Ernest officiated our wedding and made our ceremony so special…read more When the event ended, we had SO many wedding guests ask me how we found our officiant because they were impressed and entranced by him - and I agree! We were very, very lucky to have him as our officiant. I was a little worried that family might roll their eyes at a Hawaiian ceremony. But Ernest's presence has a way of demanding respect. He explained the importance of Hawaiian traditions and shared his love of the Island. He had us face our wedding guests (instead of having our backs to them) and encouraged our loved ones to be involved in the ceremony with aloha and laughs. It was truly amazing. Ernest was also open to a few requests we had about the ceremony and vows. He put all of my worries to rest. I cannot recommend Ernest enough!

So of course, I didn't hesitate to fly over and fulfill my duties as the best man, maid of honor, flower girl, photographer, videographer, and reception planner! Ernest said he'd meet them at the DT Flemings beach. I went to look on one side, they went to look on the other. Bride: As I was looking around the beach, I spotted him at the right and it's as if he appeared out of the mist since the spray from the waves was like a cloud! She knew she had chosen the right person to perform the ceremony! Ernest was great! Explained a lot of how he infuses Hawaiian tradition and culture into each ceremony! I loved the conch shell call! He also sang as they danced the first dance on the beach! I was so blessed to be a part of this beautiful ceremony! When they were done, I started to take photos of the happy couple with the waves in the background. And just as mysteriously as he appeared, he disappeared into the foilage without us seeing. Bride: This has been a magical day! And I agree!

With a bit of regret not having done our vow renewal "formally" 5 years ago (FIL passed a few months later suddenly), we decided to do it for 15 years with our family being less grandpa but with a new addition, our 3 yo. Michael and his assistant were super friendly and easy to work with. He was helpful with restaurant recommendations around our site. We stayed in the Kaanapali area and most wedding/vow renewal services advertised were on the Kīhei side which would've taken 40+ minutes depending on traffic to get to and with 2 young kids, the drive back wouldn't have been fun (not to mention bedtime). Maui wedding adventures was able to meet us in Kapalua (one of our fave dive sites too). We dined at Merriman's and the food was delicious, as was the view. After dinner it was a short walk to the beach where we met Michael. We were able to choose from a list of musicians that could play while we had our ceremony. Marvin's music is just what we were looking for. He had many song choices with many of them being our favorites. His music really completed our ceremony. Michael's responses were prompt and he kept in contact by sending emails before we embarked on our trip to Maui and even sent a message the day we landed to welcome us! He also sent us messages on the day of to let us know what to look for. We got a sneak peek to our photos the next day and as he promised, the link to all the photos within 10 days.

No better beaches than Hawaii, Maui at that ;) Mr. Michael Fish made planning our ceremony extremely easy all the way from California. He was ALWAYS very receptive and super knowledgeable. Believe me, I did my research and he checked off all my needs and now that our wedding is over he deserves all the praise. You will not be disappointed with his services. In addition, the photos I received with my package were phenomenal.

I knew it was going to be beautiful, but they really made it so much better than I expected. Roger and his wife Bobbie are so sweet, talented and professional. The cost was very affordable.

We did it at sunset at one of the most beautiful beaches. You will not be disappointed. The photos were sent to me within an hour, unedited.

Me and my partner decide we would get eloped over there. We researched alot of companies that done wedding packages. YOU ME MAUI was the only company that stood out to us, now i know why!! We only gave them five days to organise everything, OMG did they impress us and went above and beyond. From location, photographer, organising wedding license, makeup, celebrant, wedding cake and flowers. Every detail was perfect and they made it a day we will never forget. YOU ME MAUI was affordable, they made us feel important, they envision our perfect day, we didn't have to lift a finger and could enjoy our holiday. We have no regrets. We are extremely lucky that we found them. xx

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.

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!

Theresa met us on Tuesday to show us the location of our wedding cermony. It was beautiful! Wednesday was the big day! We did not have to worry about anything!
