Wedding Day

Huialoha Church (1859)

Ceremony

Reception

Huialoha Church. Over 150 years ago the Hawaiian people of Kaupo undertook the tremendous task of building Huialoha Church by hand. They harvested coral from the ocean to be baked in an imu and made into mortar; they hauled rocks to the site and put the two together to erect the walls. Huge logs were brought down from the mountains for the lumber needed to complete the roof, windows and doors. Early records show a Rev. Whittlesey in Hana in 1849 and that there were 231 church members in Kaupo. Huialoha Church was not finished being built until 1859 and records show approximately the same number of members at that time. Over time, church attendance dwindled and now only special services are held.   This little church, sitting on the point of land here at Mokulau, Kaupo, has endured the ravages of time and weather; it is truly a beautiful and spiritual place.   A wahi pana. A special place.

Things to Do

The travel out to this special location can be a long journey through some rough terrain so prepare for a long yet beautiful drive winding along the coast of the magical island of Maui. Here’s a couple useful links for accommodation and information about the area.

Staying at this place the night before or after the wedding sounds like a great idea. We wouldnt suggest driving the legendary Road to Hana on the day you arrive. 

Hana-Maui Resort

Definitely recommend staying on the South Side of Maui in Kihei or Wailea. Both are great hotels!
