When I starting planning my wedding over a year ago, Dianna was the very first vendor I hired. I knew from the start that I wanted (and needed) a wedding planner, especially since I wasn't living back home in Hawaii, and had recently moved with my fiance to a new city. With all the life changes going on, I wanted the very best planner, and one who could handle my destination wedding. After finding HWAE in a wedding magazine, and then doing research online (including reading WW reviews!), I knew without a doubt, that Dianna was the planner I would use. Her motto of "Amazing, Fun, & Stress-Free Celebrations" was exactly what I wanted, and it is exactly what we got!

At our first meeting, I knew that hiring Dianna would be one of the best decisions we ever made. I was on the fence about whether to do the 4 month or 6 month package, so in our contract, Dianna allowed me to upgrade to the 6 month package, if I needed it. I can't tell you how wonderful it was to know from the start, that Dianna had my best interests in mind. She is also very kind, pleasant, and so easy to work with; I always enjoyed our meetings and chats.

She gave top-quality, professional service from start to finish. She was always responsive to any email or phone call, her prices were very reasonable (she is the only nationally certified planner in Hawaii, with CPCE and CMP credentials), and she was always flexible and willing to help with anything.

My wedding had a variety of challenges, including a rehearsal with a last minute venue change (due to a festival that held up traffic), coordinating with an inter-island officiant who flew in that day, the set-up of a custom-made wedding canopy, and guests who got lost en route to the ceremony! But Dianna handled everything with a calm smile, and I knew I had nothing at all to worry about.

So many of our guests commented that this was the "best wedding" they had ever been to. My family from NYC (who have been to many posh events), said that this was truly the most beautiful and enjoyable wedding they had ever attended. Not to mention, the most fun!! We had the time of our lives, in large part, due to the amazing talents of Dianna.

Much Mahalo and Warmest Aloha!!! :)
