Happy Bride

Working with Michele and her team was such a wonderful experience! She truly is a phenomenal planner, and her service and team is absolutely incredible! I would recommend her and her team to absolutely everyone I know. She took on an estate wedding from complete scratch, including RAW land, and made the most beautiful spectacular wedding that our family and friends are still raving about. Her attention to detail, and professionalism is unparalleled. She helped with stresses that I never could have foreseen, and always stayed true to our vision. She was a shoulder to lean on, and an ear to listen through all of the ups and downs that a wedding of that magnitude brings. She really has become family after this experience, my family and I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Couture Occasions Events!!

25th Wedding Anniversary Celebration

As a male, I don't usually leave reviews, but this was exceptional! We celebrated at the location where we first met, 28 years ago...and wanted a casual, yet refined ambiance, as well as my wife included my 80th birthday! Michele provided every infinite detail of both plans, exact to our specifications...as well as gave us many helpful, intelligent and inspirational 'hints' to even better our celebration! Not only were my wife and I astounded by her professionalism, but amazed that she actually listened to our every detail! Our Anniversary Celebration was more than a success...it was an evening as vibrant and sentimental as our wedding, 25 years ago...and one we, and our guests, will never forget! We STILL get compliments from our family and friends!

Hiring Michele was the best decision we made for our wedding!

I cannot say enough great things about Michele from Couture Occasions! We never knew how much we needed her until we met her for the first time during our consultation. I was already a few months into planning my destination wedding and I was already overwhelmed. With a full time management job and a family of 4 to balance, planning a destination wedding was just a tremendous amount of stress that I wasn't prepared for and it was starting to effect myself, my husband and my kids. Michele took all of that weight off my shoulders and carried it on hers like a boss! Working with her was an honor. From day one she had our best interest in mind. She took the time to know and understand what we envisioned as our dream wedding first and then she took off and put 110% into everything. As time went on, she NEVER wavered. She helped us renegotiate our existing vendor contracts to ensure we were getting the best value, and helped us procure new vendor contracts at the best cost and quality we were looking for, while remaining within our budget. She shared her veteran advise with us and made recommendations when warranted but NEVER imposed them on us. When the road got bumpy at times (because believe me, it will when you'd least expect it) she was right there with me to keep me calm and to smooth them out. She does what she says and says what she means. The best thing that she did for us though was on our wedding day. She just killed it. She rocked that day. She made it all happen for us. She made sure every little detail that we planned out in our heads for almost a year straight came to fruition in the best way possible. The entire day went so well and I was able to LIVE in the moment thanks to her. She took on all of the stress and hard work so that we could really ENJOY that day. She was a part of every detail coordinating our vendors, ensuring the venue was clean and setup the way we wanted it, the placement of the napkins and dinnerware on the tables, location of the photo booth, timing of our processional, guiding our guests to their destinations, being the point of contact for everyone and fielding all of their questions, etc. etc... Then there was the Grand Reveal which is an experience that I never knew I wanted prior to that day. I didn't even ask her to set this up but she did anyway and AJ and I are so extremely grateful for it because it was a defining moment on our wedding day. It was a moment where my husband and I were able to see our ballroom for the first time and before anyone else got to see it. I had been planning this day since I was a little girl, and for a year straight, it was all I could think of and all AJ and I could talk about. And walking into that ballroom and seeing it all come together was a humbling and emotionally powerful experience. Michele cared enough about us and making our day special to coordinate that for us and surprise us with it. But It doesn't stop there! At the end of our wedding, she surprised us by decorating our room with rose pedals. a drawn bath, champagne and FOOD for us to enjoy our first night as a married couple. She really went above and beyond for us! I would recommend her to the next bride a MILLION times over!

Thank you and Si Yu'us Ma'ase' Michele for honoring us with your professionalism and passion. You are a dream wedding coordinator and we are so honored to have you be apart of our story!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Michelle and her team are the best! I am a videographer and I feel at ease knowing her team will be coordinating the day. They constantly keep me updated and not only make sure the bride and groom have everything they need but as well as all the other vendors! They are truly one of the best in the area! Thanks for everything you do to make the day go by easier!
