    Everything setup!
    Philip M.

    Gina did an outstanding job with our wedding! A very kind heart and a knack for detail, she kept my bride-to-be collected and calm through this past crazy week. She had everything roll smooth on the day of. Perfection is literally what she does. Keeping check on our vendors for us, helping to coordinate payments for services, and setting up/coordinating everything - she had it together. The day of our wedding was perfect and she helped make it happen! I can't thank her enough for her dedication to quality and keeping tabs on everything that night. *Really - if you are searching for a wedding planner on Oahu stop looking now and pick Gina! She truly is the best of the best. Gina, we are in your debt for giving us the most wonderful day of our lives! Thank you!

    From the first appointment I knew Gina and her staff will go above and beyond. I'm so glad I was referred to Perfection International because they did go above and beyond!!!! Majority of the guest were local to Oahu while a few of us flew from Texas, California and Washington. She made the whole entire process smooth sailing. Since the wedding was considered destination I hired her for more than day of coordinator and I'm glad I did. If you're looking and debating for a coordinator I highly recommend gina and her staff. Trust me when I say this but you will need more than a day of coordinator! I had ideas and a vision for the wedding and she helped me put it together. She found the florist, DJ, linen and most importantly help me choose the venue!!!!! Every bride has their dream and my focus for the wedding was the food and ambiance . You can't go wrong with the halekulani's food choice but when gina helped me narrow down the venue that's when I started to get excited! It was so easy to schedule appointments with her (mind you we are on different time zones) she was always honest, friendly, easy going and they did get the job done! Whether you're located in the mainland, different island or different country and you are looking for a planner I would suggest perfection international as their time and prices and what they offer did best out four different coordinators I interviewed from the island of Oahu. Tips- Hire a planner first (they always can help you look for different vendors) Always plan 10-12 months in advance as the time will go by fast Be organized and do not procrastinate as I can't repeat this enough but the time will go by fast. Follow your vendors on FB or IG so you can get ideas of what you want your event to look and feel like. I have nothing negative or things I would change as my experience was AaaaaaMmmmmmazing.

    There are no words for all of Gina's awesomeness! She was worth everything! We are so thankful to have had her for the day of our wedding! We had monthly phone call meetings to help with planning and she was so so wonderful. She made things easy and stress free! The timelines and the 'homework' she gives you, truly serves a purpose for wedding planning! My other vendors raved about how organized things were. My family and friends also were impressed with how things transitioned from our ceremony to reception. If I had a worry, Gina made sure she took care of it. She was also the only one that could tame all of the groomsmen, let's just say my husbands friends are a wild bunch! Her staff was also amazing at our event! Hire Gina and her company, you will not regret it! #alohaesperaswedding

    The beautiful set up on my wedding day!

    See all

    Working with Louise at Love Letter Weddings and the LLW team was truly one of the greatest…read moreblessings of our entire wedding experience. 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. She made our fairytale a reality. We will cherish this special day forever.

    My husband and I recently had the most breathtaking, joy-filled dream wedding at Paliku…read moreGardens--made possible entirely by Louise and her phenomenal team at LLW. 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!

    We booked CIHW for day-of coordination, and it was quite literally the best decision we could have…read moremade. While Jayvee was very helpful during the initial planning stages, a scheduling conflict arose two weeks before our wedding, and we were handed off to Leah. Despite the short notice, Leah took over and was incredibly thorough. We scheduled multiple meetings in those final weeks to ensure she knew our vision inside and out. She immediately began checking in with our vendors to ensure everything was on track. Since we were planning from Canada (not sure why our profile says SF) and had never seen our venue, we did a walkthrough with Leah and Monique once we arrived. By the time we hit the rehearsal the day before, they knew our plans well and were identifying small details we hadn't even thought of. The real "kicker" happened the morning of the wedding: the island and our venue flash flooded, and we were forced to call off the day after hair and makeup were just wrapping up at 8AM. In what would have been a breaking point for most couples, Leah, Monique, and Jayvee were our rocks. They helped calm us down and worked tirelessly with our vendors to reschedule everything. We let them know our venue preferences (no ballrooms or conference rooms, we're in Hawaii!) and they assured us that we would be able to plan something for the next day. In less than 24 hours, they helped us plan an entirely new wedding despite unknowns about the weather. Within hours, they secured a brand-new venue, negotiated the rental of a tent left over from a previous event, coordinated with all vendors to rearrange arrival times and logistics, adjusted floor plans, and rental counts due to a shift in guest attendance, and so much more that we probably don't even know. While the total change in venue and timeline led to some unavoidable delays, we saw Leah and Monique working incredibly hard to pivot and make the day beautiful. They "married" our original vision with these new, emergency arrangements as perfectly as possible. It was also the nicest day we had experienced on the island since landing several days before, a huge blessing. Once we finally made it down the aisle, they kept us on schedule and completely stress-free. Because of them, we were able to actually soak in and enjoy our wedding day, even though everything felt brand new. Having Leah and Monique by our side was a true blessing, we cannot recommend them enough for their expertise, heart, and ability to perform under pressure. Leah, Monique, and Jayvee - we love you!

