After looking around at varies vendor, we choose Alicia based on a coworker's referral & first hand experience. We hired MEH for partial planning + day of coordination for our des...
tination wedding (We lived in the west coast). We greatly valued her knowledge as she has suggestions for everything we requested or have questions about. She offers lots of recommendation that we ended up using (or not) and we value her opinions. MEH was on the ball on the day of wedding to ensure everything happens accordingly and on time despite delays here and there - down to the little things like to ensure we have time to eat. We didn't meet the MEH team until a week prior to wedding, but it was no issues whatsoever. All the phone calls / emails / skype was sufficient. Alicia and her team also allowed us to send packages (like wedding decors etc) to her so we don't have to haul it with us to Hawaii. The service didn't stop there, as we received post wedding (a month afterwards) help here and there as well. Kudos to Alicia and her team.

The moment I met Alicia, I knew it was meant to be. We hit it off immediately. I felt like I had known her for years! I trusted her with my life, and the biggest event of my lif...
e thus far, my wedding day. We hired our own vendors, but handed it all over to Alicia and Jen about a month before the big day. They took it all into their hands and my husband and I didn't have to lift a finger. They were two of the most organized people I've ever met and literally thought of everything. Their attention to detail is superb, and they really took the time to get to know my husband and I though out the whole process. They completely personalized the entire experience and went above and beyond for us.
Some examples: On the day of the wedding, my shoes ended up being extremely uncomfortable...after our first dance, I approached our sweetheart table to find that Alicia and Jen had lined up an arsenal of shoes for me to choose from to replace my shoes and relieve my achy feet. Another example: We had a taco bar as one of our food stations, and a lot of our toppings had cilantro in them. Knowing that I absolutely despise cilantro, Alicia and Jen put aside toppings for me that were cilantro-free. These may seem like small details, but I was really impressed and SO thankful that they took the time to remember those things!!
Side note: A rainbow appeared over our reception site right after the ceremony ended. I wouldn't be surprised if Alicia and Jen ordered that rainbow just for us as a special touch :) just kidding. But really...they're seriously THAT good!
I don't think our wedding would have been as memorable and perfect without Milestone Events. The fact that Alicia and Jen took care of everything gave my husband and I unlimited time to spend with our loved ones and enjoy our wedding day without worrying about details. I am not exaggerating when I say our wedding day was absolutely flawless thanks to them. I would hire them again in a heartbeat, and I think you'd be crazy not to hire them!!
Alicia is in one word AMAZING!
I am so happy to have found Milestone Events for our wedding. As a destination bride, I knew I needed someone in Hawaii to help coordinate with ve...
ndors as well as be there the day of the wedding. I researched quite a few wedding planners and when I talked to Alicia on the phone for the first time we instantly clicked! She is so nice, thoughtful, organized, easy to contact and knows the ins and outs of the industry.
Alicia provided us with a list of recommended vendors, and while I did research other vendors, we went with everyone she recommend as they truly were the best and the right fit for our wedding. Alicia made the planning of the wedding way less stressful even though I could never make a decision and emailed Alicia all the time, she always had an answer for everything!
A few days before the wedding it was announced that Hurricane Iselle was aiming to hit the island the night of the wedding. Since our wedding was outdoors, that was pretty much the worse and I had no idea at that point what to do. Well thank goodness for Alicia, she was so calming and reassuring and already had 2 back up plans in place.
Day of the wedding the weather was gorgeous, however as it approached the start time of our ceremony the weather took a turn for the worse. Alicia and her team were out in the pouring rain, making sure our reception area and our guests weren't getting wet. If it wasn't for Alicia we would have been screwed. She was there the whole entire time and everything ran flawlessly! She even made the rain stop :)
Thank you so much Alicia for everything we couldn't have asked for anything better! All of our guests commented on what an awesome job you did. The locals will be recommending you to all their friends as well as the entire bridal party wants you to be their wedding planners here in Canada!
