Molly Johnston of Bliss In Bloom: The Ultimate Wedding Planner on the Big Island
If you're planning a wedding on the Big Island, look no further than Molly Johnston of Bliss In Bloom. She is, without a doubt, the best.
Last August, our families hosted a wedding at the luxurious Fairmont Orchid on the Big Island. Although we had organized events before, we quickly realized the irreplaceable value of having an experienced wedding planner—especially one who knows the island intimately. That's where Molly Johnston came into play, and for that, we will always be grateful.
From start to finish, Molly was exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the Big Island, strong relationships with local vendors, and calm, professional demeanor made all the difference. She anticipated every detail, bringing creative and thoughtful touches that elevated the entire event. From managing logistics to navigating potential weather challenges and permits, she handled everything seamlessly—things we would never have considered, even as experienced planners who previously hosted a wedding on the mainland.
Planning a wedding from a distance can be overwhelming, making it vital to have someone who lives and works on the island—someone with a genuine understanding of the nuances involved in hosting an outdoor event in Hawai’i. Molly brought not only her expertise but also warmth, grace, and an unwavering commitment to ensuring that our three-day event was beautiful and stress-free.
We are thrilled that our family chose the Fairmont Orchid to host approximately 90 guests over a three-day wedding weekend, with many staying at the resort for five nights. Thanks to Molly and the exceptional team at the Fairmont led by Celeste Tremblay, every aspect of the experience was meticulously executed. From our Welcome Luau at Coconut Grove on Friday evening and the beautiful Ceremony at Turtle Pointe, to the Cocktail Reception at the Tennis Pavilion and the elegant, tented Wedding Reception at The Plantation on Saturday, culminating in a Farewell Brunch at the Paniolo Lounge on Sunday—each detail was flawlessly carried out.
If you're considering a destination wedding on the Big Island, we wholeheartedly recommend partnering with both the Fairmont Orchid, specifically Celeste Tremblay, and Molly Johnston of Bliss In Bloom. They are true professionals, and thanks to their efforts, our son and daughter-in-law's special day was everything they dreamed of and more.

Top-notch service! BEST wedding planner.
Kirsten with Bliss in Bloom is the best wedding planner!
Not only did she provide top-notch service for our wedding, but also executed the wedding events and wedding day extremely well.
My husband and I got married in April 2024 and we started the planning process about a year and a half before the wedding. Throughout the months, Kirsten was an excellent communicator, organized, and very kind. We emailed and texted regularly, had monthly meetings (weekly meetings when we got closer to the wedding), and she made sure to followed up on tasks that I needed to do as a bride. I never felt stressed with planning the wedding, and I know that is ultimately because of Kirsten. I trusted her from the beginning, not only because of her amazing experience, but because she is a good person and executes the job well. She and her team also planned our welcome party, which was breath taking. Everything was beyond perfect.
Kirsten, thank you for all you and your team did for our special day. You made us feel like the most badass bride and groom. Thank you for everything!Kirsten with Bliss in Bloom is the best wedding planner!

Amazing Wedding Coordinator!
Kiersten was so helpful, and we knew we were in good hands with her. Kiersten was organized, detail-oriented and so responsive to all our needs. She turned our vision into exactly what we pictured.
The day of I knew I didn't have to worry about a thing because Kirsten was handling everything to the last detail. She was professional, kind and her expertise made the day unforgettable.
We couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. She's truly the best! We highly recommend Kirsten!Kiersten was so helpful, and we knew we were in good hands with her. Kiersten was organized, detail-oriented and so responsive to all our needs. She turned our vision into exactly what we pictured.

