Maui Weddings

On July 18th 2010, we had the pleasure of Abbey and Christopher's company as we celebrated their wedding on the soft white sands of Makena while the sun set. Ron Kuala'au serenaded us with his Martin ukulele while Vance brought tears and laughter to the tight knit group of friends and family. Dellables created her usual superlative floral designs and Co from Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners directed the whole event with her typical precision and warmth.

Weddings in Hawaii

Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners has the privilege of working with couples from all around the world. Our in-house photography team, with decades of professional experience, gets the opportunity to photograph those couples in some of the most superb and pristine environments in the world. Maui's beaches are incredibly beautiful. The sand varies in color from beach to beach but the ocean is deep blue and the beaches in all the resort areas face west, for those incredible sunset portraits. Where else can you get maui'd with green sea turtles near shore and, at certain times of the year, endangered humpback whales cavorting at sea?

A Maui wedding at Kapalua Bay is one of our favorites. While the beach may experience the passing shower now and again, it is usually mostly sunny, breezy and lightly used. We always have a "plan B" in case of rain but that happens very infrequently.

Hawaii Sunset Weddings

Catherine and Mark travelled all the way from the UK to get Maui'd! We were so pleased they chose our wedding planning services. We had a beautiful afternoon ceremony at Kapalua Bay and they had a wonderful time. 27 hours in a plane is a long way to go but Maui in THE destination island on the planet. Before you get here, be sure to book Maui's premier wedding planning company; Marry Me Maui. You'll have plenty of great memories to bring home with you.
Mahalo Cathrine and David!

Maui Commitment Ceremonies

We had the pleasure of performing a commitment ceremony on one of our favorite Makena Beaches last week. It was a perfect day, soft breeze and gently setting sun. Some of the beaches on Maui are the perfect venue for a commitment ceremony and even though there may be other people on the beach, they are few and far between and always respectful of us. The Rev. Diana George gave Barb and Tish a wonderful ceremony as the sun sank into the sea...

Maui Wedding, Kapalua Bay

Mary Kate and Dan tied the knot on a cool, cloudy morning at Kapalua Bay on June 3, 2010. It was a beautiful ceremony with 15 of their closest friends and relatives in attendance. Morning weddings on Maui have their own special feel and while we don't get those sunset shots, the bride, groom and family have the entire day free to explore and celebrate. Mornings are cooler than the afternoon and morning weddings make for a great way to start the day




What about sunset you say? Mary Kate and Dan booked us for the next evening, in a different location, to do a sunset shoot. We could also "trash the dress" if that's what you have in mind.



Mahalo Mary Kate and Dan, best of luck to you in your future together.

(Melissa and David). 10 minutes indeed! We spent a lot more time than that getting everything just right but you'll never know.

Professional Maui Wedding Photography

There are a some old adages that are usually true. One is that "you get what you pay for". Time and again when we purchase the cheapest item we end up buying another one after it breaks costing us more than if we'd just went with the quality product first. With a Maui destination wedding, there are no do-overs so you need to make sure you get it right the first time.

Another old adage is that "patience is a virtue". Fast food never tastes as good as a home cooked meal which may take hours to prepare. The same is true for photography. Sometimes, a potential client will not book with us because they feel the wait for the images is too long. Patience, my friend. We do this the old fashioned way. We go through all the images, picking out the best and then retouching each one individually to remove unsightly blemishes, optimizing the images for reproduction. This is time consuming and we are fortunate enough to have many clients who are also waiting for professional wedding images. Interestingly enough, when we ask our potential clients why they called us they typically tell us it's because of the high quality photography on our site. Well, there's a reason for that quality...

We could charge less, hire an amateur photographer who gets off his day job at 5 and dump unedited jpegs onto a cd and get your pictures to you in 24 hours, but those images wouldn't look any better than the ones your mother in law shot with her ninety nine dollar kodak camera. That's not what y0u came all the way out here to Maui for and that's not why we went into this business. Photography is our passion. Sounds corny but it's true. We don't want to cut any corners. Period. If the imagery is as important to you as the wedding, then we're the Maui wedding planners you want.

Please call us at your convenience 1-800-745-0344. We'd love to hear from you.
