A literal dream!

I can’t even put into words how WONDERFUL of an experience I had here. Ke’alohi was the BIGGEST help in planning my elopement. I called her almost everyday for 2 weeks asking questions and she was always happy to help answer them. Such great communication. I eloped where my parents did at Waimea Falls (waterfall) and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We got to take the golf cart up to the waterfall and when it started to rain, the patience of everyone as we figured out how to work around it was PHENOMENAL! It was something I’ll never forget. I am SO happy I chose Waimea Valley as my venue. Couldn’t have gone any better!!! 100000/10 recommendation. *** Photo Credit: Megan David: https://mdeephotos.com ***

Respicio Wedding at Waimea Valley

We LOVED having our wedding at Waimea Valley. We worked with Kealohi and she was great throughout the entire process.

Being born and raised in Hawaii, it was important to me to have our wedding at a place I called home. Not only is Waimea Valley breathtakingly beautiful, it serves as an important historical and cultural part of Hawaii. We decided to have our wedding at Waimea Valley in April 2023, and just had our wedding last week, March 2024. We had 2 options (in the valley) to choose from and decided to have our wedding on the main lawn and Pikake pavilion. We loved the main lawn since it had a large tree as its focal point. We loved all the plants and trees that surrounded the valley as well.

Kealohi made the planning process a breeze. She was very informative and answered our questions promptly. We were able to take a tour of the venue in September 2023, where she gave us a personal tour and shared historical and cultural information about the valley. During the day of the wedding, Kealohi was present and available when needed.

We would 10/10 recommend having an event or wedding here at Waimea Valley.

Kealohi is the best

The only issues we had were with non-Waimea vendors(wedding coordinator) and some visitors refusing to leave our venue. Kealohi was quick to help and handled every situation quickly and professionally. Every vendor from her recommended list was wonderful. Our coordinator (not on her list) was disorganized and didn't listen to our wants. Every hiccup we had along the way, Kealohi handled it well and helped us tremendously.

Sending much mahalo's and aloha their way.