A forever fan, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! You'll regret it if you don't consider Bliss in Bloom
[Warning: this is a long review and it will be very well worth the read. Especially if you’re about to make one of the most critical decisions to choose who will get to handle the most important and special day in your life: Your Wedding Day]
As a particularly fastidious, OCD, and detail-oriented person. I’m the type of person who (if I had the spare time) would iron my pillowcases and arrange my closet into the colors of the rainbow. And… I had no idea the level of detail it takes to effectively plan and smoothly execute a wedding.
If I did not have Kirsten Haspe with Bliss in Bloom on our side, our wedding could have rapidly and easily turned into a sh*tshow. In fact, she was so on-top-of her game and so diligent, she and her team were actually having to constantly remind US to get things done, so everything would turn out as we wanted. She didn’t skip a beat! She FAR EXCEEDED any expectations we could possibly think of or even try to make up.
And when I say “on top of her game,” I mean— she was vehemently quick to respond (whether it was text or email), quick to take action, and is extremely organized knowing every bit of everything that needed to be handled. There was never a moment that she didn’t know what was going on. Not one iota of detail was overlooked, not one moment ever missed. Her detail-orientedness is sharper than a hawk’s eye, and her level of organization makes Marie Kondo’s appear like that of a toddler.
My husband and I travel multiple times a month basically living out of our suitcases for work, so we were pretty out of pocket and unable to handle a lot of things that needed to be handled. And planning a wedding on a completely different island didn’t help make things easier either.
Thankfully, Kirsten knew the Big Island well, is highly connected with vendors there, and was incredibly resourceful. She provided excellent vendor recommendations from catering, cake, music, decor, lighting, linens, and activities (for our guests for when they arrived to Hawaii).
She was one of the major reasons why not only did I thoroughly enjoy the wedding planning process, but our guests and family all had an amazing time on our wedding day. We got married about 2 months ago and our guests are STILL TILL THIS DAY raving about how beautiful, smoothly ran, fun, breathtaking and memorable our wedding day was and wish they were back at our wedding!
As a bride, you typically want everything to be right: your hair, makeup, the dress, the entire day; and you pray everything goes well according to plan. As a human, you know there needs to be a level of acceptance that once it’s the morning of the wedding day, what goes-goes. What is gonna happen, is gonna happen.
I will proudly share with you, there was NEVER a moment of doubt, fear, anxiety, concern of how everything was going to turn out because of Kirsten and how she and her team showed up for us from Day 1 (starting from our initial intro call) until well after our wedding.
I loved Kirsten’s taste (and I am pretty picky) and truly valued her opinion on nearly everything. We leaned on her a ton for a lot what needed to be handled.
Because of Kirsten and her team at Bliss in Bloom, what I thought was impossible actually came true— My wedding became Pinterest worthy! Though that never was my intention or goal, she helped make our wedding turn into something that magically came out of a fantasy.
And I so appreciate the care, dedication, and diligent hard work that Kirsten poured in to help make that happen. I will forever refer her to anyone who I know is looking for a reliable, trustworthy, proactive, organized, professional, and caring wedding planner.[Warning: this is a long review and it will be very well worth the read.

We love bliss in bloom
We had the best experience working with Bliss In Bloom from Day 1! Our head coordinator was Kirsten who instantly put us at ease because she is so clearly great at her job. Our wedding guests constantly commented on how relaxed we were the week leading up to and day of our wedding, and honestly it was all because of Kirsten and her team.
In the lead up, Kirsten advised us on all the vendors we would need and who on the Big Island they recommended. She knows everyone! It made it so easy for us that she had a strong shorthand with all the vendors we chose.
She also worked very closely with us on the florals, and handled all the communication with the florist which again made it so EASY! I also at times felt at a loss of what direction we should go with the flowers and Kirsten was a great resource with that, never told me what to do but helped me visualize what it would all look like together... she even found example imagery of what I was having a hard time articulating to her, making it clear that she understood me and what I was looking for.
Once we got into the month lead up, Kirsten took over all the communication with our vendors and we honestly didn't have to talk to anyone else but Kirsten from that point on and even through the wedding day.
Our wedding was honestly more than we could have ever expected! It was so special to us, everything went off perfectly and we really owe all of that to Kirsten. It was so important to us to be present and enjoy the event as our guests did... and that is exactly what we did!

Bliss in Bloom Rocks!!!
Bliss in Bloom is the absolute best ever!!! Words do not adequately express how exceptional they are at all they do. They are knowledgeable, professional, caring and beyond organized. Allison was a dream come true in the month leading up to the wedding and, of course, during the entire big day. The group thinks of every possible detail and takes care of a million things behind the scenes, allowing us to relax and just enjoy our beautiful day. They work with an exceptional group of high quality vendors and are able to personally recommend anyone/anything based on the vision for the event. Allison had an emergency kit the day of the wedding with just about anything you'd ever want/need. She led the rehearsal and handled every detail leading up to the wedding. I highly recommend Bliss in Bloom to anyone considering a wedding on the Big Island. They are, hands down, the reason our wedding was truly special and so much more than we dreamed it would be.Bliss in Bloom is the absolute best ever!!!

