Maui Love Wedding + Events helped me plan our wedding starting in 2019 for a May 2020 wedding. Unfortunately, we like so many other couples faced postponements due to COVID. Due to this worldwide pandemic, we rescheduled our wedding to May 20...21. Our first meeting was via phone as we live on the East Coast. We discussed their packages, our wants/needs and dreams, and the different Vendors on Maui for our destination wedding with Brittany. I created our Pinterest board which I highly recommend doing so that your words become visual for you and your Planner. I feel like this really helped Brittany envision what we wanted. From there she created a “dreamscape” which outlined the details we wanted for our wedding.
From the beginning of hiring Brittany, she was on top of things. She communicates well and is friendly, understanding, patient, and professional. With all of the things that happen during the planning and implementing a wedding, she maintained her composure for me. Since we had to postpone our wedding in 2020 to 2021 Brittany ensured that she contacted all our Vendors and informed them formally. She handled all communication and ensured they were available for our new wedding date, which for me was a huge stress reliever. Keep in mind that we bought the larger package from Brittany which included this feature. You as the client can be as active/inactive as you want with your Vendors. We had various vendors for our wedding and MLW+E offers a budget tracker to ensure that you both stay on track for accountability.
Planning our wedding was very drawn out due to the pandemic and even though there weren’t any or many weddings being performed Brittany was still in my corner and responding to all my messages. You can communicate via phone/text, but I recommend maintaining all communication via Honeybook for tracking and review. I really enjoyed building a friendship with Brittany. She’s so awesome and she and I are very similar in character so it made things a lot easier. We definitely had fun and it was better when we were face to face as she is so cheerful. Brittany understood what I wanted for our wedding and made sure that it happened.
The week leading up to our wedding we just verified payments and Vendors. She coordinated our Rehearsal at our venue which was great so that we could see the location again. On the day of the wedding, she ensured that all the Vendors showed up on time and were in place. Also, making sure that they were doing what they were supposed to do. Brittany, also had an assistant helping on the day of as well. There was a lot that she did on the day that I definitely missed since I was getting ready and doing photos so I cannot speak entirely on this, but what I can say is that nothing seemed out of place. Everything was done the way we wanted as per the Dreamscape and it was absolutely beautiful. I am very grateful for my experience with Maui Love Weddings + Events, primarily with Brittany. I really appreciate you bringing our dream wedding to life from a distance.
If you’re looking for a Wedding Planner that is going to listen to your dreams intently and bring your wedding to life, Maui Love Weddings + Events will not disappoint. They will help you through it all and a Pandemic (Lord forbid).
Mahalo Nui Loa for everything, Brittany. I really appreciate your diligence, friendship, and aloha.