Alicia, Alicia, Alicia!!! She is a really amazing person who became a friend more than someone we just used to help with our wedding. She listen's, know's what she's doing, and is ...
bar none the best wedding planner ever! (side note: i attend a lot of weddings being a local entertainer...she is the best:) My wife had a lot of ideas for the wedding and day of, Alicia brought those ideas to life! On our wedding day she was like a highly skilled ninja who would appear to tell us where to be and how much time we had, and then pull back into the shadows to take care of behind the scenes stuff, all the while keeping an eye on us to make sure we were ok. And might i add she has an equally amazing side kick named Jenn!(they would definitely kick Batman and Robyn's but,in a wedding sense:) We really had an amazing wedding and one of the biggest reasons is because of Alicia and Jenn!!! They are such blessings to this world and anyone looking to make their fairy tail dream wedding come true...Alicia and Jenn are your two:)
We were trying to plan a Hawaiian wedding for 40 people from New Jersey and had no opportunity to come to the location at all during the planning. We were also not entirely sure w...
e needed a wedding planner at first. We realize now there was no way we could have done this on our own, and we would not have been free to enjoy and participate in all the happy moments had we not outsourced to Alicia and her crew.
Alicia kept me on target with what needed to be done, our conference calls were organized and thorough. She truly wanted to get to know my husband and I as well as possible before meeting us. She sked for pictures, wanted to know how we met, really wanted her questionnaires filled out so she could gain understanding of who we were as a couple.
I didn't worry about leaving out any element of our event, after each conference call she'd email me with talking points from our call and action items. She was a true professional. That was all wonderful for us, and was a huge weight off of our shoulders being so far away and definitely worth the money spent, however, the real value in milestone events was what they did for us on the day of our wedding.
My husband and I cannot believe the service that this planner provided. They were at our venue (which was a massive vacation home we were renting and our 30+ guests were staying as well) first thing in morning, they didn't even bother us. They were dealing with caterers, and tent set up, layout, putting pool toys away etc. They were lovely with the four children involved, and assigned family members to accomplish certain tasks (have kids shower at 1:00pm etc) and kept them moving. They made sure I was relaxed and checked in with me periodically. They kept everything moving along smoothly. I simply got ready at leisure, and I was summoned when it was time. Everything was beautiful, everyone was calm, the children knew their places and the night simply flowed. I was so happy, and so moved by how Alicia and her team were able to seemingly wave a wand and create perfection. The little surprises such as the bathrooms in the home adorned with toiletries and candles, or the after party that the crew set up by our pool with drink and music and the best, when I went to get a late snack I found labeled "to go" containers in the refrigerator topped with flowers. My husband and I were so floored with the attention to detail and the realization that we never once thought about anything other then the enjoyment of the day. Alicia goes out of her way to make you feel not like a "client" she wants to understand your vision, your budget and your concerns. She is a trustworthy and dedicated
professional who is very passionate about what she does, and she does it very, very, well.
My husband was skeptical whether we would really need wedding planners--we were, after all, having a mostly DIY wedding. We ended up purchasing the day of services and we both agre...
ed that it was definitely worth the money. We really didn't want to put responsibility on our guests, especially since so many of them were from out of town. Leading up to the wedding, Alicia and her team were great--prompt and detailed oriented. On the day of a lot of things had to change because it was absolutely POURING. Long story short, everything went very smoothly all thanks to Milestone Events. In any case, even as a couple that really wanted to keep costs low, we really believe that this was so worth the money. Alicia is also just such a charming woman and she was a pleasure to work with.
Alicia and her team are OUTSTANDING! I didn't even want to hire a coordinator, and a few months before my wedding I got nervous and began interviewing coordinators for my Hawaii we...
dding that I was planning from Brooklyn. Alicia was professional, articulate, encouraging, and organized from the very beginning. She kept my husband and I on track and helped us plan for things we never would have thought of.
Once we met her in person, Alicia was completely committed to making our day a success. The day before our event we found out there would be a Spartan race at our venue. I freaked out, and Alicia contacted all my vendors to confirm earlier start times in anticipation of traffic. She also remedied a stressful future mother-in-law scenario like a pro- gently reminding our families that we "were no longer answering questions" and to direct all questions to her in the 24 hours before the wedding. I could have kissed her!