This crew was absolutely amazing!
If you are debating hiring Allison and her team for day-of-coordination, don't hesitate, just book! Even though we only had them for day-of, they provided us with immense help with our wedding from start to finish. Kirsten shared so much guidance and care in the months leading up to our wedding, from an initial kick off call to vendor recommendations, help with Aisle Planner, and answers to my many questions over email. We then had the pleasure of working with Alison, who created a perfect timeline, again answered my many questions, made sure all the vendors were aligned and on it, got us rehearsed and ready, and truly brought our vision to life the day-of. She thought of everything, had answers for everyone, and made sure I didn't have to think about (or stress about) anything the entire day. Plus the Bliss in Bloom Instagram/Blog is great for inspiration and they have really strong relationships with all the best vendors on the Island which makes for a seamless celebration. Absolutely recommend booking them for your wedding!!If you are debating hiring Allison and her team for day-of-coordination, don't hesitate, just book!

Amazing experience - HIRE THEM!
I can't thank Bliss in Bloom enough for making my entire wedding planning process so easy. I knew from my first call with Kirsten that I had to work with them. I never felt like I was just another client, Kirsten always took time to get to know me, my fiance and our wedding dreams.
They have amazing preferred vendors and are so well-connected (and respected) on the island, which was a huge relief as a long-distance bride. Kirsten never hesitated to text, call, answer questions, or help find solutions. Because of all this, I did not feel stressed going into the wedding day. Kirsten put my mind at ease and made sure every last detail was thought through. I can 100% say my wedding day (and the entire planning process) would NOT have gone smoothly without Kirsten and Bliss in Bloom.

Superb vendor!
I just got married this past weekend and had the absolute tropical wedding of my dreams because of Kirsten from Bliss in Bloom! To give some background, I had postponed twice because of Covid and Kirsten was so incredibly helpful and understanding for each postponement- calming me down (LOL) and reaching out to vendors each time to identify new dates. Not only is Kirsten kind and warm (I felt like I had known her my whole life when we finally met), she was so collaborative, responsive (trust me - she will get back to you instantly!) and organized. She coordinated with all my vendors flawlessly. (By the way - all my vendors were so excited to hear Kirsten was our wedding coordinator/planner which is always something you want to hear!) On our wedding day, Kirsten had every detail under control. My husband and I could just truly enjoy our day, knowing everything in the background was being taken care of. My guests seriously kept saying over and over again that this was the BEST wedding they had ever been to - we had a blast! Thank you to Kirsten and Lynn for literally making my wedding dream come true!I just got married this past weekend and had the absolute tropical wedding of my dreams because of Kirsten from Bliss in Bloom! To give some background, I had postponed twice because of Covid and Kirsten was so incredibly helpful and understanding for each postponement- calming me down (LOL) and reaching out to vendors each time to identify new dates. Not only is Kirsten kind and warm (I felt like I had known her my whole life when we finally met), she was so collaborative, responsive (trust me - she will get back to you instantly!) and organized. She coordinated with all my vendors flawlessly. (By the way - all my vendors were so excited to hear Kirsten was our wedding coordinator/planner which is always something you want to hear!)

Prevented me from becoming a Bridezilla!!🤣
Bliss and Bloom helped prevent me from becoming a Bridezilla! Planning a wedding during a pandemic with numerous uncertainties and sudden changes was an overwhelming challenge. I was so lucky to have an supportive, encouraging, optimistic, compassionate, and empathetic wedding planner by my side throughout the process. Lynn helped me deal not only with the unexpected changes from the pandemic, she also helped me by communicating with and organizing vendors. She was an integral part of helping us create the wedding of our dreams and ensuring our day proceeded smoothly. Which it did!! Everything felt so relaxed and well taken care of. We had no worries. We were able to just enjoy the day and celebrate our marriage! Bliss and bloom had been recommended to me by one of my friends who they helped on her wedding day; likewise, I highly recommend them to anyone that wants to ensure their wedding planning process and wedding day are both things they can enjoy!Bliss and Bloom helped prevent me from becoming a Bridezilla!

Bliss in Bloom put together our perfect wedding day!
My husband and I got married on March 7 on the Big Island of Hawaii and we couldn't have done it without Kirsten and the Bliss in Bloom team. Kirsten worked with us for more than a year to help us plan our wedding, connecting us with the best vendors on the island, communicating with our vendors when we made requests, and helping us walk through a very comprehensive checklist of todos. Bliss in Bloom is SO organized and prepared, from their wedding planning software to the timeline they prep for the wedding day.
As the days got closer to the wedding, I was so scatterbrained and Kirsten helped me keep everything in order! She was so on top of it, reminding my mom and I of everything we needed to do by when and we so appreciated her advice and guidance.
Most of all, Kirsten made the wedding day seamless and smooth! It was magical and my husband and I are going to dream about it for months to come. When we told Kirsten that we forgot to eat slices of our wedding cake because the wedding was so busy, she brought us by some freshly made wedding cake after the wedding - so sweet and generous!

