The beautiful Kukahiko estate in Makena, the perfect venue for your Maui wedding!

Devan & Brandon fell in love with the spectacular view & privacy of the Kukahiko estate, for their Maui wedding ceremony!  They wanted to be on the Ocean, but not on a public beach.  It was a important that they  were able to have a bamboo arch and seating for their guests, then to continue the reception at a nearby restaurant.

I recommended our Tropical Bliss Packages which includes 2 hours use of the ocean front lawn and then to have their reception at Gannon’s lower lawn.  The lower lawn sits below the main restaurant & provides a lot of privacy for an intimate reception.  Gannon’s does allow for us to have DJ’s, dance floors & personalized lighting.  It is a wonderful alternative to our wedding couples that don’t want o incur the cost of renting a private venue for a ½ day, rental, staffing and catering fees.

Close Family & friends gathered as Devan’s fathered officiated the heartfelt ceremony, as Kaua from Kaua photography did an incredible job of capturing their love story!

Thank you Devan & Brandon for choosing A Perfect Paradise Wedding to be a part of your special day!  It was a pleasure working with you!

Answers to frequently asked questions about your Maui beach wedding!

Q:        How do I get a Marriage License?

A:        A Perfect Paradise Wedding will make your marriage license appointment for you,  once we know your arrival date and where you will be staying on Maui.  There is no waiting period in Hawaii, you will just need to provide valid photo ID. We will forward you the link to the application & provide with you with directions to your agent’s location.  Please bring your Hawaii Marriage License with you to the wedding ceremony to be signed by your Officiate.

Q:        What is the best time of day to have a beach wedding?

A:        I love both morning & sunset weddings! Morning weddings are great for brighter, more vivid colors, we recommend starting around 9:00am before it starts to get busy at the beach.  For Sunset weddings, depending on the group size, we recommend starting the ceremony 1 to 1.5 hours prior to sunset.  The lighting is soft, more orange & pink tones and ending the bridal portraits with a great Maui sunset!

Q:        Do we need a beach permit?

A:        The State of Hawaii does require a permit which is included in all of our pre-designed wedding packages.  State permitting rules allow for a maximum of 30 guests, for larger groups we would be happy to recommend one of our beautiful private venues.

 

Q:        Can we have arches or chairs on the beach for our wedding?

A:        All Hawaiian beaches are considered public property and we are not allowed to have any type of structures or objects that might detour others from enjoying the beach. We have several ocean front & ocean view properties for you to consider if having chairs for your guests & an arch is a must!

 

Q:        What happens if it rains?

A:        Luckily, this is rarely an issue on Maui, as most beaches are located in the dry zones with very little rain!  In the event of rain, we would attempt to move your wedding to a nearby beach, offer suggestions for private and covered options,  or if necessary we can attempt to reschedule the wedding day for you.

 

Your welcome to give A Paradise Wedding a call at 1-800-969-6281 to discuss any additional  questions you may have regarding planning your destination wedding!  We would love to assist you in making your dream wedding become a reality!

From the Lava Rock Jetta to the tropical foliage, there is no shortage of great photography opportunities at the Kukahiko estate.  Aly & Lane’s stunning photos are from Capture Aloha Photography!

If you’re looking for an Ocean front wedding & reception location for a group of 55 and under,  this location might be perfect for you!  Contact us at www.aperfectparadisewedding.com today and we would be happy to provide you with a custom proposal!

 

What a fun wedding to plan, Thank you Aly & Lane!

Simple Elegance at The Olowalu Plantation House

As soon as I met Nicole & Brandon, I knew I would love working with them and I was right!  They were such a sweet, easy going couple who recently made Maui their home.

We set up a site visit for the Olowalu Plantation house and the couple fell in love with the venue at first sight!  We went over their vision, layout and overall feel they were looking for, simple, but elegant!

We created an intimate grand dining table with burlap runners, wooden disks, mason jar vases and of course a ton of candles! Romantic, bistro lighting was strung above the dining & dance area, providing the perfect glow.  Drinks were served at the Vintage style bar, adorned by bulb lights which provided a very chic look by Aloha Bars.

A very important aspect for the couple was to have a great caterer and delicious food for their guests.  We recommended our personal favorites, Café O’ Lei and they delivered!  Passed appetizers of crispy calamari, Kalua Pork canapés, Chicken satay’s with a Thai Peanut sauce, and a wonderful buffet menu with a bit of everything!

Instead of a traditional wedding cake, the couple chose to go with assorted chocolate covered strawberries and cupcakes from Maui wedding cakes, which were a big hit! .

The fabulous photographer that captured this stunning event, was the brides cousin and professional photographer Lauren Allison!  https://www.lcallison.com/  Such a talented & wonderful photographer to work with!

I’m so blessed to live in Maui, enjoy what I do, and to have amazing clients that I now call friends!

For more information about the historical Olowalu Plantation house or other beautiful venues we have to offer on Maui, please contact, Kelly at www.aperfectparadisewedding.com   I would love to discuss your vision and help make that a reality!
