Simple Kona Beach Weddings

Becky at Simply Kona Beach weddings was amazing! She immediately de-stressed me when we signed up with her 1 year prior to our wedding date. She listened to everything we wanted which was not a typical wedding reception but a fun multi-day trip for our group. She also helped us find everything we wanted - hotel, casual venues, nice sunset dinner, photographers, concierge for a sailing ⛵️trip , hair/makeup options. The works. She married us in the most intimate, special Hawaiian ceremony on a beautiful beach. It was spiritual in its own way and much more memorable than I was expecting. Her husband took my phone during the ceremony and gave me back about 200 photos on my phone - many of which were AMAZING and so wonderful to have immediately following the ceremony. Highly highly recommend.

We recently renewed our vows while on vacation on the Big Island, and Becky delivered the perfect experience for us. She was helpful, thorough, communicative, and crafted a simple, beautiful and unforgettable ceremony. Couldn’t have been easier. Professional and personable, we highly recommend her!

If you're looking to get married or do a vow renewal, or even a family party of any kind, Becky and Simple Kona Beach Weddings are your best friend. She is with you every step of the way, she keeps everything organized, she will answer all of your questions even if you've already asked her a million times. She has all the insider knowledge and goes above and beyond to make your celebration unique to you. She is prompt, organized, thorough, detailed, kind, flexible - everything. She is worth every penny and will bring you peace of mind.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Becky and Simple Kona Beach Weddings. Becky was organized, thorough, attentive, and did everything to make our special day perfect and completely stress free. But, more than that, it was like we were getting married by an old friend. As soon as we met Becky and her husband, Matt, in person right before the wedding, it was like we knew them forever. They have such a great vibe! I wholeheartedly recommend Becky! Book her, trust me, you won't be disappointed.

Becky and her husband helped make our ceremony so special! We only had about a week and a half to plan, and she picked the perfect spot close to where we were staying. Luckily Valentine's Day was available, and we had a beautiful ceremony in the morning as we had plans that evening. It was the perfect way to begin our day and our marriage.

I'm not sure there are enough words to describe how wonderful Becky is!! From the moment we met her, we connected. She made our wedding stress free from start to finish! The ceremony was nothing less than perfect and exactly what we wanted. It was intimate and romantic. Her husband Matt was just as wonderful and helpful. We truly can't praise them enough. We consider them family! I would highly recommend hiring Becky for your wedding. She is truly wonderful and very professional.

BECKY IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I never imagined out wedding day to be completely stress free but she made it just that! We told her what we wanted and she got it exactly right. Her client portal for recommendations on everything was a great tool as well. If you are thinking of getting married in Hawaii use Becky and you will not be disappointed. <3 Thank you Becky!

Becky was outstanding as we planned our Big Island wedding from Texas. Between the pandemic, time/location disparity, unexpected financial issues, and other personal factors (e.g., I was recently diagnosed with a severe heart condition that impacts daily functioning), we could not have planned our wedding without her constant assistance, reassurance, flexibility, compassion, and understanding. On the wedding day, my hair & makeup artist did not have basic equipment (e.g., a hairdryer) at her salon, overtly criticized and refused to execute any portion of the hairstyle and makeup I had requested (and she had promised) both a year and month in advance via provided pictures, and spent the entire time talking about insane conspiracy theories, such as the tragic Uvalde Elementary School shooting having been staged, a la Alex Jones. She never brought me a glass of water despite my asking three hours earlier upon arrival, asked about my wedding or partner, and then did not help me get dressed; I had to get myself into my gown and veil alone, which resulted in my shoes breaking, veil ripping, shapewear prominently displayed through the gown, and a big cut on my finger that was bleeding everywhere, with blood spatter even on the bodice of my gown. She then sent me outdoors, bleeding, barefoot, and crying, to wait for my groom (and over an hour late for my own ceremony). Thus, immediately prior to marrying my spouse, I was the complete antithesis of how I had pictured myself looking/feeling since childhood. (Spending $600 to look worse than I do on a routine basis while hearing disrespectful babble about murdered children was not how I envisioned my wedding day, or any hair/makeup session outside of a reality show on a fringe conspiracy network). However, whenever I arrived late for my own wedding, bleeding, hobbling, dizzy from dehydration and heat due to my heart condition and lack of water, looking and feeling visibly upset, Becky immediately smoothed things over by somehow fixing my shoe to enable me to walk down the beach, wrapping my bleeding finger in bandages, and telling me I looked beautiful, despite not feeling that way. Her presence is very comforting and authentic, and she genuinely cares about how you and your spouse feel emotionally and mentally. She also executes beautiful, detailed, and highly personalized ceremonies, even though she was admittedly not given much to work with on our end due to having a wedding party that went from 30 RSVPS to 0 over the course of a year. Becky changed our ceremony from a wedding to an elopement without any problems, and her husband further graciously videotaped the entire ceremony, so we were able to livestream it for friends and family back home. In light of the foregoing, I cannot recommend Becky more highly to any engaged couple, ESPECIALLY if/when the unexpected occurs. Both the Big Island and Becky are rare gems; your time spent in her care will yield breathtaking memories.

