Just M'auied: A Few Options For A Maui Wedding

By Ella Hemmings


Thousands of couples flock to Maui each year to tie the knot, and with so many beautiful and scenic spots, your hardest decision will be deciding where to hold the ceremony. This is especially true for couples that enlist the services of an expert Maui wedding coordinator. These professionals, such as those at Love Maui Weddings, can handle all the details, making the whole process simple and fun. There are many amazing Maui wedding options, and here are just a few to entice you.

1. Beach Weddings

Maui has no shortage of spectacular beaches for your special ceremony, but there are a few restrictions of which you need to be aware. For instance, there are no private beaches in Maui and all couples must secure a beach permit for their ceremony, although a Maui wedding coordinator can do this for you. You are not allowed to set up anything on the beach such as an arch, a runner or chairs. You can have a flower path and musicians are allowed provided they use acoustic instruments and no speakers are used. Some beaches have adjacent parks that can be a nice spot for a wedding and there is a bit more flexibility in the beach park. Still, you can't beat a wedding right on the sand and the natural beauty can be more than enough decoration.

2. Weddings For Just Two Or Just A Few

A Maui destination wedding is ideal for anyone who wishes to have a small, intimate wedding or for those who wish to elope. You can marry right on the beach, on a bluff overlooking the ocean or perhaps in a historic chapel. Love Maui Weddings offers a very affordable Maui wedding package, Simply in Love. For $575, this Maui wedding package includes securing a beach permit for up to 10 people, the services of the minister, two fresh Hawaiian leis, assistance with the marriage license and some romantic keepsakes.

3. Other Venue Options

For some, a beach wedding is ideal, others, may prefer to have a different view of Maui for their wedding ceremony. For instance, Maui is home to Haleakala, which is the largest dormant volcano in the world and you can tie the knot in the mountains above Maui. The Kula Botanical Garden is another lovely option, surrounded by the immense flora of Maui. The Maui Tropical Plantation is another popular venue for Maui weddings and perfect for larger wedding parties. You can have the ceremony and reception at the plantation if you wish and weddings here can accommodate anywhere from 10 to 400 guests.

4. Even Further Out Of The Box

No matter where you decide to hold the ceremony, there are some cool options that you can consider adding on to the traditional wedding ceremony. For instance, you might wish to have the bride arrive at the beach ceremony aboard an outrigger canoe. If you love the sea, you can even be married under the waves in a Scuba wedding. You also could enjoy your wedding and reception aboard a yacht with views of Maui as your backdrop.

There are even Maui wedding packages from Love Maui Weddings that have been created with the adventurous in mind. The Crazy in Love package begins with a scenic helicopter ride, taking in Maui and also Molokai by air. You set down on the island of Lanai for a beach wedding for two and then you are transported back to Maui in a speedboat. Your Maui wedding planners can even arrange for you to enjoy a beachside dinner served to you by your very own personal chef.
