    We would have married sooner if we knew about Aloha Dream Weddings!

    Trust this team with planning your special day. If I had known about Aloha Dream Weddings we would have been married sooner! Darci's team is stellar! It was the best experience. Jackie, my hair and make up stylist created my vision at 5 AM. She was a joy, upbeat and positive and so talented. Ian our photographer was the best. Truly talented professional with a keen eye for the perfect shot. He took the time to ensure our photos captured the amazing beauty of Maui along with the special ceremony moments! Robert our Minister was a special surprise as he articulated the meaning of marriage and committment with grace. His words resonated with us and we will cherish and value his wisdom forever. Darci made our wedding day stress free and joyful. We are so grateful to have found Aloha Dream Weddings!

    Simply amazing!

    Darci and her team at Aloha Maui Dream Weddings made our special day absolutely perfect. From finding us a gorgeous spot on the beach of a hidden cove for our wedding ceremony, to talking us through the event and its planning…every step of the way. This experience definitely exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend this group. Starting with the Hair Stylist/Makeup artist, Jackie, who arrived at our hotel, which for her was an hour away, at 4:30am to get a nervous bride ready for her big day and made her feel very beautiful. To our awesome photographer, Ian, who spent so much time with us making sure to get those perfect shots at the most flattering angles, and timing them in between some really unpredictable, but spectacular, crashing waves. And of course, our Hawaiian Minister, Robert, who was soooo wonderful; the tear-filled ceremony was simple yet beautiful and more than we could ever have hoped for. All brought together of course by Darci, who’s warm demeanor which quickly puts you at ease, handled everything with complete professionalism and grace.

    Aloha Maui Dream Weddings helped to create one of the most memorable experiences of our lives…and from the bottom of our hearts, we are so thankful!!

    Amazing.. They did an AMAZING job!

    Darci and her team went above and beyond to help with our small wedding. They were flexible in the planning as we had a change in numbers and found us an officiant when ours could not come. The wedding was beautiful and everything I could have asked for and wanted. The officiant was beyond what we had expected and did an amazing job!
    She did a last minute drop-off of our flowers so we could have them in all the pictures. The team was truly the best!
    If you are in need of some help organizing and planning, you should reach out to Darci. The made our day PERFECT!

    Amazing ,, We had a Hawaiian wedding. It was just amazing. Couldn’t have asked for anything better, thank you

    Amazing. I got married on the beach February 14. It was a dream come true… started raining didn’t get all the pictures I truly wanted. But I guess the rain gave us good luck. I would definitely recommend she was amazing.

    Could not have hired a more perfect wedding coordinator

    I can express the feeling of love I have for Darci for helping plan the absolute perfect wedding. She took the time to get to know us. When the fire happened she was in tough everyday encouraging us to still come and helped us move everything to the other side of the island.

    February wedding

    Darci was wonderful to work with. I sent in a request and within a few mins she responded. She had everything prepared for our wedding, flowers, photographer, cake and officiant and no stress for us as a couple. Our wedding was during Hawaii winter season but the beach she recommended was perfect weather on the day of our wedding. Robert the officiant was wonderful and Ian the photographer did a great job. Thanks to Darci we enjoyed a vacation with a wedding included and did not have to worry about making sure anything was done. Darci goes above and beyond and helps make a special occasion amazing.

    Unforgettable

    Our wedding was an absolute dream. Darci was incredible at making the planning process go as smooth as possible. We had a hiccup beforehand and werent sure if our officiant Robert Kuya would be able to make it, and Darci was able to get another in time. Both officiants ended up making it, and both Kahu Alalani and Robert Kuya performed our ceremony. It felt extra special and we will always have a piece of our hearts here. Definitely recommend!

    October 2022 Wedding

    My husband and I had been engaged since 2018 and the pandemic had sidelined our initial wedding plans in California. Coming from Canada, it was daunting to contemplate organizing a wedding in Maui but Darci made everything work for us. We enjoyed a glorious morning wedding on the beach with family and friends-even remotely by Zoom. We couldn’t have been more thrilled!

    The best day of our lives

    Our wedding was the most magical, beautiful, and fun day of our lives. Darci effortlessly pulled all of the details together to make it possible. I communicated with her via text and phone throughout the course of 7 months, she was always patient, kind, and answered all of my questions. On the day of, Darci and Penny were just fantastic. Their attitudes were contagious, and they made everyone feel comfortable. Darci very clearly told us what we needed to do and we really felt like we were in capable hands. I trusted that I could simply tell her what I wanted and she would make it happen. And that’s exactly how it went. Our wedding was the best day of our lives and we will always be grateful to Darci and Penny!!

    Dream Wedding

    They helped me plan the experience I was looking for. Everyone involved was so helpful even when our flight was delayed and we missed the marriage license appointment. The person waited for us to arrive. My wedding was more than I could have hoped for. It was everything I dreamed of and more

    A magical experience

    With this being our first trip off the mainland US and not knowing what to expect, these wonderful ladies brought us the experience of a lifetime. We expected a run of the mill conveyor belt wedding service and were provided a breathtaking experience where we were catered to, explained, and put as the center of attention every step of the way. We were asked to provide a synopsis of our relationship prior to our vacation and were astounded when they recalled so many details, as if they did their homework to tailor the experience to us with extreme precision. Exceeding expectation is an understatement. We can't recommend Darci and Penny enough!!!!