Lastly, the day went off without a hitch. Alicia runs a tight ship and doesn't miss details. We could relax and have fun. She would quietly find us throughout the night and tell us what was coming up next, while we got to party. She certainly exceeded these New Yorker's expectations. You will not be sorry if you hire her!
Alicia and her team provided "day of wedding" services for my wedding on July 1, 2014. Alicia was very professional, detail-oriented, very thoughtful and just overall amazing!!! S...
he went above and beyond than what I expected! Since it was a destination wedding, Alicia and I corresponded over email and telephone frequently. She was very responsive! In addition, she also graciously let me ship my favors straight to her for safekeeping. We met a couple of times in person before the wedding. The first time was to review and finalize the details a few days before the wedding and again for the wedding rehearsal. I had a fairly big party and Alicia made sure we knew exactly what we needed to do. She even had print outs of reminders for the wedding party. My wedding was was as perfect as it could be and MEH played a key role in making that happen. Alicia and team, thank you again so much for all your help in making my wedding awesome!
Alicia and her team are a dream come true!! Multiple vendors recommended her to us, and we are so happy we took their advice. We had a destination wedding with 150 guests, and Alic...
ia and her team made all of the coordination stress free and helped bring all of our dreams to reality!
Alicia went above and beyond and thought about so many details I wasn't even expecting. She brought her own gold chargers for our sweetheart table as an added touch, and touchup kits for the bathrooms with bug spray, etc. for our guests. She made sure we were on schedule for every event, but was able to go with the flow when the speeches went a little long (thanks, dad ;) ) and we had to move around the fire performance. We were able to enjoy every moment of our big day thanks to Alicia's awesome team handling all of the details and taking on all the stress.
She was half the price of most of the other wedding planners we had contacted, and offered way more! She is fun to get to know and has a loving and care-free personality. She is very organized, has amazing relationships with the best vendors on the island, and was able to work with us on complicated requests (ie. party buses, after party venue, spontaneous singing by the groom) while still staying within our budget. She coordinated all of the colors and style since we were in California and couldn't see everything in person, and when we showed up at the venue on our wedding day it was even more than we had imagined. Our guests absolutely loved her and her team, and we received numerous compliments about how amazing she was and what a great job her and her team were doing. We were all in awe of how perfectly it all came together.
Thank you Milestone Events Hawaii for making it the best day of our lives, and an event we will all remember forever!!
The most intense, stressful, exciting, nerve racking and happy time of your life was all made easy with Alicia. We couldn't have travelled from Australia to Hawaii to get married i...
f it wasn't for her.
She went above her role as a wedding planner, she was a big support in the lead up to our wedding day and after. She assisted us with vendors prior to us flying over, she directed us and supported us in our decisions. She was amazing and we would highly recommend Alicia assisting you on your special day!
Looking back on my wedding, there are some things I could have done without but Alicia was certainly not one of them!
When I first began thinking about my wedding, I briefly co...
nsidered a wedding planner but I thought of it as an "extra"-something that I should be able to do without but would be nice to have. Fast forward many wasted months and moments of sheer panic while thinking of the ordeal that had become planning my wedding- I met my saving grace, Alicia Hollinger.
I could not have imagined my big day without having Alicia there to make things run smoothly. The day flys by so fast and so many things pop up unexpectedly- who is going to open the doors for your big entrance? Did someone grab the ring bearer pillow? Plus who makes sure that YOU have a chance to eat all that great food you paid for?!? Alicia took of everything, eliminated any unnecessary stress for myself and my family and allowed me the chance to enjoy the day we worked so hard to make memorable.
Alicia spent time getting to know myself and my husband and with her knowledge of the wedding world and her impeccable taste- I trusted her completely to make everything perfect (and it was!) My new husband and I were diligently looked after and Alicia became a great friend that I trusted to take care of me on the most important day of my life.
I cannot recommend her services more or say enough about Alicia as a person. She is someone you can trust to be professional and genuinly care that you get everything you need and more on your big day.
