    She was a DREAM to work with

    Let me begin by saying that my fiance and I were planning a destination wedding on the Big Island and I was referred to Danielle by a family friend. Danielle and I emailed back & forth since October 2019 and she was very diligent, professional and kind during my crazy times (and constant emails and questions)! She worked with me when it came to rescheduling our wedding not only once, but TWICE due to the pandemic. Did I mention that Danielle was also far into her pregancy while working together, and I had no idea until she mentioned it to me in passing ! I still felt as if I was one of her main priorities. She helped make the process so much easier for us, especially when I myself is not only an over-thinker, but was also trying to plan a wedding on an island we were unfamilier with. I would HIGHLY recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a professional, kind and efficient wedding planner!

    Amazing. Wonderful. Dream work

    Let me begin by saying that my fiance and I were planning a destination wedding on the Big Island and I was referred to Danielle by the wedding coordinator I was working with. Danielle and I emailed back & forth since October or November 2019 and she was extremely professional and went above and beyond for us on our big day! She continually kept me in the loop throughout the process of a flower shipment not making it, but then going out of her way to make sure the flowers were there. I still felt as if I was one of her main priorities. She helped make the process so much easier for us! I would HIGHLY recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a professional, kind and efficient wedding florist, cake baker, and wedding decor!

    Put people above the business

    I have emailed Danielle about my upcoming wedding and even though she was not available for the date, she went out of her way to help me and gave me the contacts of people and companies whom I was missing. I am very happy that I found her. She truly cares about her clients and she puts them above her business and profits. I wish she was available and I could work with her on the day of my wedding.

    Danielle is amazing !

    I loved having Danielle ! She was so amazing throughout my entire experience. I reached out to her 3 years ago after I first got engaged ! She was recommended from my coworker, because her sister got married in Hawaii and had Danielle as her planner. So happy I went with her. She was so nice, flexible, accommodating, and she eased so much of my stresses from my destination wedding.

    Above and beyond

    Danielle went above and beyond decorating our wedding. From making my bouquet, corsages, table decorations, having coolers and other things to rent. Our wedding wouldn't have been nearly as nice if it wasn't for her! She was always available if i had any questions, or concerns. Cant recommend her enough, no one else I would use!

    Mauna Kea Wedding

    Danielle was amazing to work with, I could not have done this without all of her expertise, enthusiasm and professionalism! She was there every step of the way and incredibly helpful when we needed ideas for décor. She understands the current wedding trends and what it takes to put together a destination wedding. Not only did she coordinate all our vendors prior to the wedding and everything the day of, she also provided décor and made sure everything was in place and looked beautiful!
    She went above and beyond to have meeting with us and suggest vendors when I was not satisfied (vendors I had selected before contracting with her). Working with Danielle was incredibly easy and fun! I felt like I was planning my wedding with a longtime friend, she understood and saw our vision. She was there no matter the time of day for a call, text or email and to ensure everything was going to be just perfect, and that it was.
    The day of the wedding I had lost my voice and she brought me up some tea, which put all my stresses at ease. I knew she had it all taken care of and I had nothing to worry about. The day was perfect and my husband and I could not thank Danielle enough for all her hard work and time she put into making our wedding day so special and amazing!
    Thank you Danielle!

    Working with Danielle was fun, easy, and pleasant! We moved to Kona about a year ago from San Francisco, CA, and since nearly 80% (out of 250) of our guests were coming from the mainland, we wanted to give our guests a very tropical, minimal, yet classy feel while visiting the island, and she nailed it. Our guests were WOW'd. We had two different venues - our ceremony on our church lawn (Living Stones Church) and our reception at a state park pavilion (Old Kona Airport Pavilion.) Our local guests who have been to many events at the Old Airport Pavilion told us they had never seen it look as beautiful as it did that night!! She is kind, respectful, and humble, always mindful of our budget and giving us plenty of options along the way. Prior to the wedding, she met me a couple times at the reception venue to take measurements and to scope out what she'd be working with. She did our bouquets, created an arch for the ceremony, photo booth backdrop, built curtains and drapes, went through the ends of the earth to get me 100 pineapples, and the cost was so reasonable! She was always available to us, and even with some last minute craziness, she made it effortless. We are so grateful for her and her team for helping make our wedding so, so, SO beautiful! Thanks Danielle #240 XoXO

    Working with Danielle for my daughters seeet 15 event was an excellent experience. It was really easy putting ideas together. She executed my vision and then some. She worked within my budget and still made our event look like a million dollars. I highly recommend Danielle’s services for all you decor needs.

