A Majestic Wedding Venue Review: Maui Pineapple Chapel, Kapalua

December 1st, 2023

As a professional photographer,

I am blessed with the opportunity to capture the magic of many special days. One venue that particularly stands out is the Maui Pineapple Chapel in Kapalua

. This picturesque venue, where I had the honour of photographing a wedding before the tragic Lahaina wildfire, offers an unrivalled beauty that makes for truly stunning wedding photos.

 

One of the standout features of the Maui Pineapple Chapel is the breathtaking ocean view. The azure waters of the Pacific Ocean serve as a beautiful backdrop, providing a serene and tranquil setting for the exchange of vows. The sight of the endless ocean, combined with the soft sound of the waves, adds a romantic touch that is truly unforgettable.

 

Another highlight of this venue is the natural light. As a photographer, the quality of light is crucial in creating the perfect shot. The Chapel's large windows and open design allow for an abundance of natural light, casting a soft glow that adds a dreamy quality to the photographs. This natural light, combined with the Chapel's white interiors, creates an ethereal atmosphere that is simply magical.

 

The lush greenery surrounding the venue, especially the towering palm trees, add to the tropical charm of the Chapel. The palm trees, swaying gently in the breeze, frame the venue perfectly and provide cool shade for guests. They also give a unique Hawaiian touch to the photographs, enhancing their aesthetic appeal.

 

But perhaps the most enchanting feature of the Maui Pineapple Chapel is the sunset. As the day turns into evening, the sky is painted with hues of pink, orange and purple, creating a breathtaking spectacle. The setting sun, reflecting off the ocean, creates a golden light that is perfect for capturing romantic moments.

 

The Maui Pineapple Chapel, with all its beauty and charm, is a haven for wedding photography. My heart goes out to the community affected by the Lahaina wildfire, and my thoughts are with my friends on Maui. The resilience of the community and the enduring beauty of this venue serve as a testament to the strength and spirit of Maui. I look forward to the day when I can return to this beautiful island to capture more memorable moments.
