Tim G. Sent on 01/03/2023Dream wedding at stunning venue with amazing coordinator
Loulu Palm was an absolute dream location for our wedding. The North Shore of Oahu is such a beautiful location and Loulu Palm takes full advantage of it. Although conveniently located on the highway, it feels completely isolated and private, with a stunning beach location and gorgeous grassy area and huge lanai. Everyone who arrived was in awe of the location. The team at Loulu Palm were amazing to work with. Lynn and Nickie were so helpful and kind, particularly when we had to change our date about 5 times due to the pandemic! Our wedding would not have happened without the support and care of our planner, Linda Kress, though. Her advice was top notch, she always kept us calm no matter what, recommended the most amazing vendors to us that all did a superb job and went above and beyond to make our vision for our wedding come true. She also had beautiful touches we wouldn't have even thought of - live cutting of coconuts on arrival, a malasada truck, an Aloha sign that looked so good on the hill. On the day she was amazing at making sure everything ran smoothly so that we didn't have to worry about the details. We couldn't more highly recommend Loulu Palm! -

Breathtaking Venue
Loulu Palm Farm Estate was absolutely breathtaking and the perfect place for our wedding. I had only done a virtual tour beforehand, and while it looked beautiful online, it is even better in person—truly stunning and it did not disappoint at all.
The vendor list provided by the venue is excellent, and I’ve been getting amazing feedback from our guests, as well as from people who have only seen our videos and photos. Everyone keeps saying how gorgeous the location is.
Adding Ashley as our wedding coordinator was hands down the best decision we made. She is a must. Ashley helped me so much throughout the planning process, always answering questions and guiding us every step of the way. On the wedding day, when our baker completely forgot to make our wedding cake, Ashley immediately stepped in, coordinated a replacement cake, secured us a full refund, and truly advocated for us. She even encouraged the baker to send an apology gift—we ended up finding a treat box waiting for us at our hotel after the wedding.
Ashley went above and beyond, and her support made all the difference. Loulu Palm Farm Estate is a gorgeous venue, and with the right coordinator, it becomes an unforgettable experience. I couldn’t recommend this place more. -

There are no words for how beautiful this venue truly is. For those looking to embrace the true mana of Hawai'i, you'll get a backdrop of beautiful mountains, palms, and sea. We also used rentals through the venue that helped streamline the coordination of the event. Less stress is better! We did not feel anything was missing from our day.
Ashley Fennell, coordinator -- We used Ashley for full year planning, and I cannot stress enough how truly incredible she is. Attentive, organized, responsive, KIND. She loves her job and is dedicated to making your special day the best you'll ever have. Friends and family couldn't stop saying "best wedding ever" and that's because of her. She has endless contacts and all of our vendors also stated how much they love working with her. I couldn't even muster stress on my wedding day because I knew she would handle everything. Every star goes to her!! -

We are so grateful for everything that made our wedding day absolutely perfect! From the very first conversation with our day-of coordinator, Ashley, we hit it off—it felt like talking to a friend we had known for years. As first-time wedding planners relying heavily on Google, we were nervous about the process, but Ashley guided us through everything, answered all our questions, and made time for us whenever we needed. On the day itself, she made everything run flawlessly, handled every detail behind the scenes, and even came prepared with a Tide pen when I had a stain on my dress! Her warmth, professionalism, and genuine care made us feel completely at ease, and it honestly felt like she was part of our family.
Loulu Palms was the venue of our dreams, with breathtaking ocean views, lush greenery, and a serene, romantic atmosphere that created the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. Nickie, our venue contact, was wonderful to work with—kind, accommodating, and so attentive to every detail. Everything came together seamlessly, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how stunning the space was.
We couldn’t imagine a more beautiful venue or a more caring, capable coordinator to bring our wedding vision to life. Ashley and Loulu Palms (with Nickie’s guidance) truly made our day magical, and we cannot recommend them highly enough!