Bliss in Bloom is the best of the best
It does not get any better than Bliss in Bloom - they are the dream team of wedding coordinators!
During my wedding planning experience, I was originally planning a destination wedding with a coordinator (not from Bliss in Bloom) and everything was going fine ... until 3 months before the wedding. They stopped answering my questions and ultimately stopped responding to my communications. I reached out to Bliss in Bloom and they took me on as a client. It was one of the busiest times of the year for them and we only had 3 months to make up for 12 months worth of planning.
Kirsten was AMAZING! She took all of the stress of my shoulders and handled everything. She took my ideas and created exactly the vision I was looking for. She helped answer all of my questions and made sure that every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. My wedding planning went from a nightmare to a dream. Kirsten is so skilled at understanding and listening to her client's thoughts and being a kind and firm decision-maker. She made sure we stayed on schedule for wedding planning and was always reachable via texts/calls/emails while still managing her other clients. Kirsten is kind, honest, direct, and overall a true joy to work with - she is the best.
The wedding day was magical and seamless and completely stress-free, all because of the help of Kirsten and the Bliss in Bloom team. They helped manage every detail of the day so that me, my husband, our parents, and our wedding party could enjoy and cherish the day.

The Absolute Finest Coordinators
Lynn and the Bliss In Bloom team were beyond fantastic. The level of coordination and planning allowed us to focus on each other and the celebration of our marriage on the night of the ceremony and reception which was so wonderful. Lynn especially deserves so much adulation helping us make everything work so well in the toughest of times through COVID-19 and the seemingly constant change of local regulations. Further, the detailed timeline and fantastic communication with us and all of our vendors was appreciated on all fronts. We could not be happier with the work of her and her team.Lynn and the Bliss In Bloom team were beyond fantastic.

Best decision - you wont regret it
My now husband says hiring Bliss in Bloom was the best decision we made. I had to convince him at first why a wedding planner would be incredibly helpful. We lived in the San Francisco Bay Area and were getting married at the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel. Why that isn't reason enough... But now, he tells all of our friends they need to hire Bliss in Bloom for their weddings.
Hawaii held a special meaning for my husband and I, and we knew immediately we wanted to get married at the Mauna Kea Hotel. But we lived halfway across the Pacific Ocean and didn't know where to start. Not only was planning a wedding overwhelming, but planning a wedding during a pandemic added uncertainty to the already overwhelming process.
It was Allison who made our dreams come to life. Planning a wedding during the pandemic with the future unknown, Allison was very attentive, forthcoming, and calm as we planned a wedding with many things uncertain. She assured us that no matter what it will still be a day to remember, made the planning process a lot easier.
Our monthly phone calls and online website made communication and planning so easy. She was incredibly professional throughout the entire process, and the perfect person to be there the day of to help with all of our last minute needs.
Our wedding was the best day of our lives, and thanks to Allison and Bliss in Bloom, it went off without a hitch. Our only problem was that our dance floor was too small!
Our wedding exceeded all our expectations, and came together so well, we are incredibly grateful for the time and effort Allison and her team put into this. We could not have done it without her, and are forever thankful for everything she did.

Stress-free wedding!
One of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding, was to hire Kirsten! When thinking about our wedding, we just wanted to be present and not have to worry about the little things that make up the wedding. We can honestly say that we were not stressed out about our big day, because we knew Kirsten was taking care of it! She took our stress of planning our wedding, and for that we will forever be thankful!
It was easy to give her the key to the night, since she was always professional and always on top of things. We gave her our vision for the wedding, and she made it happen! On top of that, Kirsten dealt with different Covid restrictions being implemented 2 months before our wedding, and every week was something new. Still, we never were worried what our wedding would look like because we knew Kirsten would make it the best it could be! She gave us numerous ideas on what we could do with the new restrictions, and in the end, it all worked out perfectly - exceeding our expectations!
Beyond that, Kirsten and Bliss In Bloom hold themselves accountable so we don’t have too! Words can’t describe how thankful we are with Kirsten for making our dream wedding a reality! If you want a stress-free wedding, in which all you must do is be present and enjoy it, hire them!One of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding, was to hire Kirsten!

Bliss & Bloom for the win!
Our wedding planner, Lynn, basically saved our entire wedding.
We had a major issue 3 hours before the start of the ceremony. It's a really long story, but the venue we had originally booked wouldn't let our officiant in (they weren't on the "guest list"). Lynn also was not "on the list". We panicked and pandemonium ensued. We were not ready to give up on our original spot. We argued and fought with the venue's management for hours, always seemingly only a few minutes away from reaching a deal.
While we were in sheer denial of what was happening, Lynn knew that things were not going to work out. At the last minute, she coordinated an alternative location, on the same beach but about a mile down from where we were originally planning to be. This location ended up being even better and we cannot thank her enough! Bliss & Bloom, you saved us.Our wedding planner, Lynn, basically saved our entire wedding.

