Getting Ready

One of the most private moments of Courtney and Taylor’s Maui venue wedding we captured was them getting dressed and ready for their big day. As you can imagine, the room was full of nerves and happiness! Courtney looked resplendent in her jeweled gown… we loved the beaded detail along her waistline – so beautiful! The plunging neckline was so flattering and elegant on her too…we were in awe when she was finally ready as you’ll see below!

In the spirit of the beachy ambiance, Taylor looked sharp in his light-blue linen three-piece suit! It perfectly matched the colors of the sky and ocean! When get got to the altar, he was smiling ear to ear, waiting for his bride-to-be!

Once the ceremony began, our charming couple exchanged their sacred vows. Our beautiful couple chose the grassy lawn at Wailea Beach Resort for their Maui venue wedding. This is a fantastic location if you’re looking for an oceanfront property with a designated lawn area for a ceremony. It’s the best of both a traditional venue and a beach wedding! We couldn’t recommend it enough!

With cheers and kisses from their nearest and dearest, Courtney and Taylor were officially husband and wife! Also, during their final ceremony moments, we couldn’t stop staring at the gorgeous tropical floral displays on the arch! These details made their day uniquely their own; their Maui venue wedding was all they could have ever dreamed of!

As you can see, their family and friends were so thrilled for them too! They were a lively bunch! Surrounded by the most important people in their lives on one of the most significant day of their lives was endearing to witness…

After their elegant ceremony, we walked down with our lovely couple to the rocky cliffs by the water. This was the moment they truly looked forward to! Our newlyweds love the ocean and island lifestyle so they wanted to capture a few precious moments together with the sound of the crashing waves…don’t they look beautiful together!?

These lovebirds couldn’t have asked for a better day! There were hardly any clouds in the sky and it was a bright and warm morning. We walked further down the beach to another scenic backdrop, trying to avoid Courtney’s train from getting wet! Nevertheless, they looked so happy together!

As you can see in the photos, we love the variety of this location! There are ample palm trees and secluded spots on the beach to capture the intimate moments of our newlyweds. Our lovely couple is pure tropical elegance in these photos! And to our surprise, Taylor wore the aloha spirit in his suit lining!

Fate had a hand in the meeting of these two! Delila and Micah’s Maui elopement was a private and special affair. We couldn’t help but feel the spark and chemistry between our couple! Even our photographer gets just as excited as our couples do on the day! How could you not?! They radiated happiness and warmth throughout their entire private ceremony. Seeing their faces light up the first moment they saw each other was a joy to capture – absolutely priceless!

Keep reading to see peeks of their big day…

How They Met

Believe it or not, Micah was actually training Delila for a position at their local high school. Since it was a professional relationship to start, Delila was taken aback that Micah actually had the nerve to ask her out! She was literally swept off her feet as he proposed to her while skydiving from a plane from 14,400 ft! As fate would have it, these two went from the high school halls to eloping in Maui. They have a sweet blended family of 8 boys and 3 daughters who are overjoyed for their parents!

They were actually quite nervous on the day! Although, we think that those nerves wore off in the Maui sunshine and salty breeze! The embroidery on Delila’s dress and the pop of pink of Micah’s suit were so unique! It’s so refreshing when our couples have a little bit of flair and fun on their wedding day! Effortless style paired with carefree elegance is the perfect choice for a Maui elopement on the beach. It was no wonder why they chose Maui to elope because Delila loves the Hawaiian culture, natural beauty, and the ocean!

Delila and Micah chose Maluaka Beach on the south side for their Maui elopement. We prize this location because of its long stretches of white sandy beaches and its amazing sunsets! The couple loved the peace and tropical backdrop of the lava rocks and palm trees. They are simply glowing! They were so comfortable in front of the camera with each other at their side. Their simple and relaxed Maui elopement was exactly what they envisioned!

