We started our wedding journey in 2019 by booking Hau'oli Hiers as our wedding coordinator. Due to the global pandemic, we were forced to replan our wedding 4 times and finally got...
the job done 30 months later, during the threat of another lock-down and in the midst of further Mayoral mandates/restrictions, in September 2021.
Hau'oli was with us every step of the way and was nothing short of exceptional! When I say she went above and beyond for us, that's a gross understatement. She pivoted with us at every twist and turn, regardless of what crazy, unexpected hurdle was thrown in our path.
Literally 2 weeks before our wedding, we had to replan our ceremony and reception AGAIN, at the last minute, due to new restrictions mandated by the Mayor of O'ahu. Hau'oli once again strapped on her boots and led us safely and successfully through the metaphorical jungle, and there was a gorgeous beach wedding/reception on the other side! Not once did she hesitate to adapt with us during out-of-the-box brainstorming sessions-- daily calls (sometimes 3 a day) and running to venues to give us virtual tours while we sat on pins and needles here in NY, consistently providing innovative ideas (to work around roadblocks), and going with whatever we green lit to get it done. And when we finally arrived in O'ahu, she met us at Costco and Target to help us stock up on items we'd need for our after party, which she lugged around for us in her car and delivered after our reception. She did not have to do any of that, but had graciously offered. Yes, we paid her for a service (which, by the way, was a very reasonable price). But this treatment shows just how much she cares about her clients and her business. It's a passion project for her and exemplifies the absolute Spirit of Aloha!
We were sad to say goodbye to her after everything was over, feeling like we were saying farewell to a good friend. After we returned to NY, she called to check in on us and see how we were doing, and we were so happy to hear from her!
At the end of the day, there are no words sufficient enough to express our gratitude to Hau'oli for all that she's done for us these past 2.5 years. We were strangers to her, but she made us feel like Ohana (family).
Thank you so much, 'Oli! Mahalo for everything!
Just hire Oli and her team. Thank me later. Oli is the ray of sunshine my husband and I didn’t know we would really need when planning our wedding from across the country. She and ...
her team have the experience to anticipate the needs of the couple, wedding party, family, and guests, and come prepared to quickly smooth out any possible bumps often before they happen on a very hectic day. Going above and beyond doesn’t begin to describe this incredible team. I was actually able to turn off my planning, logistical brain and just live in the many moments. Trust Oli and her team. They will deliver on the details, the vibe, and the memories.
*5 STARS HIGHLY RECOMMEND for DESTINATION BRIDES*!!
Hau'oli and her Team were skilled and timely! They handled our $122,000 Wedding with ease from Minnesota! We loved how many dif...
ferent options 'Oli and her team gave us, but
WE HAD TO DO THE FULL SERVICE PACKAGE because she gave us SO MANY INVENTORY ITEMS, and helped let our minds be at ease from letting us text her, call her, and just be such an outstanding HAWAIIAN HOST !! Our ACTUAL BIG Wedding is currently postponed, but that is exactly why we HIRED FULL SERVICE PACKAGE so we could keep Hau'oli on as our Coordinator!!
She already let us ship everything to her and is holding our items. We had to elope for this current Pandemic, but wanted you TO KNOW, CHOOSE THIS COORDINATOR!!! She has gone above and beyond!!
Hiring Oli as our wedding planner was the best decision we made for our wedding! I am very Type-A so after all the vendor searches and countless spreadsheets, I thought I had it al...
l covered. Oli stepped in and really helped us fine tune all the details and make us understand how it would all be executed. I definitely didn't have it all covered! Her planning template/workbook is such a dream for any bride. She has thought of it all. Her & her team had quite the undertaking with our venue, our sizable guest list, and then to top it all off - the POURING rain, but they executed it wonderfully and truly gave us the best day ever to remember. Our family & friends still rave about it and tell us it's the best wedding they've been to. We couldn't have hoped for anything better. Thank you so much, Oli!
When I first started planning my wedding I thought I could handle everything. Boy was I wrong. Thats when I found Oli. She was quick to respond, and readily available every step of...
the way. From the weekly meetings to text messages to calls to handling everything the day of Oli and her team did an AMAZING job.
I cannot stress how important it is to hire help for your wedding! Im so glad we had Oli and so grateful for her execution of our perfect day. Her professionalism and knowledge are valuable and I recommend her and her team to anyone planning a party or wedding! Mahalo to you Oli and your team!
Oli and her team are by far the best decision we made while planning our wedding. Once she arrived on site we didn't even think about a thing except eating (most important), drink...
ing, and having fun with our friends and family. Her team handled the set up of the florals, table place settings, and the bar. Her team even bartended for us when we had just planned on letting guests serve themselves! She did so many things during our wedding that we didn't even realize until she was gone. Oli and her team assisted with picking up items morning and dropping off rental items the day after. She is warm and caring when she needs to be but has the firmness when needed also. You will not regret hiring her, she is an absolute pro and goes the extra mile for her clients. Mahalo to Oli and her team!! My husband and I wish Oli all the success in the future!
