Paige and Andrew had a sweet and simple gathering for the special day! Their venue wedding in Maui took place at Five Palms Restaurant in South Kihei. It’s a beautiful spot that overlooks the beach and ocean while accommodating larger group sizes.

Five Palms on Keawekapu Beach was the perfect ceremony location for their friends and family who were able to make the trip. Their loved ones were so incredibly happy that they were able to have their dream wedding in Hawaii. Unfortunately, Andrew’s sister wasn’t able to make it in person but she stayed up till 3:00 in the morning to make sure she could be there for them on Facetime. We could hear her warm wishes and love that she was sending over the phone to them. It’s very apparent that these two not only share so much love but they are loved by so many!!

Five Palms grassy lawn directly ocean front is one of our favorite locations for a venue wedding in Maui with easy beach access.

Paige & Andrew are both in the medical field. Paige is a Registered Nurse and Doctorate of Nurse Practitioner Student and Andrew is a Medical Student! We honor and thank them for everything that they have done through this pandemic. For a long time they’ve put other lives first, but today, their love comes first!

Paige was a stunning bride with a humorous and fun personality to be around. She made taking her portraits as easy as it gets, willing to be adventurous and explore the lava rock terrain. She also  communicated what was most important to her, the beach shots. We made sure to get some breathtaking wide shots and focus especially on the beautiful Maui backdrop.

Paige giggled with love every time she looked at her husband Andrew. It made for some perfect, natural smiles and moments that really captured their love for each other. 

Mahalo Paige & Andrew for choosing us to make your dream venue wedding in Maui happen! You were such a joy to work with and we wish you many years of love and happiness!

Katie & Marcus are such a determined pair!! Nothing was going to get in the way of their love!! Planning their glamorous Maui beach wedding with us was their SEVENTH attempt at getting married in 2020! 6 other attempts at planning their wedding before lucky number 7!! Nothing was going to stop this amazing couple from their “I do” moment.

Just to highlight a few, their dream wedding was originally planned to happen in England but after the shutdown in England they decided to plan everything and move forward with having a wedding at home in California. They had the date set and deposits down for all their vendors… and then… California shut down again and had to cancel all of their wedding plans! Then we came in the picture to help them plan the most beautiful and easy-going Maui wedding they could’ve imagined. They were over the moon to have their wedding happen just before the year’s end and we feel the same way!

Katie was absolutely gorgeous and glowing on her wedding day with the most beautiful earrings and hairpiece accents to tie in all the details of her beautiful wedding gown. Spontaneously they decided to add some extra time at their hotel because when they arrived they saw how beautiful the grounds were at the Westin.

We had so much fun exploring the grounds and taking photos with the flamingos in the background.

At the very end, the Karma Hill Photography Team got really creative and captured a breathtaking portrait of them behind the waterfall at the Westin with some flash photography! These shots are epic!! We had so many varieties of backdrops and beautiful lighting we know that Katie and Marcus will absolutely love their photos we got during their special day.

Katie and Marcus had the most spectacular moon to close out their glamorous Maui beach wedding! We were able to capture it directly behind them on the cliffs at Ironwoods. Now that doesn’t happen every day!

Thank you so much Katie & Marcus for letting us be a part of your Maui beach wedding. We’d say that all the hurdles you had to jump through were just to ensure the perfect wedding day for you!!

This Pennsylvania couple is as sweet as they come! Not only were they a dream to work with while planning their beach elopement in Maui, but they also thoughtfully brought chocolate bars from their home state for their vendor team. Now that’s next-level sweetness!

Jennifer and Michael chose a morning ceremony for their Maui elopement ceremony. We love this option as it is typically cooler, the beaches are far less busy and then you have the whole day to enjoy together as a married couple! Elopements are all about breaking the rules and doing whatever you want, who says you have to go to dinner after your ceremony? Maybe a morning snorkel would be even more special!

Just look at how giddy these two are to get married, we just adore their chemistry.

