    Magic Island beach
    Aysha G.

    February 14,2021 my husband and I renewed our 10th year wedding vows in Honolulu Hawaiii It was the best experience in our lives. Thank you so much for make us feel so welcome.

    We were visiting Oahu for our anniversary. Originally we wanted to do a vow renewal offered by the hotel we were staying at. We found out the hotel changed the date and would not work with our schedule. I found Nani and contacted her immediately. She was very quick to help me. She was very sweet, professional and accommodating. She made us feel very special and important. It was a beautiful ceremony and she took lovely photographs of us. My husband said it was better than our original wedding ceremony. We felt like the only ones on the island. We never felt rushed. We are so happy we found Nani. I would highly recommend!!!

    This was my first time in Hawaii and searching for the options for vow renewal was tough. I was drawn to their website because all the information and prices were listed making the planning much easier. When I spoke to Nani for the first time on the phone, I felt her willingness to help me and her kindness through the phone. I know immediately that I called the right place. Nani made all the planning and preparation super easy on my end. We were always on the same page, and she always responded in a timely manner to my emails or phone calls. When my family and friends got off the limo the day of the vow renewal, her husband was right there to greet us at the beach. Nani came shortly after with the flower crown which looked phenomenal. She incorporated my children with her Hawaiian influence, and I couldn't have asked for a better ceremony because of that. The photographer Five-O Photo was just as great as Nani. He took his time to capture the beautiful moments of my family and friends. It is truly a treasure we can cherish for a lifetime. They have made this an unforgettable, hassle free, beautifully intimate experience that exceeded all my expectations. I will be booking with Nani for my 20th year vow renewal in the future.

    Aloha Nani, Thank you for being so sweet to us! We really loved how patient, and understanding you were with us. With our youngest daughter being special needs and non mobile you helped us find the perfect location to wheel her in towards the beach. Everything went smoothly the flowers were absolutely beautiful everything came out so stunning! The photographer did a magnificent job! He was also so kind and sweet to us! Once again thank you for giving us the best 10 years of marriage vow renewal ceremony ever!

    A great and emotional moment. Many thanks to Nani who planned each detail to perfection. We had a long trip from home Paris France to Hawaii for this special event and everything was just perfect. You're definitely in our hearts. Aloha!

    Nani was amazing from start to finish! It was pouring down rain when we arrived - but she gracefully allowed us to wait out the storm. She walked us through every step of our (vow renewal) ceremony. The photographer and videographer were amazing too! We highly recommend Hawaiiweddings.net if you are looking for a stress free experience! Thank you Nani and Team! Our day was perfection!

    Her sweet little son walked her down the aisle and gave the beautiful bride away.

    My son and fiancée wanted to get married in Hawaii. They were ok with a courthouse wedding, but I wanted something more memorable. With less than three weeks to plan a wedding I was so fortunate to find Nani. Their website is very clear and gives you a choice of different packages to fit every budget and offers everything you could possibly need to create your special day. The couple's flight from Denmark was interrupted by an airline strike in Germany. Instead of arriving with a week to prepare, they arrived with just enough time to get the license, buy their wedding attire and pick out wedding rings. With Nani's expertise and guidance we were able to plan a beautiful wedding where they could exchange vows in the presence of family. I'm a nervous Nelly and a control freak, but Nani was flexible and she was able to create a beautiful traditional religious ceremony blended with a casual love theme while also incorporating our Filipino traditions. The location was peaceful and intimate and Nani took care of all the details. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day for my son and my new daughter. Mahalo to Nani and her team - their services are exceptional and incomparable.

    A beautiful day at Waimananalo Bay! End of May, 2019!