Where do I even begin! Planning a destination wedding is stressful and intimidating to say the least. Working with Becky completely took that factor away. She works with the best & most reliable vendors in the area to ensure a seamless process and wedding day. You can really feel the love and care she gives to her couples, It shines through 1000%. Becky's responsiveness always makes you feel at ease and confident. We feel very lucky to have worked with her and are so very grateful for how well she took care of us and our family!

Becky is an absolute rock star! If you are looking for a simple, laidback dreamy beach wedding then she is your gal. From day one Becky's communication, kindness and knowledge was what sold us on using her to help plan our little ceremony. She is a joy to talk with and really takes the time to listen on what you imagine the big day feeling & looking like. We decided to go with the "No brainer" option and I'm so glad we did! She literally took care of everything! She offers options/ideas on venues, floral designs, glam, photographer's, dinner reservations. etc. Her husband Matt was a bonus we were not expecting! He look all sorts of candid photos of our small circus ( our beautiful 5 kiddos ) He has a way of keeping everyone calm and smiling. I could go on and on with how picture perfect our day was. At the end of the day I highly highly recommend reaching to to Becky if you are looking for an intimate beach wedding including beautiful Hawaiian traditions. I cannot wait to renew our vows with Becky in the future.

Becky was absolutely amazing! We were lucky to find her to help plan our somewhat last-minute destination wedding in Hawaii. We could tell from our very first Zoom call with her, how much her heart is in this work and that she genuinely cared about us as a couple. She was so organized and on top of every detail. I didn't worry for one-minute about anything ... she handled it ALL, from picking a location, securing the beach permit, connecting us with the marriage license official, ordering leis, designing my bouquet, recommending the photographer and hair and makeup artist, and booking a ukulele player. Becky even helped us with suggestions for dinner on our wedding night and other activities while we were there. The ceremony itself was beautiful and all we could ever have wished for. It was the perfect blend of Hawaiian tradition with touches that were personal to us, like incorporating my teenage sons into the wedding. Getting hitched went off without a hitch! I highly recommend Becky!

Becky is a stellar wedding planner and officiant! We spent about a week trying to do our own research / planning before we gave up and looked for a planner. What we found was that the research we had completed / options we had decided on, aligned with the suggestions provided by Becky. So save yourself some time and stress and just start here. Becky knew all the best spots / had contacts and relationships with the top venues and service providers, she was responsive and attentive, gave simple understandable instructions, and was accommodating to our requests. She sent us reminders for everything to ensure we were on track, and her husband took great photos and videos at the same time with our phones/go pro on top of the photographer we hired through Becky. The ceremony itself was beautiful, the guests enjoyed it as much as the beach sunset in the background - it was the best wedding we've ever been to, but we may be biased :)

Becky was incredible to work with. We got married on 2.22.22, but started planning with her in August. She was amazing on the communication front and very prompt in following-up when needed. Planning a wedding from the mainland felt super stressful at first, but Becky really eased our anxiety. Our ceremony turned out beautiful thanks to her!