Jennifer looked stunning in her Adrianna Papell illusion back dress from Madame Bridal in Boynton Beach Florida

Another great thing about an elopement? You can splash and have fun without worrying about heading to your reception dripping wet. We love that these two didn’t mind letting loose a bit and having fun on the beach. Plus, it’s refreshing after being in the sun! 🙂

Jennifer and Michael, Mahalo for choosing Simple Maui Wedding as your wedding team! We were honored to be a part of your day. We hope to see you back in Maui in the future!!

Madison and Austin have known each other from a very young age. They always had an undeniable connection and friendship and as they grew older they just grew closer and closer. This is a true definition of soul mates and these two were lucky enough to find each other early on in life. Many people spend a lifetime trying to find a love like this. We feel so blessed to have met them on this big step in their lives when they shared their commitment to each other during their Maui venue wedding. After meeting them and spending time with them we truly believe that love knows no age!!

We began documenting their special day at the bridal suite at Steeple House. It offered a private setting for Madison to slip into her dress and reflect on the moment she’d been waiting for. We snagged a couple shots of Austin prior to the wedding and we just love his classic black and white tuxedo and look.

Shortly after they stepped outside to the beautiful setup just out front of Steeple House. This spot highlights a secluded yet picturesque setting for our bride and groom. Their ceremony was officiated by Reverend Joe and then they were off to celebrate with family portraits and then couples portraits! You don’t want to miss all the gorgeousness in the pictures below so keep scrolling!!!

Madison & Austin shared their own personal vows with each other. They were so heartfelt and you could see and feel Madison tearing up with happiness. You could see just how much love and admiration Madison has for her husband and family. Austin’s mom was tearing up in the ceremony as well and you could just see how filled she was with joy that her son was marrying his best friend and partner for life.

Madison & Austin were the sweetest couple! She radiated with the love she received from Austin. You could tell he doted on her with everything he had and loved her deeply. And the same went for Madison and the love she felt for Austin.

We explored the top of the cliffs and Madison was the most easy going bride letting the train of her dress get dirty and embracing the adventurous landscape Ironwoods has to offer. We know they will love their timeless wedding photos that will speak wonders of their love for generations to come!

Mahalo Madison & Austin for allowing us to be a part of your special day! We hope that you enjoyed everything about it and we look forward to seeing you in the future!!

This sweet Brooklyn couple traveled long and far with many restrictions in place in order to make their dream Maui elopement a reality! Getting to Maui is no easy task with all our regulations but for anyone willing to put in the work, we are so thankful to have them! We feel blessed to have been a part of Stephanie & Murad’s Maui wedding!

Murad’s favorite band is Counting Crows and he always knew he’d love a girl who loves Counting Crows just as much as he does. When he came across a profile on OkCupid that listed her favorite band as Counting Crows he had to send Stephanie a message! He was so excited that he sent her a novel long message and somewhere in there asking what her favorite song was. She replied with 2 words “favorite song ?? ;)”  If it wasn’t for the winky face he would have thought it a lost cause! Obviously it wasn’t a lost cost, it was a means to a deeper connection. To think this is where they are today is pure joy!!

Stephanie and Murad shared sweet personal vows the expressed just how perfect of a match they are.  We adore their Vow Books and enjoyed every minute of their words to each other.

Our cake package offers a sweet treat on your wedding day while capturing the traditional ‘cake cutting’ pictures.

We are so honored to have been a part of your Maui elopement Stephanie & Murad! Thank you for making the long journey and celebrating with your toes in the sand!! We hope to see you in Maui again soon!

Kristen & Kevin are a laid back couple from the East coast! They decided on Maui beach elopement for their wedding. They knew Maui was the perfect combination of beautiful and adventurous and seemed perfect for a wedding/honeymoon combination. We couldn’t agree more and we are so happy they chose us to coordinate their Maui beach elopement!

On the day of the wedding, we encountered some rain at Ironwoods Beach, their original location choice. We could either get them married in the pouring rain, which really isn’t as bad as it sounds or chase the sunshine!! They chose sunshine.

In Hawaii you can have really bad weather at one spot and just 10 minutes down the road is a beautiful sunshiny day! That’s clear by the pictures below. You would never know that a storm loomed just a few miles away! Lahaina Shores beach turned out to be absolute perfection for their wedding day. Gorgeous blue sky, very little beachgoers, a stunning sunset, they couldn’t have asked for a better setting!

