    Our wedding at Olowalu Plantation House
    M W.

    Fay of Aloha Maui Weddings is absolutely, utterly, and impossibly incredible. We first spoke on the phone when I believe she was in transit between one wedding officiation and the next... I remember because I believe she was driving, listening to our ideas, and (as a bona fide Type A, note taking person myself) I remember thinking, "There's no way she's going to remember all this". Lo and behold I was wrong! She remembered our details to a T! I'll start with the details about her, which I will list in bullet form because there are too many: - Well-versed in the industry: all her vendor recommendations were spot on. As true "maximizers" (see Barry Schwartz 'The Paradox of Choice'), we did our own research into each vendor on yelp, wedding blogs, websites, etc, and met with multiple flower people, multiple DJs, multiple everything. She was always right. - Discounts: we got a discount on our luau and she offered (though we didn't end up taking her up on) a discount on a large block of rooms. - Customer service/professionalism (so rare these days)! We always felt like were her most important clients even though she undoubtedly has dozens more, and that is something rare to find. - Accessible: it's great to feel important when we're talking, but also how about responsiveness for the mundane things? Absolutely. The one time we couldn't get a hold of her, she wrote us from Thailand just to let us know she'd be responding in a few days instead of hours. - Personality: she's just a really fun, funny lady! We're both doctors, and so kind of the opposite of a woman who organizes poetry writing groups, but you know it was kind of perfect! - Officiant: she herself officiates a ton of weddings, but we wanted one of our close friends. She helped our friend with some of the technicalities / nuances a layperson wouldn't know. - Patience: remember all those vendor meetings from above? She came to almost all of them while we were on the island. We visited probably 20 different venues. Yes, ridiculous. - Flexible: we are obviously a heavily involved couple, but I believe she'd also work well for a couple who'd want to just show up and have an awesome wedding. - Resourcefulness: so, so many ways! - We wanted a drone to deliver our rings. She helped us find the videography company. - Musicians: she recommended the wonderful musicians for our cellist and harp (fairly standard), but even knew an utterly incredible ukulele player (Derick Sebastian) who is generally way too fancy for a little old wedding (google him), but whom we were able to snag through Fay's knowing him for years. - We found a single random Facebook photo of these tall, dark trellises. She found the one vendor on the island who had them and a comparable trellis from another vendor. - We wanted to meet vendors / try food in person, but only had a few days that would span a weekend. She arranged a jam-packed schedule with over 20 appointments in a four-day span! - We wanted to transport everyone: she helped us arrange a map/timing and companies/shuttles both large and small. - Little things: she knew our table decor would involve white candles and a peacock feather. She happened to be at a Ross and saw some white candles with etched feathers on them and snatched up a bunch to add extra pop to our bridal table. - Apparently the day after our ceremony, she goes around with a metal detector to pick up the remnants from the sparkler send off. This woman is truly incredible, and I cannot imagine pulling off as unforgettable of a day as we had without her.

    Thank you so much Fay for exceeding our expectations for our Maui beach wedding! With a few phone calls and e-mails our small ceremony was put together and was beyond what we had hoped! From the location, flower circle, authentic ceremony and eukele musician/singer it encompassed the aloha spirit. We will never forget that day and have you to thank :)

    Oh my....we started the process almost a year ago and we finally made it happen this past week. We felt so compelled to post a review and we haven't even left yet. Fay Hovey was AWESOME and her team was just the same. I would highly recommend her services to anyone that wants to join together as one. Thank you Fay and keep up the great work. Chris and Jessica Bogedain!

