Excellent service!

For our wedding, we had our catering, rental services, and wedding coordination through the 1979! Yarden was amazing from start to finish. I shared my Pinterest board with her and she literally made it happen, exactly how I pictured. Yarden communicated my vision perfectly with the florist. Her and Joshua brought my vision to life with the ceremony and reception set up. Our reception was so dreamy under the Hawaii mountains and string lights. The food was AMAZING! All of our guests are still telling us how much they enjoyed the food and drinks by the 1979. Yarden was so great the day of the wedding. She has a calm demeanor, which helped ease any pre-wedding jitters. She also snapped a ton of behind the scenes wedding photos, which we appreciated so much. Thank you so much Yarden, Joshua, & the 1979 team for making our wedding so effortless and perfect.

Our Dream Wedding Brought to Life

Our wedding day felt like an absolute dream, and it would not have been possible without Yarden and her lovely team. 1979Hawaii coordinated every aspect of our destination wedding. From our first virtual meeting to our last, they were very understanding and accommodating with our time differences and busy schedules. Yarden and her team are experts in their craft and will ensure that they bring your wedding vision to life. With not living in Hawaii, we were able to turn to Yarden to give helpful advice and guidance. On our wedding day, we were welcomed by Yarden and her staff, and they were very warm and friendly towards us and all of our guests. Yarden was especially attentive towards me as the bride, and was kind, helpful, and supportive. From making sure my dress was perfect for every photo to assuring our timeline ran seamlessly, I don’t know what we would have done without her and her team!

Hawaii 1979 was amazing! Yarden was so kind, caring, and professional from the start. My now husband and I only knew the venue we wanted in Hawaii. Hawaii 1979 was recommend by the venue. Neither of us had a specific vision for our wedding. Yarden was able to take the ideas and inspiration we had to make a perfect wedding day.

Yarden took care of every detail. Every step of the way Yarden and her team communicated with us and made decision making so easy. of the Planning our destination wedding was so easy and stress free. Our guests loved everything about our ceremony and reception. So many people are still complementing our wedding still.
