Justine is by far the most amazing planner there could possibly be. From the first conversation we had to the very last, she was on it and made us feel like we were the only couple in the world. Appointments were on time, every time. She did all the communication on our behalf for the vendors we chose, and made it so simple to just feel like we were arriving to our wedding. I will recommend Justine to anybody and everyone who asks for a wedding planner because she truly is the best.

From start to finish, Justine was an absolute dream to work with. She was my wedding planner and day-of coordinator, and I can honestly say my wedding would not have been what it was without her. Worth every penny.

Planning phase: Justine was incredibly easy to reach! Text, call, email, smoke signals, carrier pigeons, you name it, she was there. She was responsive, professional, and always honest (in the best way) about what was realistic and what wasn’t, which made decision-making so much easier. She managed expectations beautifully and had the most amazing roster of preferred vendors. Every single one of them was top-notch. She’s trustworthy, knowledgeable, and clearly a seasoned expert who knows the wedding world inside and out.

Day-of: This is where Justine truly ****shined****. About 30 minutes before my ceremony was supposed to start, the only highway leading to my venue was shut down for about two hours due to a tragic accident. None of us knew how long it would last, if the police would reopen it, or if our guests would even make it. While I (the bride) was hysterical and in tears, Justine was the calm in the chaos. She was composed, steady, and completely unflappable. She stayed in constant contact with the venue, coordinated with law enforcement for updates, and even called our friends and family who were stuck on the road.

When guests finally began arriving an hour and a half late due to the highway delay, Justine seamlessly pivoted our entire schedule on the fly. She rearranged the timeline so naturally that by the time the ceremony started, you’d never have guessed anything had gone wrong. Her poise, quick thinking, and professionalism saved the day and allowed us to still have the wedding of our dreams.

If you’re looking for someone who’s not only amazing at logistics but also brings calm, competence, and heart to everything she does - Justine is it. She’s the reason I was able to laugh, breathe, and enjoy the best day of my life, even in the middle of complete unpredictability.

Forever grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it. ❤️

We couldn’t be more thankful for Justine. Wedding planning isn’t easy, and out of state weddings add additional planning and coordination that we were not prepared to handle on our own. From the first meeting all the way up to the last minute of the wedding Justine was incredibly valuable. She is knowledgeable, professional, and was a huge help throughout the planning and wedding day coordination.

From the first meeting, Justine helped us understand what the next year would look like (we started planning early), helped us establish our budget, and gave us a timeline for when we will want to have certain things done. She was able to help us coordinate vendors, and bring us multiple quotes for each so we could choose the right one that fit our budget. She also gave us great recommendations and resources for things we wanted to find on our own. She also gave us honest advice along the way about which vendors she has experience working with so we could easily choose. There are a lot of decisions to make with vendors, and Justine was really helpful for us in deciding which choices would really be worth having and which ones we could do without to help us save money. She also has great communication skills and was very responsive when we had questions for her. She was always helpful in sending us follow up emails if we needed to select a vendor, make a payment, or just with any general updates.

She brought up a lot of things we hadn’t considered, and made the wedding planning as easy as possible. We had a hiccup with one of the vendors and that the owner of our catering company suddenly passed away two months before our wedding. Justine immediately was able to find another catering company that was able to match the menu we had selected at a similar price and we were able to book them for our wedding day.

The day of the wedding was very low stress for us. The advice we had been getting from people for months was to make sure we enjoy our wedding, and not stress about the details. Justine had everything covered from start to finish and we felt like we had nothing to worry about, so we could fully enjoy our day with friends and family. We had a ton of people that came up to us throughout the night that told us this was one of the best weddings they had been to, and that the way everything was set up and scheduled was perfect. 100% of the credit for set up and scheduling goes to Justine. We didn’t really have anything to do on the day of the wedding except have fun.

Overall we would 100% work with Justine if we had to do it all over again. Her experience and professionalism were exactly what we needed and we (and our guests) all had a great time at the wedding. Thanks Justine!