We had the pleasure of working with Alicia of Milestone Events for our wedding after 2 separate couples that we are friends with highly recommended her. We were extremely impressed...
with her both personally and professionally, and we were blown away by how amazing the big day came together and how smoothly everything went.
We selected the full coverage planning option, and she did an incredible job. She is willing and able to handle all of the details for you after you give her an idea of what you envision (as she did for one of our friends), or have you involved as you would like to be and help make your precise and detailed vision a spectacular reality (as she did for us).
We were actually rather particular and needy clients, with a large wedding of 140 people. We are "foodies" and very particular in that sense, and Alicia worked with us over countless hours as we extensively designed our own menu, including signature cocktails from scratch, and dessert ideas that no local bakery had much experience making before (maple bacon cupcakes with candied bacon, etc).
There were so many things that needed to come together and that could have gone wrong, but she brought everything together seamlessly. We are still in awe of the amazing celebration she helped to create. She obviously has extensive experience, a huge collection of vendors that she has worked with many times before, and an incredible drive and passion to create a special day that is all that you are hoping for it to be. Everything for us was perfect and even more amazing than we had dreamed of, and we know that it is in large part because of Alicia and all of her help. We highly recommend Alicia and Milestone Events if you are planning a special celebration and want help taking it up to a whole other level!
My husband and I got married on November 10, 2013. When I met with Alicia, she immediately wanted to know my theme... Of course not knowing what I wanted, she worked really hard wi...
th me to establish such an imperative foundation for any wedding. In the end, our theme ended being being so much more than I could have ever dreamed. We were able to combine families and show the culture of both the bride and the groom: bride being from a strong, traditional Hawaiian Ohana, groom being from a strong east coast background, graduate of the naval academy himself. I had over 100 guests fly from the mainland and overall had about 200 people at our wedding. It was gorgeous, amazing, and people still talk about it to this day. Alicia even helped us plan the rehearsal dinner that went so smoothly [80 people at a gorgeous private home with a view to die for, hula, musicians, and fire knife dancing were all apart of the entertainment]. The week itself, with so much activity can be so stressful, and so many of my friends assumed I would have a Zilla moment; but knowing that Alicia and her crew were behind me made everything so smooth and everyone remarked at how SMOOTH everything went and how stress free I was. I had Alicia To thank for that. I would highly recommend her and hope that she is honored in the highest way.
We hired Milestone Events Hawaii to help plan our destination wedding. We knew we wanted to have our reception at La Mariana Tiki Bar, but we had no idea where we wanted to have th...
e ceremony. Alicia helped us find a great venue and got us an amazing deal on the place. She found our photographer and florist, too! What I really appreciated about working with Alicia was that she was budget conscious, and did her absolute best to find us great vendors in our price range. Also, her wedding day coordination was spot on and everything went smoothly. We really could not have asked for a better wedding, as it was more than we could have ever hoped for.
My husband and I picked the date and location of our wedding and Alicia and her staff did the rest. Our day was perfect from start to finish. We didn't have to worry about any of t...
he details and neither did our guests. Everyone had a great time. It was truly the best day of our lives. We couldn't have done it without Milestone Events :)
We hired Alicia Hollinger from Milestone events for our wedding at Lanikuhonua in April 2013. We started working with Alicia about a year prior. Being from Vancouver, BC, I had to ...
trust my instincts and the reviews I read about WC's in Oahu. I had 2 phone interviews with other planners prior to picking Alicia. Her down to earth, friendly personality was what I was looking for. She is FILLED with ideas and never once made me doubt her taste and professionalism in wedding planning. Hubby and I could not afford to visit the venue or meet with Alicia months prior to the wedding. We literally met with her a week before and everything at that point was seamless. When we saw the venue for the FIRST time on our wedding day, along with all the decorations/ set-up, it blew our minds! We (and our guests) were so impressed with how the theme/vision was put together... from the small details that Alicia thought of to all the great vendors that SHE recommended! My guests are still raving about the food, our live singer and DJ. We couldn't be happier and would definitely work with her again when we have our future anniversaries there! I would highly recommend Milestone events Hawaii for your special day :) Thanks again Alicia and we miss you!
