Maui Weddings


We've talked about all the hoo-hah regarding beach wedding permits and restrictions put in place by a misguided state department of land and natural resources. These guys want to turn Maui into a museum where you can look but don't touch. Even though these regulations are currently in place and being followed by reputable planner like Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners, change is in the wind. The First Amendment to the constitution of the United States prohibits the government from establishing a religion or preventing the free exercise thereof. The right of entry permit clearly abrogates this constitutionally guaranteed right and will be challenged in court very soon. Stay tuned to this blog in the days and weeks ahead as we follow the course of this litigation. This very same lawsuit was upheld back in 2001 and the state was told to treat beach weddings the same as a birthday party, only with more deference. It shouldn't be long until we're back to business as usual. In the meantime, don't hesitate to book a Maui beach wedding. We have all the permit regulations covered and can guarantee you a once in a lifetime experience on the shores of the Pacific.

Eye contact. That's our tip for couples today. Nothing is more important than eye contact for those memorable wedding photos. Most of our Maui Wedding ceremonie s last about 15 minutes; short and sweet. 15 or 20 minutes for your photographer to capture something that happens once in your lifetime. Not to put too much pressure on the wedding couple, but the beauty of your Maui wedding images depend not only on the professionalism of your photographer, but also by your facial expressions, relaxed attitude and eye contact with each other and the camera. During the ceremony, your attention should be on the person you are marrying. Looking into each others eyes during the vows, lei ceremony and ring exchange not only creates incredible images but also bonds the two of you during what is a very intimate moment.

Maui Beach Weddings Question: What about the weather?

Image
"What do we do in case of rain?" is something we hear very often. Marry Me Maui does about 200 weddings per year. Most of them are beach weddings at various locations around the island. We try to keep the locations near our clients' accommodations but sometimes that's not possible because either the beach is not suitable for a wedding, there's no parking or the beach might be off limits by law (Kaanapali Beach). We are required to pull permits from the state for every beach wedding and they allow us 2 locations. This is usually sufficient to avoid a rain-out in cases of inclement weather. Kapalua Bay Maui is home to 10 of the 13 "life zones" on planet earth and also host various micro-climates. The weather in Kapalua can be vastly different than the weather in Lahaina only 7 miles away. Indeed, we have seen rain at DT Fleming and none at Kapalua Bay less than 1 mile away. With smartphones giving us constant updates on everything from our favori