Our wedding at Loulu Palm was an absolute dream come true. The venue is breathtaking — intimate, peaceful, and perfectly set right by the beach. It gave us the magical, tropical atmosphere we always wanted.
Nickie was a joy to work with. She was super helpful throughout the planning process, especially when it came to coordinating all of our rentals and paperwork. Her attention to detail and responsiveness made a huge difference, and we always felt supported.
Ashley, our full wedding planner, was a total lifesaver. As very Type B people who hate planning, we were dreading the process — but Ashley made it easy, organized, and even fun. She kept us on track with monthly and weekly check-ins and handled every detail with care. She created a detailed timeline and made sure everything was lined up perfectly — and we never once felt overwhelmed. She went above and beyond to make sure we had our vision come to life.
The day of the wedding was seamless — everything ran smoothly, and we were able to fully enjoy every moment without stress. Ashley took care of everything behind the scenes, and it showed. Hire her!
We’re beyond grateful for Ashley, Nickie, and the entire team at Loulu Palm. Thank you for giving us the perfect wedding! -

Beautiful venue and amazing staff!
We had an absolutely amazing experience having our wedding at Loulu Palm. From the moment we toured the venue, we felt such a warm and welcoming energy from the staff, and our wedding day turned out to be everything we dreamed of, we wouldn’t change a single thing. Whenever I had a question, Nickie was always quick to respond by phone or email and was so helpful throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Ashley, our day of coordinator, made everything seamless and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy every moment from start to finish. The venue itself is breathtaking, and our guests are still raving about how stunning it was! -

My partner and I got married at Loulu palm a few weeks ago and we are so incredibly grateful for Ashley and everything she did to make our wedding day run smoothly. From the very beginning, she was professional, calm, and reassuring, and she truly stepped up in every way possible—especially when it came to all the last-minute changes.
No matter what unexpected issue came up, Ashley handled it with grace and confidence. She coordinated seamlessly with our vendors, managed the wedding equipment arrangements, and made sure every detail was accounted for. Thanks to her, we were able to fully enjoy our day without worrying about what was happening behind the scenes.
Ashley’s dedication, communication, and ability to stay composed under pressure truly made a difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better lead coordinator. Thank you, Ashley, Nickie and staff for helping us bring everything together and for being such a calm and reliable presence during such an important moment in our lives.
With gratitude,
Christine & KC -

Larisa Sent on 10/31/2024An absolute dream wedding venue
I cannot say enough AMAZING things about Loulu Palms along with Nickie and Ashley. We had our wedding here 9/19/24 and it was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. From the very beginning (I booked them in September of 2023) they were extremely prompt with responses and any questions I had they were so helpful with answering. Nickie was wonderful throughout the entire process.
The venue/ grounds speak for itself because come on you can see how incredibly gorgeous it already is but yet somehow they found a way to make it even more stunning and made my wedding vision come to life. They have everything you need to rent and could want, and if they don't they can easily direct you to where you can. They made everything from rehearsal, to set up, to day of so incredibly easy and smooth. I 10/10 recommend them and would get married here all over again if I could.
Now onto Ashely. I COULD NOT AND WOULD NOT HAVE made it through my wedding week/ day without her. From our first conversation on the phone while I was deciding which day of coordinator to go, we clicked immediately. Whenever I reached out with a mini crisis or question through out the entire process she was so quick to respond and was so incredibly helpful no matter what it was about. I was able to be fully present and enjoy every single second of our wedding because I knew she was there handling everything. She understood my vision and executed it PERFECTLY. You can tell some people are made to be in this industry and she with her beautiful soul is absolutely one of them. She's such a gem of a human. I promise you, you will NOT regret going with Nickie, Ashely, and the entire Ohana at Loulu Palm. We cannot wait to go back and visit. -

Lucas Sent on 10/14/2024Best Day Ever.
We got married at Loulu Palm on September 14th 2024 and it was everything we dreamed of...and then some! From the first moment we stepped foot on Loulu we knew it was the one for us. But that was just the beginning- because shortly after meeting Nickie, we then met with Ashley (the best wedding coordinator on planet earth). Again, after just a couple minutes of chatting with her, we knew she was such a perfect fit for us and felt like we had already known her for years. So it wasn't even a question for us- but if it is for you- my advice would be to just do it. Without Ashley, our special day would not have even come close to how perfect everything was. Not to mention all the weeks and months leading up to it- I love how she always kept it real with us throughout the entire process (with timelines, vendor recommendations, design, layout, cost, etc), but with the most warmth and grace one could possibly have. Ashley is now our dear friend and we cannot wait to come back to visit one of our favorite places. 10/5 stars on both Ashley and Nickie and Loulu Palms!!!! -

