Patty and Henry fell in love with the private, ocean front Kukahiko estate for their intimate ceremony location. Located on the South side of Maui, the Kukahiko estate offers incredible views of the Pacific Ocean and the Islands of Molokini & Kahoolawe. The estate can be rented for a ceremony only or for a wedding and reception venue, for couples wanting a romantic and secluded location.
Patty chose a gorgeous driftwood arch, adorned with jewel toned floral arrangements from Dellables, they were stunning! Our florist do an amazing job of duplicating our clients’ visions! Dellables made matching floral centerpieces, then after the ceremony, we repurposed the arch piece to make the table look lush & full, while saving some money.
Pastor Valentine Rosette performed a heartfelt ceremony and the couple incorporated their children by presenting them with leis. The lei ceremony is the perfect touch of Hawaiian and is a great way to include & honor children and parents attending the wedding.
After the ceremony was completed, we made sure to get a group shot while we had everyone there, then break down into the smaller family & friend combination photos. I always highly recommend making a list of group shots beforehand, so no important shots are forgotten!
The guests relocated to the reception venue at Gather on Maui, while the bride and groom continued their bridal portraits on the Lava rock point, The view is incredible and make for some dramatic shots!
The guests were greeted at Gather in Maui and escorted to the reception venue on the lower lawn which boasts incredible ocean views surrounded by the immaculate, gold course golf course. Cocktails & appetizers flowed while the bride and groom stopped at Po’olenalena beach for some romantic sunset photos.
Once we knew Patty & Henry were headed to the reception, we had the DJ instruct all of the guests to be seated and the newlyweds were announced! First dance as husband & Wife was beautiful and we loved the added touch of the Aloha Marquee as their backdrop.
It was such a pleasure to be a part of Patty & Henry’s special day! Please contact A Perfect Paradise Wedding to get started on planning your Dream Maui wedding, we would love to assist you!
