Rachel & Michael’s initial wedding plan didn’t include a Maui elopement. They originally planned to get married in their home state of Minnesota. With the pandemic all around them and many family members being too high-risk to attend a wedding they decided an elopement in Maui was sounding pretty amazing!! We couldn’t agree more. There will be many years to come where you can celebrate with friends and family but this day, was just for you two!!

How Did They Meet?

Rachel & Michael had an instant connection when they first met. Like so many other couples they met in the world of online dating. They shared many messages and talks on the phone and both knew that there was something there. Once they finally were able to meet in person they were never again apart!

They have enjoyed many firsts together like their first vacation, their first puppy, who is a Siberian Husky named Captain, their first (and hopefully only) pandemic! lol! These two have really created a special bond and it means the world to us that they continued their story on the beaches of Maui.

What a special day we had with Saleena & Todd! Their Maui venue wedding was absolutely stunning in every way and we’re so excited to relive it here with you through photos!

The Steeple House in Kapalua offers a private setting while still overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean. The bridal suite provided a cool setting for Saleena to put the final touches before her walk down the aisle. She looked so gorgeous and we really loved capturing all her beauty and excitement. She walked out of the Steeple House to the ceremony setting where Todd and her friends and family awaited her arrival. Their stunning ceremony was officiated by Saleena’s brother which made the vows even more special. Afterward they all celebrated with group portraits and some cake!!

This photo really portrays the setting for Saleena & Todd’s outdoor wedding experience. It was a beautiful event shared with family and friends with a gorgeous blue ocean in the background while being surrounded by warm temperatures and a beautiful green landscape.

The

Saleena & Todd’s hook up was such a sweet (and direct) story. Saleena’s mom actually hooked the two up! She went right up to Todd in the shop they worked together at and asked if he was single? Mom got his number for Saleena so she texted him later that week. The two have been inseparable ever since! Thanks mom!! Nice work!

Saleena & Todd decided that on their wedding day they wanted a few portraits of the two of them but it was also very important for them to celebrate with their family. They chose to add on another 1 hour session the very next day so that they could get some more memorable shots just the two of them. We really enjoyed having the extra time with them, they were relaxed, happy, and looking amazing for their portraits!!

Mahalo for choosing us to coordinate your beautiful Maui wedding Saleena & Todd! It was a gorgeous day celebrating a gorgeous couple and we hope you enjoyed yourselves as much as we did!

When Makayla and Kevin met at the flooring store they worked at, they would never guess they would build their own hardwood flooring business together as well as their family! This sweet couple has two adorable girls that loved seeing mom and dad all dressed up getting married. We loved being a part of their Maui venue wedding and were happy that we could create a romantic intimate day for them and their family.

Makayla and Kevin were planning on a big wedding back home in San Diego but obviously, that became impossible, so they re-focused and decided an intimate wedding in Maui would be a lovely way to get married and still make it special. We could not agree more, Maui is the perfect place to host a small wedding while creating beautiful memories.

Makayla wanted to do a first look with her dad before the ceremony. We just love this! Look at the expression on his face when he sees his little girl for the first time as a bride! He happiness and joy on his face is priceless.

Mahalo Makayla and Kevin for choosing us to be your Maui wedding planners, we loved being a part of your day!!

Erin & Jono met by chance back in 2016 at Baja Cantina where Erin was Jono’s waitress! It may have taken a few attempts to actually get Erin on board but eventually, she fell for him too! We feel so fortunate to have met this sweet pair and honored to be a part of their Maui elopement!

A shared love for cycling brought them together with many conversations (and challenges) to talk about. He biked to the restaurant they met at and Erin asked “Oh yeah, how far?” to which he replied “5 miles!” “Psh that’s nothing” she replied. “I bike 10 miles to and from here every day!” It was that moment Jono KNEW this was the girl for him! They have shared many biking trips together and moved across the country. Through all of their adventures, their love for each other has grown stronger each day.

There is absolutely nothing like a brides smile on her wedding day! Erin looked stunning and her smile and laughter says it all! We found ourselves smiling ear to ear as we were looking through the photos. Talk about contagious smile…. check out Erin and her all gorgeousness!!