    Danielle was amazing! From our first meeting she helped me nail down a theme, colors, and over all feel of what our reception would be like. I am sometimes the worst at putting into words what I like and what I want. Danielle made it so easy. She would show me 2 different pictures on Pinterest and I'd say "I like them both" and she would say "it's ok. I know what you like about this one and I know what you like about that one. I can bring it all together!"
    She definitely did just that! She brought it all together beautifully!! We loved it all!
    She did our flowers, all decorations, handled the venue and all vendors, and even did our wedding cake!
    In a time that could be very stressful, the planning was so peaceful thanks to Danielle. Thank you for all your hard work!

    WOW!! Danielle is absolutely amazing at what she does. We planned a wedding in Hilo, HI all the way from Michigan but Danielle made it SO much easier to do so. My fiancé and I are both very indecisive people and she could definitely tell. Danielle gave us so many ideas and options to pick from which took so much stress off of our plates. Not only is she an amazing decorator- but a definite people person. Throughout the wedding process, she felt like a best friend- though much more creative than any of my actual friends.

    She was also extremely communicative and flexible with us. We changed our minds on different decorations so many times but Danielle was always happy to oblige. We never had to wait for a response from her- which was especially surprising considering the 6 hour time difference. She was always 100% on top of her work.

    Danielle created stunning centerpieces, table decorations, signs for our guests, etc. She set up everything to perfection- even the items that we provided ourselves. We didn't have to worry about a single decoration or any set-up items on the day of our wedding- which is most definitely a must when you should be enjoying your special day. We highly, highly, highly recommend Danielle to anyone and everyone!

    THANK YOU SO MUCH DANIELLE!

    Danielle was beyond amazing. She was professional in every way. Our every detail was done to perfection. We had a very formal beach wedding at a major hotel. She worked seamlessly with our other vendors. And everything she promised she fulfilled. Thank you , Danielle, for all you did to make our special day go even better than we envisioned.

    I had a simple, intimate backyard wedding and Danielle designed and executed perfectly our dream wedding cake. Not only was it mouth watering DELICIOUS but it was picture ready and absolutely gorgeous! It was almost a shame to cut into it.....almost. We were happily eating leftover for days. She was very accommodating to our needs and requests and very professional. Thank you Danielle for assisting in making our day the best day ever!

    We had a gorgeous, small back yard wedding in June thanks to the help of Danielle! I never could have done it without her expertise. She completely understood my decor theme idea & made it better than I had imagined. She also made our cake. It was BEAUTIFUL, it held up, and it tasted great! In fact, my mother-in-law's last comment of the night was "gosh, that cake was really good".
    I highly recommend this lovely lady.
    Thank you Danielle.
    Love, Lauren Tomich.

    Danielle was simply AMAZING! I had to plan a wedding on a short notice from India! Stand out qualities for me were:
    1. Responsive - Danielle would respond promptly to all questions and quote requests. She was willing to work within my tight budget and incorporate my ideas as well bringing in beautiful ideas of her own. This was especially important to me trying to plan a wedding from India with a 15 hour time difference between us!
    2. Willingness to Help & flexibility - Danielle met me days before the wedding at our wedding venue and we changed our idea completely from using the indoor space to the Outdoor space! She was not phased at all! She understood that it was important to me.
    3. Professionalism - I DID NOT HAVE TO MICROMANAGE! You cannot imagine what a relief it is as a Bride to NOT have to give any instructions on t he day of the wedding. All the rules of the church were adhered to, Danielle was like a mouse the day of the wedding! Setting up and clearing up inconspicuously. She was so professional that I had no worries at all!
    4. Creative & Cost Saving - Where wedding costs can build up with tiny details like wanting colored napkins instead of white ones, Danielle helped me to shave costs from the venue by simply incorporating these types of details into her set-up. The decor was absolutely perfect. She thought of the table settings, floral arrangements and napkin colors! I didn't need to worry at all. I wanted to re-use the floral decorations the next day at a follow-up event, Danielle cleaned everything up, stored the flowers in a box so they wouldn't be crushed and simply instructed us to keep it in the A/C room! I can't tell you how much we saved just from re-using the floral decor!

