About

If I was to describe myself with on word it would be lover. Now, before you get the wrong idea let me clarify. I'm a lover of so many things...Jesus Christ, family, friends, people in general (they just do the darndest things), tools, crafts, sewing, creating, DIY anything, fabric, food, laughing, smiles, sunshine, big white puffy clouds. Ok you get the picture...I'm a lover, but besides all that, I'm a wife, aunt, daughter, homemaker and now business owner. I worked as a manager for 7 years at a major retail store, but after marrying decided that there was more to lfe that retail. Since leaving retail God has rekindled my passion for sewing, decorating, creating, DIY-ing, baking, cooking and whatever else I feel like dabbling in. So with this rekindled love I thought why shouldn't everyone be able to have a beautiful wedding, party and or home on a budget that they can afford using items that they already own. That ladies and gentlemen is how Make It your Own came to life. I'm an avid DIY-er who loves re-purposing and believes that a little elbow grease goes a long way.

Amazing. Wonderful. Dream work

Let me begin by saying that my fiance and I were planning a destination wedding on the Big Island and I was referred to Danielle by the wedding coordinator I was working with. Danielle and I emailed back & forth since October or November 2019 and she was extremely professional and went above and beyond for us on our big day! She continually kept me in the loop throughout the process of a flower shipment not making it, but then going out of her way to make sure the flowers were there. I still felt as if I was one of her main priorities. She helped make the process so much easier for us! I would HIGHLY recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a professional, kind and efficient wedding florist, cake baker, and wedding decor!

She was a DREAM to work with

Let me begin by saying that my fiance and I were planning a destination wedding on the Big Island and I was referred to Danielle by a family friend. Danielle and I emailed back & forth since October 2019 and she was very diligent, professional and kind during my crazy times (and constant emails and questions)! She worked with me when it came to rescheduling our wedding not only once, but TWICE due to the pandemic. Did I mention that Danielle was also far into her pregancy while working together, and I had no idea until she mentioned it to me in passing ! I still felt as if I was one of her main priorities. She helped make the process so much easier for us, especially when I myself is not only an over-thinker, but was also trying to plan a wedding on an island we were unfamilier with. I would HIGHLY recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a professional, kind and efficient wedding planner!

Danielle is amazing !

I loved having Danielle ! She was so amazing throughout my entire experience. I reached out to her 3 years ago after I first got engaged ! She was recommended from my coworker, because her sister got married in Hawaii and had Danielle as her planner. So happy I went with her. She was so nice, flexible, accommodating, and she eased so much of my stresses from my destination wedding.

Above and beyond

Danielle went above and beyond decorating our wedding. From making my bouquet, corsages, table decorations, having coolers and other things to rent. Our wedding wouldn't have been nearly as nice if it wasn't for her! She was always available if i had any questions, or concerns. Cant recommend her enough, no one else I would use!

Put people above the business

I have emailed Danielle about my upcoming wedding and even though she was not available for the date, she went out of her way to help me and gave me the contacts of people and companies whom I was missing. I am very happy that I found her. She truly cares about her clients and she puts them above her business and profits. I wish she was available and I could work with her on the day of my wedding.

Mauna Kea Wedding

Danielle was amazing to work with, I could not have done this without all of her expertise, enthusiasm and professionalism! She was there every step of the way and incredibly helpful when we needed ideas for décor. She understands the current wedding trends and what it takes to put together a destination wedding. Not only did she coordinate all our vendors prior to the wedding and everything the day of, she also provided décor and made sure everything was in place and looked beautiful!
She went above and beyond to have meeting with us and suggest vendors when I was not satisfied (vendors I had selected before contracting with her). Working with Danielle was incredibly easy and fun! I felt like I was planning my wedding with a longtime friend, she understood and saw our vision. She was there no matter the time of day for a call, text or email and to ensure everything was going to be just perfect, and that it was.
The day of the wedding I had lost my voice and she brought me up some tea, which put all my stresses at ease. I knew she had it all taken care of and I had nothing to worry about. The day was perfect and my husband and I could not thank Danielle enough for all her hard work and time she put into making our wedding day so special and amazing!
Thank you Danielle!

Working with Danielle for my daughters seeet 15 event was an excellent experience. It was really easy putting ideas together. She executed my vision and then some. She worked within my budget and still made our event look like a million dollars. I highly recommend Danielle’s services for all you decor needs.

Working with Danielle was fun, easy, and pleasant! We moved to Kona about a year ago from San Francisco, CA, and since nearly 80% (out of 250) of our guests were coming from the mainland, we wanted to give our guests a very tropical, minimal, yet classy feel while visiting the island, and she nailed it. Our guests were WOW'd. We had two different venues - our ceremony on our church lawn (Living Stones Church) and our reception at a state park pavilion (Old Kona Airport Pavilion.) Our local guests who have been to many events at the Old Airport Pavilion told us they had never seen it look as beautiful as it did that night!! She is kind, respectful, and humble, always mindful of our budget and giving us plenty of options along the way. Prior to the wedding, she met me a couple times at the reception venue to take measurements and to scope out what she'd be working with. She did our bouquets, created an arch for the ceremony, photo booth backdrop, built curtains and drapes, went through the ends of the earth to get me 100 pineapples, and the cost was so reasonable! She was always available to us, and even with some last minute craziness, she made it effortless. We are so grateful for her and her team for helping make our wedding so, so, SO beautiful! Thanks Danielle #240 XoXO

Danielle was amazing! From our first meeting she helped me nail down a theme, colors, and over all feel of what our reception would be like. I am sometimes the worst at putting into words what I like and what I want. Danielle made it so easy. She would show me 2 different pictures on Pinterest and I'd say "I like them both" and she would say "it's ok. I know what you like about this one and I know what you like about that one. I can bring it all together!"
She definitely did just that! She brought it all together beautifully!! We loved it all!
She did our flowers, all decorations, handled the venue and all vendors, and even did our wedding cake!
In a time that could be very stressful, the planning was so peaceful thanks to Danielle. Thank you for all your hard work!