Oli was amazing and a sure lifesaver. She made our day even more perfect by eliminating any of our worries on the special day. With her at the helm we were able to sit back and rel...
ax and concentrate on ourselves rather than every little detail that we hoped would go according to plan. Oli’s team were professional, efficient, compassionate and exactly what we needed for our wedding. Before the wedding she went above and beyond going to our venue which was over an hour away and making sure it was what we wanted. The day of the wedding she spent numerous hours preparing the site with brooms, shovels and hard work. She was our time keeper and worked with multiple different vendors coordinating everything so we didn’t have to. She made sure everything went through her and her team from parking to food to decorations and so on. Our day was perfect and would highly recommend anybody in need of a wedding planner who cares for their clients like family to use Oli and her team.
Honestly, I would never have thought that this day would have come, and to have it so completely organized and stress free, it wouldn’t have been possible without Oli! She made eve...
rything possible. I am a very simple person, and tried to do everything on my own, and boy was I wrong!! I needed the stability and reassurance of a wedding coordinator, and the support of best friend who is willing to put up with my stress and frustrations of everything else. Before finding my wedding life savior, I managed to find my venue, secure my vendors, and other necessities, but had a hard time trying to deal with everything going on at the same time, my stress levels were extremely high, however Oli came to my rescue and assured that everything will be taken care of! She is more than what words can say: kind, compassionate, courteous, spirited, and the professionalism that she exuded was more than I can ever ask for. From beginning to end, she assisted me in picking out my centerpieces, organized my vendors, kept my timeline in check, and so on. On the day of my wedding, while getting ready, Oli planned to have refreshments available to me and make sure that I’m well hydrated. The “first look” that Oli coordinated was something that I loved and helped with my nerves. Seeing my now then husband helped with the nerves that I was facing and made me feel happy and ready to get married!!! Soon after the ceremony, she helped with the photos, and when I felt that a shot would benefit with my veil, she ran to get it!!! Without her devotion to making the bride feel beautiful, we wouldn’t have gotten the magical photos taken of our special day!! Oli transitioned each event on the timeline so smooth, I didn’t even realize it!! She’s a godsend coordinator you could ever ask for!! Normally I am a picky person when asking for help, but I swear Oli is someone that you can count on to make your special day, a magical and beautiful one you will never forget!! I plan on contacting Oli for my future life events from now on. She’s more than just a wedding and event coordinator, she’s loyal and trustworthy, she’s the best friend you can ask for and part of my family!
Hollywood always show beautiful weddings that highlight the best day in a girl’s life, and what girl doesn’t want that. I never wanted a big wedding, but I still wanted it to be pr...
etty and special. I thought I could handle the preparations myself since I wanted something small. We planned to get married over a year after our engagement to ensure all the important parties could make it to Hawaii from the mainland, so it added to my delusion that I could do this myself. I had never expected that there were so many details, most that I had never imagined, that go into planning a wedding!
With the wedding coming up faster than I thought, I realized that I didn’t want to stress out on my special day. (Side note: shortly after our engagement, I broke out in stress hives just DISCUSSING the planning process!) I researched everywhere to find a day-of- coordinator that matched our needs & our budget. I was about to lose hope that I wouldn’t find someone that fit, when an angel appeared before my fiancé, heard our wedding preparation stress story, and offered to save the day! ‘Oli was literally a godsend because I fully enjoyed my wedding day with zero stress! It was like I could shut off my brain because she was there with her team and completely took control.
The venue allowed us to set up the night before our wedding day, so ‘Oli helped set everything up with my relatives: table decorations, framed origami crane artwork, etc. On our wedding day, ‘Oli shuffled between our hotel rooms to make sure we’re sufficiently hydrated, coordinated our “first look” location with the photographers, and checked us out of our hotel rooms. All I had to worry about was just sitting still for the hair and makeup and pose for the cameras! When we arrived at the venue, she made sure we were separated, and everyone was in their proper places when it was time to start the ceremony. ‘Oli and her team were wonderful and completely professional. It was really a great weight lifted from my shoulders when she said in a previous meeting that if anyone came to me for instructions, all I had to do was say “Look for ‘Oli, ask ‘Oli about that, etc.” So, I did just that. All we had to do was to be present and have fun! She’s a problem solver and handles stress like a boss! At some point during the reception after sunset, the photographers wanted to do a series of night shots, but the venue had already locked up the golf carts and it would have been a long walk to the desired location. In minutes, ‘Oli found a vehicle large enough for us to use and shuttled us to the location for some amazing pictures.
After the wedding, as guests were filing out and the DJ was packing up, ‘Oli was still there packing everything else up for us. I had completely forgotten that our baker had added a bunch of stands and platters for our desserts and wedding cake that needed to be delivered. ‘Oli took care of that, and even wrapped up our cake for my family to take home for us! She packed up the reception table to make it easier for my family to take home, including the crane artwork in its special box.
I can’t express how grateful I am that ‘Oli was there to handle the best day of my life. I only wished we had found her earlier, as I probably wouldn’t have been as stressed out as I was with the wedding planning. It's her passion & she's ecstatic to give brides the wedding of their dreams.