I got married on 12.01.21, from the beginning Becky was so kind, personable, and quick to respond to any questions we had. She even went out of her way to help us with planning our reception later on in the week, which was totally above and beyond. If you are looking for something small, but elegant at an affordable price AND to save yourself the headache of planning a million things for your wedding, definitely go with Simple Kona Beach Weddings. Becky is the best, and she did an amazing job officiating the wedding!

I'm a teacher, a mom, so for me, planning for a life event is stressful-- Becky made it easy. She was immediately responsive to my inquiries at the outset (which is one of the reasons I actually decided to go with her as opposed to another wedding vendor I had been considering); she put my husband-to-be and I at ease, continued to communicate and update us regularly and made extremely helpful recommendations. Our first meeting laid the groundwork; it was our getting to know each other meeting and info on what we might expect in getting married in Hawaii, especially during Covid. When we were done with the Zoom, we knew we would be taken care of. Becky didn't disappointment; from decorations, to marriage license, to location and then events we wanted to plan after the ceremony, Becky was on it. She met us the night before our wedding, guided us to the location, which was a bit tricky to find, so I am glad we did it the night before. She walked us through the ceremony. The day of, the weather was beautiful, and the decorations fit so well, even with the flower selection being a bit limited since we married in November. The heart and flower pathway were amazing. I was nervous during the ceremony, and she simply encouraged us to be ourselves. When I sincerely say, our wedding was magical-- it was. Thank you Becky.

Becky & her husband make the best team ever! She went above and beyond to help us not only plan the wedding ceremony but also gave us helpful tips on planning our first trip to Hawaii. Very sweet, made us feel super comfortable, and had tons of fun on our special day! Super happy with our decision to have our wedding in paradise with the the help of Becky & her husband! Our families had fun too! Becky’s husband also went out of his way to capture photos that make great social media content! I want to do it all over again!! Thank you Becky for everything 😍

WOW! Becky was such a life saver! There was a moment when we really thought we were not going to make our elopement happen in Hawaii... Our original officiant made me feel terribly uncomfortable and made us feel like we weren’t worth the effort. Becky restored all faith and made us excited again! These are crazy times and things are definitely more difficult but she was so flexible and truly thought of everything. If you and your partner end up needing to do a virtual ceremony, just know that she makes it feel so natural and like she’s there in person. You won’t regret it one bit. We can not recommend her enough. Thank you SO much Becky!🖤

Planning our wedding with Simple Kona Beach Weddings was all we dreamed of and more! Becky is an absolute joy to work with from the small to large details. She allowed us to feel comfortable, at ease and excited to celebrate our love in Hawaii and take a leap of faith with a destination wedding. Becky is enthaustic, fun, thorough, and full of excellent advice and recommendations. Dennis and I, as well as all our family, were blown away by the beauty of the ceremony, location, flowers, and experience created! We are so grateful for you Becky and cannot wait to be back in Hawaii again!

I planned my wedding on 04.03.2020 and just a week before the wedding, COVID shut down everything. Becky was extremely responsive with keeping me up-to-date on all the restrictions and requirements to travel to Hawaii. We decided to reschedule for 04.03.2021. Becky stayed in communication with me and my now husband for the whole year. She was and still is absolutely amazing. I felt like I didn't have to lift a finger to do anything on my wedding day except show up. She provided an amazing list of resources and vendors. All of which were amazing. On our wedding day, Becky's ceremony was so meaningful and beautiful. Her husband, Matt, took candid photos of our big day and he was so much fun to work with. He definitely made us laugh and smile in all of our photos. I don't know if Becky knows it, but she is one of those people who shared a very special moment with us, and she will forever be a part of our life. If you want your special day to be perfect, Becky can make it happen! She is incredible at what she does and she thinks of EVERYTHING...I mean everything! Thank you for making our special day perfect!

Becky was a joy to work with! Planning a wedding during a pandemic was not easy but Becky made sure we were taken care of. From providing traveling regulation updates to keeping us cool and collected that one time we thought COVID was going to cause us to cancel our wedding. She got on the phone with us and reassured us that we had options for all scenarios! We greatly enjoyed our ceremony and the musician that Becky hired for it. A day to remember for sure!