    The wedding was absolutely beautiful and a HUGE part of that was Danielle!

    Thank you so very much!

    Danielle was the perfect hire for planning our Hawaiian wedding! Since I do not have a particular flare for creativity, I counted on her to make our day unique, beautiful and special for us and our guests! She is very patient, excited about everything she takes on, and I am happy to have made a friend through the process! I really put my trust in her, and was blown away when we showed up to the venue. Her attention to detail was impeccable, and took care of the setting up and tearing down of our private space. Danielle also helped refer me to other people and services in the community through her experience and relationships, and I would and have happily recommend any one of her connections as well! For your event small or large, give her the opportunity to show what she can do!

    Our wedding is in November 2015, and we are from Edmonton, AB. Planning a destination wedding can be very stressful, but Danielle has taken all the worry away. She always gets back to me promptly and has so many great ideas! She is making all of the decorations and flower arrangements for the wedding herself. I would highly recommend Danielle!

    She has been a pleasure to work with.

    Danielle helped me out with decorations, favors, flowers and cakes for my country wedding in September. We did a lot of our planning through Pinterest which really helped us share our vision of the event! She is easy to communicate with and always quick to answer questions and get back with info, which really helped us during our partial long-distance planning.
    Our wedding cake and cupcakes were absolutely delicious, she is a truly talented baker. Danielle has a great eye for table decor, and our cake table looked especially amazing.
    I love and share her "DIY rather than buy" attitude, which is not only makes for a personalized event, but is both economical and environmentally friendly. If you are the same way, she is the way to go!

    Danielle is amazing to work with! Not only does she accommodate for what you want, but her eye for details and artistic touch just made everything so much more beautiful than what I had in mind! She is responsive, creative, works with your budget, and is such a kind and fun person to be around. If you need a positive person to help with the stress of wedding planning, she makes it a breeze. We had Danielle as our wedding coordinator and could not have been happier. With so much in mind on the big day, it was so nice to not have to think about set up and take down. She was there when I needed, on top of everything, and went above and beyond in collaborating with my ideas and creating beautiful decorations with her craftiness, creativeness, and skill. You will not be disappointed!

    Danielle was fabulous! She created a fun "tea party" for my daughter's bridal shower. Guests are still raving about it months later!! Her attention to decor and detail, unique fun food creations, great party games with prizes, and her personalized service made our event sparkle. It was a pleasure co-creating this event with her.

    Danielle decorated a High Noon Tea Party I hosted at the Club at Hokuli'a and she did a fantastic job. All the guests commented on how beautiful the Pavilion looked and they loved the antique tea sets. Our dining area was transformed into a charming tea room! She did such a good job and was a delight to work with. I highly recommend Danielle and I look forward to working with her in the future.

    Danielle did a great job helping with our wedding! Everything from the handmade table runners, and tinted mason jars, to the flower arrangements and desserts were wonderful. Danielle was awesome about keeping in touch, and asking questions throughout planning the wedding. She is great at paying attention to detail! All of our guests raved about what a beautiful reception we had. Thank you so much for your help Danielle!!

    Danielle was a life saver at the last minute! We got married in Nov 2014 and were in a bind with flowers and day of decor coordination. She is incredibly helpful and professional and was able to help our bridal party execute all of the details we needed on such a short term notice. Thank you Danielle for everything!??

    With love,
    Chey & Saku K.
