If you wanted to take your wedding outside to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Kapalua coast, The Steeple House offers outdoor options that can accommodate up to 500 people. Our personal favorite is the intimate Mau’u Terrace Lawn that sits directly outside of the altar with the glistening ocean on the horizon. If you’re looking for a classic and elegant setting for your big day this could be the one for you!