    My husband and I were traveling to Oahu to enjoy a vacation, as well as celebrate our 20th Wedding Anniversary. About 2 weeks before our trip, I decided to make contact with Nani at Hawaii Weddings. I liked her website, and how it had a price list, with no hidden costs. We did play phone tag a few times, but, I finally spoke to her on the telephone about what we were looking for. I was very interested in professional photos, so Nani suggested the "Windward" Special package. This was the way to go! Not only did we have a very lovely vow exchange, Marty from "Five-O" Photography, shot so many beautiful photographs of us, family, and the beautiful Waimanalo Bay! Everything from precise directions, to the Haku & Lei I ordered from them, was just perfect. I would highly recommend Hawaii Weddings.net! Mahalo again to both Nani and Marty!

    We found Nani's website while searching online for an officiant for our Hawaiian Wedding and we are quite happy that we booked with her. You must understand I have so many good things to say I don't even know where to start. Nani was very accommodating and agreed to come to our side of the Island despite the fact that it is at least one hour drive from Waikiki during peak hours. Our ceremony was the most romantic ceremony I have ever attended and I am not just saying that because it was my own. Nani made sure to ask if we wanted a romantic or religious ceremony. She even offered to have a "mixed" ceremony and it ended up turning out perfect. It was so emotional both groom and bride were in tears (I know, how cheesy but it was lovely), she had such kind words and made us feel so in love with each other. I also have to mention that Nani endured my twenty thousand questions and answered them all patiently (I know, as if I was the only bride in the world) and when we found out our chosen venue had no beach access, she immediately brainstormed and found a new location within minutes, everything was as if there was never a hiccup. Nani was also very kind and hand delivered our pictures to our hotel (again, an hour drive from Waikiki) so we could have them before we left the Island. Overall she went out of her way to give us great service. We are so satisfied with everything that we have promised to come back in five years for a vow renewal ceremony also perfomed by Nani, hoping she will be available then.

    Hawaii Weddings packages are very affordable and perfect for small weddings. Nani is the best! She made everything happen in less than a week. Our Makaha Beach Wedding was absolutely perfect!

    Sorry this is so late, but wanted to share my amazing wedding experience with Nani on Ewa Beach on 8/5/18! The ceremony was flawless and she made it so incredibly beautiful and meaningful for me and my new husband and for our entire ohana! Mahalo for all you did for our special day!

    Nani is wonderful!! Did an amazing job including all of our family in the ceremony. She really cares about the whole family. The location she helped us pick was phenomenal. Her husband took amazing photos.

Front start to finish, it was the most amazing experience. The coordination was flawless and the service was top notch. We didn't get to meet our officiant Ellsworth until the day. The photographer and videographer made us feel so comfortable! The flowers were fresh and made beautifully. The hula dancer was gorgeous and the musician was wonderful. My hair and make up artist understood the assignment and they both made me look flawless! Our photographer Carson took over 200 photos and made us feel so special! Our highlight video and ceremony video were awesome. I recommend this company to anyone who wants to get married in Hawaii as they have the wedding planning down to a science. They have something in everyone's budget I loved that they took away the hassle of booking everything separately especially since we didn't live there! Thanks everyone!

I chose the Kalani Ilima Package because I wanted the privacy of Nalo Gardens, along with hair and makeup services, plus the photography and videography package--and it was absolutely worth it. From the very beginning, communication was seamless. The team answered every question I had and provided a detailed timeline so I always knew what to expect, which made the planning process completely stress-free. I also want to give a special thank you to all of the office staff, who did an excellent job coordinating all of the details behind the scenes. Their organization and communication made the entire process effortless. On our wedding day, Izumi did my hair and makeup, and it turned out exactly how I envisioned it. She was incredibly talented, kind, and made me feel so comfortable. Wendy, our on-site coordinator, did a fantastic job directing our guests and making sure everything ran smoothly. Our officiant, Kawena, performed a beautiful and heartfelt ceremony that made the moment even more special. The highlight for us was our photographer, Piloni, and our videographer, Ryan. Piloni was amazing at guiding us through poses and knew exactly how to capture the best shots. We are beyond happy with the photos we received, and we can't wait to cherish them for years to come. Everything came together perfectly, and our wedding day was absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend Weddings of Hawaii to anyone looking for a stress-free, well-organized, and unforgettable wedding experience!

