When it is a small wedding party or just a couple, we will usually make a reservation for you at one of the finer restaurants. Another option is a Beachside Chef. This is very romantic and elegant. We even have couples that just linger after sunset and have a romantic picnic for two. This is your day and it should be the way you want it. Once we start planning we will be happy to have menus sent to you.

If you want something private or semi private just let us know! You can rent private homes here that are right on the ocean. This is a wonderful way to have privacy at an affordable price. You will need at least 1 1/2 to 2 hours for the wedding and photography. Then maybe an additional 2 or 3 for the reception. The most expensive part of a reception is the bar. You can keep costs down by limiting what you serve. When using private locations you will have to purchase your own alcohol. A Bartender can provide the ice, cups and mixers for you. When using a Hotel for your reception, all food and berverages must be purchased through them. You can visit our menu link below if you are planning a private reception.

We can arrange for a Band or DJ or you can bring your own music and rent the Ipod speaker system. Any style of music is available. From a single guitarist or harp to a rock and roll or ballroom type band. We even have Karaoke available if there are any singers in the group. Whatever menu or theme you desire is available. A small private Luau can be arranged and catered by the best Luau caterer on Maui. A very fun thing to do is to have a hula lesson taught to all who will particiapate.

For groups under 25, it is sometimes more practical to use a restaurant for your reception. There are a few that are more suitable than others.We do have a few private locations that are not too expensive and once we know your needs we can help you find the right place. For more detailed information on small private parties just give us a call at 800 808-4144 and let us know what your needs are. At most of these locations you save on rentals as there is usually enough furniture available.

The keyword is flexibility. We will arrange whatever you desire. Let us know your budget and we will make suggestions to help guide you. We want to be sure you get the best available for your special day at an affordable price. We can do Luaus at the beach but keep in mind there has to be appropriate parking available and that after dark the bathroom facilities are locked. Another great idea is, if you are staying in a condominium they usually have guest facilities that can be used with permission. Most are free to use and some have just a cleaning fee.

If we are planning your wedding and you have less than 75 guests, our fee for planning a private reception is $300.00. If you just want our help to plan the reception only, our fee is $500. We also charge $75.00 per hour to be onsite at the reception and this is a requirement at any private home. This does include the set up and breakdown of all rentals. We do require a $500 non-refundable deposit to begin planning a private catered reception. 50% of the total balance will be due 30 days prior to your arrival. These payments must be by check. For restaurant receptions a credit card deposit is all you need.

Some restaurants have areas that they use for wedding receptions and some you can even buy out for the evening. If you have 75 to 100 people this is usually affordable. It is also a good option to have a coordinator for a least the first 2 hours of a hotel reception as well. You need someone there to make sure everything goes smoothly and to announce your Best Man's Toast and your First Dance. Usually 2 hours of coverage is enough. The fee for this is $75 per hour also.

When you use a Restaurant for your reception, we can arrange for table centerpieces to match your wedding flowers. You might also want to consider having the Photographer or Videographer be there for the action part of the reception as well. Our Photographers will do the reception time for $100 per extra hour of coverage if you have a large enough photo package. Some restaurants we use for receptions do allow us to bring in DJs and even live musicians or a Hula Show.

For larger weddings and receptions with more than 75 guests, we will require a non refundable deposit of $1000 and our fee will be a service charge of 15% added on to the entire cost of the wedding and reception. 50% of that service charge will be due 3 months in advance of your wedding date. The entire balance will be due 30 days prior to your wedding date. For groups with a lot of small children attending we recommend a babysitter. You will need someone at the reception to keep an eye on the children. We have found that when guests begin to drink they sometimes forget their responsibilities. With the ocean so close by most locations, the last thing we want is for anyone to be hurt! We will be happy to refer you to someone!

This is a pretty cute fruit appetizer! Serves about 30 people. It tastes and looks delicious.