Gianni Sent on 07/01/2024PERFECT venue for the most perfect day
We had our wedding at Loulu Palm on June 14, 2024. We booked our venue before we got to see it in person, and it was even more beautiful than we thought it would be! The greenery, the ocean, and the privacy was just perfect for our special day. The backdrop of all of our photos and videos was just perfect. The size of the venue is perfect because it is big enough to have the grand, beautiful vibe, while still feeling so intimate. Nickie and Ashley were both so helpful and welcoming. We really felt so special on our wedding day.
You absolutely have to book Ashley as your coordinator! She is AMAZING! My wedding day was PERFECT and I was able to have so much fun and enjoy it thanks to Ashley. I did not have to worry for one second because she had everything handled. She is truly a master of her craft. She loves what she does and it is so evident with the amount of work and care she pours into couples. I don’t know how anyone gets married without her! As soon as she stepped in for coordination, I had my full trust in her. She is organized, prompt, and just fun to talk to. I will keep in touch with Nickie and Ashley because we can’t wait to visit Loulu Palm again for an anniversary trip!

Destination wedding!
Words cannot describe how amazing of a wedding my husband and I had here at loulu palms. We have never been to Hawaii and were planning a destination wedding. I found loulu palm and thought it was a gorgeous venue. Let me tell you, it’s WAY better in person! It’s beautiful. From the mountain-y vibe to the beach vibe your views are amazing. Nickie was so kind and helpful and during the whole process she was very responsive and accommodating. Ashley Fennell was our wedding coordinator and she was amazing. From the first phone conversation with her to the end of the wedding night. I truly could’nt have done it without her! She was so down to earth and sweet. EVERYONE in my family adored her. She did everything for me and I just seriously cannot get over this venue, the owner, and my coordinator! I had the wedding of my dreams here, I only wish I could come back and relive it all. -

Our Wedding Dreams Come True!
Our first trip as a couple was to Hawaii and we immediately fell in love with the culture, people, beautiful scenery and much more! So when we got engaged it was without question that we had to have a destination wedding in Hawaii! We made a trip out to meet up with a few venues so we could decide who to choose from. However, Loulu was the first and last tour we did. Lynn was so nice and showed us around. The second we hit the corner to the backyard, the view completely took our breath away. We loved how spacious it was, all the gorgeous greenery, the calmness of the beach. We knew we found our venue and did not need to look further. We worked with Nickie to book the venue. She was so informative and easy to work with. We were then introduced to Ashley, our wedding coordinator. We had our initial chat through with her and right after we got off the phone, we both agreed that we had to have her as our coordinator. Ashley is one of the most genuine people we have met. She truly cares about her couples and gives different options to meet your interests. If you had any questions or concerns no matter how you contacted her via phone, text, email she would respond so quick! We honestly were not as stressed as I felt I should have been going through this wedding planning process because working with Ashley was so seamless. She also gave great recommendations for vendors which we believe really completed the entire vibe of our wedding! Day of wedding was everything we could have imagined and more! Thanks Loulu team for making our vision and dream come to life! -

Beautiful Wedding Venue
LouLu Palm was so amazing! Not only is the location private and scenic but the staff was wonderful too! Ashley Fennel was an amazing day of coordinator and did a fantastic job of bringing our wedding day together. We got so many compliments on the venue! They were easy to work with and were responsive and timely. I would highly recommend booking your wedding here! -

