For a couple who considers Hawaii one of their favorite places on the planet, hosting their wedding on Maui was more than a destination—it was a deeply personal invitation into their hearts. Their vision? To share the magic of the islands with the people they love most, curating an experience that was equal parts elegant escape and vibrant celebration. With a design palette of French blue, tropical green, and classic white, this wedding radiated upscale island sophistication. Every detail reflected the couple’s mantra: “How do we share this with all our favorite people?” That philosophy shaped everything—from the welcome experience to the final dance under the stars. They toured over 14 venues across Hawaii, but it was the Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort that stole their hearts. The deciding factor? A stately, windswept tree—later dubbed the “ceremony tree”—that became a visual symbol for their love. Sketched in watercolor and turned into a logo, it found its way onto custom stationery, signage, and heartfelt wedding details.

The florals were a dream of tropical textures and rich greens, softened by creamy white blooms and punctuated with subtle hints of blue. Each arrangement was artful yet wild, designed to feel organic and luxe. The ceremony took place under the beloved “ceremony tree,” adorned minimally to let nature’s majesty shine through. At the reception, the modern aesthetic set a warm and romantic tone.

As the sun set and the stars emerged, the celebration transformed. The couple surprised even themselves by going “all in” on the after-party—and it was worth every detail. A Tropical Disco theme took over the space with a stunning floral installation, shimmering props for guests, and even a live saxophone performance that kept the energy electric. The bride’s white sneakers made their debut, guests danced until they couldn’t anymore, and everyone left with full hearts—and maybe a few sequin-covered souvenirs.