    From time of booking until a week after we arrived back home… still so responsive and helpful! I could go on and on about how wonderful her entire team is… but I promise you. Book your wedding with her and you WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

    Everything we wanted

    Due to work circumstances, we had to quickly plan our trip to Maui which meant we had no time to plan a wedding. I emailed Aloha Maui Dream Weddings while sitting at dinner and had a response from Darci within minutes. We texted for a while that evening and we got all the information we needed to make a decision the next day. Three days later we got married with a wonderful officiant at Po’ Olenalena Beach. Darci was in constant communication leading up to the wedding and even the morning of the wedding as we were driving down to the south coast due to the huge waves. The ceremony was beautiful and Darci and Penny took great care to take pictures safely due to the waves. Darci’s positive attitude and encouragement during the whole process was amazing and so helpful. She put our minds at ease and really helped us focus on the moment and our wedding.

    Amazing Experience

    Darci and team were amazing to work with. They were a joy to work with throughout the entire wedding process. Even went above and beyond and changed the entire venue the day before the wedding due to swells taking out a chunk of the ideal section of beach that we had planned. She moved us to another beach which turned to be even better than we originally chose. It was a night to remember and every single person in our party said it was such a perfect wedding and reception!

    When on maui look no further!

    I can’t say enough about Darci and her team of professionals. We put our trust in her and she did not disappoint. All of our expectations were far exceeded well beyond what we expected. She loves what she does and it not only shows in how she works with you but throughout all aspects of the experience. We had so much fun with Darci and her team that we also scheduled a Trash The Dress photoshoot with them as well while we were on Maui.

    Amazing experience!

    My husband and I got married (just the two of us) in Maui since we didn't want any of the wedding planning headaches.. but we still wanted it to feel special and have beautiful photos from the day. I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience working with Darci and Penny. Darci made the entire process SO easy - she handled all the details so all we had to do was show-up, no stress involved! She was so communicative and went above and beyond to give us a personalized experience and make our day absolutely perfect. Penny made us feel so comfortable and relaxed during the photos and they turned out BEAUTIFULLY! Definitely recommend to anyone looking to get married in Maui!

    Everything I Dreamed

    My (now) husband and I decided a long time ago that we wanted to elope. During the Fall of 2020, we booked a trip to Maui, and I so casually said, "Let's elope on the island." He said sure!!! Then began the booking process... I went through several sites looking for an elopement package that felt authentic and reasonably priced. This landed me on the Aloha Maui Dream Weddings page. I was able to text the owner and ask ALL of my questions. There were so many "add-ons," locations, and Covid concerns. One of Darci's first questions to me was, "Do you trust me?" Well... I only knew this woman for a short time, but she beautifully answered all of my questions and relieved my stress, so yes, I told her I trusted her. This was all she needed. She kicked it into gear with modifying my perfect elopement (we had 3 friends attend). She chose the perfect beach (White Rock Beach) for my evening wedding, as well as she handpicked an amazing spiritual reverend (Rev. Kuya) for the ceremony. The evening could not have been more perfect. I felt absolutely no stress at all with Darci as my gal!

    Aside from wedding details and planning, Darci would text me pictures of the weather when we were still on the mainland and flooding was taking place in Maui. She would text me the week before we left making sure we had all of our paperwork in order. She texted me the day we arrived wishing us fun adventures. She even texted me pictures of sunburn relief when she found out I ha been at the pool the day before my wedding(:

    Darci made the entire experience so personal. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to have a special, stress-free event on the island!!

    Aloha Maui Dream Weddings's reply:

    I am so happy to have met you both! I’m really glad you all had such a wonderful trip. You have Ohana on Maui for life so if you need help during a future trip, feel free to reach out! Mahalo e Aloha!

    Aloha Maui Dream Weddings

    If you want to get married on Maui (and I think you do), this is the company to contact. One email sets the ball rolling, and everything you need gets covered—even if you didn’t know you needed it. Ours was a purposely casual, toes in the sand event, because that’s the kind of people we are, but even those small affairs have a lot of behind the scenes things that need to be handled . If you’re not from there, it’s hard to know all the rules, so a local planner is really helpful. AMDW did it all—permits, license appointment, officiant, and all the info we needed to complete before and after we arrived. All we had to do was show up and kick off our shoes. 100% seamless in the paperwork process and our officiant, Reverend Kuya, was wonderful. He put everyone at ease immediately, which allowed us to relax and have fun while he bestowed us with a beautiful and meaningful blessing. The only issue we had was it would have been nice to have different locations as part of the add-ons for the lower price packages because we ended up spending a lot of time in the car driving to the one location they did offer in our price range. It was a nice beach, just a long drive from where we were staying.

    Wonderful!

    I really enjoyed working with Darci at Aloha Maui Dream Weddings! Out the gate she was timely, encouraging and knowledgeable. In person Darci made sure our wedding was on time, organized and exactly what I wanted. She convinced me to do an early morning wedding at Po'olenalena Beach (originally I wanted to do a sunset wedding) and I was so glad she did! The temperature was much cooler, the lighting was just right & we had the rest of the day to celebrate. It was overwhelming combing through all the companies in Maui that offer wedding services, and I am so happy I decided to go with Darci! Thank you for everything!

    Amazing Experience!

    Maui Dream Weddings was amazing! My wedding was even better than I imagined. Darcy and her team were super responsive and very helpful. We actually had our original venue wash out and Darcy immediately solved the problem with an even better venue! My husband and I were very impressed.

    Wonderful Wedding

    My husband and I decided to get married a week before the big day. I called Darci to see if this could work, and she made the process so easy. Between arranging the marriage license, flowers, hair/makeup, wedding official, music, photos, and video, really all we had to do was make a few decisions and show up. We both agree that this was the best decision and were very pleased with how everything from the ceremony to photos to video turned out.

    Aloha Maui Dream Weddings's reply:

    Mahalo! We really enjoyed our time with you. We wish you a fantastic future! Come back and see us in 5 years ;)