I Do in Paradise
I could not have found a better place to have our wedding at. The venue was beautiful since we arrived. Greenery started since the gate with flowers everywhere and the sound of the wave! I'm not going to lie I burst out in tears when we walked throw the back doors and I saw the whole thing in person for the first time!! From booking to planning to the actual day everything was smooth and stress free. We were on a tight budget and Ashley made it possible to still have a wedding in paradise and not burn a whole in our pockets. She made it so easy and fun. When we got there the day off even though we were running a bit late she made me fell calm and relaxed she kept telling me not to worry and that she had everything covert and she sure did!! We had a whole room to get ready the room was a good size and it was just me getting ready in it. It did have AC which was PERFECT! One thing I would recommend it use the whole day! We had it from 11 am to 11 pm but didn't start until 4 pm so I would say have an early ceremony so you don't have to rush anything and just enjoy the time!
We had the following Vendors:
Bartender: Recommend by Ashley Issac (He was the BEST and every one loved him)
DJ: David Asing (I was a little upset with him because he messed up our first dance but we just went with it. I'm sure there was just some miscommunication he was pretty basic but it was good for the cheap price, we also got the fire dancers and drum players with him which were GREAT but they were 2 hours late and even though we paid for 15 min I'm positive they weren't even there for 10 min, but over all the guys were great and our guest LOVED the surprise.
Catering: Keneke's Bluesky catering(also in the recommendation from Ashley) (I have not express how AMAZING THE FOOD WAS!!!! And not to mention within our budget!! I had made so many changes and Carmela was the one who helped me every step of the way!! They even let us take the left overs home and the staff was great!! Seriously everyone kept telling us how this was the only wedding they had every gone to that had GREAT food!! We had the following;
Keneke's "Sit Down Serve" Wedding Special
1 Meat Choice: Hibachi White Meat Chicken
4 Pupu Choices:
1. Shoyu Poke 2. Mango Chicken Skewers
3. BBQ Pork Skewers 4. Shrimp Cocktail
1 Salad Choice: American Iceberg (can we get Ranch with this)
1 Bread/Roll Choice: Traditional Butter Rolls
2 Starch Choices:
1.Garlic Red Potatoes 2. Yakisoba
Wedding Day of Coordinator: Ashley Fennell (AMAZING)
Wedding Officiant: Kalona Ortiz, she was great and I was able to create the whole ceremony from drafts she gave me. Also for a good price
Cake: A Cake Life, the cake was a little more expensive than what I was hopping for especially since it was a small 2 tier cake. BUT it was so worth it and they got it SPOT ON to what the picture I had send them and the flavor was ALL there besides me only getting ONE bite for the picture it was amazing and everyone kept saying so. We had the (1) 2 tier cake small serves 20-30 Round 6" vanilla chocolate marble cake with chocolate cream and fresh raspberry filling Round 8" yellow butter cake with fresh strawberry cream filling. Shades of teal smooth-ish/ stucco-ish buttercream icing
We kept it super simple and didn't do much decorating as the location itself was enough! Don't worry so much about the materialism or decorations just focus on the love in the air and having your loved ones there to celebrate your love!! -

A magical wedding venue!
Loulu Palm is such a special place and made all of our wedding dreams come true! I loved working with Nickie throughout the whole process and she was so patient and accommodating with helping us to finalize our wedding rental inventory list. There are very few places on island where you are able to have both an ocean view on one end, and some of the mountains behind you on the other - it is truly a magical place for beautiful memories to be made! -

Amazingly perfect !!!!
I read some reviews and I honestly couldn’t disagree more. This venue has EVERYTHING! The beauty, the beach, the weather, the history and also was rustic yet modern with such an aloha vibe. You can get your venue, coordinator and equipment/ decor from the same place. Ashley Fennell was my coordinator and she was absolutely amazing. All my guest complimented how great and easy she made everything feel. She wasn’t scared to get the boys in line and listening, she honestly felt like family and treated us the same. She made all my stress and worry feel easy and effortless on my day. Truly a special place and every single 90 guest I had on this destination wedding won’t stop telling me how perfect it all was ! If I could relive my wedding everyday there I would without hesitation! -

Justin Sent on 10/12/2022Highly recommend! Wonderful location
We had our wedding at Loulu Palm in July and it was an amazing experience that we will remember forever; We were blown away by this place. The venue is very beautiful and serene on the north shore of Oahu that is far enough away from anything that it more or less has its own private beach. Our coordinator was Ashley, who was extremely helpful and with us 100% throughout the process. We planned the wedding from Texas, so we relied heavily on her recommendations for other vendors making the entire experience smooth and absolutely wonderful. She was extremely easy to work with and we had no issues at all. We highly recommend Loulu Palms & Ashley for anyone looking to have their wedding here. -

