My husband and I chose the Aulani for my love of Disney and our mutual love of the beach and traveling. I cannot say enough good things about this experience! I never felt stressed or freaked out. We worked with Nicole Tam who was fabulous and answered every question I had no matter how many emails I sent. I highly recommend the Aulani not only for the views and ease but for the Disney experience.

Becoming a Disney Bride - Dreams Do Come True!
Once upon a time there was a little girl that dreamed of becoming a Disney Princess. Well that dream didn't come to fruition, but she did become a Disney Bride! This was all thanks to the amazing team at Aulani, A Disney Resort and Spa and their fearless leader Nicole Tam.
365 days before our October 2019 wedding, we called the Disney Fairytale Weddings team and the rest was happily ever after! Working with Nicole was a dream, she answered every question, anticipated my needs as a picky bride (and dare I say bridezilla at times) and executed a wedding even more magical than we could have ever hoped for. We can't thank Nicole and her team enough for all the blood, sweat, and tears (minus the blood and plus lots of happy tears) that was put into making our wedding the most amazing and beautiful day of our lives.

Happy Tears
From the very beginning, Nicole Tam was so helpful in providing us with information regarding holding our wedding at Aulani. She worked alongside our budget, answered my incredibly frequent emails and phone calls, and assisted as our liaison with the vendors.
There were numerous moments, of which I'm embarrassed to admit, where I was a complete disaster to work with because I found myself quite demanding and rude with Nicole. In retrospect, I could have toned it down ten notches but Nicole was wonderfully patient with me throughout the entire process. I cannot commend her professionalism enough. She's absolutely incredible.
The day of our wedding, we needed to enforce our emergency plan as it was raining and we had planned for an outdoor wedding. Within minutes, Nicole was able to contact vendors with sizing and pricing information so we could carefully consider what was the best option. And a couple of minutes after that, everything was resolved! The tent was loaded and the vendor was on their way to the venue. Nicole is amazing.
Aulani pulled off the most memorable wedding for my husband and I. Communication was always there, the staff at the resort were delightful, and the staff at our wedding were so professional.
I loved all the vendors Aulani had recommended and it was evident during our wedding why they were recommended - everyone put together the most amazing experience we could have imagined.
The photographer/videographer team (Visionari) helped out in ways that were out of their jurisdiction and were so discreet the entire night while taking the most breathtaking pictures.
Our florist (Sweet Pea & Petunia) gave us the most beautiful flowers we had ever seen at a wedding. And the for the first time ever, we witnessed flowers that lasted way past the wedding into the next morning and it still looked just as fresh! We had been observant at all recent weddings and usually flowers were wilted by reception but not Sweet Pea's!
I didn't interact with the serving staff or bartender but everyone told us they were superb and I believe it!
Thank you to everyone at Aulani for making our fairytale wedding so perfect. We could not have made a better decision to hold our wedding with your fabulous team. And most of all, thank you to Nicole Tam for dealing with this crazy bride. I am forever grateful to you.
Without any hesitation, I highly recommend holding your wedding at Aulani. You will have no regrets.
