Great service and human behind it

Honestly this review is way overdue. I am an elopement planner and photographer on Maui and have worked with Sean many many times. I met him a few years back and through the years we have had the honor to serve multiple couples traveling to Maui to celebrate their weddings. Sean is not only a great professional but also a beautiful human. He is always kind, detail-oriented, punctual, and accommodating. He always brings a smile and a calm energy which makes couples feel grounded and comfortable which is incredibly important on wedding days. He is always presentable too and he makes sure to really show up for the couple but also for the vendor's team. I would 100% recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant on Maui.

The officiant of our dreams!

We really can’t say enough positive things about Sean. I honestly only write reviews on services when it is really warranted…. And this is absolutely the case for Sean! He made our day so special. He seamlessly delivered the most beautiful speech at our ceremony. I was truly shocked at how great it all was. On top of that, just so friendly, responsive, and just an overall excellent vibe to have around you on your wedding day. Take this as your sign to book Sean!! I’m confident there is no one better for the occasion…. Wishing you all the best in the future, Sean!

Sean was amazing!

We had to pleasure of having Sean be our officiant this past July for our elopement in Maui. We couldn't have asked for a better officiant. He took the time to even add aspects to his ceremony that were special to my husband and I. He genuinely made our ceremony unforgettable. We would recommend him to anyone who was looking for an officiant! P.S. He's also an insane fire thrower!!

Sean is the best!

I highly recommend using Sean to be the officiant of your wedding! My now wife and I eloped in Maui in September of 2023 and Sean led the ceremony. Sean was responsive in the months, weeks, and days leading up to the wedding, and on the day of he made everything truly special. The ceremony was amazing, and even though we had only known Sean for a few months (mainly over email), he felt like an old friend. It’s also worth adding that our elopement was only about 6 weeks after the devastating and tragic fires in Maui, so having Sean to check in with and get advice from was amazing. He helped make our day perfect, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
