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!

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.

Cherished did such an amazing job! I cannot thank them enough. They executed everything perfectly on the day of. They helped with prep, planning, and even timelines to make sure everything ran smoothly.

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.

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!

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!!

Very flexible and was able to work with our tight deadlines and accommodations. Led to a magical and memorable outcome.

My wife and I highly recommend Jayvee and her team at Cherished in Hawaii Weddings to help with planning your dream wedding! The team went above and beyond to help us with ours! We wanted to have a smaller, more intimate ceremony and program with just immediate family and friends (around 30 people). The team worked with us every step of the way and maintained regular communication with us to make sure everything was ready for the big day. The coordination was top notch, from working with our external vendors (cake, signage, etc.), reducing our costs by repurposing the flowers used during the ceremony for table decorations during the program, and also letting us know anything specific that we the couple needed to provide. On the day of the wedding, everything went smoothly, even with unexpected rain. The team was able to accommodate us and move the tables to a covered setting so our guests and ourselves did not get soaked! Each and every member of the team were so welcoming and helped make our special day even better. They are all amazing at what they do! Thank you Jayvee and every member at Cherished in Hawaii Weddings for making our dream wedding come true!

CIHW did such an amazing job for our wedding! We booked them an entire year ago and they made our entire year and wedding planning process very smooth, fun, and stress-free! We mainly worked with Jayvee and Allison and they were both very professional and patient with answering all of our questions and fulfilling our needs/vision. They planned out a schedule for us and throughout the year, they checked in, helped us book our venue (they checked out the venue for us, we never saw the venue in person), vendors, design a layout and put together a very detailed timeline for our wedding day! On our wedding day, Jayvee and Allison were impeccable. The venue looked beautiful and everything was setup so nicely. Everything went according to the plan we discussed beforehand. Jayvee and Allison were attentive to all of our needs at all times, always looking ahead and checking in with us for any changes, and very prepared that they even had bandaids ready for me! Everyone had a great time and felt that the wedding went very well! We are so happy we chose CIHW, they deserve all the credit! They definitely have a lot of experience and I would 100% recommend them!

We made contact with CIHW in 2019 to plan for our wedding in the summer of 2020 not knowing that COVID would change everything. The months leading up to our planned wedding date were stressful to say the least, not only were we planning for a wedding, but we also had no certainty that the pandemic would end and when we would be able to celebrate our marriage. Plans kept getting pushed back as travel was restricted and the reality of a destination wedding became merely a dream. We did not want lose hope and we still wanted to support the wedding business in Hawaii so we kept our deposits and continued to postpone our wedding for the unforseeable future.

Meetings over zoom with Mina, Jayvee, and their staff was therapeutic in a way as they continued to give us hope and were constantly updating us about the new travel restrictions and gathering limitations that Hawaii would have. They were always positive and made us feel that our dream wedding was in reach and they would do everything they could in their power to make it happen. We decided to do Full Wedding Planning services and we do not regret it one bit. From start to finish, CIHW was available for us every step of the way.

Finally in the summer of 2022, we were able to hold our wedding with minimal COVID-19 restrictions. Jayvee and Allison were our wedding day coordinators and everything they had planned for in our wedding day timeline went as planned. If there were any hiccups in the plan, we did not even notice it because we are sure that they took care of it right away. As weddings go, we only had a few bites from our plates but they made sure we were taken care of with plenty of food and desserts from our menu to take home. We had our dream wedding go exactly how we wanted, all thanks to this tireless team of coordinators and vendors. For anyone looking for amazing and dependable wedding coordinators, we highly recommend CIHW!