Chinasa Sent on 02/07/2022Spectacular Venue and Island's BEST Coordinator
I decided to use Loulu Palm for my wedding venue and the pictures do not do this venue justice. The views are breathtaking. I also decided to use Linda Kress as my Day of Coordinator for my October 2021 wedding. I want to start out by saying Linda made my husband and me feel like we were family from the first moment we spoke to each other! She is patient, kind, thoughtful and always found a way to make me feel at ease. Planning a wedding during the uncertainty of a pandemic was probably one of the most difficult tasks I have conquered in my life. I was also a nervous wreck with deciding how to navigate a wedding with Hawaii’s change in wedding guest requirements during the pandemic. But Linda took all of my fears away by creating potential scenarios as well as a timeline for each. She was also always quick to respond via email or text. Linda also, found a way to help me stay under budget. On the day of wedding, Linda and her team kept everyone on schedule, she made accommodations for each vendor, and she always made sure my husband and I remembered to eat throughout the day! I would 10/10 recommend Linda, don’t even waste your time looking for anyone else. -

Nicole Sent on 08/17/2021The wedding of our dreams!!!
We chose Loulu Palm as our wedding venue because of the amazing view and location. What made it even better was having Linda Kress as our wedding coordinator. Planning to have my wedding back home, while living in Austin TX, was a bit of a challenge. Not to mention the 5hr time zone difference and the uncertainties of the ongoing pandemic. But Linda has been such a blessing through all of it, being very flexible and resourceful, constantly checking in to make sure we were on top of everything. She gave so many awesome suggestions and helpful tips to keep within our budget. Linda and her assistants also definitely put in the manual labor on the day of, too; making sure the decorations and equipment were all perfect. And even bringing my husband and I pupus while we took formal photos, so we didn't miss out on any of it during the cocktail hour. The vendors (Keneke's, Cortney Crane Events, Akahi Productions, Red Ring Media, Reveal Hair and Makeup, etc.) she recommend were also spectacular! Hearing my friends and family rave over the execution of the wedding and the location was the cherry on top of such a tough year for so many of us. If I could have a wedding here again and again, I would!!! (Photos attached are by Schyne Photography). -

Jack Sent on 07/29/2021An Intimate Day at an Otherworldly Venue…With the Help of a Kick-Ass Wedding Planner
Our special day at Loulu Palm was nothing short of amazing, thanks in large part to our wedding planner, Linda Kress. Linda was everything (and more) we could have ever asked for in a wedding planner. She was chock full of creative ideas and solutions to help turn our disparate—often incoherent—visions and daydreams for our big day into a reality. She gave us honest recommendations on the vendors, furniture, equipment, etc. she thought were best suited for our event – frequently checking in with us along the way to ensure we stayed within the confines of our budget and helping us adjudicate our “ABSOLUTELY need-to-haves” and our “nice-to-haves.” She kept us on task – often, and I mean often (because we needed it), reminding us to reach out to “so and so” vendor” by “so and so” date to ensure we got “so and so” done. She was on it! But what we appreciated most about Linda was her character. She was warm, kind, funny, and easy to talk to (traits that helped neutralize the inevitable stresses and “what-ifs” that arise when planning a wedding). She truly embodies what it means to live with “Aloha Spirit.” We had the pleasure of getting to know Linda very well over more than a year period, as state-issued COVID restrictions forced us to postpone our wedding, then required that we scale down our guest list. When my wife and I ultimately opted to use the venue for a 5-hour long “styled photoshoot” instead of a full-on ceremony & reception (we had snuck in a small, intimate, wedding on the mainland by this point), Linda was fully supportive and helpful in hearding our boutique furniture and cake vendors in place to provide cool settings & props for our shoot.
Loulu Palm is your quintessential vintage Hawaiian plantation getaway, replete with an indescribable unique character and feel. The venue is flanked by a pristine private beach on one side and views of a densely forested mountain range on the other. A long stretch of well-manicured grass and palm trees populate the center. The site rests at a perfect vantage point to watch the world-famous North Shore sunsets. Can’t recommend this venue enough to prospective bride and grooms! Your guests will be mystified by this authentic-Hawaii atmosphere –a great respite from tourist-inundated Waikiki. Oh—and this probably goes without saying—but if you do choose Loulu Palm...also choose Linda Kress to serve as your wedding coordinator! -