Justine was on the ball the entirely of the planning and execution process. She was always on time, direct and honest. She gave amazing suggestions and was quick to respond. She was essential to a seamless day! I highly recommend Justine/Luana Events if you want a smooth sailing event on Oahu.

From our initial consultation video with Justine we immediately noticed she stood out from the rest. She was professional, personable and always prepared. We planned our wedding at Paliku Gardens without even having been to Hawaii and it was a huge success thanks to her. You will not regret working with Justine @ Luana Events!

My experience with Luana Events was wonderful. Since my wedding was a destination wedding and we’re from Seattle, having Justine as our planner was one of the best decisions we made. She has extensive experience hosting weddings at Kualoa Ranch, strong vendor connections, and an impressive ability to provide quick solutions whenever questions came up.

Even though I didn’t have bridesmaids, I was able to enjoy a completely stress‑free wedding day because of her. Justine kept everything perfectly on schedule, making sure photography timelines were met and vendors arrived on time. She even recommended a florist who exceeded our expectations while staying within budget.

What stood out the most was Justine’s professionalism, vision, and encouragement. She understood exactly how I wanted my wedding to feel and brought it to life. On the day of, she supported me through an emotional moment before walking down the aisle, which meant so much. Even though she herself was going through a hard time, she still showed up wholeheartedly and gave her very best to make my wedding smooth, beautiful, and perfect.

I cannot thank her enough, and we feel so lucky to have had Justine and Luana Events by our side.

After interviewing many coordinators, we hired Luana Events based on the instant connection we felt with Justine. She was incredible to work with! We hired Justine for full service coordination and it was the best decision we made for our wedding.

She understood our vision and executed our dreams to make them a reality for our big day. Justine is professional, empathetic, knowledgable, and gives great advice! I asked her opinions a lot throughout the process and she didn't hesitate to give me her opinion on venues, vendors, ideas.... btw her opinions were always the right option we ended up going with! She has a great relationship with all the vendors we worked with which was a bonus - everyone loved working together at our event and it showed!

On the day of the event, she made sure everything ran smoothly and our guests were soooo impressed with her and the team.

I can not recommend working with Justine at Luana Events enough if you have an opportunity.

Hiring Justine was the best decision we made for our Hawaii wedding. Over 10 months, she was our calm, capable, and caring planner who made the whole process smooth and genuinely fun. Nothing was ever a hassle—she was always available, incredibly organised, and full of great ideas.

On the big day, everything ran like clockwork. I was the calmest bride ever, and that’s entirely thanks to her! From decor to timeline to vendor coordination, she nailed it. We interviewed four other planners—no one else came close to her warmth, professionalism, or value. Our Jurassic Park wedding dream came true because of Justine. We’re forever grateful and highly, highly recommend her!

After interviewing a handful of wedding coordinators / planners, I found they either offered too much or too little in their packages. After speaking with Justine, she tailored the perfect service package for our needs.

And boy was I happy we went with her!!

Justine is a WEALTH of knowledge which she generously shares. Her insights made us tweak a multiple logistics that made the day of and weeks leading up to the wedding run so much smoother. I ended up losing my phone the day before the wedding, but didn't have any fear or doubt because I trusted her and her team. They delivered a wedding more beautiful than I could have dreamed of. Her instincts are spot on - on the day the flowers we had for our cake were too heavy so she improvised and used some from the florist downstairs and they were gorgeous. We ended up having some difficulty negotiating a few things with our venue and Justine our fairy godmother was able to step in, mediate, and deliver what we wanted.

On top of knowing her stuff and executing like a pro, she is also funny and respectful and really cares about her clients and ensuring they have wonderful, happy celebrations.

We loved Justine so much we worked with her on more events throughout our wedding week :)

We used Luana Events for my daughter's wedding on Oahu in February 2025. Justine Miller was our wedding coordinator, and thanks to her, the day could not have gone more smoothly or been more perfect. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly organized and professional coordinator to help with your special event.
