beauty.

Speaking of unparalleled beauty, how gorgeous are these Maui Beach Elopement shots?! We loved all the sweet lean-ins and gentle caresses shared between Ashley and Alex.

Brooklyn and Sergio were surrounded by beauty during their venue wedding in Hawaii. On the outlook point of Gannon’s Ceremony Knoll, our couple’s backdrop was the panoramic view of Maui’s southern shore. A handful of family watched on as Brooklyn and Sergio said “I do” in an intimate venue kissed by the island sun.

The Venue Wedding in Hawaii

The morning of the wedding ceremony was lush and vivid, with clear skies and spectacular ocean blues! Reverend Kuya opened the ceremony with a prayer and the traditional conch shell, and when Brooklyn stepped out on the lawn, even the mynah birds hushed their chatter.

We love how the elegant floral design and ribbing of Brooklyn’s bodice gown paired with her cathedral-length veil. With a custom bouquet peppered with hues of blush and pink, Brooklyn is take-your-breath-away gorgeous! In a blush tie to match his bride, Sergio looks dashing in a fitted suit of navy blue. Keep scrolling for more of this sweet couple and their beautiful day!

Our Couple’s Story

Brooklyn and Sergio both hail from the Lone Star State. Sergio is a welder and travels often for his job, but luckily he stays mostly in Texas. Brooklyn is a Registered Respiratory Therapist and is currently in charge of the pulmonary rehabilitation at the hospital in their hometown of Nocona. They look forward to starting a family after their union, but as of right now, already enjoy the company of their two Frenchy furbabies, Leila and Ivy.

Destiny got to work early with Brooklyn and Sergio, bringing them together as soon as high school. Brooklyn said, “We dated for around a year and a half our freshman and sophomore years, so we have known each other a while! Although very cheesy, he was actually my very first kiss!” Although their courtship didn’t progress past sophomore year, they kept in touch and rekindled their romance after Brooklyn graduated college in 2014.

When the time was right, Sergio proposed after hosting a small gathering of family. Brooklyn was shocked: “I think it was perfect because it completely caught me off guard. During this pandemic, we do not get dressed up very often and go places, so if we would have, I might have suspected something!” Well played, Sergio. Well played! Read on for the beach photography and all the sun a couple in love could ask for!

With only their adorable 20-month-old son in attendance, Hannah and Colby’s Hawaii Beach Elopement was filled to the brim with love and sunshine! On the shore of Poʻolenalena Beach, the weather was textbook “tropical goodness,” with soft skies and warm ocean breezes. It was truly a blessing to work with Hannah and Colby and their sweet son EJ to make this special day a reality.

The Hawaii Beach Elopement Ceremony 

In quite possibly the cutest entrance we’ve ever seen, baby EJ walked Hannah down the aisle (with a little help from Mom, of course). Wearing a form-fitting gown with bead threading and a mermaid-flair train, Hannah even had the Maui ocean temporarily pausing in its tracks. We loved her beachy hairstyle with a floral demi-circle to match her rustic Hawaiian bouquet.

Sporting a beige jacket and a cabana print button-up by Ralph Lauren, Colby looks right at home against the backdrop of palm trees and sweeping ocean views. And of course, in a blue coral-themed shirt and adorable rolled up pants to match his dad, EJ is the perfect little guest of honor. We love how professional he was in his role! How cute is that face?!

Our Couple’s Story 

Hannah has her doctorate in psychology and has been taking a much-needed break to raise their sweet toddler. She recently accepted a position to work with kids with behavioral needs at the Yellowstone Academy in their home state of Montana!

Colby is a public affairs specialist for the US Department of Interior. He’s also studied media, produced short films, and worked as a photojournalist and video producer for the US Navy. His work has been published by news outlets like CNN and last year made the cover of The Economist Magazine!

Hannah and Colby’s “meet cute” is one of the best we’ve heard! Colby was visiting his brother-in-law’s tattoo shop when his brother-in-law snapped a photo of Colby and posted it on his own Facebook page. He told all of his followers that Colby was available and looking for love, and those interested should stop by the shop!

