If you have any question on booking Kauai Elopements, I would just say book them right off the bat as they were absolutely wonderful in every way....at the same time, with planning a destination wedding, several questions are bound to come up t...hat would make you hesitant as you are getting married in a remote location (can't see everything necessarily in person in advance). Jessica and her team made themselves available through phone calls and emails daily to help with this! They responded with great detail and truly are excited for you both!
The efficiency of Kauai Elopements planning process is impeccable. I know I had read reviews about them at the time we were evaluating and the reviews all hold so true. You fill out a few different questionnaires dialing into you and your spouses preferences, and Jessica and Hailey were there to help with any questions if you were unsure of / wanted to combine ideas and what not....you receive an event timeline for the wedding day a few weeks in advance, confirm it, and then boom, the night before the wedding everyone confirms to you when they are coming in the morning for prep and photos, and you show up at the ceremony with ABSOLUTELY STUNNING flowers and everything is just prepared and ready!
I guess the point I am trying to make is, this process with Kauai Elopements was so refreshingly simple. Several times my Mom would be asking, so what is left to do? And pretty much all of the time it was, NOTHING, we already took care of it with Jessica and Hailey! Comparing to the planning process of a larger wedding locally, trying to do it on your own to save money etc., I would never choose it looking back. Kauai Elopements guides you through and coordinates ALL THE PLANNING for the wedding itself and at such a fair price. Everyone we mention how much the wedding cost was is blown out of the water....!
Everyone we worked with the day of our wedding, Stephanie (makeup), Nicolette (photography), Joel (videography), and Mara (site coordinator), and Kahu Ai (our officiant) were all so incredible, so talented, kind, and felt like family. I have never felt so beautiful in my life thank you to Stephanie. Nicolette’s personality and excitement was so contagious, she was so positive and encouraging! Joel, especially having to paddle board to our wedding 😆, was cool as a cucumber and so calming! Mara answered any of our questions quickly and kept all organized and moving forward, so kind also of course!! Again, she just felt like a family member! 😊 Lastly, Kahu Ai, we will absolutely never forget him and the ceremony he gave us. We loved every Hawaiian gift/tradition, and he made the ceremony just so incredibly meaningful to both of us, we loved the deep breaths, really being in the moment, and could not get over the timing of the wind picking up at the beginning and the slight rain when we exchanged rings. Such a magical day. Wouldn’t change a thing!!
Again, our deepest thank you to all!!! Ryan and I truly recommend this company to anyone, their team really deserve the 5 stars!!
Much love,
Christi & Ryan
