Maui Wedding Guides and Tips

What kinds of musicians can we have at a beach wedding in Maui?

We’re often asked what kinds of musicians a couple can have if they’re eloping. We love this question because there’s a musican for every type of wedding on Maui!

Maui beach wedding musicians bring sound and melodies that match the relaxed ocean vibe. Couples can pick acoustic performers, duos, or even amp up the sound (just a little bit). Options like ukulele, guitar, and violin are perfect for elopements. The beautiful melodies of the harp are also available, provided the location can accommodate the harpist’s needs.

Ukulele Players

Ukulele artists bring cheerful, melodic strums to Maui ceremonies. They pick Hawaiian classics or fresh covers – most of our ukulele artists are incredibly talented singers as well. Pictured: Kason Gomes, with the most beautiful falsetto voice you’ve ever heard.

Guitar Performers

Guitarists deliver warm fingerpicking for romantic beach moments. Acoustic styles shine during golden hour with clear, heartfelt tones. They sometimes pack light amps to counter soft winds and keep the music steady. Pictured: Kalani Miles – who is also a Hawaii recording artist and Na Hoku HanoHano award winner.

Violin Soloists

Violin performers add graceful melodies to your Maui wedding day. They shift from timeless Canon in D to beachy pop tunes that rise with the waves.

Harp players weave soft, shimmering notes for a magical feel. Lap or portable models work best when the path from the parking runs under 100 yards. Their romantic selections linger in memories. Harpists are best suited for flat, easy access areas.
