Aloha Hatchards!

From the moment we reached out to Cherise, we knew we had found someone truly special to help us plan the most important day of our lives. Cherise’s expertise, passion, and unwavering attention to detail made our Maui wedding an unforgettable experience, and we are beyond grateful for her every step of the way.

Cherise took the time to truly understand our vision, our dreams, and even the smallest details we might have missed. She didn’t just plan our wedding; she crafted a day that was personal, unique, and perfect in every way. The communication was seamless, and we never felt alone throughout the process. Whether we needed advice on vendors, local tips, or reassurance when nerves kicked in, Cherise was always there with a calming presence and practical guidance.

On the big day, Cherise was a miracle worker. She coordinated everything flawlessly! We were able to relax and soak in the magic because we knew we were in the best hands possible.

What truly set Cherise apart was her genuine care and kindness. She treats her clients like family and went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day exceeded every expectation. Her deep knowledge of Maui’s wedding scene, combined with her warm personality and dedication, made working with her a true pleasure.

Cherise made our dream wedding come to life in a way we never thought possible. We will be forever thankful for the role she played in making our day the most beautiful and memorable experience of our lives.

A Perfect Wedding is worth the investment!

Planning a small destination wedding may sound easy, but I wouldn’t have been able to pull it off without Cherise’s help!

By working with The Perfect Wedding, I was able to explain my vision to Cherise and save hours searching and negotiating with vendors – Maui has a tight-knit wedding industry and it’s so much easier to work with a planner who has all the best connections! Every one of the vendors that I worked with was fabulous, and having Cherise coordinate schedules and details helped everything run smoothly the day of our wedding. One of my favorite parts of the wedding was meeting all of the local vendors – everyone is cool, has an interesting story, and loves making your day special!

Cherise is great at what she does and has streamlined her process over the years to make it incredibly efficient for us, while taking into account all of the special requests that made our day perfect. Admittedly, we weren’t the best at timely responses, and Cherise kept us in line to make sure that she had everything she needed to execute perfectly – We appreciate her so much!

To anyone considering whether to hire a planner, The Perfect Wedding is 100% worth the investment! It’s an honor to have your friends and family be there on your special day, and you want to make sure that everyone (including you) is able to relax and enjoy the day. Because of The Perfect Wedding, we knew that every little thing was taken care of and were truly able to have an incredible experience from the minute we arrived in Maui!

Cherise was the heart of Maui.

Cherise was the heart of Maui. She listen to all of my questions and went above and beyond to get everything I requested. The big day she meet with us and she was a delete. Her heart is pure gold. She made what I dream come to life and beyond. This day was very magical. I couldn't believe how gorgeous my Haku and bouquet was. The photographs and video Grapher were amazing. Our yukule player was amazing. Also his majesty Luka was the best.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
