    This Guest says TORI is THE BEST!

    I was in my friend’s wedding party and could not get over how “on it” Tori is the entire time. She doesn’t miss a beat. I wish my planner had been more like her for our wedding!
    My friend was never stressed while planning her wedding. She was completely calm on her wedding day. Everything was perfect.
    I don’t know how much my friend paid for peace of mind, but I can tell you whatever she paid, it was worth it!
    (My friend is VERY private and does not want her wedding date or photos shared, but trust me, it was stunning and FUN!)

    Worth Every Dollar and More!

    I was a very involved Groom, and while we splurged on our selections, we did have a budget. Tori made sure we had the wedding we envisioned AND that we stayed in budget. Although I did not think I would enjoy the wedding planning process, Elizabeth and I looked forward to our phone meetings with Tori. We just spent Christmas Eve with our family and everyone is still raving about how special our wedding turned out. It was beyond anything we could have imagined, let alone planned and executed on our own. Thank you, Tori! You and your team are fantastic.

    Could not have done this without Tori!

    Tori needs to write a book and do videos about wedding planning. She is the BEST. So refreshing to have someone so transparent and attentive. She actually LISTENED to what we wanted and made it all work. No ask was too big for her. Tori made everything possible for us. She has an extensive and impressive network of professionals who all went above and beyond for us. We always felt comfortable and stress-free when we spoke with Tori, and we never worried about a thing. We knew she had everything under control and would be able to represent us well when making any decisions. She absolutely knows everything about wedding planning and has a comprehensive understanding of everyone's services involved so that nothing is overlooked. From day one, Tori thought of things we never would have considered on our own, so we knew we had made the right decision to hire a planner. Throughout our planning and on the wedding day, we knew Tori would take care of every detail. Little did we know she would also have so many amazing surprising personal touches for us! Our wedding day was the best day ever, and we have Tori to thank for that. We could not have done this without her.

    Guests Agree- 5 Stars!

    Our experience with Tori and her team of miracle workers was nothing short of spectacular.

    My husband and I keep reminiscing about our wedding day, and we agree that we could not have asked for a more perfect wedding day.

    From the day we hired Tori, she made wedding planning so much fun. That doesn't mean I didn't stress when guests didn't respond, or that I wasn't worried about everything because I am a control freak. But, Tori always assured me that she had our best interests at heart and would take care of everything for us.

    I was hesitant to hire a coordinator at first because I was worried that they would take up a lot of our budget. Tori was different from everyone we interviewed. Not only did she save us money, but she even surprised us with little personalized details based on the information in our interview.

    Tori very obviously LOVES what she does and you can easily see how much everyone loves working with her. No matter how many people are coming at her with questions, or how crazy the questions and requests are, she maintains her beautiful smile and tries to accommodate everyone. Her smile and positive energy puts everyone at ease, and she is prepared with anything you might need, from bandaids and sunscreen to cake knife and sewing kits. Don't get me wrong, she is honest and direct so that there is not any miscommunication or misunderstandings. Every detail is documented and she does not miss a beat. But she is FUNNY and FUN, and that energy made it possible for us trust Tori with everything from the day we hired her.

    We are so grateful for Tori's creativity and attention to detail, as well as her straightforwardness and out-of-the-box strategizing to create a wedding day that we are all still referring to as the best day of our lives.

    Made our wedding dreams come true!

    I cannot say enough good things about working with Tori. We had our wedding in a tricky venue on the beach, but Tori was so amazing to work with and made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. Tori was easy to communicate with, was flexible and helped us stay within our budget. Tori truly did a great job of making my vision come to life, and made sure the day of everything ran smoothly so we could just entire our special day. Would absolutely recommend Tori to anyone looking for a wedding planner!

