We are so excited to share Christina and Wesley’s elegant Maui venue wedding with you! So, when Christina and Wesley first met at Huntington Beach Library—yes, the library!—and kicked off their first date with Pokémon Go, a walk through the nature park, and boba, they were just two people figuring life out together. Ten years later, after building a life filled with family time, late-night TV sessions, and a glitter-filled proposal on a quiet park bench, they found themselves exchanging vows in one of the most breathtaking venues in all of Hawaii.
Their Maui wedding took place at the Grand Wailea’s Seaside Chapel, a hidden gem tucked within one of Maui’s most iconic luxury resorts. The Grand Wailea, a Waldorf Astoria property, is the kind of place that makes you audibly exhale the moment you step onto the grounds. With lush tropical gardens, waterfalls, koi ponds, and sweeping views of the Pacific, it’s a destination that feels both elevated and effortlessly connected to its surroundings. Keep reading and you’ll see what we mean!
What we love about this venue—and why it was perfect for Christina and Wesley—is how it blends luxury with ease. The staff at the Grand Wailea are warm, gracious, and incredibly attentive. Couples feel cared for the moment they arrive. The gardens, walkways, and beachfront paths offer a seamless mix of portrait backdrops, from manicured elegance to wild coastal beauty. It’s one of our favorite venues to photograph. We’re always thrilled to partner with the Grand Wailea to help bring these love stories to life.
The Seaside Chapel itself is intimate and serene, with a vaulted ceiling, and tall colored stained-glass windows that fill the space with natural light. It sits at the edge of the resort, just a short walk from the ocean, nestled among palm trees and tropical foliage. The chapel has an air of timeless romance, made even more special by its setting, surrounded by nature, but within reach of all the refined comforts you’d expect from a Waldorf Astoria property.
Their Maui venue wedding ceremony in the Seaside Chapel was full of quiet joy. Watching Christina walk down the aisle with soft light streaming through the windows felt like something out of a painting. Wesley’s reaction said everything, equal parts awe, happiness, and deep love. It was one of those moments that’s hard to put into words but impossible to forget.
For Christina and Wesley, this day was all about intention. They kept things small and meaningful, surrounded by the people closest to them. Christina, a nurse with Kaiser Permanente, and Wesley, who works in supply chain at Northrop Grumman, both know the value of time well spent so they planned a day that allowed them to slow down, savor the moment, and just be present with one another. They had their friends and family by their side who were just as excited as we were about their special day. It meant so much to them to have their loved ones share in the celebrations!
This wedding was part of a larger trip with their close-knit group of friends, who usually gather in Mammoth or Tahoe but unanimously agreed that Hawaii was the perfect next stop. As Christina shared, Maui offered “the best of both worlds”—a little city, a little nature, and the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.
Afterward, we explored the grounds together for portraits. The beauty of the Grand Wailea is that no matter where you are tucked beneath palm trees, strolling past the water features, or standing along the shoreline you’re surrounded by a sense of tranquility and understated grandeur. Christina and Wesley were completely at ease. They laughed, held hands, and took their time. It was a celebration, yes, but also a reflection of the life they’ve built: grounded, joyful, and full of love.
Christina and Wesley always joked about a Hawaii wedding one day. Now, that day has come has arrived!
Of course, we couldn’t resist a walk down to the beach. Just steps from the chapel, the shoreline offered the perfect ending to their portrait session. It was relaxed, romantic, and full of that just-married-in-Maui glow. These portraits? Some of our absolute favorites.
Congratulations, Christina and Wesley! Your wedding at the Grand Wailea’s Seaside Chapel was thoughtful, elegant, and full of heart. We’re so honored to have been part of this unforgettable chapter and to celebrate alongside you at one of Maui’s most stunning venues.

Some love stories start with sparks. Evelyn and Benjamin started with playdates. Yep—these two grew up together, their families intertwined long before romance ever entered the picture. So when they decided to tie the knot, a venue wedding in Maui felt like the perfect fit. It was relaxed, beautiful, and filled with meaning—just like their

