    Essential to work with for a smooth wedding ceremony!

    My husband wanted to arrange a wedding coordinator for our intimate, family-only beach wedding. At first I didn’t see why this would be worth it. However, after just a few conversations with Haunani, it became clear how invaluable her expertise and deep local connections would be to ensure everything flowed seamlessly.

    From the very beginning, Haunani was an absolute joy to work with. She went beyond arranging the major elements like securing the photographer(who was incredibly by the way). It was her thoughtful attention to detail that truly made all the difference. I appreciated how effortlessly she managed every aspect, providing me with a sense of peace and assurance. It truly felt like she cared for our wedding as if it were her own.

    A few highlights of her exceptional service.
    -She helped us secure our wedding license appointment, saving us a second trip across the island as to not disrupt our vacation
    -Shared perspective on locations options (you don’t want to accidentally pick a beach location that requires a dirty/muddy hike to get to)
    -She made sure we had clear directions to the ceremony site, so we never worried about getting lost.
    -Haunani even arranged for backup plans in case of rain—a necessity in the Princeville area.
    -Throughout the process, she provided gentle, timely reminders to keep us on track and stress-free.

    When I think back on the deeply meaningful ceremony Haunani created for our blended family, I’m filled with gratitude and joy. She made the day truly magical, and we will forever cherish the memories.

    Mahalo, Haunani!

    Haunani at Kauai Aloha Weddings did a wonderful job planning our wedding. She’s knows what she is doing and uses great vendors. We did not have to worry about anything. Our day could not have been more perfect!

    My wife Kandis and I had thought about many settings for our wedding and we are so happy that we chose Kauai Aloha Weddings for the service. Haunani coordinated the whole event down to the smallest detail and everything was perfect! The photographer Ralph and videographer Dorrian were really great to work with and the Pastor Marde Marcos was the best! We felt like we were sharing an afternoon with good friends! We can't say enough about how happy we were with our wedding day! Thank you again, Haunani!

    A friend recommended Haunani and Mark when we were headed to Kauai and thinking about tying the knot. With only two weeks to plan the event (a very small one on Hanalei Beach!) Haunani knew just who to call and how to set everything up. The cost was reasonable and well worth the price of not having to figure out all the details, find multiple vendors, figure out all the rules, etc. Haunani and Mark were very responsive and helpful. Our wedding went perfectly and we couldn't be happier with how organized and professional it felt. Our minister, Marty, and photographer, Ralph were wonderful. They helped us feel at ease and knew just what to do!

    Our Wedding was planned for April 2018 at the height of an unprecedented month of rain and flooding in Hanalei Bay. We didn't know what we were going to do. Haunani had already been proving herself to be knowledgeable, organized, and professional throughout the year we worked with her, however her abilities were tested with almost insurmountable challenges that she had to continually deal with, right up to our wedding day. She did a remarkable job, and her husband, Mark, was an invaluable addition to her team. On the day of our wedding, it was hard to believe that Kauai Aloha Weddings had been able to coordinate our perfect wedding day! The following day we planned a picnic brunch which Haunani also managed. Sunday was wonderful as well, and the perfect ending to a very special wedding weekend. To give you a better timeline of the trifecta occurring in the Hawaiian Islands during this time, guests who arrived for their own mini-vacation, before heading home, were greeted with the eruption of Kilauea, and subsequent earthquakes on the big island of Hawaii. Thank you Haunani for all your hard work, and the added hours we know you had to put in to make our dream come true.

    My wife Debra and I were actually considering going without a wedding planner. When we realized the amount of coordination our wedding day would require it became apparent that the only way to have all our guests enjoy themselves (without delegating tasks) at our wedding and reception was to bring in a wedding planner. I can't convey enough how fortunate we were when Haunani came to our attention and was actually available on our wedding day. We came to Kauai to tie the knot and Haunani provided the string to bring everything together!
    Thank you again Haunani!
    Mahalo,

    Haunani helped us create the perfect elopment wedding and made the whole experience relaxing and stress-free! She was always quick to respond to questions via phone or email and was very accomodating with all our personal requests. She even held our infant son during the ceremony! Our experience was amazing and I would definitely recommend her services to anyone planning a wedding in Kauai!

    Haunani provided a wonderful wedding day for us! She kept me on task every day leading up to our day, from the weather to things I decided to add at the last minute. She easily accommodated us with a party of 17. The minister and photographer were also wonderful and nice to not have to worry about those details.

    My wife grown children and I came to Kauai to celebrate our 30 anniversary with a wedding vow renewal and chose Haunani Ross. What a great choice we made. Haunani made all of the arrangements from officiant to ukulele player to location. All areas she selected were home runs. The event was greater and more impactful then April and I ever imagined. Haunani, made and maintained contact before we arrived on island, met with us once we arrived and ensured our experience was a success. Keoni, the officiant was superb and include not only April and I in the ceremony, but also our children. Being of Hawaiian ancestry this meant so much to my children and their loves as well. Mark our ukulele player and singer enchanted us with his voice and the songs for John Cruz as well as Israel "Iz" Kaʻanoʻi Kamakawiwoʻole and we thank him from the bottom of our hearts. You can't go wrong choosing Kauai Aloha Weddings and Haunani Ross for you wedding or vow renewal ceremony!!!!! Mahalo nui Haunani, Mark and Keoni for giving us a memory that will definitely last a life time.900

    We were married on July 17, 2017 on Waipouli Beach on the east side of Kauai. Our wedding coordinator was Haunani Rossi at Kauai Aloha Weddings.