Becky made our last minute ceremony a wonderful experience ! We gave her 3 days notice and she made it perfect! Everything was gorgeous and full of special elements that made us both cry. The photographer she recommended was exactly what we were hoping to capture our special day. We can’t imagine anyone choosing someone else! Becky and Matt are the real deal!!

This review is long over due! Today we’re celebrating our 2nd anniversary and were fortunate enough to be married in Hawaii and have Becky from Simple Kona Beach Weddings plan it all! As it was a destination wedding, it just wouldn’t have come together the way it did without having Becky doing her magic behind the scenes. The day was perfect and went so smoothly thanks to Becky checking and double checking everything we needed to make our day special and memorable! We didn’t have to worry about a thing but enjoy our beautiful day and the six close friends that joined us. Thank you Becky from the bottom of our hearts, we would highly recommend you to anyone looking to get married in the spectacular setting of Hawaii 💕🍾🥂

Becky made my special day the VERY BEST that I could've hoped for! I was very nervous and I pretty much waited until the last minute to handle everything. She literally soothed my frazzled nerves and provided my fiancé and me' with everything we needed before we even arrived, and once we arrived onto the Island she ensured everything was streamlined and in order. She didn't miss a beat!! She had all of the resources needed -- from an AWESOME makeup artist (Kassie), photographer (Hannah), to where to go for final marriage licensing signing. She even files your license for you!! Once our special day arrived, her ceremony literally brought tears to my eyes. It was just so beautiful... words cannot express... From the serene ocean ritual, her loving and warm words during the ceremony that were genuinely from the heart made my wedding day so memorable and filled with love. As nervous and unorganized as I was, Becky made my day PERFECT!!! I can't thank her and her awesome husband, Matt, enough!!! Becky was a Godsend!! She's the BEST at what she does, hand down!!! Aloha!!

Married the love of my life in the most beautiful place on earth. When we decided to get married in Hawaii, I was little nervous about all the detail without being there in person. After talking to Becky, I knew she was the one to handle all the details. I picked out and told her want I wanted my day to be like and she delivered it all and MORE! After everything was set I never had another concern. She was very organized and helpful. Becky and her husband Matt customizes everything to our needs and our day was amazing and unforgettable. She even called the night before and sent pictures of all her dresses for me to pick which one she would wear that would look best with what we were wearing. She is not only amazing at her business but a truly wonderful person. Thank you Becky for creating the best day of our life.

This review is long overdue! My wife and I just celebrated our first year of marriage, our wedding is one of my fondest memories. From the start Becky was knowledgeable and attentive. She promptly got back to me when I had questions or would make changes (and looking over our e-mails I saw that I made quite a few) Every step of the way she made us feel at ease and cared for. She married us 10/10/18 on Kukio beach at sunset. Throughout the ceremony she had a beautiful explanation of each representation of the commitment my wife and I were making to one another. Her words were warm, eloquent, and truly lovely. After the ceremony we had another meaningful moment in mind—a way for my mother-in-law to be there with us, and honor her wish of a piece of her remaining in Hawaii forever. We can’t express enough gratitude for the extra time and care you took with us. Our wedding is somehow even more beautiful today in my mind’s eye, it was the perfect first step in our marriage.

OMG. Becky was fantastic. When I hired Becky for my wedding on the Big Island I had certain expectations. I was nervous because I live in Florida and had never been to Hawaii. Planing every detail from so far seemed a little overwhelming. Becky was so informative and made everything seem easy. She helped with recommendations on the florist, hair and makeup, photography, venues, restaurants, and even took care of the special permit needed for the beach location we choose. However, it was the ceremony itself that really blew me away. She did such a great job. She made it so personal and special for us. Hiring her to officiate our wedding was by far our best decision.

