My new husband and I recently went to Hawaii to get married and had a ceremony that you might only…read moreread about in a story book. We used Intimate Hawaiian Nuptials and happily recommend them to anyone considering getting married in Hawaii. I found them online and spoke with Reverend Janette by phone before our cruise from San Diego and she was super nice. We wanted a private event and wanted a custom adventure package which she put together for us. She had a lot of patience and answered all of my questions. She let us ship out some rare beers to her in advance for our toast because we preferred beer over champagne. She picked us up at the ship, took us to get our license, and took us to a private waterfall for our ceremony. She also prepared in advance a 4 course Hawaiian meal for us to have our very own private reception which included a beautiful wedding cake. Her package also included a photographer and we loved our photos. It is a memory that we will cherish forever. We had so much fun that we plan on using them again next year when we return to renew our vows. Thank you Reverand Janette for going out of your way to make our event special!

Becky made my special day the VERY BEST that I could've hoped for! I was very nervous and I pretty…read moremuch waited until the last minute to handle everything. She literally soothed my frazzled nerves and provided my fiancé and me' with everything we needed before we even arrived, and once we arrived onto the Island she ensured everything was streamlined and in order. She didn't miss a beat!! She had all of the resources needed -- from an AWESOME makeup artist (Kassie), photographer (Hannah), to where to go for final marriage licensing signing. She even files your license for you!! Once our special day arrived, her ceremony literally brought tears to my eyes. It was just so beautiful... words cannot express... From the serene ocean ritual, her loving and warm words during the ceremony that were genuinely from the heart made my wedding day so memorable and filled with love. As nervous and unorganized as I was, Becky made my day PERFECT!!! I can't thank her and her awesome husband, Matt, enough!!! Becky was a Godsend!! She's the BEST at what she does, hand down!!! Aloha!!

The best. Above and beyond feels too trite to describe how Cheryl handled our ceremony, but above…read moreand beyond is how she operated in every possible way and our day was meaningful and poignant and we could not have imagined it better. On our first conversation, Cheryl said to me "Let me handle all the stress, you just get to Hawaii." I didn't have to worry about a thing; it was one of the easiest partnerships I've ever had with someone I'm working with to plan something. Cheryl went out of her way to accommodate every detail and request we asked for, from having our ukulele player learn our song (They Love Each Other by The Grateful Dead) on a weeks notice, to exploring every single option available to try and find a same-sex cake topper on Hawaii at the very last minute. When my mother wanted to be a sleuth to try and figure out our hotels, etc so she could do something, I put her in touch with Cheryl thinking she'd help her arrange dinner or a spa day at our hotel. Little did I know that Cheryl was talking to my mother and my mother-in-law almost daily, accommodating their requests and in the end keeping the big secret that our mothers paid for the entire day, photographer and wedding dinner. But even more special, Cheryl worked closely with them to give them the opportunity to put their small touches on our ceremony. Cheryl revealed the surprise after the ceremony and I can't tell you how special that was for us. Cheryl made it possible for our mothers to be part of our elopement and I can't thank her enough. Incidentally, my mother shared with me the pages and pages (.....and pages!) of emails she and my MIL exchanged with Cheryl. Even from 5,000 miles away, Cheryl's warmth and kindness touched our mothers and they will be forever friends. Our ceremony was intimate and and so well done. Her service was spot on for us as a couple, and Cheryl cried the whole time which made it feel like we were married by an old friend. Cheryl is everything you want for your Hawai'i elopement. She will forever hold an incredibly special place in our hearts and I couldn't ask for a kinder soul to remember as part of our day. Cheryl exudes love, fun and the spirit of aloha, and any couple who has her at the helm for their wedding is extremely blessed.

She truly took her time in getting to know us, our family and how we came to meet. She truly took her time in building a relationship with us. You can tell she loves people, loves love and her job. She put so much love and care into our day. I am not just saying she's the best because of how she married us. She truly is the best person in general. She invited us to her home, she treated us like family and her and her husband pas are both just all around kind and loving souls. She even went out of her way to help us with some local places to do , eat and see. Not only all that but she was down for an adventure elopement with us all the way down to the bottom of Waipi'o valley beach at sunrise. She was a trooper and one of the best friends/person to have married us. Thank you so much Cherly for your love and kindness

We connected immediately on the phone and via email. She responded to emails right away and was able to suggest alternate locations when the weather prevented us from wedding on our first choice beach. The day of the wedding of course emotions were running high but she did an amazing job of calming them and performed a beautiful Hawaiian chant at our ceremony. She was extremely patient and loved all the props that I brought to make our photos unique. She was able to capture the love in our hearts and provide us with pictures we will cherish all our lives. Finally, the photos were ALL incredible. I was fully prepared to alter them as needed as her rates were so reasonable I assumed we would receive rough images. That was NOT THE CASE. Her photos were gorgeous and undoubtedly she did touch up a few. If not I want her to follow me around everyday. I cannot say enough good things about her pictures and professionalism. I wish I lived on the Big Island so I could use her more and trust me when I return I will look her up. With the warmest Aloha thank you so much for making our wedding day perfect!

Working with Rachael and The Chapter of Love was hands down the best decision I made as a bride!…read moreFrom start to finish, Rachael was incredibly thorough and attentive. She took the time to really get to know me, understand my vision, and made thoughtful vendor suggestions that matched my style perfectly. I was so overwhelmed at the beginning and honestly didn't even know where to start, but Rachael immediately made me feel at ease with the whole planning process. The venue and vendor guides she provided were incredibly helpful and gave me a clear idea of what was available, which helped everything come together more easily. Throughout the planning process, Rachael was always available to answer my (many!) questions. Her experience and calm demeanor made everything so much easier and truly gave me peace of mind. We also hired her for Day of Coordination and if you're on the fence about that, let me just say: DO IT! You will not regret it. Because of Rachael, I was able to relax and enjoy my wedding morning without stress. She handled everything and I mean EVERYTHING from setting up the decorations I had purchased, to creating a beautiful orchid display by our welcome sign mirror, to artfully arranging desserts on the dessert table (which looked stunning!). Everything ran so smoothly from start to finish, and that is 100% thanks to Rachael's expertise and dedication. If I had to do it all over again, I would hire Rachael and The Chapter of Love in a heartbeat. Thank you, Rachael, for making our day so special and seamless!

Whenever we needed Rachael she was there and always one phone call away. Through the whole process it never felt like a stress because we trusted her and knew she always followed through for us. What we appreciate the most was her patience, her sincerity and her easy going personality... when we met her we knew 100% she matched our energy, she kept us on track and calm through the whole process. The wedding day was absolutely perfect, everything was just what we imagined but even BETTER! Could not have done it without Rachael. We love you!! You will forever be family to my mom, Kyle and I. Thank you for everything. We love you!
