Kylie was great and had us all on track with what we were supposed to do, she was a delight. Our officiant, Kuya made the whole thing meaningful yet lighthearted and comfortable. He was someone who will stick with me, just a great man. The ukulele player and Hulu dancer were a perfect compliment to our ceremony & mini celebration. Our photographer did a phenomenal job at making the pictures easy and comfortable, not an easy job! We loved her and can't wait to see her work from our day. My hair and makeup artist, Shelby from Simply Beauty Maui was amazing! She was there early and got me finished exactly on our time schedule. I'm a hairstylist myself and was concerned I would be too picky but she did such a beautiful job, I didn't change a thing. Every single person that we worked with from Simple Maui Wedding's has been 5 stars for professionalism, friendliness and just great at what they do. I would highly recommend your company to anyone considering a destination wedding. John and Jenifer Boese

We decided to add a wedding to our already-planned holiday, and so only had about 2 months to plan....no problem! This is clearly what this company is built for. 1. The officiant [Joe!] they selected for our non-religious, Hawaiian, spiritual service....he was perfect and brought exactly the vibe we were looking for. 2. Karma photography was fantastic! She captured so many great shots, and was flexible when we wanted to move down the beach to change-up the background. She spent the time she needed to get the shots, and we will be forever grateful. 3. The flowers were gorgeous! We did leis for everyone, a masculine green lei for the groom and white flowers for my bouquet 4. Everyone at Simple Maui Wedding was friendly, great communicators and made you feel special and welcomed. We were a tiny little group - 6 of us total - and we felt just as taken care of as a large wedding party. Highly recommend Simple Maui Wedding if you are getting married on Maui!

5 Stars - Lori and Her Team EXCEEDED expectations…read more We had the pleasure of working with Lori at Topical Maui Weddings for our February wedding in Maui, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From our first consultation to the big day, they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The attention to detail was impeccable. As a local bride, Lori's on island connections were truly unmatched. We had the best vendor recommendations and she always secured us the best prices. As a type A bride we met with multiple wedding planners before selecting Tropical Maui Weddings and her fair pricing along side her excellent connections and recommendations made his decision a no-brainer. They helped us secure the perfect venue for our reception a buy out at Gather on Maui, coordinated and managed all our vendors, and made sure everything ran smoothly, so we could focus on enjoying the moment. I walked into the venue on wedding day and was blown away by the work that went into making this the MOST beautiful day. The team was incredibly professional and truly understood our vision. Everything was handled I didn't even think twice. What stood out most was their ability to blend our personal touches with the breathtaking natural beauty of Maui. Our ceremony was at our family church which is not typical of what you think of when you think of Maui wedding and Lori and her team executed it flawless, even starting 2 minutes early! The ceremony was exactly what we had dreamed of--intimate, romantic, and seamless. The cherry on top of Tropical Maui Weddings is Jamie Lawrence. His musicality and performance captured the hearts of our guests. I still am getting texts about how special our cocktail hour and father daughter/mother son dance was. YOU NEED HIM TO PLAY AT YOUR WEDDING. If you're planning a wedding in Maui, I highly recommend Tropical Maui Weddings for their creativity, expertise, and genuine care for making your day unforgettable!

This review is embarrassingly overdue, as we have just celebrated our 3rd anniversary. But I can still say that the service we got from Lori and her team were excellent. Lori has a time tested process for gathering information for all her weddings, and the planning and organization of all aspects leading up to the event were great. There were a million decisions we had to make while planning our wedding, and Lori guided us through this process all the way through- flowers, tables and chairs, music, food, drinks, wardrobe, makeup, etc. etc. And once the day arrived, Lori and team were on-site from dawn to dusk, ensuring that the plan we so carefully prepared was executed flawlessly. Her goal is for the wedding couple to enjoy their day, without having to lift a finger and to be completely stress-free. I think we appreciated that the most (especially after seeing how stressed many of our friends were at their own weddings because they didn't have Lori!) Only after our wedding did we discover from our guests how much work was done behind the scenes- such as a guest breaking a glass on the beach, the wrong type of table being delivered to our site in the morning, lights not having been hung correctly. I may never know the full extent of that work, but I do know that Lori's team took care of it. So to recap- if you're wondering whether to hire Tropical Maui Weddings for your wedding, or even if it's worth hiring a wedding planner at all, I would say yes to both! You will absolutely not regret it.

I wanted to update my review. Initially, I gave a 3-star rating, and the business owner, Kara,…read morenaturally reached out to discuss our concerns and see how she could address them. This seemed fair and normal. However, when we tried to arrange a follow-up meeting, Kara refused to meet with just my husband and me. She insisted on including her entire team in the feedback session. We felt it would be more appropriate and comfortable to provide our feedback directly to her, with the understanding that she could then relay it to her team. During numerous email discussions, Kara made excuses for every issue we raised and essentially blamed us for the shortcomings of our wedding planner. Because of that, I cannot recommend Aloha Wedding Planning Services. Although Veronica, our planner, was lovely and personable, the service we received on our wedding day did not reflect a 5-star experience. Given that we paid $4,000, I expected much higher quality. If the cost had been lower, I can confidently say I would not have been as upset by the small details that didn't go perfectly.

