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!!

Shelby and William met the old fashion way at a bar in Seattle, where they both currently live. Shelby was celebrating a win with friends after a football game when William caught her eye. They hit it off right away and the rest is history. Today we celebrate their wedding in Maui!
When Shelby & William decided on a Maui vacation they did not share with their families that they would be also getting married. The true definition of a Maui elopement! They’ve been engaged for a few years now though so there may have been some suspicions amongst their crew. Anyhow, we love the element of surprise and surely their friends and family are excited to for them as they embark on this new adventure.















Small beach elopements don’t have to go without the traditional elements like a toast and cake cutting! The yummy cake and Martinelli’s sparkling cider are the perfect addition to your beach wedding in Maui.

















Mahalo Shelby & William for choosing us as your Maui elopement coordinator! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

Ann & Donny first met at the beach in San Diego, both avid surfers and lovers of the ocean. They knew without a doubt that they needed to keep their love for the ocean as part of their wedding and chose to have a beach wedding in Maui!
We were excited to see that they brought their parents along and they were included in the ceremony with a sweet lei exchange. Reverend Peter officiated their heartfelt ceremony fronting the beautiful Hawaiian waters. After their ceremony, we enjoyed spending time with Ann & Donny and getting to know their fun personalities!









Their first kiss as man and wife went off in dramatic fashion with Reverend Peter blowing the conch shell to seal the ceremony.



We loved the addition of the cake and toast to Ann & Donny’s Maui beach wedding. It really added that special something; making the ceremony just that much more memorable for the two of them.


Immediately following the ceremony Ann asked if she could take a minute to go down to the water to get her feet wet and connect with the ocean. Without hesitation, Donny followed his new wife down to the water so they could take a moment to splash around together. The moment showed how sweet and playful their relationship is. “Toes in the sand, ring on your hand”.



Ann adorned the perfect dress for a beach wedding in Maui. The light cream color went perfectly with the natural surroundings while it light flowy look was was perfect for the temperature.











Mahalo Ann & Donny for choosing Simple Maui Wedding and letting us be a part of your special day.

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!

Kristy & Darius were surrounded by so much love for the venue wedding in Maui! They are actually a local couple blessed with being able to have their family join them on their big day! It was extremely important to them to have their loved ones present and thankfully the restrictions on the island lifted just enough to make that happen!
We call this story Love & Basketball because that’s where the chemistry began. Kristy had her eyes on Darius for quite some time, but it wasn’t until a pickup game on the basketball court that she really caught his eye.
Kristy & Darius dated for about 8 years before Darius proposed. He ‘Popped the Question’ at his birthday celebration with all their friends and family in attendance. We love how this sweet pair cherishes their family! We know as their family grows they will continue to adore each other and grow this new family bond.











Camden is 5 months old and their biggest joy!! In addition to tying the knot and having a beautiful baby boy, Kristy & Darius also bought their first home this year! 2020 brought amazing things for this sweet couple!





















It was such a pleasure being a part of your big day Kristy & Darius! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it, your photos turned out amazing!

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!

From the top of the mountain all the way down to the ocean, this sweet couple share their love for each other. Taylor & Mason were engaged at the top of Haleakala for sunrise and they decided to come full circle all the way to the ocean for their Maui beach wedding. We couldn’t agree more, this is the perfect setting for such a lovely couple to say “I Do”!
Ironwoods Beach sits on the west shore of Maui in Kapalua. The long white sand beach is adorned with rocks and cliffs on both sides. It’s one of our absolute favorite spots because of the unmatched beauty it has to offer. Taylor & Mason were blessed with gorgeous weather this particular day, waves crashing behind them, and they shared in a moment of bliss as they said “I do!”


Reverend Kuya’s heartfelt ceremony was beautiful, blessing Taylor & Mason’s union while embracing Hawaiian culture.
















Taylor looked simply stunning and chose the perfect Maui beach wedding dress for the occasion. We loved the lacy top and the perfect length of her wedding dress.