Couldn't thank Bliss in Bloom enough
I can't say enough nice things about Allison and Kirsten at Bliss in Bloom and couldn't thank them enough for helping plan our wedding. I had a very difficult time articulating what I wanted and could only provide random Pinterest images and explanations of what I did not want, and they somehow easily spun that into the perfect wedding. They constantly provided me with excellent ideas, quick responses and updates, as well as all around support. I feel like I had people on my side at all times. They made everything feel effortless, fun and stress free, which was always appreciated as I was planning our wedding from out of state. Allison always encouraged me to do what I wanted or what felt right to me and gently reigned me in when necessary. If I so much as mentioned an idea during one of our weekly chats, Kirsten and Allison had a quote lined up within days so that I could decide if it was something I wanted to move forward with. It's obvious in everything they do that they are very experienced and well connected.
The week of the wedding Allison said all the right things, but also backed up what she said with her actions; calmly dealing with my indecisiveness, last minute changes, high winds and Covid issues. Every vendor they recommended and/or provided was wonderful. Bliss in Bloom's day of coordination was movie-like as the team worked discretely throughout the night: the timeline was upheld, our parents and family were always in the right place at the right time and everyone and everything was taken care of. I would not hesitate to recommend the ladies of Bliss in Bloom over and over again and feel so lucky that they were part of my 'Big Day'.I can't say enough nice things about Allison and Kirsten at Bliss in Bloom and couldn't thank them enough for helping plan our wedding.

Covid bride saved by Bliss
Bliss review
Coming from one of the worst-case-scenario COVID brides, Bliss in Bloom are truly the most wonderful wedding planning humans, let me tell you why. Our March 28, 2020 wedding was canceled the day the CDC banned 50 person gatherings. We were 2 days away from leaving. As an ICU nurse, this was an extremely difficult time to not only choose to postpone our dream wedding, but wait in uncertainty. And we waited, and waited, and waited, for months. Hawaii's travel guidelines were not only the most limited but continued far beyond everywhere else.
As things began to slowly open up in Hawaii, we began to pick up the pieces and replan. Throughout the roller coaster emotions, Allison was there with us for it all. She, of all people, more than understood how devastating and frustrating this was for us. She listened, was kind, understanding, supportive, and was above all always patient with us. Responses were always quick, thoughtful, and genuine in giving feedback to help my extreme indecisiveness. I appreciated how positive and fluid her relationships with the other vendors were, and come the day of, all worked together like a well oiled machine (post COVID mind you). This was very telling of how well she ran Bliss in Bloom, operating in a small community who honor and live aloha.
Up until our new big day, many things were still uncertain. Allison was honest in expectations and was prepared for anything to happen. A few days before the wedding, Hawaii required an event form be submitted and approved to have our wedding. Before I could even worry, she was of course on top of it and we were approved. Just to make sure we abided by our paperwork, 9 of Kona's finest police officers made an appearance during the reception (must have been a slow night?). Some guests told me of how Allison was on them at the doorway, paperwork in hand and teeth out ready to defend our wedding day! They joked about being strippers, wished us well, and we got a priceless photo out of it.
In the end, May 1, 2021 was perfect. I have goosebumps sitting here looking back on just how truly perfect it was. I can't help but feel our original date needed to fall apart for the new one to come together. And Bliss in Bloom made that happen. I am overcome with endless gratitude and love for Allison and the Bliss in Bloom team. Did I tell you she even pinned the boutonnière on my groom? On top of the many duties she had that day! Nothing short from above and beyond. It was my second easiest YES I have ever said! Don’t even second guess it, BOOK THEM!Bliss review

I’d give Allison and the team 3009 stars if I could.
I have no words. Honestly Allison pulled my wedding together and made it more amazing than I could imagine. Living in Michigan and planning a wedding DURING A PANDEMIC Was not easy, but she made it easy. Alison and her whole team spent quality time with me and my mother and making sure that all the vendors we had were quality and met our needs. And when they didn’t she fought the battle for us. We had nothing but a beautiful experience with this team especially Alison who really made sure to keep in contact with me and allowed me to use her a little more than I think I probably should’ve. I couldn’t recommend them anymore if I wanted to 1000 starsI have no words. Honestly Allison pulled my wedding together and made it more amazing than I could imagine.