We are super grateful to have had them be a big part of our big day. My husband and I booked Kualoa Ranch as our wedding venue. They require a coordinator, so I reached out to a friend who had recently gotten married and she recommended ABC Weddings because they did an awesome job on her wedding. So that is what we did! We booked the Signature Hybrid Package. We booked ABC about 1.5 years prior to our wedding day. The team was so organized and very thorough throughout the entire process! We filled out a questionnaire to give the team an idea of our vision. They provided a comprehensive Google Sheet which included a planning checklist, our budget/payment tracker, our event timeline, inventory list, seating chart & guest list, and a list of recommended vendors based on our budget. As we got closer to our wedding date, Sammy was assigned to be our lead coordinator. We communicated over emails and mostly via text message for convenience. We met with her regularly over Zoom so we could go over our sheets and discuss our timeline, layout, etc. You can trust the ABC team with the layout; they know what they're doing and the placement of vendors/stations makes sense. Sammy made sure to capture every little detail that we mentioned we wanted for our wedding. She answered all questions my husband and I had. We didn't have to wait more than a business day for a response, which we truly appreciated. We were in the middle of a Kona Low storm during the week of our wedding, and my husband and I were worried about the weather, especially on our big day. The ABC team had a solid rain plan just in case, and kept us updated quick. Very fortunately, we just had a slight drizzle the morning of and did not rain the rest of the day :') it was nice to have a good rain plan handy, thanks to the team. I consider myself a Type A person who likes to meticulously plan trips and friends' birthdays, and trust me when I say a wedding coordinator is a MUST, no matter how organized you think you are lol. There are so many little details we definitely would've missed if we didn't have one. Our wedding day turned out to be a dream come true for my husband and me. Our ceremony and reception literally looked like images I saved to my Pinterest board! Everything went as planned and more. We were mostly on time with our timeline. It was so beautiful seeing everything we've planned for in the past year and a half come to life. Everyone we love was under one tent, they all looked like they were having a fun time, including our vendors. Shoutout to Jamie, Krista, and Sammy for taking care of me, my bridesmaids, my husband, and his groomsmen from the morning of our wedding to the end of the night! They all made sure we had everything we needed, including giving us our pupus, cocktails, and dinner so we wouldn't have to wait in line, and for even helping me fix my dress bustle! They all did an excellent job coordinating our wedding and making sure everything was cleaned up at the end of the night. We ended up getting all our deposits back :) it has been almost 3 weeks since our wedding and we already miss them and their good vibes. We 1000% recommend the ABC Weddings team to help plan/coordinate your dream wedding :)

    Despite the glowing reviews and many recommendations that ABC Weddings was one of the best planning…read moreand coordination teams in Oahu- I unfortunately was left very disappointed with the lack of presence/front-end coordination on the wedding day and miscommunication. For background information, we purchased their basic package for $3000 (which is only for hotel venues). The first mishap was when I wanted to schedule an appointment to discuss additional questions I had ($120 for 1 hour). They never showed up for my appointment. I did try calling their main line and the coordinators cell phone, but it all went to voicemail. In the end, it turned out that the coordinator was moving and had a lot on her plate, so my appointment fell through the cracks. They ended up scheduling me another meeting free of charge, which I did appreciate. In October, I was really feeling the pressure, so I inquired about having my coordinator start 3 weeks earlier than planned. ABC Weddings was quick to respond and have my lead coordinator, Sammy, start earlier for a $500 fee, to which I paid. Here's where things take a turn for the disappointing. When Sammy took over point of contact (POC), I still had my vendors emailing me directly for questions/info. Also, when I asked Sammy questions about my venue (i.e. rehearsal times/location, basic questions regarding catering, etc), she wasn't sure a lot of the times, which then meant I had to ask my venue directly. This wasn't EVERY time, but it was a lot of the time, which I felt defeated the purpose of taking over POC. I also felt there wasn't closed loop communication, so I was unsure of what Sammy was doing on her side with the vendors until the very end when I asked her to CC me on her final emails with timelines so I knew what they were being told. At the rehearsal, Sammy only had 2 copies of the timeline printed, which was not enough to distribute to both our parents and our maid of honor/best man. Additionally, we also learned at the rehearsal that she was NOT going to be the person actually coordinating the day. For example, letting us know where to go and when, updating the timeline if there are any changes, etc. Per our contract, it states: "We will check in with you before the professional photographer arrives to organize the important details, check in with family members, keep the timeline moving smoothly, get you out the door on time, organize requested group photos, and overall customer service throughout the day!" The huge missing pieces for us was checking in with family members, keeping the timeline moving smoothly, and getting us out the door on time. On the day of, Sammy was already confused on a decor piece that we had discussed at previous meetings, which led to me having to re-explain to her what I wanted during my hair/makeup. She did not check-in with any of my family members/bridal party. She only had communication with my matron of honor who was running the entire timeline/day, and this was largely because my matron of honor was the one checking in with her. She did not text us to let us know when to go where, so we were completely on our own. When it came time to put on my wedding gown, Sammy was unable to zip my dress, and the entire time I was clearly upset, she did not offer any reassurance or support, but rather spent time in the living room looking lost/confused. She did call the wedding shop, per my suggestion, and they came to the venue to help put on my dress which was amazing on their part (Casablanca!). Due to the issue with the dress, our timeline got pushed back by 15-20 mins, to which she told my matron of honor to let my parents know to delay our first look. Why didn't she text them and update the timeline herself? Although it worked out, this situation was not solved nor made better by Sammy. Honestly it felt like she didn't want to be there and didn't have a lot of care for our wedding day. I did share my thoughts with Lauren (CEO) post-wedding, and she was very apologetic but explained that "Our lead coordinators focus primarily on managing logistics, vendors, and timeline flow behind the scenes so couples can remain present and enjoy their day". This is confusing because that's not what is stated in our contract nor expected from our conversations. I understand she was doing the behind the scenes, but why was the timeline piece missing? There were two coordinators on site, to which I was told the 2nd coordinator would be doing setup/vendor management, but it seems like that's not the case? Irregardless, I felt the contract was not met, and that there was not any management for us, the wedding party and family members. Sadly, I would not recommend ABC Weddings if you are purchasing the basic coordination package. It definitely seemed that because I purchased the lowest tier, we were not high priority and it did not feel like they were willing to go above and beyond for one of the most special days of our lives.