It was a gorgeous afternoon in Kihei. The palms were swaying in the gentle trade winds. The sunlight dappled through the tall, old trees. The gardens at the Rustic Hawaiian Ruins were bright and blossoming. And Chaney & Bryan were married in a memorable and beautiful Maui Venue Wedding!

The couple was stunning: relaxed yet whimsical, romantic yet fun. We loved working with these two and are excited to share some images from their unforgettable ceremony. Take a look!

Our Journey, Our Memories

There is so much to love about Chaney & Bryan’s Maui Venue Wedding. Chaney’s bridal style is elegant yet unique, and their wedding vibe is earthy and timeless. Plus, they’re so full of love and trust — it was a joy to see them commit their lives to each other!

Chaney & Bryan made their wedding even more unique by having a guest officiate their ceremony. This allowed them to bring so much personalization and heart to their service, and they had us all in tears.

But how did beautiful Chaney and adorable Bryan end up falling in love and having a Maui Venue Wedding?

It all started in 2015, when they were coworkers at Costco. They bonded when working the night shift together, and eventually discovered a spark between them.

They had worked together a few times when Chaney nearly tripped while cleaning the floors. Was it the near fall that left her breathless? No, it was Bryan catching her.

They soon realized they were dating, and as years passed, they found themselves in a joyful, loving relationship.

After getting engaged on a fun-filled trip to San Fransisco, it was time to start planning their wedding.

They had visited Maui before, for a brief getaway just before Covid shutdowns. Looking back on their memories here and hoping to have a full wedding experience with a small group of loved ones, they put it all together: a Maui venue wedding would be the perfect celebration for them!

The Rustic Hawaiian Ruins – A Garden Setting for a Maui Venue Wedding

Chaney & Bryan married at the Rustic Hawaiian Ruins, an outdoor chapel and garden in Kihei. We love how the trees and landscaping keep this area cooler than other wedding venues in Maui. This fun group was headed out to a dinner cruise after the ceremony, so we planned an afternoon ceremony at this shaded venue.

There is a gorgeous altar framed by tall palms and an old rock wall, and winding paths take couples and their guests through an abundance of tropical plant life. We loved having Chaney & Bryan’s Maui Venue Wedding at this dreamy location.

After the beautiful pair officially became husband & wife, we took some romantic couples portraits around the ruins. These two are young, in love, newly married, and can’t keep their hands off each other — so we absolutely loved photographing them! All we needed to do was give them a few suggestions and prompts, and they were ready to get photographed.

Everything about Chaney & Bryan’s Maui venue wedding was a joy, and we’re so glad we could coordinate it!

Maui Beach Elopement

It was a beautiful Morning at Baldwin Beach: The sky was bright and blue, the waves rolled gently to shore, and Ashley & William got married. We loved this Maui Beach Elopement and are excited to share these stunning images!

From heartfelt vows to playful portraits, from nervous arrivals to that joyful pronouncement, we’ve put together some of our favorite memories of Ashley & William’s Maui wedding day! Check them out below!

From Preschool to Forever

Ashley & William grew up in the same town and went to preschool together, so they’ve pretty much known each other their whole lives! But what brought them from toddling cuties to lifelong partners? Their love story began in high school — They started dating when they were seniors and have been together ever since.

Years passed, and they eventually joined us for a Maui Beach Elopement. They got engaged in 2018. It was a quiet Christmas Day proposal, perfect for this private couple. Not ones to stage big productions or go over the top, Ashley & William wanted their wedding to be simple yet special.

We’re so glad we could help them plan a wedding that was right for them. Baldwin Beach was a vibrant and scenic setting, and Richardo officiated a heartfelt ceremony, complete with Hawaiian traditions and a beautiful blessing.

Ashley & William have so many loved ones supporting them from back home, and now they get to share beautiful Maui Beach Elopement photos with them. They’re a stunning couple who brought so much life and emotion to each image!

