Why Maui is So Romantic...

For years local Hawaiians have been saying, "Maui is the best." And its true, even the tourists have consistently voted Maui to be the "world's best island," year after year. There really isn't any other place on earth more romantic than Maui.

You'll see it in the incredible beauty of the landscape. Almost everywhere you go, you can see the ocean or a beautiful beach. Our tropical breezes keep us cool through out our never-ending summer. And you'll savor the fragrant aroma of the flowers that you find on so many bushes and trees all over...

Everything about Maui cries out to remind you how much you love each other. It is not uncommon for someone to come up to me during or after a wedding and ask if I have a business card... Couples are often so inspired by watching our weddings on the beach that they decide to tie the knot themselves before leaving our island paradise. You'll never forget your Maui wedding, because this island is an incredible place to commit yourselves to each other.

 

 "Everything was perfect. We wouldn't have changed one thing. Thank you for making our Maui dream wedding be a dream come true!"
- Erik and Krystal Mason

Maui has the best beaches in Hawaii for a sunset wedding. We have more and better beaches facing the west than any of the other islands. And we know which beaches are best for your Maui sunset wedding photography. Almost every night there is an awesome sunset which we'll use as a backdrop for your romantic memories.

The best wedding beaches on Maui are on the South Side. Because I've done so many weddings on so many different beaches, I certainly have my favorites. And the best beaches which I use most are more private, with less chance of wind and rain, some rocky outcroppings along with a few palm trees hanging over the beach. You can see many of them here on this site.

Maui has better weather and smaller crowds than any of the other Hawaiian islands. And because of that, it provides an idea location for your Maui wedding ceremony. Whether you get married on a beach, in a tropical garden or standing in front of a waterfall, Maui offers the perfect climate for your ceremony.


We'll Make Your Dream Maui Wedding Come True

You want to be able to relax and enjoy yourselves. Our job is to take care of all the many details so that your Maui wedding comes off just like the wedding of your dreams. All you have to do is just show up and enjoy your romantic, intimate moments together.

I can't tell you how many times my couples have said to me, "Everything was perfect! Our Maui wedding exceeded our expectations." But don't take my word for it. Look around on this website and read some of the many comments I have received from each of our Maui weddings.
 

 

 Our Maui wedding ceremony was awesome and I still get all choked up every time I watch the video. The pictures are gorgeous, the music was beautiful, and the whole day was incredible. We literally didn't have to do anything but show up to celebrate our special day. The makeup artist and hairstylist did a fantastic job. I can't say enough about how pleasant our experience was dealing with you. You took all the stress out of what other brides have said is the most nerve racking day of their lives."  
— Julie and Ken Gota

Finding the Perfect Maui Wedding Location

Of course, the most popular locations for doing a wedding on Maui are the beaches. Maui beach wedding sites are free and we have so many great locations. But don't forget that we can also coordinate your wedding in a tropical garden site, in front of a waterfall, or inside a quaint Maui wedding chapel. You can have whatever Maui wedding location you want.

You can choose a Maui waterfall wedding site. Most natural waterfall sites are either inaccessible on the east side of the island. I have a great waterfall location for couples who want a natural setting overlooking the ocean. It is also perfect for larger groups.

You can also choose a private, secluded estate. There are a number pf homes and other sites available for you to rent. We keep on top of the various sites that are available for our Maui wedding couples.

You can get married in the shadow of Clint Eastwood's house! Yes, some of my Maui beach sites have a view of Clint Eastwood's home in the background.

You can select a beautiful, private tropical garden location. I have several different sites which you can choose from, each in a different part of the island.

You can choose a gazebo site. There are a number of available gazebos, and they all have their own unique look. I even have portable gazebos. Gazebos are best used as a backdrop for your wedding, so that they don't get in the way of your Maui wedding photography or videography.

You can choose a Maui wedding chapel or church. We can help you choose from a wide variety of different locations, including quaint old churches and beautiful wedding chapels.

Don't feel bad if you are still undecided about where you want your wedding to take place. Our couples often depend upon us to tell them which beaches or other Maui wedding sites are the best. Feel free to ask any question when you call, because we're here to help.

Professional Maui Wedding Photography

If you check around you'll find that many of the other Maui wedding companies don't have their own photographers on staff. That means for each wedding they book they will have to farm out this service to whoever is available. That also means you will not know how good the photographer is until after you receive your photography back.

Our two staff photographers have shot 96 percent of our weddings. So you can look over this website to see the quality of our photography or you can go to my Maui Wedding Photographer to see John's website.

We have shot close well over 3000 weddings. And we think our work is as good as photographers charging triple what our rates are! We enjoy what we do, and we think it comes out in the quality of the images that we shoot for our couples.

We shoot only high-quality digital photography. Shooting digital allows us to tell right during the wedding if we have captured the shot. And it also allows us the opportunity to take extra images so that we can get greater coverage of each wedding. You can read about our Maui wedding photography and our Maui wedding videos here.

 

 "We didn't have to do anything except show up. Our friends and family raved over our photos and videos. We were extremely pleased with both. Thanks again for everything."
- Dan and Rachel Roberts

We love the look of candid shots, but we have found that "candids" often look better if they have been a little posed. It is important that your photographer has a good understanding of how to pose you to make you look good. You want to have him put you into good basic poses and then encourage you to respond to each other in the moment. That way, you will look good but you will also be responding naturally to each other. And that's what we do at Affordable Maui Weddings.

