You Will Love This Venue If

  • Permit: Simply Eloped will coordinate your beach permit.

Good to Know Before You Elope Here

The drive to Mahaʻulepu Beach can take longer than expected, especially with the last stretch on a dirt road, leave at least 15 minutes earlier than Google recommends to be safe. Travel light! Extra bags or gear can be distracting in photos, so keep essentials in your car or hotel until after the ceremony. If a quick rain shower passes through (it’s Kauai, after all!), you can wait it out in your car or take gorgeous photos in the rain, ask your Personal Elopement Planner for examples of rainy day ceremonies, we love to share! If you plan to wear heels, bring comfortable walking shoes for the sandy and uneven paths—you’ll be glad you did. Tips for your team are always appreciated—$30/person is customary. Most importantly, relax and take it all in. You’re in one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Breathe, smile, and enjoy every moment.