Alicia was the best thing that could ever happen to me. As a destination bride it is sooo hard especially when your soon to be husband keeps saying "I just can't see it" and your f...
amily is driving you a bit insane and all you can tell them is it is going to be great hoping that it actually will be great. I got pointed in the direction of Alicia and Milestone Events Hawaii by my Venue Kualoa Ranch. The only thing I knew, was that I am going to get married on Oahu, that it was going to be at Kualoa Ranch Secret Island and the Photographer I wanted. After speaking with Alicia I knew I needed her and that she would be my lifesaver which she was! She set me up with all of the other vendors that I needed and kept me on payment schedule she sent me color samples for linens via mail and was so easy to contact and go through things with. Alicia had nothing but good advice and was pleasant literally my BEST friend. I was able to send her things ahead of time like my cake cutter and cookie favors and such. When we arrived we met with her and her assistant they both were so great! The day of was more than I could have ever imagined, she made it completely stress free and went above and beyond by adding small details that she new I wanted like a starfish on the napkin and the chairs on the beach. My parents were amazed by how well she did everything and how above and beyond she went for us. When me and my father were waiting to walk out it started drizzling and I got worried and her assistant told me and my dad "that it was a blessing from those who could not be here today" my dad was so taken back by that he thought it was a great thing to say and he always brings it up. These women will be the BEST FRIEND you will ever have getting you through putting a wedding together!! I don't even want to think of how my wedding would have turned out with out them.

The best thing I ever did for my wedding is hire milestone events. I believed I could plan the wedding but I just didn't want the stress and I just wanted to have everyone enjoy th...
emselves. This was my reason for convincing my husband that a planner would be a good idea. What Alicia and her team did for us was so much more than we imagined. She has great vision and tailors the event to you. She takes care of all the small details that you might over look. She picks vendors that are not only amazing but more importantly are a great fit for your wedding. She understands your budget and respects it. What she did with our budget was amazing. The week before our wedding we had family and friends in town and we were able to spend time with our family and not worry about the wedding. I walked into our wedding and thought "this can't be my wedding ... It is too perfect. " My husband was equally impressed. At first he had his doubts but he was thrilled with all the work Alicia did for us. It's all about the details ...At the end of the night she sent us off with leftovers for tomorrow and all of our stuff set and ready in our town car. When we were back in the room Tim realized he did have his wallet in the room where he got ready we texted Alicia and she let us know it was in our night bag in the front pocket. She took care of everything ...we didn't even have to think she was always one step ahead
My husband and I were married Lanikuhonua which requires a professional planner. We interviewed three different planners, all recommended by close friends. We selected Alicia and h...
er MEH team due to their obvious competence and Alicia's friendly relaxed nature. We felt an easy rapport with her immediately - she understood the casual beach elegance that we desired and did not impose her ideas on us, rather she embraced our vision and made truly thoughtful recommendations. While we did not hire her to manage and select our vendors, we welcomed her suggestions and experience as we researched, interviewed and engaged different vendors. She was highly organized with a detailed planning portfolio which kept us on track and on schedule.
The MEH team on our wedding day was efficient, friendly, attentive, well-dressed and absolutely key to making our day perfect. I will never forget the sweetness of one of her staff who stood with me as I nervously awaited my walk across the lawn to the ceremony. She kept me calm and collected (we didn't have a wedding party - I would otherwise have been alone for 15 minutes until I met my brother beneath the palm trees to walk me down the aisle). We cannot say enough about Alicia and her team. I would highly recommend them to any bride-to-be. They were invaluable!
Alicia and her team were fantastic to work with during the wedding planning process. She was on time and gave good feedback. On the day of the wedding, her team put together a wond...
erful outdoor, sophisticated backyard beach wedding for my husband and I. She also has great recommendations for bakers, DJs, and photographers.
I didn't realize that I forgot to leave this feedback...sorry Alicia!
First of all, I was a destination bride so I knew I would need some help. I was able to plan things and res...
erve everything but I hired Alicia (and Jen) so they can help me on the day of the wedding.