It was helpful during the intake because they ask specific questions to narrow down your search and give you a very easy list of the options for what you are looking for. I do think it would have been a smoother process in the beginning if there was regular communication from the very getgo but it was a little slow as I'm sure they had to prioritize the weddings that were more upcoming. However when it came time closer to our wedding they were definitely very involved in trying to get all details lined up. I had some anxiety with the wedding and whole planning process especially with the weather conditions but there was consistent and constant communication leading up and their advice and suggestions/expertise really helped in making decisions. The day itself was difficult as it was really downpouring right up until the ceremony began but seeing the staff and Cindy and Jessica work so hard for all things to come together was really wonderful and you can tell they really worked hard to make everything come together. Planning a destination is not easy at all and as much of a difficulty it is making decisions, having this team really made it so much easier and you can feel like you can leave it up to them to get everything completed. There were a few hiccups with some items of course that you can expect with all weddings for sure but it was still such an amazing and easy experience that you don't even care about the things that didn't go fully right and just remember the amazing time and the whole wedding that it didn't feel there were any regrets at all. Cindy especially was so good at responses and answering all the nitty gritty that they are such a great team and Jessica really tries to take on the stresses for you so that you're not stressed as the bride. I would recommend if you're looking for a wedding planner as they have a lot encompassing to offer and my wedding turned out absolutely beautiful! Thank you Ido team and Jessica and Cindy especially!!!

The attention to detail, sense of urgency, the care for the bride was all spot on. They really do take the stress out of your special day so you can enjoy the beauty of Hawaii. For us specifically, we had family members coming from multiple places and I caught a fever. Thankfully, the Idowedding team hand held us through the entire process from advising which hotel to stay at and what's popular to eat. Their care allows you to stress less. It did not feel like we were going through a cookie cutter machine but rather they viewed us as a project to succeed on which makes all the difference in customer experience. Five stars from me as they really impressed me with their personal touch on our once in a lifetime day.

Kim was beyond phenomenal with all our wedding planning needs! She held Zoom meetings with us, traveled to our venue to help with our vision for our wedding, was always excellent in communicating with us, extremely organized, and took so much stress off our plate! As crazy as it sounds, our wedding venue actually canceled on us just over 2 weeks before our wedding date after a year of planning! Kim was on it though, and was able to help us plan a new wedding in just two weeks! She scrambled and worked diligently to do everything she could, to help us still move forward with our wedding, keep and support all our local vendors (14 different local vendors), and most importantly, keep our same wedding date. Kim handled all the hard discussions with our vendors with relocating and all the adjustments with our guests, so flawlessly! She always listened to our needs and plans but also offered suggestions and advice that we did not think of or considered.  She has many contacts throughout the island and is very trustworthy.  She shared documents, kept us on track with planning, and she was an absolute life saver the day of the wedding.  Her colleague, Nathan, came through in the clutch for us as well on our wedding day with lots of extra setup and arrangements that we added last minute.   They made everything easy for us and worry-free even after the wedding when we were exhausted! We loved our special day! With much thanks to Kim & Nathan, they also delivered "the best wedding ever" according to all of our guests!! They are still texting us weeks later! We could not have made this happen without Kim and Nathan!!! BIG & MANY Mahalos to Kim and Nathan for guiding us on our wedding journey and helping bring our beautiful wedding to life despite so many obstacles!

We visited with many Maui-based Wedding planners and Sandra shined so bright, she was the obvious choice for us! Early in our planning, we had our chosen venue double their prices that was more than we could afford. Sandra helped us find an equally beautiful venue that fell within our price range! Planning a destination wedding can be really difficult but Sandra happily accommodated us with countless 1:1 phone calls where we could plan out every detail! We also had an opportunity to visit Maui for on a wedding planning trip! During our visit, Sandra made sure we could meet with all of our vendors face to face. We knew she was connected with the best of vendors but after that trip, we were so confined in all of our selections and it was abundantly clear how respected Sandra was on the island! On our wedding day, Sandra's team created such a beautiful space! Every detail of the wedding went seamlessly and according to plan! She, along with Joanna, we're the perfect wedding day coordinators. In addition to that great duo, Sandra also provided us with a day-of wedding specialist, Courtney! Courtney was an absolute gem! She was prompt, prepared, and calm! She made our day go so smoothly and we always felt very taken care of whenever she was around! Kudos to Sandra and her whole team of wedding warriors! We couldn't imagine a better team for the most special day of our lives!!! Thank you!!