The Right Time & Place for a Maui Beach Elopement

We love morning weddings at Baldwin Beach. The water takes on a bright, turquoise color and the West Maui Mountains stand tall in the distance. There’s soft golden sand here, along with lush greenery and lots of space to explore.

It was so much fun to spend the morning with Ashley & William. We included lots of time for newlywed portraits during their Maui Beach Elopement, so they walked along the shoreline, cooled off in the shade, and embraced the North Shore winds that carried them warmth and blessings.

As the sun lifted higher into the sky, it was time to bid aloha to the gorgeous pair. Though this was their first time visiting Maui, we know it won’t be their last. Now that they’ve had a Maui Beach Elopement, Ashley & William will be drawn to the islands again and again, each time finding a new adventure and romance.

The island’s southern shores were an idyllic setting for Regina & Michael’s Maui Wedding. They’re a cute couple, full of energy and love, and Southside beach gave them a spacious, pretty spot to celebrate with their family.

We had such a good time planning this beach ceremony, and we were excited when the time finally came to meet Regina & Michael. They were as lovely in person as they were during our virtual planning!

Now it’s time to share some highlights from their gorgeous Maui wedding — check out some favorite images that Karma Hill photography captured!

Anywhere is Paradise With You

Reverend Kuya Robert officiated Regina & Michael’s wedding ceremony. He included faith-based and Hawaiian elements, creating a spiritual experience grounded in their surroundings. Plus, it seemed so personal for Regina & Michael, like Kuya was speaking directly to their soul.

We are all about soulful, beautiful couples, so we’re obsessing over Regina & Michael’s Maui wedding. They seemed simply happy to marry in such a gorgeous place, and their joy shines through in each image.

Keep scrolling to see even more favorite memories from their ceremony!

These Glowing Moments

After Regina & Michael became officially married, there was still a lot of fun to be had! First, we needed some sweet family shots, so we got all kinds of group combinations there on the beach. Then it was time to get some newlywed photos.

This is the highlight of each Maui wedding, because it gives the couple a chance to unwind and take in their surroundings, plus we get to know them even better.

The Wailea sunset was gorgeous this evening — glowing and colorful, peaceful yet vibrant. It’s the kind of setting that invites anyone to step into romance. But as a freshly married couple, Regina & Michael were one with nature’s beauty.

Soon it was time to bid aloha to the stunning couple. They were off to celebrate with their adorable guests, and we were left with wonderful memories of their Maui wedding!

Vanessa & Greg had such a dreamy Hawaii Destination Wedding. The setting sun framed the couple as they shared their vows, and the ocean backdrop highlighted their peaceful and ever-growing love. There were laughter, tears, and lots of joy. Everything a wedding in Maui should be!

Now it’s time to share their gorgeous Hawaii wedding photos — We’re so excited to share some of our favorite moments from this Maui wedding!

Called to the Islands

Vanessa & Greg married at Gannon’s, a gorgeous Maui wedding venue in Wailea. They were joined by a small group of loved ones who were so excited to celebrate with them.

As their Maui wedding coordinator, we wanted every detail to be perfect. We kept Vanessa & Greg from seeing each other until her grand entrance, and Karma Hill Photography captured the emotional moment.

Vanessa’s best friend Pierce officiated their ceremony. He shared their love story, led them in sweet vows, and had the honor of pronouncing them husband & wife.

We loved learning about Vanessa & Greg and what led them to their Hawaii Destination Wedding. They’ve been together nearly a decade — they met just before college and hit it off right away. So they’ve been through a lot together and have built a strong foundation for a wonderful marriage.

Vanessa’s parents married on Maui, and the islands have had a special place in both Vanessa & Greg’s hearts for a long time. They always feel drawn to Hawaii, so marrying here was a no-brainer.

We think it all worked out great for them! They had such a beautiful ceremony and got great photos too!