Linda and the Loulu Palm staff were so amazing to work with. We just had our wedding last week and we can't stop thinking about how beautiful the venue is and how effortless the staff made our special day seem. Linda, is the DOC but has helped in so many ways, from day 1. She listens, helps couples work within budget, is well connected, and can offer suggestions or alternatives to fit your needs. All the vendors and our guests can't stop raving about how perfect our night was. We hope to visit as guests at this incredible venue in the future. F I V E stars and a big mahalo nui to everyone who made our night unforgettable. -

Jenny Sent on 03/05/2020Absolutely perfect
This venue and our wedding coordinator, Linda Kress, were an absolute DREAM. If you’re looking to get married in Hawaii stop here. It was far better than I could have even imagined. From the very first time I contacted Linda I knew it was going to be an amazing experience. She made great suggestions and was realistic about staying on our budget. She was attentive and helped walk me through every step of the planning and made the actual wedding day seamless and perfect. She kept a smile on my face and I always felt like she was in my corner. She even stayed in touch with us days after the wedding so that we could come plant a palm tree at the venue to give us an excuse to come visit. Thank you Linda for making our day so magical and something we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
As far as the venue... it was so stunning. We got married in front of the beach with the water in the backdrop. It was actually really nice because everyone didn’t have to get sandy unless they wanted to. The florals were so dreamy too. It was extra windy and a little rainy that day so Linda did some quick thinking and put our reception under this gorgeous tent with beautiful lighting. It really was so magical. -

Joseph Sent on 03/05/2020Professional, but personal. Spacious, but intimate. Affordable, but glamorous.
As the groom, all I could do in a lot of instances was watch my soon to be wife be stressed out. Our families were making it hard, our finances were making it hard, our anxiety was making it hard. But once we got off that plane and Linda came to see us face to face, that stress went away. The personal touch and attention she gave us was unlike anything I expected, and have never had before. She was prompt and professional, but kind and relatable. She not only kept our finances where they needed to be, but also gave us real talk about what we actually did and didn't need-all while keeping a smile on our faces. Throughout the whole process, she was there. She kept us on point, under budget, and overjoyed. She kept in contact with us via phone and text before, during the wedding she was always nearby for anything we needed, and even arranged for us to plant a tree at our venue days after the ceremony. There aren't enough good things I can say about her and her work ethic. Everything we needed, she supplied, and everything we didn't know we needed, she thought of. If you hate money and love stress, look elsewhere. But if you want everything to be perfect, cost efficient, and with a loving personal touch, this is the woman you want on your side.
Now, the venue was absolutely perfect. It was spacious while still having a very intimate feel about it. The beach in one direction was immaculate. The mountains in the background of the other direction were breathtaking. And the trees and plants surrounding the venue were lush and beautiful. There was a hammock, lawn games, a fire pit and chairs. The arch they provided for the ceremony was lovely, the chairs for guests to sit in were comfortable and organized perfectly. Plenty of well maintained bathroom space was very important to me, and they definitely had that covered. The house and the suites for bride and groom were all temperature controlled and homey-just the thing stressed out bridal parties need. They were able to get us a clear tent set up for the reception which was amazing to be under when the rain came down. The DJ, bartenders, and food left everyone impressed and me and my wife stuffed, drunk, and happy. The venue was more perfect than I could have imagined, and the staff from head to toe was fun and professional. More importantly than anything else though, they made my wife happy and satisfied. By pleasing her, they pleased me, but the Loulu Palm Farm Estate went far above and beyond what was expected, and did far more than others could or would provide. If you're getting married, get married here. Itll be the best choice you can make. -