Kristen & Kevin met at a friends wedding. They had an instant connection and the rest is history. They are now 2 cats and a puppy connected and building a beautiful life together!

Kevin proposed to Kristen on a romantic trip to Savannah, Georgia for 4th of July last year. It’s clear that these two adore each other and have many more romantic trips ahead of them!

Congratulations on your Maui wedding Kristen & Kevin! Thank you for choosing us to be a part of it!

When Molly & Cody came to the harsh realization that a wedding back home with all of their family and friends couldn’t be possible for quite some time they decided on an elopement in Maui! They were going to be here for a vacation anyway so why not just seal the deal? We couldn’t agree more! There will be time for celebration with the whole gang in the years to come but don’t make love wait any longer!!

This sweet pair met back in college through mutual friends. They dated for about 6 years all the while knowing that they were each others forever! Cody proposed to Molly at a park in California that overlooked the ocean. It was intimate and romantic and Molly just knew she would be marrying the man of her dreams!

Reverend Kimo officiated their ceremony making them laugh and smile throughout. His ceremonies are so genuine and sweet but adding that moment of humor really makes them one of the best on Maui!

As Molly & Cody read their own personal vows to each other there wasn’t a dry eye on the beach.

Thank you so much Molly & Cody for choosing us for your Maui elopement. We enjoyed meeting you and hope to see you again in Maui soon!

Molly & Chris are a sweet couple from Illinois that decided on a wedding in Maui! Like most couples who marry here, the beach is the best option for an intimate ceremony. The beautiful ocean and the long white sandy beaches are one of a kind here in Maui.

Molly & Chris had everything planned for a Lahaina Shores beach ceremony. It was super convenient and beautiful; they were looking forward to sharing their vows there. Then mother nature brought the high tide and you could barely see the beach they had a decision to make. Get married with their toes in the water, instead of the sand, or change locations to DT Fleming? They chose DT Fleming and we think it was a perfect choice. Check out the pictures below to see all the gorgeousness that seemed meant to be!

The beach was totally empty except for some firemen doing a beach training session along the shore. They stopped their training and cheered for Molly & Chris as they were pronounced husband and wife! Well played Maui Fire Department! It was almost as if we planned for you to be there!

Taking a walk on the beach, being present in the moment is a must after their stunning ceremony! DT Fleming is such a gorgeous location for a wedding in Hawaii. The gorgeous white sand and rock outcroppings provide a gorgeous back for the perfect ceremony photos.

Mahalo for choosing Simple Maui Wedding Molly & Chris! We wish you two many years of love and happiness!!

Malaya & Jarquece are first-timers to Hawaii and we can’t think of a better time to visit than for their Maui Wedding! It was a perfect afternoon for sharing nuptials along the shores of the Pacific Ocean. The sun was shining, the breeze was light, and their close family and friends were in attendance to share in the moment with them! It was so important to them to give their families a different experience for their wedding and bringing them to Maui was just that!

Malaya & Jarquece are high school sweethearts. They knew each other for a few years and became close friends before they actually started dating. It became clear to Jarquece that he wanted Malaya to be his princess forever. He proposed to her back in 2018 on a trip to Miami for her birthday. These two seem to enjoy the warmer, tropical weather, and we’re so glad they decided on Maui for their wedding.

This gorgeous couple chose 5 Palms, which sits right in front of Keawekapu Beach. It’s really the best of both worlds because you can enjoy an intimate ceremony with your close family and friends, then walk right out to the beach for pictures. We really enjoyed spending time with them and getting to know their sweet family! We hope you enjoy the pictures of their special wedding day.

Malaya looked absolutely stunning and she took Jarquece’s breath away as she walked down the aisle to him. Jarquece was looking pretty dapper himself in his maroon suit, Louis Vuitton belt, and white sneakers! Loving the unique style here!!

This Maui sunset was one for the record books on Malaya & Jarquece’s Maui wedding day. The purples and oranges painted across the sky created an epic backdrop for their couple’s portraits.

Mahalo Malaya & Jarquece for choosing Simple Maui Wedding! You were such a pleasure to work with and we wish the very best for you two!!

