Sugar Beach Events is one of Maui’s most popular, modern, and perfectly designed venues for your celebration. I have photographed and been a part of many many weddings at this oceanfront venue, and below is my firsthand experience with it.
Sugar Beach Events is located right on Sugar Beach, which is an expansive beautiful white sandy beach right in Kihei. The West Maui mountains in the backdrop make for gorgeous photos at sunset time, the sun set just beyond the mountains throughout the year.
The venue is modern and was designed for events, so its layout works perfectly for your wedding. There is a bridal suite to get ready in, bathrooms, and a loft for the groom to get ready in. The main room is indoors, but there are huge glass sliding doors that open to the lawn and ocean views in front. It is unique in that you can be indoors but have such grand outdoor ocean views.
Sugar Beach Events is a rare venue that pairs oceanfront beauty with a full-service, chef-driven kitchen. Known for it’s whimsical and refined dishes, the culinary experience is inspired by Maui’s land and sea, fresh island ingredients, bold flavors, and artful presentation come together to create a menu that feels both elevated and joyful.

I’ve had the honor of photographing weddings and elopements in Hawaii over the past 8 years, and I absolutely love what I do. Growing up here has given me an in-depth understanding of the islands, from amazing locations, lighting, timing, and hidden gems to our local island culture. I love sharing this with couples and being a part of a custom tailored Hawaii wedding or elopement that is beyond incredible.