There’s something deeply poetic about meeting someone in the middle of your story. Josef had already zigzagged across the country, from sunny Orlando to the mountains of Asheville, from Texas heat to Minnesota chill, before he met Lauren. And Lauren, born and raised in a quiet southern Minnesota town, had already braved the front lines of a global pandemic as a hospital nurse when their paths finally crossed in the spring of 2021. As all great modern love stories go, it started with mutual friends, a little spark, and, eventually, a sunset proposal in Jamaica.
So when it came time to plan their Maui beach wedding, they didn’t want anything flashy. No ballrooms or overly decorated venues. They wanted beauty. Simplicity. A setting that spoke for itself. And honestly? They found it, on the golden shores of D.T. Fleming Beach in Maui.
Lauren had never been to Hawaii before, but she had always dreamed of it. Josef had only seen Kauai years ago, but Maui? This was a first for both of them. And what a stunning way to be introduced to it, by pledging forever at the edge of the ocean, surrounded by soft sand, a gentle breeze, and just enough cloud cover to make the sky feel dramatic in all the right ways.
Their Maui beach wedding was intimate, quiet in the best way. No distractions. Just them, the sound of the waves rolling in, and a promise sealed with barefoot kisses and full hearts. The beach, with its windswept palms and sun-dappled surf, was all the décor they needed. When love looks that effortless, nature knows how to take a step back and let it shine.
Lauren was absolutely radiant, glowing not just with Maui sun but with the kind of warmth that comes from knowing you’re exactly where you’re meant to be. Josef, ever the steady calm to her sunshine, looked dashing in the way someone does when they know they’ve found their forever.
After the “I dos,” they lingered on the beach. They soaked it in. The sky softened into pastel shades, and they held hands, barefoot in the sand, laughing and glowing like people who know the best adventure is the one they just began. You could feel it in the air—that this wasn’t just a ceremony. It was a chapter, a moment stitched into their story with salt air and sand between their toes.
Congratulations, Lauren and Josef! Your Maui beach wedding was everything it needed to be, simple, soulful, and full of joy. Here’s to many more sunsets, road trips, and boat rides together… and to a love that continues to feel like the best kind of home.

If there’s one thing we know, it’s that love can transform any moment into something unforgettable. And Christopher and Clare’s Maui elopement? It was just that and more! This stunning couple, who traveled all the way from the UK to exchange vows under the Hawaiian sun, couldn’t have chosen a more perfect setting. The backdrop
[...]
Some couples plan a Maui elopement with spreadsheets, vision boards, and Pinterest rabbit holes. Danielle and Harry? They went with sunshine, simplicity, a flower circle, and a little slice of Hawaiian paradise. Honestly, we approve.
These two are both nurses (yes, real-life superheroes), and after long shifts and saving lives, they’ve earned the right to say “I do” with their toes in the sand and the ocean in the background. And that’s exactly what they did, on their very first trip to Hawaii, no less!
Their elopement took place at Polo Beach, a hidden gem on Maui’s sunny southwest shore that basically looks like it was pulled from a postcard. With golden sand, gentle waves, it was the perfect setting for their “just us” kind of day.
Danielle and Harry knew they didn’t want a big wedding. No color-coded seating charts or cake tastings for these two. What they wanted was simple, beautiful, and meaningful, and wow, did they nail it. With the Pacific Ocean stretching out behind them and the sky doing that cotton-candy sunset thing Hawaii does so well, they exchanged vows that were full of love, laughter, and just a few happy tears.
And though they didn’t have a guest list a mile long, they weren’t completely alone. Their sweet pup might not have been able to make the trip, but it’s safe to say they carried a piece of their fur baby with them in spirit. Their elopement was beautiful and just what they envisioned.
After their Maui elopement ceremony, Danielle and Harry soaked in the moment, barefoot and glowing with post-”I do” joy. They strolled along the shoreline, wrapped in each other and a breeze that couldn’t have been better if we’d ordered it ourselves. There were no distractions, just laughter, a lot of hand-holding, and that kind of contentment that comes from knowing you just married your favorite person in the world.
They ended the day exactly how you’d expect two nature-loving, travel-obsessed, dog-devoted, slightly-sandy newlyweds to: watching the sun dip below the horizon, side by side, already dreaming of what comes next. Maybe a hike, maybe a dog-filled reunion back home, but definitely together!
Congratulations, Danielle and Harry! Your Maui elopement was everything a wedding should be joyful, authentic, and beautifully you. Here’s to a lifetime of adventures, sunset strolls, and cuddles with your pup. And if every anniversary involves a little sand between your toes and a lot of love? Even better. Enjoy the rest of your time in Hawaii!