We are so grateful that we found Simple Kona Beach weddings to plan and conduct our wedding. We truly wanted a simple, but meaningful event, and what Becky put together for us was really so perfect, meaningful, and wonderful--beyond what we had imagined our day to be. Becky was very friendly and professional and from our first contact with her via e-mail, she put us at ease. Becky's clear communications paved the way for a perfect day. She really listened to us and what we were looking for to tailor our ceremony just for us. Our ceremony took place on a beautiful beach on lava rock. The setting was spectacular. Becky's husband Matt helped with photos and added in a lot of fun and humor to our day. Everything Becky said and brought to the ceremony based on respect for the Hawaiian culture and tradition, provided such a meaningful ceremony beyond anything we had expected.

Becky was nothing but amazing! We hardly gave more than a months notice and she had everything we could possibly need ready to go. She offers wonderful client resources & will make sure everything is set and ready to go for your special day. My husband and I felt so comfortable and completely resonated with everything said during our ceremony. Nothing short of incredible, thank you so much Becky!

We contacted Becky with Simple Kona Beach weddings 45 days before our arrival on the Big Island. Becky was very friendly and professional and put us at ease during the entire planning process. She covered all of the options and details we would need to decide on prior to our arrival on island. (Marriage license, ceremony location, choice of leis, wedding vows, photo package, etc). Becky was very thorough in covering all pre-ceremony details. Once we arrived we asked to meet with Becky to briefly make our introductions and lay eyes on the beach where the ceremony would take place. Again, Becky was very gracious when we met with her and was flexible in making minor adjustments to our requests. On the day of the ceremony Becky sent us a personalized text letting us know she was available if we had any last minute needs. This was a great touch as we each had a few minor "wedding day jitters". At the ceremony we met Becky and her husband Matt at the beach location. It was nice getting to know them pre-ceremony and it put both of us at ease. The ceremony was very professional, romantic and tasteful. Interspersed with what we were expecting in a traditional wedding ceremony were some Hawaiian cultural traditions which really helped to memorialize our very special occasion. Matt did an outstanding job with our photos, Becky later sent us several photos that she herself had taken post ceremony and overall they exceeded our expectations on so many levels and we truly appreciate their attention to detail. Nancy and Jeff "Frank"

Becky is a fantastic wedding officiator and planner! We were very pleased we chose to have her officiate our wedding on the Big Island. First of all she really knows the best beaches and other locations to hold a perfect ceremony. We arrived and met at our chosen location and Becky walked around with us showing us advantages and disadvantages of beach spots. She thinks of things we wouldn't have. Angle of the sun in accordance with photography angles, noise from beach goers, view points for guests to easily watch us and comfortable place for us to stand. She was flexible to work with and has a great personality with just the right amount of patience, fun, assertiveness and professionalism. She was also an excellent communicator. We felt like we were in good hands long before getting to the island. We chose a traditional sort of Hawaiian island ceremony which she did a super job describing what and why as we went through it. It made it that much more special. For just a small fee extra we were able to hire her husband to use our phone and take many more pictures and video the ceremony. He too has a funny and outgoing personality and was a great addition to the ceremony. In closing we definitely recommend Becky. You will be glad you chose her too! Sanja and Travis

We would highly recommend Becky to perform a wedding if you plan on marrying on the big island. We were sailing on Norwegian’s Pride ship which made a stop in Kona. We were attracted to the beauty of this area and thought it would be a perfect place to say, I do! After a google search we started working with Becky. She had us at Aloha! She never went very long without getting back with me. She made the process simple with recommendations to restaurants, flowers, photographers and even ukulele players! Our day was easy, amazing, and organized. Can’t say enough about how wonderful everything went! ❤️

Becky made our wedding perfect and just what we wanted. She was extremely helpful throughout the whole process and got back with us very quickly with any questions we had. She is a really great person and you can tell she loves what she does!