After speaking with Cheri, the owner, she invited us to go down to their property and take a look for ourselves before booking. We totally winged it and went. The property is full of luscious tropical plants, amazing photo ops, and overall absolutely beautiful! It felt like we were on another island. Cheri shared she and her husband,Scott planted all of the plants and maintained the grounds for many years. So cool! Going through the process of planning (yes even for an intimate ceremony) can be stressful. Through out the process, Cheri was easy to get a hold of and so helpful during this crazy time. Our wedding ceremony was able to go as planned and we didn't have to worry about anything. Cheri worked with our vendors and was even able to do a last minute set up for cake cutting. Thank you to Cheri for everything! We are truly grateful that we were able to have our Covid wedding ceremony!

Throughout the planning process, Mackenzie and Jamie kept everything organized with great communication and helped bring our vision to life beautifully. Anytime we had questions or needed help with finding a vendor, the entire ACB team was very knowledgeable and helpful in finding us what we were looking for. When we were introduced to Sammy, our Lead Coordinator, we knew we were in amazing hands. She was absolutely incredible and wouldn't have wanted anyone but her with us on our day.

She's warm, energetic, and genuinely passionate about what she does--without ever feeling overwhelming or intrusive.

She was incredibly responsive, handled vendor communications seamlessly, and managed last-minute updates with ease. Throughout the entire process, I felt completely taken care of and confident that she would bring our vision to life. What really stood out was her attention to detail and proactive approach. She suggested things we hadn't even considered (like renting microphones), but was never pushy and always respected our decisions. Anytime I had a concern, she had either already handled it or immediately jumped into action--like when I worried about muddy transportation on our rainy wedding day, and she had already coordinated with the vendor. Despite the pouring rain, Gentry showed up with the most positive energy and made everything feel effortless. She truly made our dream wedding possible, and I can't imagine doing it without her.

From day one, her organization and unmatched attention to detail put us completely at ease. Louise is the perfect blend of professional, intentional, warm, and reassuring--everything you could ever hope for in a wedding planner. Louise not only guided us through a smooth, stress-free planning process with easy, consistent communication, but she also created the most incredible florals and overall wedding design. Our floral arrangements were absolutely breathtaking--regal, romantic, and so magical that it truly felt like stepping into a fairytale. She did an exceptional job using her creativity to showcase our personal style in every detail, and her design recommendations fit our personalities, and our vision so perfectly. She brought everything together so cohesively that the entire day felt beautifully curated and deeply personal. When we had to unexpectedly change venues just a couple of months before the wedding, Louise handled the transition with such calm confidence, and care that we weren't even worried. From the start we already knew we were in the best hands, and Louise proved it once again by making the transition to a new venue totally seamless and helping us secure new vendors who were a perfect fit for our new space. What could have been a stressful setback ended up creating an even better outcome than we ever could have imagined. And on the wedding day itself? If there were any hiccups, we had no idea--because Louise and the LLW team had planned, executed, and managed everything so flawlessly behind the scenes. All we felt was pure joy and excitement. Louise really brought our dream wedding to life more beautifully than we ever could have envisioned. We are forever grateful to Louise and wholeheartedly recommend Love Letter Weddings to anyone wanting a seamless, stunning, and heartfelt planning experience. Louise is truly the BEST of the best.

