Darci and her entire team really went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect for Jason and I! We honestly couldn’t be happier with our wedding and reception – everything was literally perfect!”  1/20/19

Changes in Maui County law for Maui Wedding Venues

Maui wedding venuesWithin the last couple years, Maui County has begun reducing your choices for Maui wedding venues. Where we once were able to utilize beautiful properties up and down the coast, the State has now put a stop to those housing venue permits. The State of Hawaii has now set caps in the number of attendees allowed for a beach wedding, max being 30.

Maui Wedding VenuesThis has forced many couples that would have had a beach wedding to look for affordable venues – and we’ve scouted them for you! We also know which venues get booked the fastest and which venues are worth the investment. Let Aloha Maui Dream Weddings be your legs on the ground over here on Maui – don’t be fooled by companies that will have you believe they are actually on Maui when they’re not. This scam is becoming more and more abundant over here.

The Best Ones…

Olowalu Plantation HouseThere are a few Maui wedding venues (our favorites) that offer exquisite views, practical pricing and incredible service for your special day. The teams we assemble have worked together many times and the vibe this creates for you is one of seamless, timeless elegance. You will be proud to share your special day with your friends and loved ones. They will be talking about YOUR DAY for years to come.

We also work with the Fairmont KeaLani Resort to offer beautiful weddings and receptions on the Resort Property. Partner with us and get discounted block rates on rooms as well.

Affordable destination wedding on Maui

May18

There is such a concept as an “affordable destination wedding” and Maui can be exactly what you are hoping for. Depending on the number of guests you invite and the decor you dream of and the time of year, Maui can be the affordable destination for any budget.

Things to do in Maui 2016The Hawaiian Islands are each very unique. Understanding the differences between them might help you select which island is best for your affordable destination wedding. Lanai and Molokai are the smaller islands in the chain and are great for day trips while staying on one of the other, larger islands.

Oahu, being the most populated, draws tourists that seek lively night life, densely populated shopping malls and of course, Waikiki! This also means more cars, more traffic, more congestion.

Kauai is the destination for hikers, explorers and tourists needing to “get away from it all” for a bit. Kauai offers dense jungles and lush rainforests. This is a perfect location for the short island hop off of Maui.

The Big Island Hawaii is the only island with an active volcano and offers lots of miles of expansive black lava fields and course-textured beaches.

Then there is Maui. Maui no ka oi.

Maui offers miles of sandy beaches and ocean side estates and condos – the most perfect island for an affordable destination wedding. With this abundance of beautiful nature comes options for many things to do and adventures to be had. Maui was voted the #1 island in the world by TripAdviser for 2016.  Spend your days diving, snorkeling, hiking under waterfalls, para-sailing, shopping or exploring the amazing restaurants. Along with all these opportunities for adventure, Maui also offers the most affordable destination weddings out of all the Hawaiian islands.

Romance on beautiful sandy beaches...Thank you to Penny Palmer Photography!

Your romantic beach or ocean side wedding doesn’t have to be out of reach. You have many choices in the world for affordable destination weddings – Jamaica, Thailand, even Mexico. But Maui offers convenience, luxury and affordability all within the safety and security of the United States.

We have travel agents that specialize in getting you to and around Maui. They offer their services at no charge to you or your guests as part of our wedding packages.

Kahului Airport (OGG) is an easily maneuverable airport with easy to find rental car counters and of course, 2 Starbucks! We can provide lei greetings, limo service or chauffeured car service to whisk you from Baggage Claim to the front door of your accommodations.