Here’s the thing about love stories: sometimes they start with a grand, cinematic moment—a whirlwind, a lightning strike, a meet-cute involving spilled coffee and a lot of blushing. And sometimes? Sometimes they unfold quietly, steadily, like a tide rolling in, until one day, you look up and realize your person has been beside you all

Let’s talk about fate and a Maui venue wedding. Not the cosmic, shooting stars, “I knew it when I saw them across the room” kind of fate. No, I’m talking about potsticker fate. The kind where you’re a little tipsy, it’s way past midnight, and you hand a stranger a steaming dumpling as a parting gift — and then, boom. You accidentally meet the love of your life.
That’s exactly how it started for this adorably introverted, karaoke-loving, sushi-obsessed couple. A potsticker. A mutual friend. And Arnell, who knew immediately that there was something special about her. She, on the other hand, was in her “I’m staying single, thanks” era. But Arnell? Persistent. Kind. Low-key charming. And eventually, very, very successful.
Flash forward past sweet moments, shared omakase meals, and a proposal so romantic it could be a Nicholas Sparks novel (yellow-themed surprise beach picnic? coordinated photographer? yellow roses and swan towel animals?!), and we arrive here: a breathtaking wedding at Merriman’s Kapalua on Maui…
The whole day felt like one long exhale, the kind where everything just makes sense. Their decision to swap a high-effort backyard wedding for a Maui destination celebration? Best idea ever! Not only did it mean less stress and more fun, it gave them something they truly value: a day focused on joy, love, and connection. And of course, aloha! Their Maui venue wedding was an intimate celebration of love, joy, and commitment. It meant the world to them to have their loved ones present.
With their closest people surrounding them, they laughed, hugged, and promised forever. The celebration was intimate but full of energy and brimming with love. They snuck away for some newlywed portraits that surely will leave anyone’s jaw on the floor! From the peaceful blue sky to a sunset that looked straight out of a postcard, the scenery was impossibly photogenic, only outshined by this gorgeous couple!
From San Diego to Oahu to Maui, these two have written a love story filled with shared playlists, quiet nights, and joyful chaos. They balance each other beautifully, have a room that is apparently never quiet (thanks, gaming + karaoke), and now they have a marriage as grounded and joyful as the island they chose to celebrate on.
Congratulations, you two. Your day was magic. Your love is magic. And we’re so happy to have captured every golden, windswept, wonderfully Maui moment.

Okay, imagine this: the crashing waves of Ironwoods Beach, the softest golden light curling around two very happy humans, and one perfectly ruffled dress dancing in the wind. That was Phillip and Maria’s Maui beach wedding day, and reader, it was nothing short of magic.
Now, this wasn’t your average “first time down the aisle” kind of event. No, no. This is Phillip and Maria second chance at love with just the two of them. With love, laughter, and the most glorious landscape these two deserve!
They met at work, back when Maria was charming everyone at her company before retiring, and Phillip was solving mysteries and keeping everyone on their toes. Eight years of dating later—yes, eight—Maria wasn’t surprised when Phillip proposed, but the ring? That one totally caught her off guard. Well played, sir.
Together, they’ve built a beautiful life in the Pacific Northwest filled with dogs, walks, workouts, and adult sons (four between them!). But on this day, it was just them—and it was glorious.
Now let’s talk wedding photography. First of all, Phillip in a blue suit? Peak ocean-handsome. And Maria absolutely glowed in a dreamy ruffled gown that billowed with every salty breeze. She looked radiant—joyful, confident, and completely in love.
Their photos? Think light-drenched romance, soft pastels, and an epic Ironwoods cliffside backdrop that honestly deserves its own agent. Every frame radiates This is what happiness looks like.
So here’s to second chances, Maui magic, and love stories that get even better with time. Congrats, Phillip and Maria—you did it your way, and it was perfect.

