Whether you’re into hearts, candy, and flowers (heart-shaped candy flowers?) or secretly anti-Valentine’s Day, travel is one gift everyone can agree on. Let’s be honest: in the middle of cold, gray February, we could all use a vacation.
We’ve zeroed in on some of most romantic cities in the country, with swoon-worthy attractions and intimate tables for two—plus cozy, affordable vacation rentals to woo that special someone. Enjoy the privacy of your own place and a full kitchen for whipping up a romantic dinner or thoughtful breakfast in bed. See Trip Advisor Article Here
What to Do: “E komo mai” means “welcome” or “come in” in Hawaiian, and if you’re looking for the perfect paradise getaway, you’ll feel right at home in Maui. Set aside a day to follow the legendary Road to Hana along Maui’s northeastern shore. The famous stretch of highway—52 miles between Kahului and Hana—winds past breathtaking beaches, gardens, and rainforests, with plenty of photo ops along the way. Prefer to observe the scenery from above? Take a helicopter tour over west Maui for striking views of hidden waterfalls and dormant volcanoes, or soar above the trees on the Skyline Haleakala zipline tour.
Where to Eat: A trip to Hawaii wouldn’t be complete without a luau, and the Feast at Lele promises both Polynesian fare and an unforgettable performance featuring traditional Samoan, Tahitian, and Hawaiian dances. Up the romance factor with an intimate table for two overlooking the Pacific at Mama’s Fish House. The old Hawaiian decor and lavish flower arrangements set the stage for a memorable meal of fresh, local fish.

Dear Jayanne,
Thank you very much for your email. We both are well but missing Maui a lot. We have fallen in love with your island and will be definitely back sometime in the future. It was like a fairy tale and, unfortunately, ended like all fairy tales yet left an indelibly wonderful impression for the whole life and all of you are part of it :).
I would like to say again that we are extremely grateful for our wedding and could not wish a better one. You did an incredible job!
We will be happy to write good reviews and will surely recommend you to all our friends and everybody else. We don't need any reward for it. This is least we can do to show our appreciation.
You are amazing people! Please keep making other couples happy by creating an unforgettable experience and memories, and introducing your beautiful island with the always stunning weather to them :)! Best wishes, Ekaterina and Ehab
Dear Jayanne (our Wedding Coordinator), Branden Sequeira (our Photographer), Robert Kuya (our Minister) and Jackie (my Hair and Makeup Stylist),
Myself and Ehab would like to sincerely thank you for making our wedding ceremony so special! Everything went absolutely perfect! We had a lot of fun and utterly enjoyed every minute of it. We couldn't wish for a better wedding!
Once again, we wholeheartedly thank you for this perfect day to remember forever! All the best wishes to you, Ekaterina and Ehab January 11, 2017
Mike and I had an amazing Maui wedding experience from the beginning! Every time I e-mailed or called Jayanne, our Wedding Coordinator, she got back to me right away and made sure everything was taken care of. I could not have dreamed of a more perfect wedding thanks to her incredible planning. A week before our wedding she had to change our minister (due to illness) and we could not have been happier with her choice. We were fortunate enough to get Robert (Kuya) Alamodin. He was so much fun and performed a beautiful heartfelt ceremony for us. Everything turned out perfect!
Jayanne also made sure that we had the best musician and an Onsite Person, "JJ", that took care of everything. She was great! Not only did she have everything set up down on the beach, but she helped calm my nerves when I arrived and saw that it was raining.
Once our Videographer (Brian) and Photographers (Gordon Nash & Brandon Vincent) got to the beach they were patient enough to wait for the rain to pass, which didn't last long. Everyone was so kind and nice about everything!
We could not believe that the next day we were able to watch our wedding video that Brian put together. I have never heard of anyone getting to see their wedding video the next day and have it be so beautiful. We are in love with it and still can't stop watching it! Not to mention our photos that Gordon and Brandon took...WOW! They are breathtaking!! We could not be more pleased with all of them and how fast we got them back. I was expecting to wait over a month but we got them back within a few weeks. Both Gordon and Brandon were a lot of fun to work with and we were very impressed with everything they did!
Our wedding was definitely a dream come true thanks to everyone's hard work and professionalism. Mahalo, Jenna & Mike December 21, 2016
(Any areas we could improve upon? Honestly, I don't think so. You guys were all AMAZING!!!! Thank you so much for everything!)