I could not have asked for a more perfect wedding day... Simple, stress-free, and FUN! Becky was very responsive from beginning to end. She answered every one of my questions and made sure all the intricacies during the ceremony were taken care of so we did not have to worry about set-up. If you want to enjoy a beach-style destination wedding, Becky Ringler is THE person you need to contact. Choosing Simple Kona Beach Weddings was the best decision I made this year, second to the choice of marrying the love of my life. ❤️

Weddings can be stressful. Try pulling a wedding off in 3 weeks!! We weren’t even sure that our chosen date would even be available. We came across this beautiful website called “SIMPLE KONA BEACH WEDDINGS”, so we contacted the company. To our surprise, Becky was in touch with us almost immediately, and YES, the date we wanted, was open. Her website is one of the best I’ve seen! She lays it all out for you, and we were thrilled to have found her. We had a simple beach wedding, and fortunately, the rain held off, till right at the end of the ceremony. Leave it to us, to plan a wedding when there’s two hurricanes about to hit the islands, but it couldn’t have worked out and better! All of us was soaked by the time we made it back to the vehicles, and laughing like crazy! THANK YOU Becky and Matt

My fiance (now husband) wanted to run away and elope in Hawaii after the stress from planning a wedding. We did some research and found Becky at Simple Kona Beach Weddings and could not be happier that we did. Becky asked a few simple questions and then took care of everything. She completely took the stress out of planning a wedding and made our day incredible. Becky and her husband Matt were so fun to work with and we could not recommend them enough.

Becky, owner and operator of Simple Kona Beach Weddings, did an awesome job and made our wedding to a very special, beautiful and memorable event! We are still heavily smiling when we think about our big day and looking at the beautiful pictures at the stunning Kona beach. From the first contact on, later via calls and emails during the preparation phase and finally face-to-face in Kona, Becky was always very interested in our wishes and needs, had always very considerative recommendations and she was always relaxed and super nice. Traveling from Europe, it was crucial for us that the wedding planner takes care of all items around our wedding. We wanted a simple beach wedding, but still it is a once in a lifetime event and should be something special. And this is exactly what Beckyś service stands for! In a very professional and well organized manner, Becky provided us with a real No-brainer package, we only needed to show up at the beach and smile. The whole ceremony was just awesome; Becky used well chosen, beautiful words, arranged amazing colorful flowers, perfectly made leis and prepared exactly the tropical flower bucket, we asked for. She advised a very talented and passionate photographer. She further arranged a delicious picnic and organized a very good and funny ukulele player. So, everything we asked for was there, and all items were even better than we would have ever imagined. Becky and the whole team around Simple Kona Beach Weddings welcomed us in such a warm and friendly manner, that we felt like among friends, even though we traveled alone to Hawaii. Additionally, it is worthwhile to mention, that Becky provided several very good recommendations for restaurants, assisted us with the marriage license arrangements and via her network we could book some great activities. So as said, everything was just awesome and we can only highly recommend Simple Kona Beach Weddings to every couple, who is looking for a simple beach wedding with a unique and personalized touch.

When my fiancé (now husband) proposed to me I immediately started thinking of the wedding I have always wanted. My toes in the sand and the sound of the ocean in the background… With each of us being raised on opposite sides of the country (Maryland and Arizona,) a wedding in either location meant travel & costly expenses for many of our family members. We decided that we were going to have the wedding we wanted, and it was ok if our family could not attend. We wanted something beautiful, yet simple. Becky with Simple Kona Beach Weddings was the perfect choice. She was very attentive and always communicated. She promptly responded to emails and once we got to the island, and met her, I knew that this would be the wedding that I had always dreamt about. She was absolutely the right person to make my dream come true. We went with the “No Brainer” package and choose Hannah C as our photographer (she was just as amazing as well, our “sneak peek” of our photo package is awesome. I can’t wait to see the rest of the pictures!) Our ukulele player was phenomenal, Becky had asked us if we had any recommendations on song choices and we did not give any (even though my husband had sent me the “Guava Jelly” song and jokingly said it was our wedding song,) we never actually requested it, and he played it!! It was meant to be! Becky’s ceremony, her blessings, Matt (Becky’s Husband) taking tons of photos, Hannah C, the Musician (sorry, I did not get his name) & and the beautiful sunset in Kona made this evening something that we will always cherish.