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Monica & Nathan: Thank you so much for trusting me with your incredibly special and BEAUTIFUL wedding day! Your trust in me throughout the planning process made it possible for your celebration to be as amazing as it was. So grateful for that. It means the world to me that you can look back on your day and feel the way you do. And 5, 6, 7, 8! Dance the night away!!! ;-)

    Worth every penny

    AMAZING! Kept amazing control of our fun and rowdy group while still keeping it fun! She made my friend's wedding STUNNING! The whole day ran so smoothly, from getting ready to getting us all out of there on time. Her vendors LOVE HER! They hug and have fun, and she always has a smile. NOTHING stressed her out, not even the weather. Tori never lost her cool and my friend remained calm and collected the entire time! We attend a lot of weddings and I hardly ever see the bride and groom eat or have fun with their friends. Tori made sure they had their drinks and sat to eat, and she made sure there was a lot of time to dance and have fun. I really loved how one part of the wedding flowed to the next part. Incredibly organized, well-timed, and everything aligned beautifully. SO IMPRESSED! A lot of us were saying how we wished she had been our coordinator for our weddings! If you want to get married and have someone who thinks of everything (she shared some great wedding hacks with us!) and handles all of the stress for you, then you need to hire Tori! Her design skills are out of the box and she has the best suggestions to personalize every aspect of your day. Celebrations by Tori is worth EVERY PENNY!!!

    SO MUCH FUN! LOVED YOUR GROUP! Thank you for trusting me and being such an amazing couple! And, thank you for taking the time to write a review.

    Tori was everything I needed

    We worked with Tori for our wedding planning. She was amazinggg, and I can’t recommend her enough . She would let me know if there was anything that would put us over budget and she would suggest something similar but cheaper. She made sure I had nothing to worry about on the day of, and to be honest my wedding was everything I have ever wanted. I had wedding planners telling me my vision was not possible with my budget and Tori made it all possible .

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    What a stunning wedding and fun group!!! Thank you so much for including me in the team of awesome professionals. Stay in touch!

    A magical experience

    If I could give Tori more than 5 stars, I would! Our guests are STILL raving about our wedding and welcome party! We could not have done ANY of it without Tori. One of the things we most appreciated was her honesty about costs. She told us that our budget was not realistic for our vision and she was RIGHT. Even with her discounts, we still went over budget but it was SO WORTH IT! They say you get what you pay for and we paid more than $1000 per guest for the wedding day (60 guests). How much is peace of mind worth to you? Her knowledge and expertise were invaluable. Tori helped us personalize our wedding so it truly stood out from the others. There are many pretty weddings on Maui, but many of them look the same. That is easy to see on IG and Pinterest. Ours was highly personalized and expressed the two of us while including our guests in many interactive experiences. I am sure things went wrong behind the scenes, but we never knew about them. Tori always came out with a smile, even when it was raining, windy, hot beyond belief, and when others were coming at her with a barage of questions. She is calm under pressure and uses humor to get through everything. My bridesmaids were impressed with how calm she kept me because I am a control freak. While Tori is incredibly detail oriented and organized, weather and people can change those plans. She knows all of the ins and outs of the venues, the professionals, and the design, which helped us to make many critical decisions in a timely manner. Even when I had no idea what I wanted, she asked me the right questions to create a vision that I could not articulate. Tori is on site from the time your rentals are delivered to the time they are removed from your venue. When we spoke with one of the rental companies, we were told that she is one of the very few planners who actually do this, which they truly appreciate. Our wedding was a production and she is not only directing others, she is hands-on with everything. It is impressive to watch. Since we got ready at the venue, we were able to observe her all day. You know, you read reviews about people and sometimes question their authenticity. I mean, how does someone like Tori have so many amazing reviews? I am here to tell you the 5 star reviews are 100% truth. The entire planning experience was magical, and it all goes by so quickly on your wedding day. Tori will tell you to look at everything as you make your way down the aisle and take it all in. She will explain that it is like a movie in your head and pass quickly after a year of planning. This could not be truer. If you want someone HONEST, TALENTED, DETAIL ORIENTED, KNOWLEDGEABLE, KIND, EXPERIENCED, HARD-WORKING... someone who goes ABOVE AND BEYOND for you...TORI is your girl! I promise that regardless of what happens to alter your plans on your day, she will work hard to make everything work out according to plan or better. Everything was absolutely amazing and perfect! We are already talking about a vow renewal for our first anniversary!

    OMGosh, Katie, I am blushing. You are so sweet! What a great group and such a fun wedding! Thank you for trusting me!

    Tori is the best. Worth spending the money and go with someone you can rely on.