Alicia and I were in contact months before the wedding. I flew to Hawaii in Sept (didn't get married until June) so we ironed out a lot of details then. In no time, she had a timeline for us ready!
The day of the wedding went so smoothly! I didn't even realize all the hardwork she and Jen put in until after the wedding. All the details we talked about...from the timing of things to the placement of my decoration. I was so happy!
Totally worth getting a planner whether or not they help you with the whole thing or the just on the day of! I recommend Alicia because of her passion to make your special day the best day! She has a lot of useful tricks up her sleeves! Thank you again Alicia!!!
I used Milestone Events Hawaii to help plan my destination wedding in Oahu and whole-heartedly recommend her to plan your event!
We live in California and I needed someone on-si...
te whom I could trust, who had great taste, and also had strong relationships with vendors to complete my overall desired aesthetic for the event.
I was in great hands with Alicia, who was very professional, relaxed, and helped to execute my vision to a tee. I insisted on wooden tables because I don't like polyester tablecloths and wanted the rustic outdoor look, and she tracked down a vendor whom she hadn't used before and made it happen. She went the extra-mile for us and we cannot thank her enough!! It was the perfect evening.
I definitely recommend her professional, yet affordable, services!!
I cannot thank Alicia enough for such an amazing job she did for us. From the moment we met her we fell in love with her and she kept our mind at ease through every stressful situa...
tion of wedding planning. She also has such a great relationship with some of the best vendors on Oahu and with it came quite a bit of freebies and vendors going the extra mile to please her and us. I couldn't have imagined the whole process of planning and the actual day of the wedding without her being there right alongside us. She is worth every penny and more.
The wedding day itself went so smoothly without any hiccups and she made it easy for my wife and I to enjoy our big day and not worry about all the little stuff. Alicia even handcrafted all of the awesome signs and decorations throughout the venue and the overall design and ambiance was exactly what we were going for. She got excited about our ideas with us and helped to create them.
Hire this lady! She is so amazing and you won't regret it. Good luck locking her up though, she's making a name for herself.
Thanks, Alicia! We want to get married again and you'll be getting a phone call. That's for damn sure.
As cliche as the above sounds, seriously- book them!
Because we were having a small wedding less than 30 people, I thought I would be the bride of all brides and organize everyt...
hing myself. NOPE.
So happy I decided on M.E.H. Alicia and Jen were amazing from day 1. Great communication (Skype, email), provided a vendor list, arranged all the rentals... even ironed my napkins! Every detail was perfect!
Great price for all the services! Thank you girls!
(Destination wedding in Oahu, organized from abroad)
After lots of exhaustive research through the internet my wife decided on Milestone Events Hawaii to be our wedding planner at our recent wedding in Hawaii. We engaged Alicia and h...
er team with her full service offering and they were worth absolutely every single $! Initially we communicated with Alicia via email and Skype from Australia, there is no way we could have planned the wedding on our own from such a distance. Straight away we loved Alicia's attitude and she always listened to our wants and wishes whilst providing ideas that we hadn't thought of. Alicia provided constant updates and timelines in the lead up and communicated directly with the other vendors we chose (Caterer, Music, Cake, Rentals, Photography/Videography, flowers, Ceremony venue) to ensure everyone was working as a team. Once we arrived in Hawaii we met with Jen to finalise the actual day and she had all bases covered. The actual day of our wedding and reception was genuinely absolute perfection. Jen and Alicia did an amazing job of setting up both venues and ensured that my wife and I had to worry about nothing during our special day, they made it run like clock work, we could not have been happier! In short I can't recommended Alicia, Jen and Milestone Events Hawaii enough. They were an absolute dream to work with, nothing was a problem for them and they genuinely cared ensuring our special day was the best it could be. You will not be disappointed in the level of service and attention to detail through out the planning process and the day itself. 10/10
Alicia is AMAZING! She truly has a passion and knows her niche on the island. She is very personable, prompt, organized which is everything my husband and I wanted. Our day went pe...
rfectly and I owe it all to this girl. If you can fit it into your budget Alicia is worth every penny.