Marian & Timothy’s Beach Wedding in Maui was a lovely example of how an overcast day can turn into one of the most beautiful sunsets. The lighting was soft and dreamy, and the ocean gently hummed. Although they were surprised at how many loved ones were able to fly out to support them, it makes perfect sense to us… everyone wants to cheer on this awesome couple!!

Marian & Timothy decided to say “I do” on Maui because they loved the idea of wrapping a getaway and a wedding into one spectacular package of Aloha! And the scenery at Maluaka Beach did not disappoint. Golden sands, steel gray waters, and a rocky embankment framed with greenery, there was no shortage of gorgeous scenic backdrops!

Reverend Kimo officiated the ceremony, opening the event with the deep, trumpeting sound of the conch shell. As Marian made her way to her waiting groom, she was nothing but luminous in a couture gown designed by a talented friend.

This tender moment says it all… a look shared between friends and partners, both deeply and truly in love…

Following the “I do,” our couple had their first dance right there on the oceanfront. We can’t get enough of how beautiful Marian is! Her gown perfectly embodies the churning white water, and Timothy’s aquamarine slacks add just the right “pop” against the backdrop.

Beauty incarnate? … Most definitely!!

As the day came to a close, the sun lit up the sky in a brilliant golden light, perfectly mirroring this couple’s luminous love…

Mahalo nui loa, Marian & Timothy, for sharing your Special Day with Simple Maui Wedding. We wish you all the very best and an abundance of beautiful days and glowing smiles in the future ahead…

Nicole & Paul’s Venue Wedding in Maui was flooded with natural lighting and showcased glistening panoramic views of the Hawaiian coast. When they met online almost 3 years ago, they knew that they were destined for forever. And what better way to celebrate finding the love of your life than with a breezy Maui wedding with your closest friends and family in attendance?

Our couple did just that! Nicole has always dreamed of saying “I do” on an island beach, and we were honored she chose Simple Maui Wedding to help make her Big Day fantasy a reality! Follow us along as we join Nicole and Paul on this very special occasion…

Bailey was the most adorable flower girl, full of energy and dynamic smiles! And she made sure that those petals blanketed the aisle. Talk about a girl on a mission!

Framed by her son and father, Nicole was the embodiment of love and beauty. Wearing a lace gown with a princess cut, this bride is gorgeous and then some!

First, Nicole’s oldest son walked her down the aisle, and then her youngest officiated the marriage. It truly was a family event, a ceremony that was as beautiful as the Maui beach it took place on…

Keep scrolling for all of the heartwarming captures!

Nicole was hoping for a dramatic sunset… and although it’s not fiery, this sky is nothing short of dramatic!!

Mahalo nui loa, Nicole & Paul, for sharing your incredible and lovely Venue wedding in Maui with us. It was an honor to be your wedding planner, and we wish you all the very best in the years ahead…

Tiffany & Scott’s Maui Wedding on the Beach was overflowing with elegance… and cuteness! Together for over 10 years, these Los Angeles lovebirds have two adorable boys in the nest, and their wild antics and bubbling personalities were so refreshing to capture!

Tiffany & Scott met through a mutual friend, and not long after, Scott proposed at their favorite restaurant. While they were originally planning on eloping with just their two young sons, they decided they couldn’t say “I do” without the presence of their closest friends and family. And what a funloving event it turned out to be!

Speaking of funloving, how incredibly dapper are these two young gents?! We’re loving the suspenders and bowties… not to mention those adorable faces!

During the ceremony, Tiffany & Scott exchanged heartfelt vows. There are few things as touching as the honest sentiments shared between a couple who have grown together and cherished one another throughout the years…

How gorgeous is this shot?! We are speechless … So, we’ll let Tiffany & Scott’s Maui beach wedding photographer do the talking:

“I felt like every photo I took was amazing just because Tiffany was one of the most beautiful brides, and her family just looked so great together from the outfits to the hair–everything just really was beautiful.” -Tenessa

And we couldn’t agree more!

Mahalo nui loa, Tiffany & Scott, for trusting us with your Maui wedding on the beach. We wish you all the joy in the years ahead and send our fondest Aloha…
