Fun Activities For Guests Attending A Wedding In Maui

By Ella Hemmings


A Maui destination wedding is an exciting event for both you and your guests. However, because your guests are traveling far for this ceremony, they probably will be staying in Maui for several days or even a week. It's important that the bridal couple offer their guests some helpful tips about local excursions and activities, so that they can truly make the most out of their time on the island.

Place a gift bag in each hotel guest room, and one handy option would be to purchase beach bags which can then double as a helpful tote. Load it up with a few amenities such as sunscreen, snacks and water as well as a bunch of local information. People need to know where to purchase items such as medicine or toiletries if the need arises, so provide a list of close-by grocery stores or drug stores. It's also nice to include a wedding itinerary that lists information about the ceremony, reception and other wedding-related events. You also should provide information about cool local excursions that people might enjoy.

Many people love coming to Maui and simply basking in the sun and playing in the ocean, but for people who have never been to the island, you might want to provide some assistance and directions. Provide a list of nearby beaches and how to get there as well as some information about each of the beaches. Maui has plenty of amazing options, but you probably just need to list three or four. If everyone is staying at a resort or large hotel, there probably will be beach access and definitely at least one swimming pool, and most hotels provide towels for their guests.

If your guests have an entire day free, consider booking a tour that takes them along the Road to Hana. While this 68-mile stretch of road can take an entire day to traverse, it's a wildly popular excursion and a great way to spend a day in Maui. The journey is almost entirely within a tropical rainforest and provides opportunities to hike to waterfalls, walk through jungles and enjoy some of the most beautiful coastline on earth. While you can rent a car and do the drive yourself, taking a tour bus frees you up to simply enjoy the scenery. Most tour companies provide food, which is important because food is only available at the beginning and the end of the journey.

Perhaps a full-day excursion is not something your guests care to do or you have even more leisure time to fill. Other fun options include whale watching trips, which are quite popular given that Maui provides some of the best opportunities in the world to see humpback whales. There are also kayaking tours, snorkeling tours, sunset cocktail cruises, parasailing and your guest could even consider taking a surfing lesson.