We chose the "maid of honor for hire" package, and let me tell you: WORTH EVERY PENNY! We booked LLW in January 2024 for our June 2025 wedding, and from day one, Louise led the way. Our initial meeting was incredibly thorough, with a planning timeline and actionable next steps. From there, we met over Zoom throughout the year and collaborated asynchronously in between. What truly surprised us was how personally involved Louise remained. As LLW's owner, we assumed Louise might eventually pass things off--but nope. She joined every Zoom meeting, answered every email, and showed up in ways we didn't expect but fully appreciated. The "maid of honor for hire" package places design decisions in the couple's hands which can feel daunting, but we never felt alone. Our vision shifted dozens of times. We started with white and green florals, a neutral palette, and no wedding party. But thanks to LLW's encouragement and calm expertise, we embraced a totally different vibe: multicolored pastel florals, 20 mix-and-match-clad wedding party members, and a deeply personal celebration. I honestly never imagined arriving at the wedding we had--and I'm so glad we did. We also hired LLW for our florals, which were beyond anything we could've dreamed. Pinterest didn't quite capture our taste, so we pieced together inspiration boards--and Louise and her team translated it flawlessly. They gave us mockups for every arrangement, which eased our nerves, and the final result was pure magic. We were anxious about leaning into color, but LLW reassured us every step of the way. The florals felt like art. Through every change in mood board, guest list, and timeline, LLW never made us feel like we were "too much." Instead, they embraced our uncertainty, helped us find clarity, and always made space for our evolving vision. Let's be real though--the hardest part about planning a wedding isn't actually the planning. It's the rough emotional terrain and managing insecurities. It's wanting everything to be perfect while trying to make space for everyone's needs. What we appreciated most was Louise's unwavering support through it all. Over the 1.5 years of working together, she helped us navigate countless decisions with empathy, clarity, and kindness. She even weighed in on outfit choices multiple times--and always with patience. No matter how scattered we felt, we left every meeting feeling calmer, grounded, and reassured. And on the big day? LLW was everywhere and everything. Louise arrived at our hotel early to drop off flowers for detail shots, took extra items to the venue, and checked in with our contacts to keep everything humming. When we saw rain in Waikiki and texted her in a panic, she replied immediately: "Don't worry, it's perfect at Paliku Gardens." And it was. At the venue, Louise welcomed us with warmth. Kayla helped me into my dress, styled my veil, bustled my dress with care, and adjusted every detail throughout the day for photos. Louise even styled florals into my hair when our stylist forgot--and she nailed it. Even with 10 bridesmaids, I never had to ask anyone for help because LLW handled it all. The flow of the event felt effortless. Even though we made many of the design decisions in the wedding, LLW elevated everything with thoughtful styling touches, extra florals beyond our contract, and meaningful details--like busting out our flower girl's bubble gun for our first dance to make it look extra magical. At the end of the night, Louise had our family member's car packed with everything we needed. She handed out vendor tips. A team member passed out spam musubis and waters to guests boarding the shuttle. It was seamless. We went straight to our karaoke afterparty without a single concern in mind. So if you want a wedding that feels authentically yours, LLW is the team. They don't replicate Pinterest trends--they listen and build a celebration that reflects you. We had so many friends tell us it was the most beautiful and breathtaking wedding they'd ever attended--that it felt like *us* in every detail, and that it was an unforgettable experience for everyone we love. Louise, Kayla, and the entire LLW team--thank you for everything. We know we weren't the chillest clients, but you helped us learn about ourselves, grow closer, and close one life chapter with the party of a lifetime. We'll carry your kindness and talent with us forever. Honestly, we're dying to see Louise's own wedding one day--we bet it'll be the most extraordinary one yet!