    We live in Texas and have been to Kauai several times, so we were familiar with the island. But we had no idea how to plan a long distance wedding. After some internet searching, we found Kauai Aloha Weddings. We learned that they are locally owned and have in business for over 25 years. After speaking to Haunani on the phone, we felt that she knew exactly what we needed.

    Haunani was extremely helpful and always responded quickly to any of our questions. We had a small wedding – just us and four friends. But Haunani made us feel very important and special.

    Haunani arranged everything for us. She guided us thru the State of Hawaii marriage license requirements, set up the appointment with the local license agent, arranged the officiant and photographer and handled the beach permit for the ceremony. We even asked her to recommend a restaurant for after the ceremony and the place that she suggested was excellent.

    The wedding officiant and photographer that Haunani used were just perfect for our ceremony. Our minister was Marde Marcus and he was just great. He has a very kind demeanor. His words about love and the meaning of aloha made our wedding feel very special. Our photographer was Ralph Nishimoto. As with most people, we were apprehensive about the photos. But Ralph made us feel very relaxed and comfortable and the photos he took turned out to be great.

    Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and we have Haunani Rossi and Kauai Aloha Weddings to thank for that!

    We loved Haunani and Mark!!! They are so nice and sweet ?? Haunani was extremely helpful and very patient. I live in San Diego, and Haunani spent a lot of time talking to me on the phone for weeks leading up to the event. She helped me with all the decor by recommending great contacts on the island, with the wedding license process and all other details that I was totally lost about when I called her for the first time. She came to our house and met with us as soon as we arrived in kauai and helped with the last decisions and including the rehearsal :)
    On the day of the ceremony, she was with us the whole time getting all the guests together and orienting me on what to do. Her husband Mark is an amazing musician and Hawaiian singer. He plays the Ukulele so so soooooo incredible. If you're thinking to have someone play ukelele at your ceremony, it has to be him!!!!! I didn't want him to stop, we loved his music! Haunani and Mark, thank you for everything!! Thank you for being so patient! We loved you guys! Everything couldn't have been more perfect ??????and you guys were a big part of that!

    Haunani & Kauai Aloha Weddings are the best! She came through on short notice after having to release our previous wedding coordinator. She met all of our needs and made arrangements for us in just a few weeks. And the most important part - she made my fiancee, now wife completely comfortable that our day would truly be what she imagined it would be. From arrangements to timing nothing was over looked and everything went off without a hitch. My only advice to you is to trust Haunani, she will deliver....I Would not hesitate to recommend her to all of our friends and family. Kudos to you Kauai Aloha Weddings!

    Haunani was AMAZING! I had a wedding coordinator 1 year prior to my wedding and 6 weeks before hand I could not get a hold of her. I then was recommended to Haunani a she literally threw the wedding of my dreams in 6 weeks. She was knowledgeable and extremely patient. She made my wedding day the best day of my life. I can't thank her enough.

    Haunani was fantastic! She made the process extremely easy for us! My husband and I married on 07/26/2016 at Na Aina Kai (per Haunani's recommendation). Haunani made our wedding everything we've always wanted. I knew I did not have to worry the day of about our vision coming to life. I trusted her completely.

    From the very beginning, Haunani was prompt and professional through email. Anytime she had a concern or question regarding my choices, she would call me for clarification. Honestly, she kinda held my hand through the whole process. I had a lot of other things going on at the time (graduate school, certification exam) and did not dedicate as much time to my wedding as some others may have. Haunani made sure that I wasn't forgetting anything. She made the cost of each item clear. Nothing was ever hidden and she would make sure to get a definitive answer from me before moving forward. The day of the wedding, everything was perfect. Literally, all of her planning was perfect. She organized my family, husband and all of the vendors she chose were fantastic. Our minister was WOW! Marde Marcus was exactly what you would want from a minister. He spoke clearly, beautifully, and every word out of his mouth about love and marriage was sincere. I'm not sure who Haunani used as our vendor for our flowers, but they were GORGEOUS. Also, Na Aina Kai has to be the most beautiful venue I have ever seen in my life. Overall, I was very blessed to have found Haunani and I don't know what I would have done without her.

    Haunani thank you so much for everything!

    We had a great experience with Haunani, planning our wedding from Texas was difficult but she helped by finding the photograher and minister. Haunani was always available when I called or emailed and was very pleasant to work with.

    Haunani was wonderful! I called 3 weeks prior to our trip to Kauai and Haunani walked me through the things I needed to take care of and she handled everything else! Haunani was very kind, extremely professional and incredibly thoughtful! Our wedding was perfect from start to finish. Thank you so much Haunani!!! I would recommend Kauai Aloha Weddings, INC to anyone and everyone thinking of getting married in Kauai!