Elegant Simplicity – A Hawaii Destination Wedding

Vanessa & Greg have great taste, and they picked out beautiful details for their wedding. Vanessa’s pastel bouquet mirrored the colors of the sunset against Gannon’s lush hillside. Her stunning trumpet gown featured lace detailing and off-shoulder straps. And Greg looked dapper in his floral tie and matching boutonniere.

After their ceremony, the two enjoyed time at the venue with Karma Hill Photography. Gannon’s gets excellent sunset views, and their pictures were glowy and romantic.

Vanessa & Greg are so comfortable with each other, but also have a giddiness about them. It’s like they had known each other for ten years but were seeing each other in a new light. It was a joy to be around, and we’re still mesmerized by their Hawaii Destination wedding.

On the sunny shores of Maluaka Beach, Allison & Brian promised a lifetime of love. Their Maui Wedding was such a dream: sparkling blue water, soft golden sand, and a stunning couple.

It’s been a week since we shared this afternoon with them, and now it’s time to share some of their wedding photos. Check out some of our favorite moments below!

Worth Fighting For

Allison & Brian’s love story begins years ago, when they met through friends. Together, they’ve built a life anyone would be proud of. Their cute daughter Ella is the light of their lives. They stay busy with their careers but prioritize family time.

And so, with this foundation, they decided it was time to take the next big step. Brian proposed spontaneously in Vegas. They were there for a UFC fight, but he chose a romantic Bellagio setting for the proposal.

When wedding planning began, Allison knew she wanted somewhere scenic and fun.

“I wanted something where I could wake up somewhere breathtaking on an important day in my life,” Allison told us. And Brian was all for it too!

So that’s how these two ended up in Hawaii for the very first time, having a Maui wedding with their nearest and dearest.

A Joyful Dance at a Maui Wedding

Rev. Richardo led Allison & Brian through an emotional and vibrant ceremony. After he pronounced them husband & wife, it was time for them to share a first dance on the beach.

CJ Helekahi provided beautiful mele for the couple and their guests, and they chose “Better Together” by Jack Johnson as their first dance song.

But the dancing didn’t end once the newlyweds moved on. CJ was joined by talented Meleana from Manutea Nui E, who graced everyone with the beautiful gift of hula while they enjoyed their time on the beach for the Maui wedding.

We couldn’t send the guests away without some group portraits, so we spent time getting photos with friends and family before spending some alone time with Allison & Brian.

Maluaka Beach Magic

Maluaka Beach was a dreamy setting for these love birds. They were able to wed steps away from the ocean and then take portraits along the shoreline. They cooled off in the shade of a tropical tree, walked along the water’s edge, and stole kisses at every turn.

Though the scenery at a Maui wedding is unbeatable, it’s the couple that really brings the magic. Allison & Brian were so full of love and life — it radiates through each image and each sweet word they spoke to each other.

Ted & Jeremy had such a nice, relaxed wedding in Maui. We met them just before sunset at beautiful Maluaka Beach, where they held hands, shared vows, and became husband and husband. They were so kind to work with, and we’re grateful we could coordinate this special day for them.

Check out some of their Maui Wedding photos below and join us in congratulating the newlyweds!

From Chicago to Hawaii

Ted & Jeremy are Chicago residents who love visiting Maui. They enjoy the slower pace, the great weather, and the chance to escape their busy Chicago lives.

Recently, they’ve especially enjoyed talking with Maui locals and residents, learning about the island’s history, and appreciating Hawaiian culture. So their Hawaii-inspired ceremony with Reverend Richardo was a great chance to affirm their love of island traditions.

The two handsome grooms exchanged lei with each other and then presented flower lei to each of their guests. They had a small group of family and friends with them — they were all excited to be a part of a wedding in Maui!

Marrying in Style – a Wedding in Maui

Ted & Jeremy incorporated beachy florals into their ceremony as well. Dellables created two arrangements made of spiraling driftwood, small globes, and romantic flowers. Their female guests wore sandy neutral tones, which went perfectly with their ivory and blush arrangements.