From the moment the private gates swing open, past the happily ever after swing, you are drawn through the property across the lawn, the beach and into the sunset in the ocean.
It was an event that none of our guests will soon forget. They are leaning on us to go back every year to restate our vows as an excuse to re-live the dream. -

If you are still looking for avenue to get married in Hawaii, you should stop right now, Loulu Palm is everything you are looking for and more! We love the place,it is romantic, is beautiful and it does speaks all the Hawaiian vibe you look for when you decide to get married in paradise. Also Linda Kress is a God sent, she was with us since the day we hired her as our day of coordinator. We had so much fun planning our wedding with her assistance, all the vendors that she recommended did a great job, and went beyond out expectations, also she made our dream wedding happened in our budget, can it be better then that? We love everything about our big day, Linda and her assistant Lynn with all the Staff were AMAZING, our family and friends still talk about the day as the most beautiful wedding in the most magical place they have ever been! -

The most beautiful venue!
My cousin got married at Loulu Palm a really long time ago and when I attended his wedding, I was in love with the venue and dreamt of getting married there one day so Loulu Palm was always at the top of my list when it was finally my turn. This was the perfect because I always wanted to get married on the beach but my husband didn't want to get married in the sand so this was a great compromise (if you can even call it a compromise). You get married with the ocean behind you and you also have all the beautiful Hawaii landscape around you, all in your own very private estate. This was a semi-destination wedding, we live in Los Angeles but a lot of my family is in Hawaii so hiring a coordinator was very necessary for me in order to do this from afar. I hired Linda Kress based on other recommendations and she did not disappoint! She is a MUST HIRE and some sort of wedding superhero. She is really on top of her game. She had great recommendations for vendors and she just made the whole process so much easier and less stressful. Definitely recommend the venue for a nice private ceremony and reception. The whole thing was really easy from start to finish as far as communication, setting up times to view the venue and meet with Linda etc. I also really liked having everything in one place. I wish I could do it all over again...the day, not the planning part :) We are still reliving our special day over and over again. -

Gem in a Rough
Loulu Palm is gem in a rough. Heading down the north shore, you would not think that there was a beautiful place like Loulu. Coming from San Diego, we were very picky on the venues we looked at in Oahu. A lot of couples get married in Waikiki or Honolulu just to say they got married in Hawaii. The amount of money you spend having a wedding there can go a long way if you get married at Loulu. The day we took a tour of the place, we knew we wanted to get married here. We did go over our budget but it is well worth the money. Also, having Linda Kress (Day Of Coordinator) by our side the whole way made the whole experience even better. She's a "Day of Coordinator" but she is with you from the day you choose her till days after the wedding. We trusted her with all her suggestions and recommendations. She is a must in your wedding planning. You will not regret choosing Loulu Palms as your wedding venue. There were times that communication was a problem due to us being in the mainland during the process. But our questions were always answered in due time. My wife and I highly suggest Loulu Palms. -

This venue is the best thing to happen since sliced bread. It's tucked away so well that you'll probably miss it on your way there, but once you get through the gate, it's like stepping into another world. The beachfront is amazing, the greenery is sprawling, and the building itself is so versatile. You can't make a bad photo here! -

Yuki and I are a couple from New York City (5,000 miles away!) and we were looking to get married back to where my wife was born, Hawaii. At first, I was a little hesitant because of my style of face-to-face interaction with our vendors--so we booked a trip to Hawaii a year prior to meet with our potential partners.
Once we met with Linda Kress, it was a done deal. She was professional, personable (very genuine and sweet), and one of the most helpful people during our journey into marriage. We knew right away that she would be a big part of our wedding. With her help, numerous voice calls, as well as the assurance that we were pacing according to our wedding date--we were able to pull of the wedding of our dreams at the Loulu Palm Estate. Distance did not matter with her guidance.
Honestly, of all the investments we had with our big day, Linda and the Loulu Palm had the best return. If you want the best, look no further than Linda and her team. -