With so many moving parts and details, no wedding is perfect, however, Veronica made the process efficient, organized, and most of all fun ensuring that our wedding day was as close to perfect as possible. For anyone looking to plan their wedding, Veronica was always extremely friendly and helpful with all of our ideas and requests during planning. She was highly experienced and ensured that we didn't miss any important details while also allowing us room to be creative and get involved with the process as much or as little as we wished. Every step of the way Veronica was so knowledgeable and easy going, it really turned what is normally a stressful process into an enjoyable journey and we are so grateful for all her hard work! We definitely highly recommend Your Aloha Wedding Company to any couples looking for a planner in Maui. They are so easy to communicate with, detailed oriented, experienced, well connected with vendors, and of course a absolute pleasure to work with! -Oliver & Angela

I would not recommend this wedding florist to anyone. The entire service contract is in her favor…read moreand she was completely unwilling to negotiate any terms or adjust any wording. We made an attempt to negotiate some of the terms to make them fair for both parties, and she just went off and withdrew our contract, as she knew there's only less than a month left before our wedding. Fortunately, another florist was able to help us out with our last minute inquiry. We are 100% satisfied with our new florist and it came out with a better price and much better value. Super responsive and diligent. This should be a one star but we're giving Teresa another star for not servicing us. We knew it won't be nearly as good simply by communicating with her. Save yourself the hassle and disappointment and choose a different florist for your wedding.

However once we saw Teresa's work via social media, we knew her timeless aesthetic was what we were looking for and asked our wedding planner to connect us right away. Teresa put us at ease from the initial consultation with her extensive knowledge of floral design and endless amount of ideas. What I really appreciate is the fact that Teresa really listened to our ideas and vision, and helped us build on those by offering her expertise. Teresa was completely engaged in the process from start to finish. She was always an e-mail or phone call away, which really speaks volumes when it comes to planning a destination wedding. In the end Teresa executed our vision far beyond our expectations. From the amazing centerpieces, to the stunning floral draped chandeliers, to the individual florals and bouquets for the wedding party, everything was stunning! When we finally had the reveal before the guests arrived, I can't begin to describe the emotions we felt at how beautiful of a job Teresa did. All of our guests, as were we, were completely blown away. When I think of our wedding day today, almost nine months later, I'm not only reminded of the love of that day, but of the stunning and amazing work of Teresa Sena Designs. Thank you Teresa!

We were fortunate enough to plan a trip to Maui before our wedding and she organized all the vendor meetings and schedules during our trip. Cherise's approved/recommended vendor list with description helped us make a comfortable decision with customizing our wedding for our special day. Cherise is extremely organized and detail oriented. We appreciated how much experience she had with our particular venue (Olowalu Plantation House). Given our busy schedules, we loved how hands off with planning you could be with her in the mix. She took care of all the communication needed with vendors. Our meetings with Cherise were spaced out initially, with a progressive increase in meeting frequency as our wedding approached quickly. The day-of wedding timeline was executed perfectly without delay. It was needless to say, a stress-free planning experience and would have no other recommendations for a wedding planner other than Cherise for Maui - whether you are local or you are planning a destination wedding. Attached are some photos of the beautiful table settings that Cherise helped put together, as well as ceremony arch - we just had to provide some ideas on Pinterest and she worked her magic to set everything up that we had envisioned!

We did a destination wedding from Florida and we were able to meet her in person at our venue before we secured it. Leading up to the wedding, Maui had one of the biggest Kona low's the island had ever seen and two days before we redesigned the wedding to bring it inside. She had great ideas on upgrades, checked that the additions were cohesive, and made sure we didn't lose out on much. In addition, on the day of if something wasn't going completely to plan me and my husband had no idea. Her team managed the day of with the highest level of professionalism.

I started planning last august and basically finished planning everything by December. Everything was done via email and phone. Just like any bride I was very excited and nervous that I couldn't go visit the venue or see flowers etc in person. But Deanne talked me through everything!! She was super patient and kind...I was in bridezilla mode almost due to not being able to see things in person but she made it so easy to plan everything virtually. When we celebrate our anniversary we will definitely reach out to Deanne again. Deanne was recommended to me by a coworker who also utilized their services.

At first my husband and I were just going to elope -- but didn't want to deal with the backlash of family members attempting to kill us when we got home. So now we have to get some "plan" together here since we now have guests! Now you would think we looked to Yelp to find one-stop-shopping for our wedding, but we didn't. I picked it based on how good the website was arranged. Yes, that's right ... I basically picked a website that looked *together* and basically looked, well .... pretty. Pretty pictures and cursive writing accompanied with easy page navigation. That's how I roll. Deanne sent us information and we picked our package. There was an a-la-carte menu to have additional things added, like releasing white doves or butterflies. (We decided to opt-out of releasing random insects or birds since we don't know what the repercussions are to the environment, and with our luck they would be hit by a car or sucked into the ocean, and of course we are so morbid ~ our laughter might be met by evil stares from onlookers.) Deanne was awesome! I wanted someone to have it all together for us, and we would simply show up -- and that's how it went down folks. No fuss, no confusion, no problems. If there were any, we didn't know about it. All of our communication was via email and then by phone when we got to the island, and we met her when we arrived in the parking lot of the beach we were getting married on. I only had two requests, the date and time, and I had to have a specific lei. Deanne delivered! We took a shuttle down to the beach, and when the door opened, I felt like I was met with paparazzi. Who's this guy taking pictures? Oh, that's our camera guy? Sweet! Deanne came and gave me a big hug, and I looked over at our minster, I realized he wasn't the one that she said was performing our service. Should I be worried? Nope! This guy was amazing! He did a traditional Hawaiian wedding and even blew the conch shell during our ceremony. Deanne, thank you so much for making our wedding day with friends and family awesome and totally stress free!