Your Maui Wedding Ceremony

We have included many of our Maui Wedding Ceremonies right on this website so you can read them over and decide which one is right for your wedding. Good marriages are built on strong commitments and our Maui wedding ceremonies will help you in making those commitments to each other. Also, we want to answer all of your Hawaii wedding license questions. For that, take a look at our Maui Wedding License page. 

Our Secret Maui Weather Tips

Many brides tend to worry about what the weather will be here, especially if they are coming during winter. We often hear these concerns on the telephone, because our brides are coming from states where weather is always an issue. Or maybe they've watched or heard that rain is being forecasted in Hawaii... Let me share with you just some tips on how we deal with the weather here:

We help you choose the right Maui wedding location. Maui has definite weather patterns. It rains most on the north and eastern sides of the island, while it is usually sunny on the south side. This means if you choose the right Maui wedding location, you will be much less likely to have to worry about rain.

We will help you choose the best Maui beach locations. After performing weddings for the last ten years here in Hawaii, we know which beaches are most likely to have the best weather and where there will be wind. And we'll help make the right choices for good weather.

We will have a back up beach when the wind is high or rain threatens. Several of the beaches we use are sheltered so that wind is less of a factor. And if it is raining at one beach, it is usually dry at a beach nearby. Whenever the conditions on one beach are not right, we have several great beaches to fall back on.
 

 

 "We were so thrilled with the pictures and ceremony! Mark and I came home to Oahu and he returned to Iraq about a week ago. Thanks to you guys, we have beautiful pictures and memories to share with our loved ones and help the two of us make it through the remainder of his deployment!"
- Mark and Katie Barton

Over ten years and 1700 Maui weddings, we have only had only two or three weddings rained out. And even on those rare cases, the next day usually dawned bright and gorgeous. In the rare event where we get some bad weather, we can still make certain that you still get Maui'd (perhaps in a covered location).

This Is Tight Economy

Don't let the word "Affordable" in our name fool you. It doesn't mean that we do a "cheap" job. It doesn't mean we can't give you the most romantic Maui wedding possible. On the contrary, we know how to provide quality Maui weddings at reasonable prices.

Let me assure you, tying the knot here in paradise offers real value over almost any mainland wedding. A Maui wedding will be surprisingly inexpensive compared to most mainland weddings. One of our brides brought 10 people to her wedding from Connecticut, had a private Maui wedding location and all the trimmings, and told us: "You know, even after paying for everyone to come here, this was still much cheaper than what my friend paid at home just for her sit-down dinner reception."

And you won't have to hop on a jet after the service to get away to a remote destination. You'll already be in paradise. One of the hardest things about coming to Hawaii will be deciding what fun Maui activities you will want to enjoy.

Get married on the beach. With the exception of a State Beach Wedding Permit, all of the beaches are free. Compared to a mainland wedding, you be pleasantly surprised at how inexpensive your Maui wedding can be if you use our services.

To save money, choose one of our Maui Wedding Packages. We've created several basic packages which will not only save you money, but they make it easier for you to order our Maui wedding services, because most of the basic services which our couples want are included in each package.

So one of your first stops on the Affordable Maui Weddings website you will want to look at is our Maui Wedding Packages page. Here you'll find five basic Maui weddings packages which will save you money and make your decisions so much easier. On the Discount Maui Wedding Packages page are also a whole group of Maui weddings links on a variety of our wedding services.

 

 "You did a wonderful job in helping our dream come true. John did an excellent ceremony with us and with the entire wedding as well. The photos were SUPERB!!!!!"
— Carlos and Denise Mariso

All of Our Prices Are Clearly Marked

We believe our prices are reasonable and affordable.  If you've checked our competition, you see that we provide our Maui weddings at affordable rates. We believe that the quality we provide can be offered at reasonable rates.

We clearly list all of our prices right on our website. We do this because we want you to be able to read the prices ahead of time. You don't want surprises later. We will always be completely upfront about our prices. We don't have any hidden fees that we take on later (except of course the excise taxes). 

If you order a larger custom wedding or a catered reception dinner, we'll give you a firm price. This is hard to get from most companies. But  the price I give will cover everything. (Some caterers will give a price that doesn't include things like table settings, chairs and the table rentals). We will purposely include all of that in our quote so that you will know there are no hidden changes.

A $200 deposit will book your wedding day on our schedule. Our $200 non-refundable deposit fee will be taken off the price of your wedding (it is not an additional fee). It secures your date on our calendar.

We can offer such good value for our couples because we perform many of our Maui weddings using our in-house staff. Because we have our own minister and Maui wedding photographers on staff, we are able to offer services which maintain our high standards, yet still keep our prices reasonable.

We Can't Accept Every Maui Wedding,
Sometimes We Must Turn Couples Down...

We don't want you to be disappointed, but sometimes we must turn down Maui weddings when we're just too busy. In the past, we've run a full store front office with three coordinators and lots of helpers. But we would rather keep our business smaller and more personal, because we enjoy giving that personalized service without all the hassles of having to hire and train lots of employees. That's why we only do a limited number of weddings each month. So to avoid being left out of our schedule, be sure and call us early.

And one more thing. If you book your wedding before our next price increase, we GUARANTEE that your price won't go up (as long as you've already given us your deposit). So give us a ring now right away!