Kathleen Sent on 11/21/2018Beautiful private venue with amazing coordinator
This has been long overdue but needed to highly recommend this beautiful venue along with our amazing day of coordinator, Linda Kress. My husband and I decided to get married on the infamous wedding day of this year, 8/18/2018. We wanted a destination wedding and booked Loulu Palm a year and a half in advance and we have no regrets. The venue is perfect especially if you are looking for a private ceremony and reception by the beach. Knowing we had a very popular wedding date, we didn’t want to take a risk of booking at a hotel with multiple weddings happening all at the same time. We wanted the private venue with the beach and Aloha vibes for our 90 out of town guests.
We didn’t get a wedding coordinator initially but booked our vendors based on what we liked in the months leading up to the wedding. About a month and a half before the wedding, we booked our day of coordinator, Linda Kress, and we could not recommend her enough. We sent her the list of vendors we booked and told her the feel of what we wanted for the wedding and she gave us exactly what we wanted and more. We had unexpected rain the day of our wedding and she was able to figure out how to fit our tables and dance floor inside our tent to accommodate the weather since we planned for an outside dance floor. Linda basically put all the vendors, details, and special touches together. She thought of the all the things that I never even realized we needed. All of the wedding planning was made easy even while planning in California by having Linda as our coordinator. My only regret is not booking her soon enough. Linda made our wedding an amazing day my husband and I will never forget. Three months later, even our guests still talk about how great the wedding was and how beautiful everything turned out, rain and all. All of this was made possible thanks to Linda and her wedding magic and of course, to the beautiful Loulu Palm Estate.

Our wedding was held at Loulu Palm and it was worth every penny! The venue is even better in person with the blue tropical water and mountain backdrop! If you are looking for true Hawaiian wedding with beach front and garden outdoor reception plus privacy, this is the venue for you. LLP are also extending their own rentals so that's a plus to save some headache in finding vendors! We had worked with Nickie and she was amazing in answering all my questions and concerns. She was always there for me to make any changes! Overall, I couldn't be more satisfied with the service and the beauty of this venue! I would do it all over again if I could! -

What a magical place. Birds, rainbows, the ocean waves, the gorgeous greenery. Nickie met with us to show us the property and really gave us a good idea for what we could do there. Their Instagram account is a great resource for ideas and vendors too.
Once we booked, we hired Linda Kress (HIRE HER!) as our day-of coordinator, but she is so much more than that. Her recommendations were spot on. Her creative ideas were beyond what I would have come up with and truly enhanced the day. She is conscious of the budget and makes sure that she’s getting you solid deals. She’s honest too, and planning this on my own, I really needed that. On our wedding day, she handled hiccups with creativity and calm. She followed up with vendors after the wedding and made sure that my husband and I were well taken care of. We loved our wedding and she was very much responsible for the great time had by all.
Another note for the venue, they are prepared. It rained a bit during the course of the wedding day (as it will in Hawaii, but it’s good luck!) and they were ready with umbrellas for guests, tents for vendors, etc. Everything was covered.
Overall, a fantastic experience. We still tear up thinking about it. Thank you Loulu, Nickie and Linda! -
Jessica Sent on 10/13/2017Where to begin! My husband and I got married at Loulu Palm back in June of 2017 and it was by far the best day of our lives. We owe a huge thank you to Linda Kress and Loulu Palm for making our dreams of getting married by the water surrounded by lush greenery come true. Even though Linda called herself Day of Coordinator she stepped in months before giving amazing advice helping us to save money where we could. Her warmth drew us in but her organization kept us sane and on schedule. Our wedding was no easy task, we had a certain vision and she did everything in her power to make that vision come to life, which she did and even surpassed our expectations! Her knowledge of the island and vendors was so important since we were planning from California. She had a "no worries"attitude and even if she was worrying she didn't let me know as to not stress out the bride which is so appreciated! I'm so thankful we chose Loulu Palm because of it's beautiful landscape, spacious setting where you get to make it completely your own, and working with such wonderful people! If you are questioning which venue on the North Shore you want to use as your Venue I urge you to choose Loulu Palm and have the privilege of having Linda coordinate your very special day. Our guests continue to tell us how it was the best wedding they have been to because of the gorgeous grounds and because of how smoothly everything ran, when things go smoothly everyone is able to have much more fun! <3
