The Coronavirus in Hawaii and our concerns for you…
Being asked to be part of your special day, to play a key role in your special Hawaii wedding is a true honor. I approach each wedding as a privilege. You’ve found the love of your life and you’re ready to marry and walk the same path in life. You’re ready to elope in Maui and feel the sand between your toes…
And then the world goes into a panic. Unlike anything we could have predicted.
Many of you have questions and I encourage you to contact us. We’re happy to help alleviate concerns and help you plan for something special in the future. We believe that we all must have hope and aloha for a brighter future. Looking forward to something will help us all get through this.
Wondering when the Coronavirus might hit Hawaii weighs on everyone’s mind here. Your Maui Wedding Team is diligently washing hands often, antibacterializing the equipment, washing down surfaces every 15 minutes and attempting the 6′ rule between strangers. We are sharing the aloha by watching out for shut-in neighbors, helping the elderly and watching over each others’ families. Our lives are fairly normal notwithstanding those adjustments. The Communities on Maui haven’t gone into a panic mode as it sounds like many places in the World has. Our hearts break as we read the news and hear what you all are going through. We hear your panic and your concerns as we don’t know what governmental changes will be administered next.
So where does that leave your dream of a Maui wedding? Please continue to plan your special day. If you feel more comfortable planning further out, then do that… but please don’t give up your dream out of fear. We will get through this. There will be an “other side”. Let your other side be bright and hopeful and ready for a brilliant future. Don’t wait in sadness and bleakness. You can inspire others with your own hope and optimism.
What can you do while self-isolating?
You can use Pinterest to think about how you’d like your reception set up or your flowers for your ceremony.
Spend time looking through our Add-Ons Section to dream of more cool ideas!
Please continue to be safe in the way you go about life but don’t forget about your Ohana. Phone calls and Facetime are huge to people self-isolating. Involve them in your wedding discussions. Talk to them about all the incredible adventures you will have on Maui. Just letting someone else know that you are hopeful can be all that is necessary to keep them from going to a dark place also.
Reach out to us anytime. We thank you for your trust in us. We thank you for your hopefulness. We thank you for sharing our Aloha.

I was never the girl that dreamed about their fairytale wedding growing up. I never imagined my perfect wedding dress, hair style or decor. Not to Imply that I never thought it would happen one day, it was just not something I pictured as a little girl.
When Rob and I got engaged, I had NO IDEA where to even start! I joined all of the bridal email list to hopefully gain some clarity. It didn’t work, lol. Overwhelmed doesn’t even begin to touch on how I was feeling.
After Rob and I decided that we would “elope” in Maui, it got even more overwhelming. How was I supposed to plan our wedding 4,605 miles away. I googled so many companies. I almost chose a different company until they sent me a sample wedding video. It made me cringe.
I started focusing more on the reviews of these companies. I came across Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and loved the reviews I was reading. I reached out one night and the planning began.
We put 100% blind trust in these women solely based on social proof and that is why I hope anyone reading this, that might be on the fence, chooses AMDW!
From the start, Darci put my mind at ease. She was readily available for me whenever I wanted to talk, even with a 6hour time difference and anytime I started to panic, she would bring me back to normal and reassure that everything would be great! She scheduled our marriage license appt, she linked me up with Bea from Classic Elegance Artistry who made me feel like a princess and she made sure every single detail was perfect! We had an awesome unity sand ceremony that included my son, who also got a Lei during the Lei exchange.
These 2 ladies then hiked almost a MILE down a cliff to accommodate a photo shoot that we really, really wanted. It was hot and uncomfortable but once we were down there, Penny was in her zone. She is so professional and so good at what she does. I could not have asked for more from these two!
For the little girl who never dreamed about her wedding day, If I had, I am POSITIVE it was exactly how June 29th 2018 went.
We are glad to have you both as our Ohana now! We love you!
Mahalo!
P.S. Small or large weddings! They will get it done for you!”
“I went online to look for a wedding planner in Maui. The variety of packages offered by Aloha Maui Dream Weddings is what first caught my attention. I called the phone number and talked to Darci on the phone. I knew immediately that I had found the right person to help us plan our sunset beach wedding. Darci made our wedding a fun and totally stress-free event. Penny Palmer Photography Team took beautiful pictures of our wedding. Darci and Penny are a great team, and made our wedding a totally comfortable and fun event. And they also helped us with questions we had about things to do while we were in Maui. We plan to go back to celebrate anniversaries in the future, and we will call these gals when we are there. Darci and Penny are friends for life!“