Erin & Jono really enjoyed dancing on their wedding day! There was multiple times while we were photographing that their happiness just exuded from them so much that they bust a move!!!

Mahalo Erin & Jono for allowing us to be a part of your Maui elopement! You were such a joy to work with and we hope you find your way back to Maui sometime soon!

Katelyn & Lance were such a joy to work with! Their love began long after their first meeting but once they knew, they knew!! They work for the same large company and met a few years prior to them dating during a work event. They had no idea at the time that their paths would cross again at another work event and the stars would align, but they did! Today, they celebrate the love that grew with a Maui beach wedding!

Lance has 3 kids that unfortunately couldn’t make it to their Maui wedding due to Covid, but they are thrilled with their “bonus Mom” Katelyn! This sweet couple has a wonderful future ahead of them and we are just honored to be a part of their story!

Lance’s parents come to Maui for a few weeks out of every year and they were blessed to be able to join them for their ceremony. The couple brought their own family officiant and Lance’s dad also said a few words during their very personal ceremony.

Lance proposed to his beautiful bride at a beautiful indoor pool at a hotel in Virginia Beach. He talked with security who allowed him to wait until the pool was closed to get some privacy and he popped the question! Love it!!

Mahalo for choosing Simple Maui Wedding to plan your wedding in Maui Katelyn & Lance! Your wedding turned out beautiful and went so smoothly. We hope you had the amazing Maui wedding day you had dreamt of!

Narges & Taylor are a sweet couple, all the way from Wisconsin. They decided the intimacy of a Maui beach elopement was the best way to share their love! Kanaha is a gorgeous white sand beach perfect for Maui elopements. It’s quiet, beautiful, and the perfect spot for this ceremony on the beach.

Reverend Kuya officiated their wedding offering such a genuine and heartfelt ceremony. His words are so deep and meaningful and even shared in the dance at the end to celebrate. Scroll down to check it out the full Maui elopement!

Even though they eloped, Narges and Taylor still were able to have their friends and family participate by adding on our “virtually there” package. Their ceremony was live streamed for their loved ones to watch as it happened in real time, how special! It was also available to watch on demand a few hours after the ceremony for anyone who missed it 🙂

Although the beach was mostly empty, they still got some love from passing by paddlers cheering for the newlywed couple! We love it when everyone joins in on the celebration to wish the bride and groom congratulations! It really shares the love of the island and shows just how much Aloha people in Maui really have.

Mahalo Narges & Taylor for sharing your day with us! You were such a pleasure to work with and your elopement turned out gorgeous. We can’t wait to see you in Maui again for anniversary portraits!!

Abigail & Cody are a fun and carefree couple all the way from Louisiana!! They live on a farm back home and joked during their wedding that they came from the farm to paradise for their ceremony!! Maui shared with them its true paradise with a gorgeous pastel sunset and heavenly weather during their Maui venue wedding!

Abigail and Cody began dating in college. They were introduced to each other by mutual friends, and the rest is history really! They enjoy the outdoors, horseback riding, hiking, ATV’s, and really just love life as a couple. It means so much to have someone to share lifes joys with and that’s just what these two have found! Life partners in each other to do life with!!

It was such a pleasure meeting these two and capturing their sweet and fun personalities! Take a look at their gorgeous Maui wedding day here.

5 Palms is such a beautiful Maui venue wedding location that fronts Keawekapu Beach. We do lots of weddings here with larger guest counts but it truly is perfect for an elopement as well!

This is such a gorgeous photo of Abigail & Cody just before sunset. We love how the light is coming in from behind Abigail & Cody with the waves lapping up on the shore perfectly.

Mahalo Abigail & Cody for choosing us!! We wish you many years of love and happiness and hope to see you both back in Maui soon!!

This right here is what love is all about!! Love finds its way into our lives in many different forms. For Megan & Kat it found its way within each other! They had been friends for some time before they began their relationship. Their bond grew and blossomed and they have been inseparable ever since. We are so grateful that through their journey, they found their way to us for an intimate Maui elopement.

Megan & Kat have a fur baby named Macy they absolutely adore!! It’s hard when your little fur baby can’t be here on your wedding day, but we do offer photoshopping services to give you a pic with your baby!! It may not look like they were actually there on the beach with you but it is a fun way to include them in the picture!