Taylor’s beach wedding bouquet was gorgeous with a king Protea as the centerpiece of this artful creation.






Thank you Taylor & Mason for sharing your special day with us! We hope that you two enjoyed everything about your Maui beach wedding!

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!!

Amanda & Eric had different wedding plans before Covid got in the way, but they made the most of it by eloping in beautiful Maui! They wore their traditional wedding outfits to their Maui beach elopement, looking classy and sheik. We just love their timeless style!
This beautiful couple was married on the shores of Ironwoods Beach, just the two of them. They still managed to share their special day with many friends and family near and far through a special video. Amanda & Eric chose a videography upgrade that allowed their ceremony to be uploaded for their family to watch within just a couple of hours. Although times prevent us from being with our loved ones, technology helps us find a way to share in those moments still.















Amanda was apprehensive about letting her train down at the beach, but we’re so glad she did because the affect of the train in the wind was absolutely beautiful.



These cliffside wedding photos were breathtaking and they captured the most beautiful sunset filled with pastel hues.








For dinner this sweet pair whisked each other off to Merriman’s. We’re sure their day was special from start to finish and were so happy they chose us to be a part of it!

“You Are My Soulmate…” is the English translation of Eres Mi Alma Gemela! Olivia & Nick are just that, two souls that were meant to join as one and live the rest of their lives together! Before their Maui elopement, these two met 12 years ago in Spanish class and they have been inseparable ever since. They were partners then in Spanish class and they are partners now in Life! There will be no more cheating off Olivia’s Spanish tests, ok Nick?
This sweet pair waited anxiously for months leading up to their Maui Elopement, not just with excitement, but with nervousness! No one knew if Hawaii would open to visitors. Every inkling of hope was quickly washed away whenever the state government pushed back the opening date. It was heartbreaking for them and heartbreaking for us.
But at the very last minute, a glimmer of light…. Just 3 days before their Maui wedding, Hawaii’s Trans-Pacific Travel Program was launched. Olivia & Nick were able to test just before they came and with negative test results, able to skip quarantine and get hitched!! It worked out perfectly for Olivia & Nick and we are beyond excited to share how everything turned out.





The beach was extra busy on the day of their wedding, but it as if someone was saving the perfect spot for their ceremony in the corner, away from all the noise and people!

























Thank you so much Olivia & Nick for choosing Simple Maui Wedding to coordinate your Maui elopement! You were an absolute pleasure to work with and we’re so honored to have met you! We can’t wait for you to return next year for your 1 year Anniversary!!

The anticipation was truly felt by all of us for Tricia & Billy’s Beach Wedding in Maui. They waited a lifetime for each other, and we waited 5 months since our last wedding! It’s been rough not having weddings in our life every single day. We’ve been looking forward to this gorgeous ceremony just as much as Tricia & Billy!
Tricia & Billy met 3 years ago when she decided to swipe Right on Tinder. Billy thought it was his dashing good looks but it was actually all because of his name. See, Tricia’s dog was named Billy, and as all dog owners know, they are one of the most special beings in your life. She felt it was meant to be!


It was a beautiful afternoon at Southside Beach. The warm sun with a light breeze offered the perfect setting for these two to share their vows with one another. Although they had planned for many family and friends (and their dogs) to be there on their wedding day, things didn’t work out quite as planned.
Quarantine orders for the guests coming from the mainland made it nearly impossible for loved ones to attend. Instead, this resilient couple brought Live Maui Webcasts along to film it for everyone watching from their homes in the mainland. This awful pandemic may have put up hurdles in our lives but Tricia & Billy weren’t going to let it get in the way of their love. In fact, it’s stronger than ever now as they embark on this new chapter as husband and wife.





















Billy restored his blue Bronco all himself! It was the perfect prop for their wedding pictures. Billy planned a fun “honeymoon weekend” adventuring around West Maui in the Bronco before heading back to work on Monday.