I cannot write enough positive reviews for Alicia with Milestone Events! She literally turned my dream wedding into a reality. We planned our May 2013 wedding from the mainland, an...
d throughout our wedding planning process, she went above and beyond (a thousand times) for us. From phone calls, to emails and then sit-downs in person when we were visiting Hawaii, she was amazing. Honest, warm and beyond dedicated, Alicia is the only reason our wedding turned out the way that it did. She understood what was important to us, and she made those things a priority. All of the details (including coordinating with all my vendors and troubleshooting problems on the day of the wedding) would have been a nightmare, but Alicia took care of everything. I am so honored that I got the chance to work with her.
Alicia Hollinger is a godsend! I am a party planner myself and Alicia was everything I could ask for. She kept us on track and on time. Her brilliant added ideas to make out decor ...
pop were fantastic. Alicia was organized and fun! A package I love. I felt like she had our best interests as Bride and Groom at heart. She was hired as our wedding coordinator, but quickly became our friend. If you are looking for someone who knows the island, knows vendors, and is creative and detailed look no further!
Wow. I don't know where to start. First off, I'm the groom, so maybe there's a different perspective on this. I'll try and be brief as well. My wife and I agreed to have a small we...
dding to keep it simple and less expensive. Impossible. I was completely against hiring a wedding planner. I thought they were for rich people having huge weddings. I am a smart guy though and I gave in and hiring Alicia was literally the best decision we made through the entire process. I would always go to weddings where I knew the both sides of the families extensively and wonder who is that person that the bride and groom are SO close with? It was their wedding planner. And now I understand why. I could tell you how the DJ showed up with NO music for the ceremony (seriously.. a DJ with no music) and how she had our songs memorizes and downloaded them ON A BOAT on the way to the island and saved the entire ceremony.. Or I could tell you how I feel. A) I consider her a new good friend. A better friend than some of the old good friends. B) I feel like I can call her in 2 or 3 years, tell her that I have no idea what to get Christine for her birthday or anniversary, and she'd probably pull 5 incredible gift ideas out of her head in 2 minutes. She is that in tune with her clients, and that thoughtful. I'm sure there are other great wedding planners in Oahu, but I'd bet my surfboard collection Alicia is by far the best.
Enjoy your wedding, use the best planner possible.
Aloha.
Alicia and her staff were truly amazing! She helped to transform the idea and style of our wedding day into a personal, intimate event that was exactly what we wanted, and within ...
our budget! She has vision for the details and the drive and execution to ensure that every box is checked. She made us feel taken care of and confident in her that allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our big day! Alicia and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with and the best investment in our wedding day. I couldn't have been happier with her service!
Quite possibly the person that tied together every vision I had for my wedding was my coordinator, Alicia Hollinger. Alicia was organized, attentive and made me feel like my weddin...
g was extremely important to her. Alicia was able to take my visions for this wedding and turn them into an event that was more than I could have dreamed of. Before I could even ask for something, it was already done, and done absolutely perfectly. Alicia gave me peace of mind for a destination wedding, and left me feeling relaxed and at ease on my wedding day. Knowing that Alicia had everything handled helped to make my wedding day even better than I could have imagined. I recommend that anyone looking to have a hassle free no stress wedding go with Alicia at Milestone Events. I promise this decision will be incredibly worth it. Thank you Alicia!! :)
Alicia was awesome! She was an incredibly organized wedding planner and her smile and bubbly personality helped to keep everyone in a good space. Alicia has a lot of connections wi...
th other local vendors and was able to coordinate great rental items at a price that was affordable for us. My husband and I each had surprises planned for the Reception, and Alicia was able to coordinate the timing of everything so that it worked out. I was so happy that we could leave our wedding that night without a worry that everything would be taken care of. That peace of mind and minimized stress throughout the planning process through the wedding itself was priceless. Thanks Alicia!
Planning a wedding in another state (especially when it's an island) is not the easiest thing in the world, but with the help of Alicia I had no stress my entire wedding experience...
. She was incredible! I could ask her any question and even if she didnt know the answer right away she would always get right back to me. Having Alicia involved in my wedding was the best investment that I made for the whole wedding. She was the reason that my visions came to life