Some love stories don’t need ballrooms or big crowds—just a beach, a breeze, and the right person.
—and Evan and Amber’s Maui beach wedding was the perfect mix of romance, laughter, and sunshine-soaked simplicity.
Evan, a delivery driver with a passion for photography, and Amber, a Sunglass Hut manager with a serious knack for style, knew from the beginning that they didn’t want a big, elaborate wedding. Nope. This was going to be about what mattered most: each other, a few close loved ones, and a view that made their hearts skip a beat.
So when it came time to choose a location, the answer was easy: Maui. A place they had never visited together, but one that promised warmth, beauty, and just a hint of adventure. (Which, let’s be real, is exactly their vibe as you’ll see!)
Their ceremony took place at Southside Beach, one of those “pinch-me-is-this-real” kind of locations. With soft sand, glowing light, it felt like the island itself was blessing their day.
Amber looked absolutely radiant. The breeze picked up just enough to make everything feel soft and romantic, like something out of a dream. Evan, beaming with happiness, couldn’t take his eyes off her.
And the best part? It was so them. Relaxed, full of love, and beautifully un-fussy.
Their guests—just a few family and friends—were all smiles as they watched Amber and Evan exchange heartfelt vows. It was the kind of ceremony where you could feel the meaning in every word. It was all they hoped for and more!
Amber had already said yes once—on a beach in Lincoln City, Oregon during her birthday weekend, where Evan proposed in the most thoughtful, genuine way. And now, here they were, on another beach (a little sunnier this time!), sealing the deal and beginning a new chapter in their favorite way—together.
The photos from their Maui beach wedding say it all. Light, love, and so much laughter. You can see how much they adore each other in every glance, every hand-hold, every joyful step down the beach. It was simple. It was meaningful. And it was absolutely beautiful.
Afterward, they strolled along the shore, letting the waves kiss their feet and the moment soak in. First trip to Maui: a glowing, golden success. And you bet she brought the shades! How cute are they?!
We’re so honored to have captured your beautiful day. Your Maui beach wedding was proof that intimate, simple weddings can be just as magical—if not more so—than the biggest ballroom bash. We hope you carry the joy of this day into every new adventure, every hike, every photo, and every beach you walk together.

Katee and Andrea’s Maui beach wedding was the perfect blend of romance, intimacy, and carefree joy. These two met on a dating app and instantly connected, leading to not one, but two proposals—Andrea’s informal proposal and Katee’s formal one, which took place right on the beach. For their wedding, they wanted something classic, intimate, and stress-free, where they could focus on each other and the magic of the day. And what better way to do that than a beautiful beach wedding in Maui?
Andrea, who works for the state of Oregon auditing group homes, and Katee, who connects people with higher education at a university, share a love for their three dogs and two cats, as well as traveling and trying new restaurants. With their shared sense of adventure and love for simplicity, they knew a Maui beach wedding was the perfect fit!
On their big day, the atmosphere was nothing short of magical. The couple, both glowing in their stunning bridal dresses, looked ethereal as the ocean breeze danced around them. The ceremony was sweet and romantic, filled with meaningful moments they’ll cherish forever. They sealed their vows with a kiss under the golden Maui sun, and the joy on their faces said it all—they were having the best time!
Afterward, they enjoyed glowing newlywed portraits on the beach, capturing the glittering waves and the ethereal beauty of the island. It was an incredible day filled with love, laughter, and a sense of peace, just as they had dreamed!
Congratulations, Katee and Andrea! Your wedding was as romantic and special as it gets, and we’re so happy we could be part of your unforgettable day. Here’s to a lifetime of happiness!

Carina and Oliver’s Maui venue wedding was a delightful mix of spontaneity, love, and a touch of drizzle-induced luck! Despite their differing opinions on road trips (Carina’s not a fan, while Oliver can’t get enough), they both share a love for adventure and the great outdoors. We couldn’t have been more excited to bring their beautiful day to life! So without further adieu keep reading to see more!
When the idea of a Maui wedding venue popped into Carina’s mind, she knew it was the perfect fit for their laid-back yet romantic style. So, with excitement in their hearts and a little drizzle in the air (which, as they say, is good luck!), they said “I do” at Gather in Kihei. After all, it’s supposedly good luck!
The sprinkle of rain only added to the romance of the moment, making their ceremony even more unique. After exchanging vows, they sought shelter, finding solace in each other’s arms as they waited for the sky to clear.
But when it did, it was like a dream come true. With the sun peeking through the clouds, Carina and Oliver ventured down to Southside Beach for their newlywed portraits. Against the backdrop of the sparkling ocean, they radiated happiness and love.
Carina brought a touch of glam and sparkle to the occasion, while Oliver looked dapper as ever. We love the gold and black theme! Their smiles said it all – they were overjoyed to be starting this new chapter of their lives together!
We couldn’t help but feel grateful to have been a part of their special day! Carina and Oliver’s wedding was a beautiful reminder that love knows no bounds, and even a little rain couldn’t dampen their spirits. Congratulations to the happy couple! And enjoy your honeymoon!

As retired individuals, both David and Yingyu bring a wealth of life experiences and passions to their union, making their love story even more unique.

Their love story took an unexpected turn when they met online, bridging the distance between Guilin, China, and Seattle, Washington.