After their ceremony, Karma Hill Photography captured some super dreamy couples portraits around the beach. We scheduled their wedding and portraits with golden hour, so they got glowy shots as the sun set over the ocean.

Throughout their wedding in Maui, Ted & Jeremy were romantic and playful, always ready to joke around and share a kiss — just the kind of couple we love working with!

The Celebration Continues

After their ceremony and portraits, Ted & Jeremy were off to the Four Seasons, where they had dinner reservations with their guests. The restaurants at the resort are a great place to celebrate any special occasion, but especially a wedding!

But their celebrations aren’t limited to their wedding in Maui! Soon these two will have a full reception back in Chicago, so they still have a lot to look forward to.

And while we were bummed to see our time with them at the beach come to a close, we know they’ll be returning to Maui soon to soak up the sun, bask in their romantic bliss, and learn even more about our island home!

As the sun dipped low over into the ocean, Mercedes & Alex found their spot on the sand to enjoy an understated and elegant Maui Beach Wedding. There was beauty in the simplicity. These two are gorgeous inside and out, and the fuss-free ceremony allowed their magnetism and passion to truly shine.

“Wish You Were Here”

Mercedes & Alex kept the guest count small for their Maui Beach wedding. It was their children and granddaughter who attended in person. But they were also supported by friends and family from all over.

They wanted to include all their loved ones in their special day, so they booked our “Wish You Were Here” elopement option, which recorded their ceremony for same-day streaming. What a sweet way to ensure your ceremony stretches beyond Maui’s shoreline!

A Hawaiian Inspired Ceremony for a Maui Beach Wedding

Reverend Richardo officiated such a warm and heartfelt ceremony for Mercedes & Alex. He included Hawaiian-inspired traditions, like a lei exchange chant. We could feel the embrace of the island as he offered a blessing over them, and their vows were so sweet.

Small beach weddings like this one allow us to get to know the couple, learn about their story, and understand their journey to this moment. It makes it all that much sweeter when they receive their final blessing and share that first kiss as husband & wife.

After the ceremony, Mercedes & Alex took some photos with their kids. Their granddaughter Hazel was ready to steal the show (and our hearts!). We’re so glad she got to be a part of their wedding, as we know it made the moment and its memories that much sweeter.

Next, it was time for the newlyweds to get romantic portraits around the beach. Polo Beach is such a pretty spot. We got pictures with palm trees, lava rocks, emerald green shrubbery, and of course, that dreamy late afternoon glow!

This was such a fun Maui Beach Wedding, and we’re so grateful to be a part of it. Now we get to relive the excitement again and again by looking at these stunning photos!

Why They Had A Hawaii Beach Wedding

Annie and Brad knew they wanted to have a destination wedding on the beach. Then they chose Maui because Annie had never experienced the island for herself, unlike Brad, who has! It was the perfect opportunity for our delightful duo to have a new adventure together and get married! Then, Brad’s family was in favor of the location as well.

First to arrive were Raouf and the forty-five guests! When it was time for the ceremony to begin, the bridal party entered first. The bridesmaids and groomsmen walked down the aisle. Next, it was the flower girl and the ringer bearer’s turns. Lastly, our bride was escorted down the walkway by her father!

Where They Had Their Maui Venue Wedding

Trinity By The Sea was the location for this wedding, and this spot always creates a fairytale scene for events! Built in the 1800s — the Rustic Hawaiian Ruins are the perfect balance between vintage and bohemian. Surrounding the altar are coral brick walls; they effortlessly enhance the dreamy background. Then the lush foliage provided a picturesque and tropical backdrop for every shot! Most importantly, the evening sun’s rays peaked between the trees and shined brilliantly.

After Kahu Ricardo Hanako’o pronounces Raouf and Senait as husband and wife, the celebrations continued! Our luminous newlyweds had a mini reception with their loved ones. The cake cutting and sparkling toast were intimate and romantic. Above all, you can tell this stunning pair is enjoying their first moment as a married couple!
