The Best Spots For A Maui Destination Wedding

By Ella Hemmings


Weddings are meant to be romantic occasions, and Maui is one of the world's most romantic places, so many brides choose to plan a Maui destination wedding for their special day. While a Maui island wedding is certainly ideal for any couple, there are many different options that you need to consider as far as where your actual ceremony will take place. Consider some of the following ideas if you plan to get married in this tropical paradise.

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.

Another fun venue is the Kula Botanical Garden which encompasses six acres of lush plant life, koi ponds, gazebos and more. You can opt for a small, intimate ceremony in one of the two gazebos or enjoy the ceremony on the garden lawn, which can accommodate as many as 150 guests. The Kapalua Cliff House is yet another venue to consider, and this is both historic and oceanfront with spectacular views of Namalu Bay. The Cliff House can accommodate about 25 to 30 guests, so it is especially suitable for a smaller wedding party.

While large wedding parties are better suited to resorts and other venues that can host many people, a beach wedding is an ideal choice for couples that have just a few close friends and family along for the ceremony. There are many excellent choices for a couple that wishes to be married right on the sand, and you can even create a ceremony that includes Hawaiian music, a Hawaiian drummer or perhaps a hula dancer to truly create that perfect Hawaiian ambiance.

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.

Hiring a professional wedding planner can make the whole process much easier, and this is particularly true when you are planning a wedding far away from home. Your wedding planner will be familiar with all of the best venues on the island and can help you find one that suits your needs. In addition to helping find the location, they can help with many other details as well and might even offer several different affordable Maui wedding packages and Lahaina wedding packages.
