Planning your Maui wedding

There's plenty of Maui Wedding Planners. We offer different levels of service, pricing and amenities. The best place for a prospective couple to start is with a budget. Beach weddings are the least expensive type of wedding to have on Maui and there are many beaches to choose from. While Maui wedding planners are prohibited from using Kaanapali beach for ceremonies, there are many other locations that are just as beautiful and less crowded. We can never tell on any given day how crowded a beach will be but you can use some guidelines to help determine that. Weekends and holidays on Maui like any other place, are always busier so we try to schedule weekday weddings for the beach. The hour before sunset is also a good time to schedule a Maui beach wedding as most folks are getting ready to go back to their hotels for dinner at that time and beaches tend to clear out. We also try to book the ceremony on the larger beaches so that we have room to move since it is illegal to ask beach-goers to move for our weddings.

The next question is how much and what type of photography you are after. There's many levels of service here: photographers who do everything themselves with on camera flash up to professionals who utilize a photographer's assistant and off camera remote control strobes. The pricing changes depending on the level of service you are after. Some Maui photographers will do a full edit, retouching every image in photoshop while others will hand you the flash card at the end of the wedding. Unless you are an expert in photo editing it is probably best to find a photographer who does a full custom edit. Our in house photographer, Joe D'Alessandro utilizes off camera remote strobes, reflectors and diffusers operated by an assistant and fully retouches each image in your wedding package. You also receive the reproduction rights.

For reasonably priced wedding packages and fully retouched digital images along with full reproduction rights, Marry me Maui Wedding Planners offers many options for wedding couples and gay friendly civil unions. We can arrange for semi private venues, where we can have chairs and arches or less formal beach ceremonies with toes in the sand. All of our pricing is on the website and there are no surprises or hidden fees.

For a free no obligation consultation for your Maui Wedding, give Marry me Maui a call at 1.808.242.1100 or drop us an email. We look forward to hearing from you!

Maui Wedding Planners

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
