Vows in a historic chapel

The two most charming and romantic churches on Maui are the Keawalaʻi Congregational Church, on the ocean in Makena, and the Episcopal St. John's Church, upcountry in the cool, quiet hills of Keokea.

The historic stone Keawalaʻi Congregational Church on the ocean in Makena, Maui

Historic Maui churches for weddings

Two very different settings: one at the water's edge in Makena, one high in the upcountry hills of Keokea.

Keawalaʻi Congregational Church · Makena

The oldest Hawaiian church on Maui, built in 1832, and the only Maui church for weddings situated directly on the ocean, with a small Hawaiian cemetery on its grounds. The simple interior features native Koa wood and seats 120 guests. Pastor Kealahou Alika, a Hawaiian minister of Christian faith, conducts a deeply personal ceremony and will meet with you before your wedding day to share Hawaiian wedding traditions.

St. John's Church · Keokea

A picturesque chapel set at 3,000 feet in upcountry Keokea, far from the hotels and the coast. With space for 50 guests, it is the perfect setting for a smaller, traditional church wedding in the cool, green hills of Maui.