    Dream wedding in the midst of COVID

    Let me just start this out by saying Tori did an amazing job with our wedding and kept us within COVID compliance. Just weeks before our big day the Governor of Hawaii reinstated their COVID mandate and Tori was on it! She sent in an application to Maui County on behalf of us so we could have the wedding we had been planning for. She ensured a compliance officer took our guests' temperatures and had them sign COVID liability forms upon entry at the venue. If she could make our wedding a dream, it’d be great to see what she could do without having to spend time on COVID mandate compliance.

    My husband and I hired Tori in the middle of wedding planning, after we had our "big ticket" items booked. However, we both reached a point where we knew we were overwhelmed with planning a wedding on Maui living in Washington state. I grew up on Maui and have family/friends who helped us a lot, but none who are professional wedding planners that make you think about every little detail.

    Tori was very gracious not working with her regular vendors and was very honest in her thoughts/recommendations for basically everything. We loved her honesty on our budget and she made fantastic suggestions to keep us within that. She is extremely organized and did well in creating an on-point timeline. She set realistic deadlines for us along the way, which decreased my stress a lot!

    She is very direct in her communication style, which to my mother-in-law, was slightly disrespectful during our rehearsal. HOWEVER, all was well after seeing our Catholic and Persian ceremonies run smoothly, as well as seeing the décor beautifully setup (specifically the Sofreh Aghd). We also thought she was always respectful and professional. Her responses are timely and any time we felt we needed a phone conversation she was able to fit us in within 2-4 days of our request.

    The day of, Tori made sure I didn't stress about anything and kept us on schedule despite me screwing up the start time for our Persian ceremony on our website. Everything looked amazing and she set up all of our personalized items exactly how we wanted. Tori is the planner for you if you want a respectful professional, who listens to what you truly want/need even if you may not know what that is at the moment.

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Thank you so much for your honest and detailed review. I loved everything about your wedding. I am like a mama bear for my couples and definitely wanted your MiL to know that nothing would be "catastrophic" or forgotten. I am highly respectful of people and cultures, and CoVid was definitely a challenge for us all. Thank you for being such an awesome couple. I am so grateful for your trust throughout he process. It was a beautiful, magical day!

    Impeccable

    Working with Tori was a great experience. In the midst of Covid, she made sure our wedding was compliant with regulations which protected us and our guests. Tori handled everything that was necessary to ensure we could get married on the day that we've planned over the last year.

    She knows her stuff, she made us feel comfortable, and was instrumental in the success of our event.

    Many of our guests mentioned that this was the best wedding they've been to and we owe a lot of that success to Tori. I'd recommend her 10 out of 10 times to anyone else.

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Aw, Patrick! You are so sweet and I had such fun planning with you. Thank for entrusting me to plan the Catholic portion, Persian portion, and Hawaiian portion! So many fun and beautiful elements, personalized elements, and traditions all tied up into one fabulous celebration. Continue to have fun on your journey together.

    Could never have done this without Tori!

    If you are looking for someone who really knows her stuff, then go no further than Celebrations by Tori. We were supposed to get married in 2020 and had to reschedule our wedding for 2021. Tori kept us calm and excited the entire time, even though our plans changed a lot of times.

    I hired Tori after already hiring my photographer and picking my venue. Even though Tori had not worked with my photographer before, she was open to working with her and shared all of the wedding details. My photographer said she had never worked with a more organized and detail oriented wedding planner!

    Our guest count changed, our date changed, our details changed, but Tori kept us informed in her summary and never let us feel discouraged. Everyone was surprised at how calm I was on my wedding day (I'm sort of a control freak!) , but I knew Tori and her team had it all under control.

    Go with the flow and enjoy your wedding. It happens once. It happens quickly. She told me before I walked down the aisle to look around and take it all in, because it would be one of the only thing I'd remember and that it happens so quickly. She explained it's like a movie that happens so quickly. She was RIGHT!

    If you are looking for a fluffy "yes" person who makes you think it will all work out but then doesn't make it actually work out, that is not Tori. If you want to know the good, the bad, and the ugly, so you can make the best decision for yourself, then TORI IS YOUR GIRL!