Amazing individuals involved: We worked with Tamara, Morgan, and Kat. Tamara ended up being on maternity leave (CONGRATS TO HER!!) and we worked mostly with Morgan as she helped continued getting us ready and settled for the big day. We met Kat on rehearsal day and she helped us and the wedding crew know what to do and what will happen on the big day. And Kat was there with Morgan the day of to help run the show. Most of our communication was from emails. No texting. And phone appointments. Heads up: a wedding happens almost everyday here at Haiku Gardens so getting an immediate reply via emails and phone calls are not always guaranteed. So ADVICE - set those phone appointments! VERY HELPFUL to do! Haiku Gardens have many different wedding packages to choose from. They will layout the pricing for you of each package. My husband and I did an "a la carte" instead. Tamara and Morgan were on task and organized with the pricing of everything and anything added or subtracted. As far as vendors go, we definitely let them choose which ones to use (I believe the vendors they use are ones they mostly use in their wedding ceremonies) and all vendors were GREAT! We had no issues with them at all. I had to ask Morgan a few times who were the vendors so I can look them up online on my free time and follow them on IG and FB. Our reception was at Haleiwa Jose's which is up the little hill and very close by. They provide a golf cart to pick up and drop off guests and wedding crew from the ceremony site to the reception site. Tamara and Morgan showed pricing of menu choices. We chose the buffet option and added a roasted pig station. Per our guests, they loved everything and said all food choices were delicious! Nothing was dry or too salty. PERFECT! They even enjoyed the bar. Reception Space used was great. Just seeing the amazing trees, mountains, sky...was a perfect view. We had a small group - 53 guests - but Haiku Gardens can definitely have more than 100. Haiku Gardens....sigh...the scenery...BEAUTIFUL and PEACEFUL. With of course a couple sounds from the roosters, which we didn't mind. We're Filipino and we get that in the Philippines so we're used to it hehe. It was hot that day. LOL. During the ceremony, all of us were sweating. Good thing, our wedding favors were fans for the guests to use. But even though it was hot, everyone enjoyed and the Aloha spirit was definitely present. The floral decor was just how I wanted it. They turned out so beautifully. Wedding decor, which were from me, were arranged as asked. Morgan even let me borrow a couple of easels for the reception :) Haiku Garden's ceremonies are "DAY weddings," so just know you have the venue with reception (at Haleiwa Joe's) from 10am-2:30pm. Which was fine. My husband and I were looking for something not too long or during most of the day (we already got married at a city hall in San Francisco a year ago). It was definitely convenient for us. DJ and Emcee were perfect. We really loved our Emcee. She definitely helped reception activities go by within time range without the rush or push of getting things done. The only thing that did not happen (which we assumed because of time) is our money dance. L'Amour Photography & Video - They are amazing! Just having them on our special day was fun and they helped eased any nerves. Still waiting for the rest of the photos, but the videos they captured - wonderful! All in all, we are glad we found Haiku Gardens and Tamara and Morgan. Everything went smoothly before and during the big day. I did not feel stressed as I expected to be hehe. Views were amazing especially if you are not wanting a beach wedding. Our guests cannot stop talking about the ceremony and the food! And my husband and I love reliving and remembering the small details that happened on our big day. Mahalo Haiku Gardens for everything!!

    Fred + Kate Events - The best of the best! Thank you again Tessa, Henry, Lauren, and Midori!

    We were very lucky to have F&K facilitate our wedding. Tessa and her team are very well organized,…read moreand I like how straight forward Tessa is. She does not jump around the bush, she will tell you her opinions. The entire team at F&K are very responsive at keeping you informed. The day of our wedding was very smooth sailing. I love the details that Henry and Midori pay close attention to. Tessa's assistant, Ashley, who I met the day of my wedding was exceptional. She was very calm, extremely helpful, organized, and such a sweetheart. I wish I had met Ashley sooner during the planning phase because she is someone that could be your friend! Our evening was so fun, and we are so grateful that F&K could be a part of our day.

    We rarely post reviews--unless something is truly awful (buyer beware) or absolutely exceptional…read more In the case of Fred and Kate Events, our experience was nothing short of exceptional--and that's putting it mildly. From start to finish, Tessa and her team made our wedding unforgettable. It's been seven months since our big day (February 23, 2025), and my wife, myself, our friends, and family still talk about it constantly. We laughed, cried, ate, drank, danced, socialized, and snapped countless photos. Most importantly, we were able to relax and truly enjoy ourselves. Fred and Kate Events had everything under control. The only thing we had to focus on was getting married--which is exactly how it should be. Tessa is phenomenal, and her staff is top-tier: professional, attentive, and kind. If you try to step in, they'll gently remind you to let them handle it--and trust me, you'll be glad you did. We can't thank them enough for managing every detail so we could stay present in the moment. That gift alone was priceless.
