Getting Married on Maui

From all-inclusive wedding packages to an intimate ceremony overlooking the ocean to an elopement, getting married on Maui is beautiful and romantic.  See here for tips on photography, locations, flowers, officiants, and more.

3 Popular Maui Must-Haves

​Maui is known for great food and fun drinks, here are three you must try! 
  • The Mai Tai: hands down the best place to get a Mai Tai on Maui is at Monkeypod Kitchen.  With Old Lahaina light and dark rums, macadamia nut orgeat, orange curacao, fresh lime juice, and topped with a liliko'i foam, this is the Mai Tai most sold on the island.  You can get a Mai Tai at almost any restaurant or bar on Maui.  For a great happy hour version, we like the one from Ohana Seafood Bar & Grill on S Kihei Rd (pictured below)
  • Shave Ice: commonly mispronounced as shaved ice, this delectable treat is made even better with a scoop of ice cream at the bottom and a Snow Cap!  Ululani's Hawaiian Shave Ice can be found all over the island.  The ice they use is truly shaved and they have over 45 flavors to choose from.
  • The Chocolate Pearl: for the best in fine dining and a fantastic dessert, Mama's Fish House is the place to go for a romantic or special occasion meal.  Their Polynesian Black Pearl dessert is a shell shaped chocolate wafer cookie with a pearl made of chocolate mousse, covered in glistening chocolate ganache and toasted coconut, and surrounded by a lilliko'i syrup
