Marie is the best!!…read more From start to finish Marie was always so organized and effectively communicated with me through the whole wedding planning process. Another positive to note is that Legacy Events/Marie is in contact with some of the best vendors Kauai has to offer. I did my research on some of the vendors I was interested in before contacting Marie and her list of vendors she has worked with often had all of the vendors that I had already in mind so booking with them through Marie made it so much easier. If you are looking for a planner, look no further! Legacy Events is without a doubt the best!

We found Marie and her team through a venue recommendation, and from our very first call, we knew we were in the best hands. Planning a destination wedding in just six months felt daunting--especially from the mainland--but Marie made it all feel doable (and even fun!). She was incredibly organized, responsive, and proactive from day one. Within hours of our first conversation, she was checking vendor availability and getting the ball rolling. She answered every question quickly, gave honest and thoughtful advice, and truly helped us stay grounded in our vision and budget. Marie only works with top-tier vendors--every person she recommended, from catering to florals to lighting, delivered above and beyond. And on the day of the wedding, she and her team handled every detail so we could be fully present and soak it all in. There were so many moments where Marie went above and beyond. At one point, when I had a small wardrobe mishap, she pulled out a sewing kit and helped fix it without missing a beat--just one example of how calm, prepared, and thoughtful she is. If you're planning a wedding in Kauai and want someone who will bring professionalism, creativity, and genuine care to the process, look no further than LEK Events. We're forever grateful for Marie and her team.

I was looking for a wedding planner that would be able to see my vision and help me make it happen…read more I was looking for Partial/Day of Coordination. I called several wedding planners. A couple planners didn't seem interested once we spoke and I mentioned Partial/Day of Coordination. I had narrowed it down to two planners. After speaking to Raimey and receiving her email with her quote, I knew she was the one. The photos she included in her presentation hit the nail on the head. A week leading up to the wedding was very stressful. Hurricane Lane was happening, but I knew we were okay since we had a Plan B. Due to the weather and flooding that was going on, unforseenable events happened. Raimey could have cancelled and we would totally understand, but she was there for us and a consummate professional. Because the weather was unpredictable, we decided to go with Plan B and have our ceremony on the lanai. She took my vision and made it a reality! Everything was beautiful and intimate. Mahalo Raimey!!

Alii Kauai Weddings did the best job helping me plan my dream elopement from Texas. I had never been to Kauai or even on a tropical vacation anywhere and they were always available to answer my questions and helped me plan everything out exactly like I wanted. The moment that I realized I had definitely made the right decision hiring them was when our flight got delayed causing us to miss our connecting flight and we got stuck in Los Angeles the night before our wedding! It was so stressful and I don't know what I would have done without Jessica. I called her and explained what happened and that we would not be able to get a flight until the next day ( Sunday, our planned wedding day). She made a miracle happen and was able to move our wedding from Sunday to Monday: flowers, cake, videographer, photographer, officiant, wedding coordinator and all! I couldn't believe it and was so grateful to not have to go from the airport straight to our wedding! The vendors that she works with were exceptional. The flowers were better than I could have imagined. The cake was delicious. Our pictures and video were perfect. Our officiant was wonderful. The coordinator onsite was helpful and everything ran very smoothly. I couldn't recommend this company more.

Really OUTRAGEOUS QUOTES. I seriously thought we weren't going to pull it off. And once again Yelp came to the rescue. I came across Maile Weddings while doing a Yelp search for photographers. And then the light-bulb went on and I thought "duh Mel why aren't you looking for a wedding planner?" So I called and spoke to Kaye. She was so helpful, resourceful, and affordable. I did contact 2 other wedding planners as well as 2 event planners from Kauai resorts. But nobody made me feel as at ease as Kaye did. And her photos stood out from the others so I chose to go with her. She always responded promptly to my emails and phone calls. She is so tied into the community that she had all the contact needed to pull off the wedding we envisioned. Once we arrived on the Island, Kaye came to meet us to go over the details. Again putting me at ease. On the day of the wedding, there was a breakdown on my part on where I was going to put on my dress and Kaye didn't skip a beat and found a place for me to change and helped me get into my dress. When we arrived at Tunnels Beach, everything went perfectly. My wedding was truly perfect! She listened to every one of my requests and no detail was missed. The officiant (Patrick) that she chose for us was amazing. His ceremony was exactly what we wanted. The flowers were perfect, The location was perfect. The timing for sunset was perfect.

We had to leave Kauai due to the COVID-19 pandemic on the day we arrived stay one more night in Oahu and then fly back. Jessica was very understanding and she worked with us as our timeframe is changed around. It also happened to be one of the rainiest weeks of the year. So finding a spot that had the right lighting for our photos was difficult and Jessica offered to meet us on a Sunday and take pictures outside of our ceremony day which we very very much appreciated. They gave us a lot of options were added photos and were very welcoming towards our family and even took some family photos which we will treasure forever. For her ceremony she did a traditional ring blessing which I would very much recommend. She was so kind and warm I would urge you to reach out to her if you're even considering an elopement inquiry or a small wedding as we did. We had six people and Jessica met us at our Airbnb but she also has a property that you can elect to use or meet at one of the local beaches which she knows inside and out.

When my wife and I decided to do a destination wedding in Hawaii, we had no clue where to start. I started out researching photographers and ministers, when I contacted Aloha Ever After and spoke with Timory, I just knew this was the right company and the right people to make our wedding the best it could be. We set our wedding date for Dec.9,2018. (I know, I unintentionally procrastinated with my review.) But our experience was phenomenal and the memory stays with us every day. Timory did an incredible job helping us with information to get the marriage license, flowers, suggested accommodations in the area and even provided great options for the ceremony. after seeing Shipwrecks Beach, we chose that as the place to start our new life. We arranged to have her partner/Husband Joel perform the ceremony and Timory on photography. They were both awesome to work with, in tune with our wishes and exceptional with assisting us the whole way. The ceremony was beautiful, we did a sand ceremony as well and all of the photos were absolutely breathtaking! One of my outstanding memories during the ceremony was Timory asking us to pause briefly to look into the ocean, there was a Manta Ray lingering just off the beach, in front of our location, she said that was a rare occurance at that beach, in fact, she said she hadn't seen that in 20 years of performing weddings at that beach, the locals at the Tidepools restaurant all concurred and didn't believe it until I showed them the photo. we chalked it up as the spirit of our lost loved ones joining our special moment. that was super cool to experience. I truly can't say enough about Aloha Ever After, The prices were more than reasonable, the help with planning was priceless, the team of Timory and Joel and the overall experience is something I'll never forget. We've returned once to revisit for our anniversary and to reflect on the memories. We hope to go again someday to renew our vows and you know my first call will be to Aloha Ever After! Thank You for a job well done!

We really want to highlight her professionalism and care - she asked us about how we met, our favorite songs, what we love about each other, and created a fully personalized ceremony script just for us.

She actively helped us with finding the location, and together we ended up choosing what is probably the best spot with a view of Hanalei Bay. Absolutely stunning. We started communicating about two months before the ceremony, and she walked me through every single step of what was needed to get married in Hawaii (we're based in California). She also shared contacts for a marriage agent, who I later worked with. Frieda arrived perfectly on time, and right after the ceremony on January 21, 2026, she submitted all the paperwork.
