    Beautiful memories!

    John and I had a beautiful wedding experience with Karen. Karen contacted us shortly after we submitted our request and was able to schedule a ceremony within our short time-frame. She addressed all of the questions we had with friendliness and professionalism and was able to recommend a venue and flowers. Everything came together in such a magical way, John and I could not have been more pleased. The weather cooperated, the beach was gorgeous, the timing was perfect, the ceremony was beautiful. Karen performed the ceremony in a personal way that made us feel so special. Kenny sang and played ukulele and his performance was also personal and so special. We have memories and beautiful photos that will...

    Our vow renewal

    We decided very last minute to do a vow renewal while in Kona celebrating our 1Oth year together. Kevin was super helpful with all the details for our little private ceremony. He made it easy with the location (and directions) as well as flowers and keepsake. He tailored it to what we wanted including reading words that we wrote. It was a very special sunrise celebration 🍾

    10/10 Experience!

    We had a wonderful experience! Our ceremony was beautiful and private. Kevin was witty, kind, and made us very comfortable. All of his suggestions and instructions leading up were very helpful. And the photography was brilliant, much better than we had anticipated!

    Wedding 5/20/22

    Our wedding was perfect ! Kevin was the greatest to work with and made our wedding just as we had envisioned. He made the planning process seamless as we live in Virginia and arrived the day. He is kind , funny , professional and puts so many details in the ceremony including traditional vows , blowing the conch shell, reading a beautiful poem and scripture. Our day could not have been more perfect !

    Absolutely amazing experience

    This was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. Kevin was fantastic. SO professional and easy to work with. His words during the ceremony were perfect. It was a perfect length and I couldn't be happier.

    I've attended many weddings in my 50 years of life... This was by far the most sincere and meaningful ceremony. The blowing of the Conk Shell was so beautiful. The explanation was perfect and informative.

    The poem that Kevin read 'Marriage Joins Two People in the Circle of it's Love' by Edmund O'Neill was so touching it made me cry before things really got going. SO romantic and true.

    1st Corinthians 13 is my favorite romantic Bible verse....

    Perfect!!!

    beautiful setting, blowing of the conch shell, blending of the sand's and perfect fresh lei's. I could not have asked for a better setting right on the beach, view's were stunning. Very happy with our decision and choice.

    Just what I wanted...

    Kevin made everything simple and easy while making sure our wedding was elegant, beautiful and just how we wanted it to be. He recommended a photographer, the fabulous Glen Dohie, who gave us magical pictures to commemorate our day as well as videographer, Andrew Williamson. Kevin made sure we had all the permits we needed and gave us step by step directions to make sure we had our marriage license in time. I would highly recommend Kevin to help make your special day turn out just right.

    Beautiful sunset wedding

    Kevin was great! He worked with us as we switched what we wanted a few times. He also helped us find a wonderful restaurant for dinner reservations. The location he picked was just beautiful for our sunset beach wedding! Glen took our photos and did a great job too!

    Memorable and stress-free

    Kevin Eng made our sunset beach wedding the experience of a lifetime. His communication skills are excellent. Following our online inquiry, Kevin phoned us in Canada from Hawaii. He discussed our plans and he asked us many questions so he could customize our beach wedding. He expertly guided us through the online marriage license application process, recommended a license registrant (a requirement once you arrive in Hawaii) and told us when and how to apply and make a registrant appointment. Everything he told us was accurate; we didn't have to worry about a thing. He also arranged the photography for us. He suggested a lovely beach for a sunset wedding and it couldn't have been more beautiful. His expertise...

    Truly the best!!

    Where do I start? First off? Karen & Lev are amazing at what they do! I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. I was so apprehensive about eloping and putting all my trust in someone to do everything for us on our special day and I am soooooo glad I chose to hire Karen and Lev for our ceremony and photography/videography. Everything was perfect and I didn’t have to worry about a thing, and this is a must when planning a destination wedding!! Karen answered all my questions and was very informative about everything which really put my mind at ease. I definitely would recommend them a thousand times over! If you want a someone you can trust with your special day, look no further! Thank you again for truly making our big day special!

    The wedding planner's, wedding planner.

    My bride to be has planned dozens of weddings in her hospitality career, but for OUR wedding, it was on me. I reached out to a few select vendors and Karen was the only one to respond personally by telephone. After talking with her for a few minutes, it was clear to me that I didn't need to entertain any other providers. She immediately put me at ease.

    Wanting a simple wedding ceremony, with only us and our immediately families in attendance, Karen couldn't have been more helpful. After corresponding with me and asking many questions as to our wishes, she recommended the perfect beach venue with concise directions from our hotel right through to the last speed...

    Kevin guided us to select the options that would suit our needs and expectations. It was a delight to work with him and to select Glen, one of the professional photographers that coordinated with Kevin. We had an amazing day!

    The perfect elopement!

    My husband and I got married by Kevin early in December and it was the perfect way for us to get eloped and married. We wouldn't have it any other way. He was extremely easy to work with and walked us through what we needed to do before the ceremony. He was also very organized and everything ran smoothly. Kukio was a gorgeous beach and we wouldn't have wanted to get married any other way. Thank you Kevin for making that such a special day for both of us. We loved the leis and the special and symbolic keepsake which we have displayed in our home. We highly recommend Kevin as an officiant.

    Perfect Wedding, thank you Kevin

    Our wedding was such a joy with Kevin, he made it special and touching. Surprisingly, Derek and I both fought back tears, and Kevin was there for us with kleenex and his comedic timing to keep us smiling. Planning the wedding with Kevin was so straightforward and easy, and he also gave us great suggestions for dinner afterwards and what to do on the island. Highly recommend Kevin for a touching ceremony on a beautiful beach!

    Beyond Grateful🙏🏻

    Kevin you’re amazing! The whole
    Family and I can’t thank you enough for making our daughter dream wedding come true! She was extremely ecstatic. It was certainly a leap of faith to trust a name that I had found in the world of web surfing. Kevin is a trustworthy professional all the way, he talked to me through the process over the phone. Unlike most company would ask for deposit but Kevin did not ask for any of that before the wedding, we trusted him and vice versa. The wedding were sort of surprise and wanted an intimate simple wedding and he helped to keep it that way. Oh and the Lei’s where made so beautifully and smells so good. We couldn’t be happier. Mahalo Kevin❤️

    Our perfect wedding!!

    It was an honor to have Kevin officiant our wedding! He made planning completely effortless and minimal. We absolutely loved our ceremony on Kukio beach and we couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful experience.

    Kevin’s service was PERFECT. It was everything we hoped for and more. His approach and humour made it very memorable and enjoyable. We loved that our daughters were very involved in everything and he was able to give us a traditional Hawaiian ceremony while including a religious portion.

    We highly recommend Kevin if you are thinking about getting married in Hawaii.

    Mahalo for everything!

    Easy and simple elegance

    Kevin was easy to reach, all the paperwork was easy to complete and the simple ceremony was elegant in every way. Kevin is organized, professional, funny and eloquent. The ceremony with the conch shell, poem, and filling of different sand made for a ceremony that will be the source of many fond memories for many future years. Highly recommend.