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.

    We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Fred and Kate! From the very beginning,…read morethey were organized, easy to communicate with, and always made us feel heard and supported. No matter how many questions or requests we had (and we had plenty!), Tessa, Henry, Midori, and Lauren were consistently accommodating, friendly, and incredibly quick to respond. On the day of the wedding, the planning team showed up in full force. They were professional, efficient, and totally on top of everything--firm when they needed to be, but always brought the right energy and hype to keep the day exciting and fun. Everything ran so smoothly that we hardly even noticed they were there, which is a true testament to how well they had everything under control. We're so grateful for their dedication and would highly recommend Fred and Kate to any couple looking for a seamless and joyful wedding planning experience!

    Mona, Aileen and the rest of the NEU team exceeded our expectations. I was a very type A bride but…read moreMona's attention to detail, organization and helpful suggestions showed me how a real pro does it. The biggest issue on our wedding day was some passing rain around the time of the ceremony, but Mona came up with some scheduling pivots on site that helped us find a good solution and everything went off PERFECTLY. Wedding planning is not for the faint of heart but anyone can do it with Mona's help. Full service planning with her team was the way to go! If only I needed her services again, id hired her all over again in a heartbeat!

The days leading up to my son and daughter-in-law's wedding went off without a hiccup due to Mona and her well-orchestrated team. The day of the wedding had so many moving parts, an outdoor wedding on a beautiful estate, with 150 in attendance, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, entrance, dance, entertainment, bar, dessert display, coordination of photos and seating it was seamless due to Mona and her team. Mona is always one step ahead with every detail. So many friends and family commented on how beautiful and organized the entire wedding was. My son and daughter-in-law focused on their vows and a beautiful evening with their closest friends and family. All details were taken care of by Mona. NEU Events came highly recommended and I understand why. I was in awe of the level of experience, expertise, and excellence I watched unfold. I have lived in Hawaii for near 50 years and have attended countless weddings, events, and professional galas, many with excellent coordination and event planners, Mona with NEU Events is a few notches above the best I've experienced, Bar None

    I had my wedding back in April this year 2024. Cindy and Jessica were very helpful in the whole…read morewedding planning process. 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!!!

    I normally do not write reviews but this team deserves a special mention. From the photoshoot to…read morethe wedding day, everything went as planned. 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.

From the very first consultation to the final send-off at our Oahu wedding, Nicole was an absolute dream to work with. Planning a destination wedding can be stressful, but Nicole made the entire process smooth, fun, and totally stress-free. She was organized, thoughtful, and always one step ahead. Nicole truly listened to our vision and brought it to life more beautifully than we could have ever imagined. Every detail was perfectly executed--from the stunning venue setup to the flawless timeline coordination. Our guests were in awe, and we were able to just soak in the magic of the day without a single worry. Nicole's warmth, professionalism, and passion for what she does really shines through.

    Best day ever , literally! I am a California resident and wanted to elope with my husband (just…read morecelebrated our 1 year a couple months ago!). We searched around a few of the destination wedding sites for help and planning of a micro wedding/elopement in Hawaii. Nicole's team had the small business vibe, professionalism and knowledge that was obvious from the get go and blew the other agencies out of the water. Responses are prompt and straight forward and cover ALL of the bases. She is a steady support throughout the entire process, has connections in the area and for the best amenities, and offers a huge deal for what you're paying! Instead of comparing prices, deals, must haves, make the decision to include best day ever for your wedding planning and rest assured the fine details and plans run smoothly without the added stress of such an important day. I know other couples who have married in Hawaii and can solidly confirm their photography, details, ease and professional were no match in comparison and am grateful I went my gut instinct - now I recommend this to anyone!
