Or perhaps we should just call it "wedding". With the Supreme Court decision today legalizing same sex marriage all over the U.S., a wedding is now just a wedding. We are so pleased to see justice finally done and that our clients can now go back home after their wedding knowing that their union will be legally recognized in their home state. We have been planning and photographing same sex unions since Hawaii legislated "Civil Unions" a few years ago and more recently when Hawaii was ahead of the curve and legalized gay marriage. Those first few couples who took advantage of the civil union laws and came out to Maui are brave souls, pioneers who took vows in public even though it wasn't legal in the country, yet we never heard a discouraging word from anyone who might have been on the beach that day but instead the couple would be treated to applause from the few folks who might have been paying attention to the ceremony from afar. But all that is over now. Ma...

Where can you go in a world of 7 billion souls to find yourself almost completely alone with your closest friends and family on a pristine tropical beach to have your wedding? If you're Jessica and Ryan the answer would be, Maui! With a luau scheduled as their reception, we set them up with a mid afternoon ceremony time on a rather unknown beach on the west side of Maui, a beach known mostly to the local surfers and frequent visitors but not many others. Jessica went for our Elegant Maui wedding package from Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners , a package which includes in room hair and makeup, live music for the ceremony, cinematography, a professional Maui photographer and a custom bridal bouquet among other amenities. The weather was perfect with light clouds and a cool breeze. Our professional Maui Wedding Planner guided our wonderful couple through the entire process keeping them on time and on target while our professional pool of Maui wedding professionals provided their typic...

A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of working with Michelle and Tommy on their Maui destination wedding. Michelle chose a  mid level package from Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners which included a custom bouquet, pre-wedding photography, in room hair and make-up and a musician for their romantic beach ceremony. These inclusive Maui wedding packages are surprisingly affordable and most of all, FUN! We began our Maui Photography coverage in Michelle's room at the Maui Coast Hotel which is just across the street from the beach in Kihei. Spending about 20 minutes with Michelle, her mom and brother, gave us the opportunity to get some intimate candid images before the wedding. A short ride down the coast to a relatively empty Chang's beach in Makena brough us to the wedding site where Tommy was patiently waiting for his bride. We had a typically gorgeous Maui afternoon with Rev. Dennis DeRego doing the ministry and Brother Kalani playing some beautiful ukulele both before, during ...

Clients always ask us about our Maui wedding packages and what they can add to them. This always leads to a discussion on the size of your guest list and what your expectations are for your wedding ceremony. Our packages are all priced for a beach location with additional fees for private venues. Private venues offer ample parking, covered back up in case of rain (in most cases), a lawn area reserved for the wedding itself, chairs, the ability to have amplified music, wedding arches, champagne toasts, etc. Some of the things we cannot legally provide on a public beach are available at private venues. These venues also usually have restaurants so it's very convenient to have your ceremony and reception at the same location without driving around the island. Shuttle buses can also be arranged to avoid the hassle of designated drivers. Marry Me Maui has been providing professional wedding planning and photography services to clients from around the world for 15 years. We are dedic...

We had the opportunity to work with Nicole and Scott on their Maui Wedding last night at beautiful Kapalua Bay. Dennis was the wedding minister and gave a beautiful Hawaiian ceremony to this very lucky couple. A large Honu was feeding on the rocks right up by the shoreline and the breeze was very light, just a whisper. Our Maui wedding packages are reasonably priced. Photography and service are at the core of what we do. Our Maui Wedding Photography is all done by co-owner Joe and all the wedding planning and coordinating is done by the other co-owner, Co Pegg. Your Maui wedding will never get farmed out and all your correspondence will be with one of the owners. At Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners , we never double book. This ensures that we will be present at your wedding ceremony. It's always a good feeling to know that the owners of the company you've booked with will be there with you all the way! So thanks again Nicole and Scott. We got some great images to send yo...

There's more opportunity for some great photos on your wedding day if you add a little extra time to your Maui wedding package and have some pre wedding shots done in the hotel room. Usually we photograph just the bride along with her entourage, getting ready, zipping up the dress, doing a little touch up on the hair and makeup and basically clowning around. These moments are great to have as a memory of those last moments of being single! Laura and Wes decided to add the time to their wedding package and also booked a semi private lawn area overlooking Kapalua for the ceremony. We had a great time and produced some killer images!
