Maui wedding planners | Marry Me Maui

What could possibly be more romantic than a Valentine's day wedding? A Valentines day wedding on Maui of course! Think of how your partner will react when your Uber driver drops you both at the Hawaiian Air curb for the secret trip to Maui you planned for your 2 week vacation together and then ask the customer service rep for the first class upgrade. Oh yeah, she was wondering why you dragged that old Aloha shirt out of the closet this morning, and now she's thinking about Mai Tai's in the first class cabin and the fragrant trade winds and tropical sunshine that will soon be warming both of you in the middle of another frigid February. As if you needed to add more drama to this trip, you're still trying to figure out when to tell her that you've booked a Maui wedding ceremony for Makena Cove on Valentines day. She did say yes when you asked her to marry you and she always said that your impetuous nature was a big turn on but maybe, this time, you've gone too f...

"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...

That's what most of our brides want; toes in the sand on a warm sunny beach in paradise with a cool breeze gently caressing her hair, the sound of the ocean waves lapping on the shoreline, maybe a Hon'u or two floating just offshore or a Humpback breaching on the horizon combined with a laid back Maui beach wedding ceremony and the sound of an ukulele playing in the background. You can have these experiences and more when you elope to Maui. Prices, services and locations vary depending on who you choose to plan your Maui wedding and which venue you decide to use. Maui's private estates are fantastic places to hold court for the day with lush oceanfront lawns and luxury homes that may be used for getting ready on the big day. These are the some of the most expensive venues on Maui and require a decent sized budget. You'll need catering, a minister, someone to take care of the hairstyling, a floral designer, musician, Maui photographer and videographer. Not to mentio...

Marry Me Maui Wedding Planners has been running a morning special wedding package for a while now geared toward the couple who intends to elope to Maui yet still wants excellent imagery and professional service at a competitive price. Jessica and Dennis, 2 body builders from back east were our latest "special" couple and we had a magnificent morning at Makena Cove with only the Honu and the whales joining us for the ceremony. We got some beautiful shots of them and captured their love and commitment on the beach. Of course, we offer larger packages with more time for photography and larger groups but we are also offering smaller intimate packages with the same excellent service. So check out packages page linked above and enjoy the images we captured of Jessica and Dennis today!

October brings the brides to Maui and this years is no exception. As we wind up for one of our busiest months we really have to reflect on how lucky we are to be working in such gorgeous environment with such happy clients! The month of October will see us in various semi private venues and different beaches around the island coordinating and photographing wedding parties of various sizes, from 2 to 50, at different times of the day. Sunset weddings are by far the most popular as the light softens and the sky turns blazing colors but our morning weddings are special too because all beaches face west and with the sun behind us we get those beep blue ocean colors in the background of your Maui Wedding Photography . We can set you up with a fine dinner party replete with a spectacular table setting created by one of Maui's most talented floral designers or we can do a simple toes-in-the-sand beach wedding at a remote location for just the two of you. Whatever you choose, Marry Me Mau...

We seem to spend a lot of time at Kapalua Bay! This time it was with Emma and Yonsoo and a few family members celebrating their wedding with Rev. Ernest Pua'a leading the festivities and strumming some beautiful Hawaiian music on his ukulele. Emma chose one of our larger Maui Wedding Packages opting for an additional hour of Maui Photography along with a dvd slideshow. We started the shoot in Emma's room at the Royal Lahaina and then headed out to Kapalua Bay for the ceremony, about a 15 minute drive. State law prevents us from holding any weddings or photo shoots on Kaanapali Beach, where the Royal Lahaina sits, so Kapalua is the best and closest alternative. The 2 hour wedding package, Island Dreams, is perfect for a small group, especially if you are interested in getting some of those in room, pre-wedding images and the high resolution dvd slideshow with music that you can play on the widescreen at home for friends and family who couldn't be with you on your special ...
