Married In Maui: The Best Places For Wedding Ceremonies

By Ella Hemmings


Maui is a romantic, mystical destination with warm sea breezes, vivid sunsets and spectacular scenery. The beauty of Maui draws many couples to its shores each year for romantic destination weddings, and if you are searching for the perfect spot for your nuptials, there are few places on earth that can compete with Maui. This special island offers an abundance of idyllic locations for your wedding, whether it is big or small. Here is a sample of some of the most romantic spots.

For brides that have quite a few guests, you will need to find a spot that has enough room for your family and friends. This means that you probably should consider venues such as a resort or perhaps a plantation. There are several plantations that are set up for weddings and receptions, including the Maui Tropical Plantation. This plantation offers several areas for wedding ceremonies, including a gazebo that overlooks a lagoon. This is definitely an all-in-one venue as the staff can handle the ceremony and the reception that follows.

Spread among six acres of fragrant grounds, the Kula Botanical Garden is another excellent option for brides and grooms to consider. There are two gazebos which can be used for smaller weddings, and the main lawn can hold about 150 guests, so it is ideal for larger wedding parties. Another scenic choice might be the historic Cliff House, which rests alongside Namalu Bay. The scenery is stunning, and there is enough room for about 30 people to enjoy your ceremony.

Obviously the biggest draw in Maui is the ocean and the many picture perfect beaches, and many couples wish to share their vows right on the shore. This is certainly an option, although typically a beach wedding is better suited to couples with a small wedding party. However, just because the wedding party is small, the celebration can be elaborate, complete with flower leis, Hawaiian hula dancers and traditional island music.

There are many beaches to consider, including Kapalua Bay, Napili Bay and Makena Cove. Kapalua Bay was named by Conde Nast Traveler as the "Best Beach in the World." Napili Bay is another scenic spot located in northwest Maui, and this beach is a bit more secluded than Kapalua Bay. Makena Cove is also known as the Secret Cove, so this is an ideal location for an intimate beach wedding. Po'olenalena Beach is another popular spot for weddings, especially at sunset.

A destination wedding is definitely a memorable event, but it can be a bit tricky to plan, especially if you know little about Maui in general. Rather than spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to accomplish all of the planning on your own, it is a great idea to choose a wedding planning company such as LoveMauiWeddings.com. The owners started the company more than two decades ago, so they and the staff are experts at finding locations, reserving the services of an officiant, finding a great florist, planning excursions and helping with all of the details that accompany a wedding of any size.