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Jennifer, thank you so much for this. You hit all the big points. I will definitely never lead you astray. You were amazing all the way through, from meet and greet throughout the wedding. Jack loves you SOOOO much and wanted to create an amazing day to remember and cherish forever. Thank you both for trusting me with your Welcome Meet & Greet and Wedding Day productions. They were beyond amazing.

    Amazing, professional, and savvy wedding planner!!

    I'm so thankful I found Tori and her team. I could NOT have planned my wedding without her basically holding my hand the entire way. Our destination wedding in Hawaii was a huge success once I realized I could not do it myself. After choosing our wedding venue we were stuck. Tori explained the contract to us so that we knew what we had to provide. After hiring her for her full service package, we easily planned rentals, flowers, decor, musicians, photographer, videographer, and all of the other tiny details that originally had been a challenge.

    I interviewed A LOT of planners who all say they do this and that. Tori stood out from the beginning. I felt I could trust her. She didn't just say what she thought I wanted to hear, and she wanted to make my wedding about us and tell our story. Tori is kind, organized and extremely detail-oriented. I was so thankful that she thought of details I NEVER would have considered.

    On my wedding day I didn't worry about a thing because I knew she had it handled. From ceremony to reception it was all I imagined and more. Her vendors executed her plan beautifully. If there were problems, I never knew about them. I promised to stay out of her way and let her handle everything. I enjoyed being pampered and being a bride. It has been a month since my wedding and everyone is still talking about how much fun and how beautiful it was.

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Aw, thank you so much Lynn! It was such a pleasure to plan your special day. So glad you and your guests had such an amazing time.

    Tori is amazing!

    Tori is truly amazing!!! Tori made our wedding day the most amazing day ever. She was great about communication, and was available at the most insane hours. I think she is always working! I never had to worry about a single thing on our wedding day. Tori made every detail perfect- beyond my wildest imagination. Our family and friends are STILL talking about how she managed to make our day special even with the COVID rules. She had hand sanitizer for everyone and she even had a person hired to make sure everything was clean and according to the rules at the estate. The flowers were gorgeous. We had delayed our wedding because of COVID and were hesitant to have it in Hawaii because of the travel restrictions. BUT, it ALL worked out and we are so happy we went through with it. A special note...I did some research before the wedding and THOUGHT I had found the right people to hire. Tori gave me the pros and cons of each person we were considering, and we are SOOOO happy we went with her recommendations. Trust her because she KNOWS what she is doing. Thank you, Tori, for making our day the best ever!

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Thank YOU for making it the best day ever! I always say that trust and nice go a long way, and you made it easy. Your guests were so much fun. I hope your honeymoon lasts forever!

    A happy wedding guest

    I attended a wedding that Tori planned and she was truly amazing. I was in absolute awe of how hard she works the entire time and how accommodating she is to everyone. Whatever we needed or requested was handled professionally and expeditiously. My friends who hired her has nothing but positive things to say the whole time they planned their wedding. I could not believe how calm they were! Tori impressed me so much that I am hiring her in California to plan my husband’s birthday party. I can tell you that she is worth the investment

    Celebrations by Tori's reply:

    Thank you, Jacqueline! OMG, that was such a fab wedding AND bday party! Thank you for the opportunity to do both.

    Our wedding day turned out perfect because we chose the right team in Hawaii Weddings by Tori Rogers. Tori went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect down to the tiniest details that added up to make our dream wedding. From the catering, to the flowers, to running out last minute to pick up misplaced items and those forgotten extras. Tori is a "can do" planner that will make all your dreams come true.

    LOVE,

    Tori is amazing!

    We wanted a destination wedding in our favorite place Maui - Tori made this possible and the 4 day wedding event was utterly spectacular - Tori interviewed us first to make sure we were a good fit - then she spent so many hours over the year of planning encouraging, inspiring and guiding us to the best venue and service providers - she had so many brilliant ideas that made the day so special - She personally brought so much uniqueness to our wedding! I can’t imagine having a destination wedding in Hawaii without her! I am very particular and she far exceeded any expectations! We recommend Tori as highly as possible!
    Tony & Jake!

    Worth more than 5 stars!

