Amazing Wedding Planners!

My wedding day was PERFECT because of Cherished in Hawaii Weddings. I was led step by step through the planning process, and everything was covered, including a million tiny details I may not have thought of without them. They coordinated all of our vendors and my day was so smooth and stress free knowing that all of my decisions had been made and that Leah and her team had gotten to know me and my vision so well that if any issues were to come up, I knew they would make the exact right decisions for us. I cannot stress enough that you NEED a wedding planner...and Cherished in Hawaii Weddings is my #1 recommendation!

CIHW is the Best Team!

There truly aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are for Jayvee, Leah, Chiara, and the entire Cherished in Hawaiʻi Weddings team.
From the very beginning, they were attentive, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our dream wedding come to life. They took the time to understand our vision, respected our budget, and guided us every step of the way with patience, professionalism, and so much heart.

Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and on our wedding day everything flowed so seamlessly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing. The day was even more beautiful than we had imagined, and that’s all because of the incredible work they put into making our vision a reality.

What meant the most to us was how much they truly cared. We never felt like just another client—they treated us like family and celebrated every milestone with us throughout the planning process.
If you’re looking for a wedding planning team that is organized, creative, compassionate, and dedicated to making your dream wedding a reality, look no further than Cherished in Hawaiʻi Weddings.
Chris and I couldn’t have chosen a better team, and we will be forever grateful for everything Jayvee, Leah, Chiara, and the entire Cherished in Hawaiʻi Weddings family did for us. They gave us memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives.

Mahalo for making our dream wedding come true! 🌺🤍💍

They really put in the extra mile to make your wedding day perfect, and we received so many compliments from our guests on how smoothly our wedding went, and how on top of it the entire CIHW team was. There were more team members than we expected on the day of, which was a pleasant surprise! Because of all the planning and meetings we had with CIHW leading to the wedding day, we truly felt at ease at our wedding and didn't have to worry about anything. We highly recommend working with Cherished in Hawaii Weddings if you're planning a wedding in Hawaii, they'll take good care of you! Thank you CIHW team for everything :)!

I truly couldn’t recommend them more!

From the moment I reached out to them a year before my April wedding, I knew I was in good hands. We chose the partial planning package, and the level of care, communication, and attention to detail we received felt above and beyond.

Jayvee, Chiara, Elena, and Mina were absolutely incredible. They responded to emails promptly, walked us through every detail during planning meetings, and truly listened to what I wanted -elegant and simple. On the big day, they brought that vision to life flawlessly. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. They handled everything with calm professionalism and kindness.

One moment I’ll never forget was when I realized I had forgotten my veil, and the venue was ready to start the ceremony without it. Even after I expressed that I really wanted to wait, they pushed to begin on time. I was feeling pretty heartbroken at the thought of walking down the aisle without something that felt so special to me. Jayvee stepped in and advocated for me without hesitation -she firmly and graciously pushed back multiple times, insisting that we wait. Thanks to her, we delayed the ceremony about 20 minutes until the veil arrived, and I got to walk down the aisle with my veil! I’m forever grateful for that moment.

We also had a transportation issue less than a month before the wedding when the shuttle company we had originally booked suddenly bailed on us. It was a stressful moment, but Cherished stepped in immediately, found a reliable replacement, and handled all the coordination.

The entire day flowed beautifully, from ceremony to reception, and I received so many compliments from our guests about how stunning and seamless everything felt.

Thanks to The Cherished in Hawaii Weddings Team, I was able to be fully present and soak in every moment of the most beautiful day I could have imagined. Mahalo Cherished!

Highly recommend!!

Cherished in Hawaii were truly incredible. My wife and I are from New Jersey and picking a great wedding planner was imperative. We could not ask for anyone better to work with. They were super accommodating and made us feel at ease dealing with such a big event so far away. I would recommend them to anyone getting married in Hawaii! 10/10 truly made our wedding week one to remember forever.

Highly recommend

To be honest, I was quite skeptical at first as I have heard many horror stories pertaining to hiring wedding coordinators. This was not the case. Jayvee and team went above and beyond on our special day and ensured us that the event went smoothly. I cannot thank you guys enough for your creativity and your efforts for making us enjoy our wedding. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND their services to any couple who are planning to tie the knot in Hawaii. Expect referrals from our network within Canada.

Highly recommend!


Our destination wedding day on Oahu was nothing short of perfection, and we owe so much of that to Mina, Allison, and Jayvee. From the initial consultation to the last dance, CIHW demonstrated exceptional attention to detail and organizational process. They flawlessly executed our vision, turning dreams into reality. Their calming presence and expert coordination ensured a stress-free celebration for us and our guests. Our wedding guests kept telling us it was one of the most beautiful and best weddings they have ever been to. One of the things that we were most concerned was keeping within our floral budget without compromising on our vision for the wedding. CIHW was able to help us with this and we were so impressed with how they were able to make it work within our floral budget. If you're looking for a wedding planner who goes above and beyond to make your day truly special, look no further than CIHW. We are so grateful for their expertise and highly recommend their services!

Friendly, Professional, & Organized!

Cherished in Hawaii Weddings did an amazing job as my day-of coordinator! One thing I really appreciated is that we were able to rehearse my ceremony enough times and go through it with more detail and as a quick walk through. Everyone on my bridal party felt confident that they knew exactly what they were doing, what was being said, and at what time. CIHW also did an amazing job overseeing my reception and I'm so glad I got to work with them. Thank you CIHW!!