Putting your trust in a complete stranger, on the other side of the world for one of the biggest days of your life was nerve-racking to say the least, but after chatting to Becky over both email and phone calls on WhatsApp, I knew that we were in good hands. She was happy to find out information for me and respond very quickly so I wasn’t hanging out for an answer. Working with Becky was a lovely and stress-free experience. The flowers provided were absolutely beautiful and smelt divine and I also had a haku made which really made it special. The spot that Becky chose was picture perfect and more than I could ever dream of (and definitely nothing like it in Australia!). Becky organised all the paperwork that we needed and guided us through the application process. She also sorted out the beach passes that we needed for the day and provided maps and directions on how to get there which were incredibly helpful for people not from Hawai’i. Matt was also great and took a tonne of photos for us on my camera so we didn’t have to wait for the professional photos and were just as stunning. Becky kept the whole evening light and fun and made it incredibly special. If you’re reading this and are considering eloping, I can’t recommend using Becky enough. Even though you’re away from friends and family, it felt like they were all there and like we had known Becky and Matt a lot longer than we had and that they actually cared about us. They made our night extraordinary.

When we got engaged we decided to have a simple wedding that was as close as an elope but not quite an elopement. Simple Kona Beach weddings was perfect for us. Becky was very knowledgeable and experienced to guide us along the way. She recommended a location for is based on what we wanted a Nd it was perfect for our day when we saw it for the first time 2 days prior to us getting married. Becky took care of everything that we needed so we could have exactly as she advertises a "Simple Kona Beach Wedding". Thank you Becky and Matt for the perfect day.

The first thing I did when Ash and I got engaged was google and email a heap of wedding planners. When I read Becky’s reply I knew that we should work with her above all others. She was sincerely excited to work with us. We’re Australian, so we spent some time on Skype talking through everything. Any concerns we had about trusting a stranger on the other side of the world totally melted away. Ash and I totally embraced the no brainer package- purely because we knew we could trust Becky. I don’t say this lightly- but I wouldn’t change a single thing about our day. It was perfect. Our vows were just perfect for us as was the Ceremony. Many of our guests commented that they loved the ceremony as well. Our Lei’s and flowers were utterly stunning. I opted for a Haku as well, and it was absolutely beautiful. We worked with Dawn as our photographer (organised by Becky) who is nothing short of incredible. Becky (and Matt) stayed with us while we had photos with Dawn and took photos on their (and my) phone- we had about 400 photos sent to us after that had been taken on the phones. Becky helped me navigate the Four Seasons to book the barefoot on the beach table. We chose this based on Becky’s suggestion- IT WAS INCREDIBLE. We had the executive chef of the Four Seasons as our private chef for the evening. Everyone was full of amazing food by the end of the night. Becky is an absolute professional. Our paperwork had been submitted the night of our wedding (so we were officially official). She has an incredible sense for what will work. I seriously recommend trusting her to plan your wedding- she’s an absolutely excellent wedding planner and celebrant. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you Becky.

So, it is a bit ironic that a “stranger” was such an important figure in one of the most important days in our lives. We took a risk based on online research and reviews and hired Becky to help with our wedding in Kona. We are glad we took a risk on this stranger; what an amazing person she turned out to be. We are so thankful to have found her. Becky was very responsive, thoughtful, helpful, and all around great throughout the entire process. On our wedding day we met Becky and her husband Matt in person. Again, she (in this case, they) didn’t disappoint. Becky did a wonderful job officiating our wedding and even stayed around afterwards while we were going through our photo session (we hired one of the photographers recommend by Becky) and took several pictures of us with her phone and shared them with us later on that day (over 100 pictures). Also, Matt used one of our phones to record the ceremony; the videos turned out great. Finally, as a same sex couple we couldn’t be happier with the way we were treated. We felt comfortable and welcomed. Becky and Matt (and Josh – the photographer) truly demonstrated happiness for us. So; if you are planning a wedding in the Big Island, I strongly recommend you work with Becky, she will help you to make your day unforgettable. Becky and Matt - thank you, thank you, thank you!

OMG we cannot say enough kind words about our experience with Becky (and her husband Matt) for our wedding! I was looking for something simple, sweet, and memorable and finding Becky and her business "Simple Kona Beach Weddings" was exactly what we were looking for. It was perfect!

