    We chose Makena Weddings for our small sunset beach ceremony, and they made everything effortless…read more Having attended a ceremony they coordinated ~10 years ago, we knew we were in good hands. Laurie and Cindy guided us through their beach package, adding a musician at our request (they booked Marvin Tevaga), recommending the perfect beach location, arranging Amber Quale Photography, and having co-founder Reverend Al Terry officiate. The bride shared a few bouquet ideas, and the result was stunning. We planned everything over email just a month in advance, and every vendor they recommended was outstanding. As Laurie predicted, we had the beach to ourselves. Mother Nature gave us a breathtaking sunset that Amber captured beautifully, Marvin's ukulele and voice added elegance and joy, and Al not only felt like family but was genuinely engaged--helping us focus on the meaning of the moment rather than just the logistics. If you want a stress-free, classy, and unforgettable beach wedding ceremony, Makena Weddings is the way to go.

    Laurie at Makena Weddings is the best! After an absolutely horrible experience with another…read moreplanning company, I scoured the internet and reviews for someone to help me plan a destination wedding. I was soon blessed with making contact with Laurie and the rest is history! The next nine months of distance planning was eerily effortless! All I needed to do was give her basic details of what I wanted and Laurie made it happen! She listened, worked within my desired budget, gave honest advice and warnings about certain things that are/are not necessary. Laurie even helped calm me by handling some last minute makeup concerns. Once on island, I met her to go over some final details and I immediately felt connected to her and so blessed to have Laurie on my team. I don't say that lightly because some people are just in it for the money. Laurie truly cares about creating a beautiful wedding event. My fiancé and I both felt her care. On the day of the wedding there was an overcast sky and light rain. I was slightly concerned, because who doesn't want a sunny bright blue sky for their wedding day? Laurie just said, "It's just good luck! No worries. Let's get you ready!" At that moment I released the sadness and radiated joy. Our wedding felt truly magical! I was able to walk on air to confidently and happily marry the love of my life. Our Officiant was Reverend Al. There are truly no words to explain how he gently and genuinely he commanded the ceremony. His soft voice yet spirited passion floated around us throughout the service. Reverend Al even sensed our nervousness and prompted kisses throughout. What a great gift to us! My aunt from Georgia later said, "Baby girl, don't know what he was saying the whole time, but I felt and understood those beautiful words in my heart!" That comment spoke volumes to me since we were not in a church but outside overlooking the ocean. Reverend Al was awesome! Our guests were amazed with the beauty of ceremony and dinner reception. The location, catering, florals, cake and staff were so wonderful. Many said it was the best wedding they'd attended. I, too, was blown away because although I had an idea of what I wanted, the reality far surpassed my imagination. Don't hesitate to choose Makena Weddings to make your dreams come true!
