How To Plan Your Maui Destination Wedding

By Ella Hemmings


If you'd rather choose a fantastic destination for your wedding than plan a large event near your home, you aren't alone. Destination weddings continue to rise in popularity because they allow a couple to choose a truly special place for their wedding ceremony. While this is an excellent idea, it also means you have to plan the whole event over the phone or via email and this can be difficult. So, if a destination wedding sounds good to you, think about following some of these helpful tips.

One of the best ways to ensure that the whole event runs smoothly is to find a great wedding planning at your destination. For example, the wedding planners at Love Maui Weddings have been helping couples plan special weddings in Maui for more than 20 years. Hawaii, especially Maui, is a top location for destination weddings, and these Maui wedding coordinators can handle all of the details, from planning out the ceremony, finding the minister, helping with the marriage license, acquiring flowers, finding a great photographer, planning a reception and many other important details.

If you aren't exactly sure what you want for your wedding, simply browse through the many packages offered at Love Maui Weddings and choose one that fits your style and budget. Many destination wedding planners offer packages, and this is an excellent way to make the planning process easy. If you find a package that suits most of your needs but you want to personalize the event with a few extras, simply ask about any unique add-ons that might be available.

At Love Maui Weddings, there are some very unique add-ons. If you choose the romantic "Love is in the Air" wedding package, many amenities are included such as arranging for a Hawaiian minister and hiring a guitarist or a vocalist as well as hiring a hula dancer or perhaps a Hawaiian drummer. The package also includes the beach location and set-up, as well as some photography, a keepsake DVD and keepsake wedding certificate and a few other wonderful items. If you want to add an extra touch of romance, simply add on an option to have the bride arrive from the sea via outrigger canoe.

Your guests should be a huge consideration if you are hosting a destination wedding. Generally, these are smaller events because the costs of travel are so high. You can do some groundwork and look for the best flight prices and schedules for your guests and even try to arrange for a hotel at your destination to offer a discounted rate for the guests. Often if you reserve a block of rooms, each room will cost less than the normal rates. Be sure to give people many months in advance to plan and save for this special wedding.

It is nice to create a special wedding welcome package for your guests. Include an itinerary of all the wedding-related events as well as a map of the area. It can be fun to plan a few fun excursions for your guests, if possible. For example, if you are marrying on Maui, treat everyone to a sunset whale watching cruise. Often your wedding planner can help with these types of arrangements, so be sure to ask.
