We had already been planning a Hawaii vacation with our families when we got engaged and decided to…read moredo a Hawaiian wedding too! With only 4 months to plan, Vickie pulled off a dream of a wedding for us!! From day one when I called to ask if we had enough time to book a wedding, she was helpful and responsive! Everything from getting licenses to the flowers was taken care of for us! Every vendor that Vickie chose for us, especially the photographer, the pastor, and my hair and makeup stylist, were A++ and did phenomenal jobs! I had never been to Hawaii and had absolutely no experience planning a wedding so I had to put my full trust in Vickie and her team and I am so glad I did!! The wedding day ran very smoothly with every detail in place and my expectations were far exceeded! THANK YOU to Vickie and Rick and the Love Maui Wedding team!

My husband and I got married on June 5, 2015. Over a year ago, I started researching wedding…read moreplanners to help plan our dream wedding on a beach in Hawaii. After sending inquiries to a handful of planners, I felt confident that Vickie of Love Maui Weddings would be the best choice given her responsiveness, attentiveness and enthusiasm in her initial correspondence. I stand by my decision today as Vickie planned such a wonderful wedding for us and 40 of our closest family and friends. Vickie and her husband, Rick, work with amazing vendors. The hair/makeup artist, Beth, did gorgeous work for my sister (Maid of Honor) and I. Ernest (officiant) performed a beautiful ceremony and the photographer, Jessica and her assistant were very creative and delightful to work with. Vickie recommended Cake Fanatics to create our cupcake tower for the reception and they did such a great job, our guests are still talking about how those were the best cupcakes they've ever had. Our on-site beach coordinator, Chris, was so friendly and made me feel comfortable and at ease despite us not having a rehearsal. Rick booked three different chartered vehicles to transport all our guests from different resorts to the separate ceremony and reception locations and it worked perfectly. The vehicles were new, clean and the drivers were on time and very professional. Planning a wedding is no easy task, let alone planning a destination wedding in a destination you've never been to. Vickie made everything easier from patiently answering hundreds of my questions to expertly recommending locations and timing and keeping track of all the little details. I'm very happy with my decision to work with Love Maui Weddings and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful and memorable Maui wedding.

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.

With so many moving parts and details, no wedding is perfect, however, Veronica made the process efficient, organized, and most of all fun ensuring that our wedding day was as close to perfect as possible. For anyone looking to plan their wedding, Veronica was always extremely friendly and helpful with all of our ideas and requests during planning. 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! We definitely highly recommend Your Aloha Wedding Company to any couples looking for a planner in Maui. They are so easy to communicate with, detailed oriented, experienced, well connected with vendors, and of course a absolute pleasure to work with! -Oliver & Angela

After our beautiful wedding here on Maui we wanted to make sure we left an amazing review for Kim…read morewith Island Wedding Memories! From day one, Kim has been the absolute BEST!! 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!

She was very organized, responsive, and always on top of everything throughout the entire planning process. We had regular Zoom meetings leading up to the wedding, which made it easy to stay on track, especially since wedding planning can get overwhelming very quickly if you fall behind. She was also very prompt with emails and always quick to answer questions and help with anything we needed. The day before the wedding, she met with us at our venue, Olowalu Plantation House, to go over everything one last time. On the wedding day, she was there throughout the entire event making sure everything ran smoothly and handling all the details behind the scenes. It was really nice being able to enjoy the day knowing she had everything under control. She did an excellent job, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding planner in Maui. We are so happy with our choice. I guess you could say it really was "The Perfect Wedding!"

The day before our ceremony, Frank checked our beach location after the recent storms from Hurricane Lowell and found that the beach had sustained significant damage. While we could still have held the ceremony there on the grass, he gave us the option of another beautiful location, which we ultimately chose. We really appreciated how proactive he was and that he gave us options. They also offer a great variety of wedding packages and choices for officiants, photographers, videographers, and more. Even the marriage license process was easy. Everything was smooth, organized, and stress-free. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a Maui wedding! We will cherish this memory for a lifetime!

5 Stars - Lori and Her Team EXCEEDED expectations…read more We had the pleasure of working with Lori at Topical Maui Weddings for our February wedding in Maui, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From our first consultation to the big day, they went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The attention to detail was impeccable. As a local bride, Lori's on island connections were truly unmatched. We had the best vendor recommendations and she always secured us the best prices. As a type A bride we met with multiple wedding planners before selecting Tropical Maui Weddings and her fair pricing along side her excellent connections and recommendations made his decision a no-brainer. They helped us secure the perfect venue for our reception a buy out at Gather on Maui, coordinated and managed all our vendors, and made sure everything ran smoothly, so we could focus on enjoying the moment. I walked into the venue on wedding day and was blown away by the work that went into making this the MOST beautiful day. The team was incredibly professional and truly understood our vision. Everything was handled I didn't even think twice. What stood out most was their ability to blend our personal touches with the breathtaking natural beauty of Maui. Our ceremony was at our family church which is not typical of what you think of when you think of Maui wedding and Lori and her team executed it flawless, even starting 2 minutes early! The ceremony was exactly what we had dreamed of--intimate, romantic, and seamless. The cherry on top of Tropical Maui Weddings is Jamie Lawrence. His musicality and performance captured the hearts of our guests. I still am getting texts about how special our cocktail hour and father daughter/mother son dance was. YOU NEED HIM TO PLAY AT YOUR WEDDING. If you're planning a wedding in Maui, I highly recommend Tropical Maui Weddings for their creativity, expertise, and genuine care for making your day unforgettable!

This review is embarrassingly overdue, as we have just celebrated our 3rd anniversary. But I can still say that the service we got from Lori and her team were excellent. Lori has a time tested process for gathering information for all her weddings, and the planning and organization of all aspects leading up to the event were great. There were a million decisions we had to make while planning our wedding, and Lori guided us through this process all the way through- flowers, tables and chairs, music, food, drinks, wardrobe, makeup, etc. etc. And once the day arrived, Lori and team were on-site from dawn to dusk, ensuring that the plan we so carefully prepared was executed flawlessly. Her goal is for the wedding couple to enjoy their day, without having to lift a finger and to be completely stress-free. I think we appreciated that the most (especially after seeing how stressed many of our friends were at their own weddings because they didn't have Lori!) Only after our wedding did we discover from our guests how much work was done behind the scenes- such as a guest breaking a glass on the beach, the wrong type of table being delivered to our site in the morning, lights not having been hung correctly. I may never know the full extent of that work, but I do know that Lori's team took care of it. So to recap- if you're wondering whether to hire Tropical Maui Weddings for your wedding, or even if it's worth hiring a wedding planner at all, I would say yes to both! You will absolutely not regret it.