The very best Maui Wedding Venue… for every budget
Small, intimate but oh so very memorable….
.
.
What is on your wish list for your special day? Gone are the days of having to invite everyone you’ve ever met! Nowadays your special day is all about you and the love of your life with those friends and family close enough to drop everything for your special event.
Most people don’t have a list of invitees that necessitates a massive reception venue and so what to do if your guest list consists of only a few close friends and family but more than the intimate beach wedding concept?
[royalslider id=”5″]
The idea of a destination wedding at a Maui wedding venue is becoming not only extremely appealing, but quite often more cost effective than a “traditional” wedding . Just imagine how thrilled your guests will be to combine your magical day with a tropical island vacation? Not only will you and your other half never forget your wedding day but also those guests lucky enough to be with you will also hold your day forever in their treasured memories.
There are many places in the world that have experts that can create a destination wedding experience… places where you can put your wish list in someone else’s capable hands and just show up on that special day ready to be pampered. For my money though the places that top the list are places with sun, sand and sea. There is nothing like standing in paradise gazing at your love with the sun on your back and the sound of the ocean in your ears.
So what destination do you choose?
A place that would suit most any couple (and their guests) is Hawaii. And the pick of places in Hawaii is the wonderful island paradise of Maui. Maui is close enough from wherever in the world you’re traveling from, the weather is near perfect all year round and there are a couple wonderful venues to hold our special dream event.
In fact, choose Maui and a wedding planner like Aloha Maui Dream Weddings and there will really not be a lot more for you to worry about apart from what to pack in your suitcase.
We can guide you toward the most perfect Maui wedding venue for your dream day – we’ll take care of all the details so that your day will be absolutely perfect and stress free.
.
Your options for a wedding that might cater for perhaps around 25-50 guests, vary from
a beach ceremony and reception
a chapel followed by a more traditional ‘reception’
a garden wedding and an elegant hotel reception
a private or semi-private venue wedding & reception all-in-one
Speak to the delightful team at AMDW, explain your dream and let them make it not only come true, but more memorable than you had ever hoped.
Deciding which Maui Wedding Venue is right for you…
And if your vision is not quite “clear” they will help you find focus. They’ve done it all before and will listen and suggest what might work for you. They are tireless in finding perfection and can even help you understand your thoughts without you having to speak them. Put your trust and your dreams in their hands, you’ll be so glad you did. Of course if you know exactly what you want that’s great too, they will make sure that what you see in your mind translates into real life.
I can’t think of anything more elegant than pledging your life to your beloved’s and then strolling hand in hand into a flower and candle filled reception joined by only your closest family and friends. As the sun sets on your perfect day you will be over the moon that you chose Maui to start your married life together and I promise you, your guests will never forget your special day.
.
I also promise that Maui will from henceforth be your favorite island in all the world – it is mine!

There is such a magical place where the property gracefully meanders its way to the edge of the ocean through the shaded boughs of aged trees. One such property is located on the western coast of the island. Experience the combined luxury feel of old Hawaii with the conveniences of a modern Maui. A commercial kitchen, restrooms as well as changing rooms make hosting your wedding and reception an all-inclusive event with no need to move your wedding party from one location to another. Soft green lawns and swaying trees are inviting to your guests along with warm ocean breezes.
Wanting a Maui wedding venue with a more intimate feel? Enjoy beautiful island views from atop a hillside or set back with all the amenities of a larger venue but with a more personal feel. Serving staff waiting on your every need and your guests being entertained all night long. You won’t miss out on those romantic, sunset beach pictures either because beautiful beaches are within minutes.
Remarkable Maui sunsets combine to make your wedding day or night a truly memorable occasion. Whether your ceremony is held under the glowing Hawaiian sun or the twinkling tropical stars, Maui is an excellent choice for your wedding event.
It’s true! With the help of Google, Brides and Grooms are much more aware this year than in any previous years… 2014 Maui Weddings are skyrocketing – with the main difference being that these destination weddings are no longer site unseen. Brides and Grooms of 2014 Maui Weddings have a very good idea of what they envision and they want to work with Maui wedding planners that actually CARE about THEIR special day. We are proud that our clients ask us into their ohanas!
“Yayyy! Stress gone. Thanks Darci. I sure loved working with you all. Next vacation we’ll hunt you down and make you take a break for dinner!” – D. H., May 2014
That may sound like an obvious statement – to care about their special day. But the number one compliment we receive over and over is how they appreciate our clear communication, our dedication to making their special Maui Weddings perfect, and how much we CARE! Mahalo for those compliments – they’re true – we really care about each and every client. They now ask, “I want a planner for my wedding in Maui – who will care the most about my ceremony?”
“We are over the moon. The whole experience just surpassed our expectations. Thank you!” – J & D, May 2014
You should really like your wedding planner and you shouldn’t be paying a fortune for your planner to coordinate everything. If you want to tip your wedding planner after the fact, that’s always appreciated and in our opinion should be earned. We are grateful to be here for you.
So what all is trending this year for 2014 Maui Weddings?
The colors blue and orange…
So maybe not paired together, but blue is definitely a hot color this year. Adding blue ribbons to leis, blue flowers in bouquets or touches of blue in the petal paths is really beautiful against the golden sand and the teal blue ocean. We’ve done a couple black and teal weddings so far this year and the contrast was gorgeous! Of course you’ll want a morning wedding if you incorporate black into your color scheme.
Orange paired with corals, yellows and bright pinks make a dramatic statement and really sets a beautiful framework for the coupe’s faces and pictures. They compliment a Maui beach wedding very nicely!
Research…
Brides and grooms are getting to know more about their destination wedding team, the options available and Maui in general. Couples are researching and using Google images to help them be more informed. We offer tips for planning your wedding in hopes that you will find them useful and want to book with us. Enjoy those tips here.

Trains are back!

A beautiful chuppa ahead with your beloved getting that first glance at you from underneath. Lights strung from the trees are ready to glow for your reception afterward. Our private chef will have everything ready after your perfect Hawaiian ceremony. Everywhere you look there are flowers and candlelight. This day is all about you.

Your dream, Your way
. . . . .
Maybe your dream is to be married on one of the beautiful, warm sandy Maui beaches. As you walk the path to a beautiful circle of fresh cut tropical flowers, custom created special for you, you gaze around at the deep blue Pacific Ocean and those that matter most to you.

Your minister helps you capture all those beautiful moments that brought you to this point as you say your “I do’s” and begin your new path together.
We can help you with all the arrangements for your dinner after – from a full reception with wedding favors and linens, to an intimate table for two in a cabana with exquisite service. We can make it happen.