And who should walk through the door first but Hannah herself! She admits to seeing the post beforehand but SWEARS she had an appointment. She walked in expecting a tattoo on the skin and left with one on her heart as well. Beautiful impressions like these last a lifetime. Keep scrolling for more of this sweet family!

Imagine driving up to your Hawaii Venue Wedding in the MogWest version of the Morgan 3-wheeler, dressed to the nines, and with friends and family cheering you on. That’s exactly how Milorose and Kenji made their entrance! Does it get much cooler?! Together on the lawn of Gannon’s Restaurant in Wailea, Milorose and Kenji celebrated their love through marriage. This one is a must-see!

The Hawaii Venue Wedding 

Following their roaring entrance, Milorose and Kenji stood together on the ceremonial lawn, with only south Maui’s sweeping views as their backdrop. Dressed in a two-piece gown with a lace crop-top, chiffon skirt, and a beachy up-do, Milorose easily outshone the posh designer cruiser!

Looking sleek himself, Kenji’s three-piece linen suit in aquamarine paired elegantly with his bride’s unique gown. With a Hawaii venue wedding ten years in the making, the emotions were running high. Keep scrolling for the sweet reactions!

Following the “I do’s”, we had to have one more look at that cruiser. Then, of course, a first dance on the shoreline! We took the short trip to Southside Beach with Milorose and Kenji, and there they celebrated with twirling, laughter, and a whole lot of gorgeous sunset shots!

Our Couple’s Story

Milorose works in consumer lending, while Kenji owns a bike shop. They love to bike, hike, and do anything outdoorsy. Their love story began when a mutual friend introduced them at a club while Kenji was working as a promoter.

Within months, the relationship was official, but it wasn’t until ten years later that Kenji booked a romantic hotel suite getaway and got down on his knee. Milorose mused, “Took him a while but he did it!” And in the end, that’s all that matters! It’s so clear that Milorose and Kenji have an unbreakable love that will last an eternity.

When Erin made her entrance, John’s ecstatic expression was hard to miss! Our own Reverend Kuya even offered a fist bump in celebration of the union. This is one of the biggest perks of a Destination Wedding in Maui–the fun atmosphere! It’s hard not to be joyous when you’re surrounded by the magic of the island, but add in the love of your life, and it’s pure elation!

Our Couple’s Story

Erin is a dental hygienist and John is a personal trainer and health coach. In their free time, you can find these two traveling, exercising, hiking, or cuddling with their golden retriever Leo. Erin and John attended the same high school, but didn’t end up meeting each other until after graduating college–love is tricky like that!

John proposed in March of last year, right around his birthday. He told Erin they were going out to dinner with just his family. But of course, that was only half of it! John had secretly invited her family to witness the proposal. And, as they say, the rest is history!

After a special proposal in 2020, Erica and Brian wanted something small, and since they were heading to the island already, they thought “Why not a beach wedding in Maui!” We think they made a great decision! The golden morning flooded Po’olenalena beach with vibrant light and all the warm, tropical vibes Hawaii is known for. The only thing outshining the sun? This beautiful couple!

The Beach Wedding in Maui Location 

Po’olenalena Beach features a seemingly endless stretch of golden sand. When it comes to the rich hues of a truly golden shore, it doesn’t get much better than Po’olenalena. Situated on the island’s southern coast, this beach is perfect for both morning and sunset weddings. With a panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean and plenty of natural features for photo opportunities, Po’olenalena is the perfect backdrop for a big day. Just look at how vibrant Erica and her father look on the shoreline!

Our Couple’s Story

Erica is a territory manager for an insurance company, and Brian works as a painting contractor. They love cuddling with their pitbull Layla and traveling the world to see new places. They recently put a pin on their map when they visited the Key West during the fall of 2020.

While they were at the Southernmost Point of the continental US, with 50 people in the line behind them waiting to see the landmark, Brain dropped down to one knee and opened the ring box. When telling the story, Erica said, “I. WAS. SHOCKED. It’s hard to surprise me, but mission accomplished!” Luckily a kind stranger in the line behind them captured it all on camera! And the rest of the story is right here on the blog!
