Ben and Pono’s Maui Destination Wedding

Brittny Drye Founder + Editor-in-Chief of Love Inc. Magazine | On-Air Wedding Expert | LGBTQ+ Inclusivity in the Wedding Industry

Ben, a Hollywood executive producer, met the love of his life, Pono, at a banquet for a national volleyball tournament. After dating for some time, Ben proposed in September by surprising Pono at a family gathering in Hawaii when he was “supposed” to be working in New York. When it came to deciding where to wed, the choice was simple. They headed to Pono's hometown of Maui and hosted an absolutely gorgeous ceremony with both Hawaiian and Jewish traditions at Makena Beach and Golf Resort, planned by White Orchid Wedding and captured by Mariah Milan Photography.