We adore the way the tropical flowers add a pop of color to Megan and Kat’s all white wedding attire.

When asked Megan & Kat what they are most looking forward to about being married they immediately said “starting and raising a family together.” We are looking forward to that too! Hopefully, you’ll bring that family back here to the spot you were wed for some Maui family portraits!! Our sister company Karma Hill Photography offers a return client discount for all our wedding clients, hint hint 😉

Mahalo Megan & Kat for including us in your Maui elopement! You were such a joy to meet and we look forward to meeting the whole in the years to come.

Stacie & Andy have been together for about 7 years! They were engaged here on Maui 2 years ago and knew at that point Maui was where they wanted to get married! Maui is their happy place, their paradise, and they couldn’t imagine starting their married life anywhere else! With 43 of their friends and family in attendance, a Maui venue wedding was their perfect scenario for their ceremony.

Having a group of over 30, such as Stacie & Andy’s, make a venue wedding a must to ensure your guests are comfortable and parking isn’t an issue. A wedding venue such as the Five Palms in Wailea provides your guests with the ability to sit and hear the ceremony much clearer and enjoy the shade of the palm trees. Five Palms is the perfect South Side Venue location because it sits right next to the beautiful Keawekapu Beach making after photos just a short walk! Take a look at the pictures below to see the beauty it has to offer!

We asked this sweet couple what they were looking forward to most about being married and Andy immediately said they are looking forward to celebrating their anniversary here for all the years to come. We hope you do come back every year Stacie & Andy, and we hope we get to see you each and every time!!

It was a pleasure meeting you Stacie & Andy! We look forward to seeing you next year for some Anniversary Portraits!! hint hint!! 😉

Robin & Chris’ story began 5 years ago before their gorgeous Maui beach elopement! Chris was driving through Colorado on his way home to Utah when he decided to hop on Tinder and start swiping! Robin happened to be on Tinder as well and they both swiped right! They didn’t actually meet that day but it did connect them to begin chatting! They talked for about 3 months before Chris made the drive back to Colorado to meet Robin. They met for a breakfast date, which turned into an all-day date, and Chris never left! Just kidding! He left that day, but it wasn’t long before he headed back down to Colorado permanently. The long-distance thing just wasn’t for them! They just knew their happily every after was together in Colorado.

We love sweet love stories like Robin & Chris’. It warms our hearts to know that we are a part of that journey now. A Maui beach elopement was the perfect setting for these two. They were able to focus on each other, the love they share, the life they are building; and who wouldn’t want to do that with their toes in the sand? Sounds pretty perfect to us!

Ironwoods Beach was quiet and serene this particular evening. There was a light layer of clouds that ended up drizzling on us during the ceremony. Afterward the ceremony the rain lightened and we saw a little rainbow making its presence. We did catch a little more rain while we were shooting on the cliffs but you know what they say about rain on your wedding day… it’s definitely good luck!!

Thank you so much Robin and Chris for choosing us to coordinate your Maui beach elopement! We wish you many more years of love and happiness!

Agi & Jimmy are a sweet couple from Illinois that we had the pleasure of meeting last week! They decided on a Maui beach elopement after several other wedding plan options over the past year. They met on Match.com about 3 years ago and have been inseparable ever since. Their very first date was meeting up for drinks at a local bar. Many shared interests and dates later they decided to tie the knot! What an honor it is that they chose us to be a part of it!

Agi & Jimmy’s road to the wedding wasn’t ALL fun and games of course. I mean, we are in the middle of a pandemic! Just getting to Hawaii has its challenges. Once they got on island and started heading out to their hotel, they were halted in their tracks by the Olowalu brush fire. They ended up spending their first night on Maui sleeping in their car. Not exactly how they wanted to spend their first day of vacation. But good attitudes and a beautiful wedding to look forward to made it easier to bear. And hopefully, the hotel credited you for the first night! 😉

Just after their wedding ceremony, Jacob from Manutea Nui E offered a sweet serenade for Agi & Jimmy to dance to. What a special moment, first dance as husband and wife.

This elegant couple looked magnificent as the pastel sunset hues faded into the ocean.