    Marc and I have been engaged for 5 years and originally wanted to have our wedding at home in New York. It was getting too stressful with everyone wanting to be invited and involved, so we decided to do a smaller wedding in our favorite place of Hawaii. We were not sure which island would be best for us, but Tori helped us to figure that out in less than 5 minutes. She knows SO MUCH about all of the islands, its pros and cons, the different venues and vendors, the climate and activities, etc. that we only needed that 5 minutes with her to know we wanted her to plan our wedding. To freely speak with us and try to get to know us so she could help us before even hiring her???? It was a no brainer. Tori helped us through every step of planning when we hired her for her Total Package. She even gave us resources for some of the things we wanted to get on our own and bring with us, like kimonos for the bridesmaids, a personalized cake topper that coordinated with our theme, invitations, and more. Our wedding day was perfect. I KNOW there were things that happened and I never knew about them. Tori said we were on a NO NEED TO KNOW basis and to only know that everything is handled and perfect. I never ONCE worried or seemed stress, which seemed strange to my friends and family. I am usually a control freak about everything, but I felt totally calm and stress free knowing Tori had our backs and was taking care of everything for us. She worked so well with the hotel we booked for our wedding, including the rehearsal meet and greet and the day after brunch. Oh, and Tori helped us with those, too. We paid her extra but it was worth it!!! Not only is she incredibly detail-oriented, but my friends noticed she did extra things for the wedding to look even more beautiful. By the way, the vendors LOVE HER. They said she was one of their favorite coordinators to work with because she is organized and fun. She even dances a little when she is cleaning up! If you want an organized, detail-oriented. creative, personal, fun wedding planner? Then you need to hire Tori from Hawaii Weddings by Tori Rogers. You will not be disappointed!

    When you hire Tori Rogers to plan your wedding, you are hiring the REAL DEAL! Not only did she have an abundance of great ideas for our wedding, but she kept us on our toes with her very detailed wedding summaries. Tori is incredibly detail oriented and organized, which kept us assured that our wedding was in very capable hands. When my friends asked why I was so calm on my wedding day, I just said that Tori had my back and I knew she would take care of anything that came up, and she did! Tori and her team of incredible professionals worked together to make our wedding beyond perfect. Everything was BETTER than we expected. She took the few ideas I presented to her and made our entire vision come to life. It helped that SHE was not stressed on our day because that kept me calm. My friends told me they had wished she had been their wedding coordinator because she was THAT fantastic. Tori is not a YES person, and we appreciated her direct and honest approach that she describes on her website. We trusted her immediately. Her extensive knowledge of the island and the vendors impressed us from our initial conversation. I especially liked that I was not passed around to different people in her company and only planned with her the entire time. She never complained about the many emails I sent, or my phone calls and texts. I knew she was planning other weddings, too, but she always made me feel important and like a priority. I know she is only taking a few weddings next year because of her book, so if you are lucky enough to hire her, HIRE HER!!!

    MAHALO!!! Your love is definitely the real deal! Thank you for taking the time to write this review. You rock! Keep in touch!
    Aloha,

    Tori assured us from the beginning that our wedding would be just as we imagined, and she definitely delivered! We had never been to Hawaii so we were doing all of our venue scouting and vendor ordering remotely. Tori recommended a flower supplier that gave us exactly the flowers we asked for. Our wedding was VERY focused on flowers (petals on the aisle, flowers on the back of each quest chair and on the chuppah, flowers on the cake table, etc.), so this was probably the most important part to get right and the flowers were stunning. Besides that, Tori got us the right chairs, farm tables for our guest welcome, cake, and water stations, and provided her own nice water dispensers for infused water. She also recommended the PERFECT officiant and ukulele player! On the day of the wedding, Tori was on site early with hired help to set everything up. It was ready promptly as guests arrived and Tori kept everything on time through a VERY TIGHT schedule at the venue. In the end, even though the day was over in a whirlwind, we thought we had the beautiful wedding of our dreams and can't wait to get our pictures. Many of our guests said they decided they will never see a more beautiful wedding. Thank you Tori!!

    My wife was at ease, which made ME at ease!

    Loved our wedding. Tori was impressive. She kept us within our budget while creating the vibe and look we wanted for our wedding day. She put my wife at ease, which put ME at ease. I always felt she was honest with us about the quality and costs of the people she hired for our wedding, and I truly appreciated that. Our guests are still raving about the day and all of the personal touches Tori encouraged us to include.