There are not enough kind words to describe Becky! She was wonderful to work with! Her and her husband, Matt, made our day even more perfect than we could of dreamed of. She was thoughtful and receptive to our questions and ideas and was accommodating every step of the way, she even helped us make a few changes to our vows the night before the ceremony. She made the entire process easy and Tim and I are so thankful for such a stress fee day thanks to Becky. She truly loves what she does and it comes through in every way.

Wow!! We wish we could give you more stars!! Becky and Matt, you two are the sweetest and kindest people ever! We cannot thank you enough for everything you guys have done. We couldn't be more blown away about the wonderful ceremony and the friendliness of the both of you. Seriously, it was everything we could've dreamed of and more. You two treated us just like family and we couldn't have felt any more welcome. You both made this experience very memorable. Keep doing what you guys are doing, we think it's the best. Once again, Mahalo for making our day the best day. :)

Watch out Gal Gadot, I think Becky is the real wonder woman! The thought of planning a wedding stressed me out and I just wanted to elope but I didn't because I am more scared of my mom killing me if I did that. So Becky literally saved my life! I have no clue how to plan a regular party let alone a wedding celebration! From food to flowers to photographer to music to table/chair rentals, Becky knows the best people for the job! She did EVERYTHING! She was there literally from the start when we had nothing planned until the end of the party. Then even after the party, she and her husband were the first to share the best photos!

Working with Becky was truly amazing! She is professional and so easy to deal with. She responded so quickly to me whenever I had a question, even when she was sick or on vacation! She was so knowledgeable about the island and the people she has on her service list were wonderful as well. She made our day very special by providing a beautiful and unique ceremony! She did not leave any details out and her customer service skills are outstanding. I could not be happier with her services! I totally recommend her to anyone getting married in Kona.

We chose Becky after reading reviews online because we felt she would provide a stress free, simple and beauoexperience for our wedding. Let me assure you, we made the right choice! Not only was she responsive, she walked us through the process with patience and she suggested several touches to the ceremony that we absolutely loved. We trusted her judgement since she knew the area well and everything went so amazing, even better than we all expected. Several guests came up to me and mentioned how beautiful and touching the ceremony was and what a great job Becky did. Definitely go with Becky if you want a stress free and lovely wedding!

Becky is amazing! We were running a tad behind schedule, but she wasn't phased and asked her questions in a simple and direct manner and worked to get last minute details ironed out. We had an idea of what she would be saying during the ceremony, but WOW! It was beautiful and it was like it was written especially for us. She was helpful in arranging for the leis we wanted and they were spectacular. Becky helped make our day everything we could have asked for and more!

I am a little late in getting our review posted (we were married 9/10/18), but we wanted to say how grateful we are for the beautiful wedding that Becky made possible for us! From the initial email contact and first phone call, it was evident that Becky wanted us to have the wedding that we envisioned. She was very helpful giving guidance, and very patient with all of our questions. She recommended an amazing local artist, Matt Hanato, to play and sing at our wedding. (His music was the perfect accompaniment to the beautiful scenery.) Robert Malovic was the professional photographer that took amazing pictures of our sunset wedding, and Becky's husband also took over 200 pictures that added to our memories of the special occasion! Becky made our wedding everything that we could wish for, and we feel so blessed to have had her marry us!

Becky is incredible and made our day special beyond our expectations! We were looking for a small private ceremony on a beach and Becky made the process feel easy and relaxed. She was a great communicator from the beginning: she always responded promptly and thoroughly. She was very accommodating to our requests and needs. The beach location she set up was a tropical paradise. The whole ceremony was beautiful, relaxed and unique. It truly was an experience we will forever cherish. We highly recommend working with Becky!

Too many great things to say about Becky to put into words. She performed the most beautiful ceremony and was there every step of the way if we had any questions. She responds very quickly to emails and even arranged my flowers for our wedding and they were the most beautiful arrangements I have ever seen. Every one of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the ceremony was and how Becky was the best officiant they have seen. If you are doing research on who to pick to officiate your special day, look no further there is no one else on the Big Island that comes close to how amazing Becky is.
