Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Mango Season Weddings 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Waianae, HI

We are a boutique wedding planning & entertainment company with over 15 years experience in the Hawai'i & destination wedding industry. Our focus is providing comprehensive wedding planning experiences for busy couples that are culturally inspired, wonderfully personalized, luxurious, and reflect each couple's unique personality. Our mission -- to give couples back the freedom to enjoy all the fun aspects of their wedding journey while we manage every part of your wedding day down to the finest detail.

Seriously, you need Annie. I am such a type A person that I thought maybe I didn’t need a wedding planner, but from the first consultation with Annie we decided immediately we needed her. She added value from day one, and saved me from making a horrible venue mistake. She knows everyone, all the vendors, and who’s the best fit for you and your wedding vision. What she doesn’t know (which is rare) she figures out - for example, I had a request to have a magician, a friend cleanse the space with sage smudging, and a sound healer at our wedding, and she handled all my unique requests so well and was up for anything. She is very detail oriented and pays attention to everything- all our bills being correct, caught mistakes I made, and paid attention to all my strange requests. Most weddings are full of some strange interpersonal dynamic challenges, and Annie knew exactly how to navigate each one, paid special attention to the dynamic issues with my family and was fully ready and prepped to keep certain people happy and apart. She dealt with last minute changes seamlessly, including a no-show bridesmaid and last minute addition of a flower girl. There is no one I trusted more with my wedding (and at this point my life, I mean, can I keep her?!!) than Annie. On my wedding day and for months leading up to it I knew that whatever happened to go wrong, whatever last minute issues I would have, Annie would handle it and figure it out and I would barely know the difference. And that’s exactly how our day went. She is perfect and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Ps- mango season band was amazing too!!

Twin Fin Filmworks 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Waianae, HI

I started Twin Fin Filmworks because I love to create memories through film. Every Twin Fin film is as unique as the couple which inspired it. I believe my work is meaningful - capturing one of the best days of your life, and getting to handcraft a short film for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Twin Fin Filmworks was an easy choice for us when my husband and I decided we wanted to capture our big day through professional videography. While we originally thought that still photos would be sufficient, once we dug into Sam’s portfolio (watching his videos are pretty addicting even if you don't know the couples featured!), we knew we wanted to have our wedding captured by him. Sam offers an artistic (yet balanced and clean of clichés) perspective; under his direction, Sam's team delivers an incredibly creative take on the wedding video (which is really, in essence, a short film), to serve as both a memory capsule of the event’s highlight moments and a succinct narrative of a several-hour-long event. Only having gotten married a few months ago, we’ve already watched the final product he created for us dozens of times to blissfully travel the road down memory lane. If you are planning your nuptials in the Hawaii region and want a video that is fresh and creative (but skips the clichés), Sam is the professional to go with. We couldn’t more highly recommend a wedding vendor. All-in-all, I'm just so genuinely grateful to have a video to remember the big day, and, in particular, a video as unique and creative as the one we now enjoy! Thank you Sam!

Award-winning Hawaii wedding photographer captures editorial imagery for the discerning couples appreciating a vibrant and unexpected take on wedding photography. Through artful compositions and thoughtful storytelling, I am to capture not just how your celebration looked, but how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
I originally found Masha through Zola and was impressed by her editorial style photos. I am so happy that Masha was available to photograph our wedding. She made me feel so comfortable and so gorgeous all day. My husband was nervous about being in front of the camera but she helped guide our posing and he looks very natural in the end result! Photography is a large part of the wedding day and I'm grateful I spent that time with Masha. I am picky about photos since my dad is very passionate about photography, especially film photography. The photos (both digital and the film ones) turned out absolutely incredible. She took both traditional wedding portraits as well as some very dreamy gorgeous editorial-like photos. It's hard to convey how happy I am about the experience. I'm already dreaming about another vow renewal so I can book Masha again!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had a backyard wedding with 110 people in April and Ella was my photographer. She was one of the best part of the wedding experience! Not only was she easy to work with, professional, and punctual, she is one of those rare people you'll meet in life who genuinely has your (and your wedding's) best interest in mind. Ella's package included an engagement shoot and she made the fantastic suggestions to go to a dog beach in San Diego (we live about 2 hours away). We received a big batch of amazing engagement photos and the best part was that she made the experience fun for us. My husband and I are usually very awkward, but with Ella, it felt natural to pose and just have a good time. Ella and her partner worked tirelessly at our wedding and we are so happy with our 800 photos that we received. She was detail oriented, organized, but somehow made picture taking painless and chill. Her photos were bright, cheerful, and she captured the mood of our wedding perfectly. I'd hire Ella again in a heartbeat for any and all future photoshoots. She is absolutely amazing and you won't go wrong with Ella for your wedding!

The goal is to create images that tell your story naturally, allowing you to relive the feeling of your day for years to come.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our minimoon in the mountains. The cabin setting was captured so beautifully, and the colors in the photos are absolutely striking—rich, warm, and true to the moment. Nothing felt overly staged; every image looks authentic and full of emotion, like a genuine snapshot of our time together. The photos perfectly reflect the atmosphere of the mountains and the intimacy of our stay. We’ll treasure these images forever and couldn’t recommend them more.

I booked my wedding date at Sunset Ranch 2.5 years ago after falling in love with it online. I had never seen the venue in person, but based on the reviews and the wedding packages, I felt confident that this would be the perfect venue to host my dream wedding. Just a few months after I locked in my date, I found out I was pregnant and would be due just weeks before my original wedding day. I went into full panic mode when I reached out to Ronda, my Sunset Ranch appointed wedding coordinator, to let her know the news. Greg(owner) and Ronda did not let me stress about this and happily moved my date another year out without any further questions asked. Because of this, I was able to prepare for an incredible wedding that exceeded all my expectations. Planning a destination wedding while raising a newborn was something I never thought I would have to do, nor did I know how incredibly difficult it could be. It would have been impossible without Ronda’s help and guidance. She went above and beyond and was always honest and transparent about every decision, option, or issue that arose. I love that Sunset Ranch has vendors for almost everything already. It made the wedding planning process so much easier. Any decision between vendors or design elements that I had to make was easy due to Ronda’s suggestions. The entire Sunset Ranch team worked seamlessly to make sure my wedding day was amazing. All my guests were in awe and could not say enough great things about the venue and team. The party favors (honey) were a hit as well! My husband and I were pretty bummed when TSA took our bottle on our way back home. The BEST part - nothing beats the natural beauty of the venue / views from the venue. Being able to pause and appreciate all the beauty around us with all our friends and family as we soaked up everything that just happened was incredible. I couldn’t be happier about where I chose to get married. If you’re a bride that does not want the bridezilla title or to get sucked into picking out every little detail on your own and welcome help/suggestions from seasoned wedding professionals, look no further. Sunset Ranch is an absolutely gorgeous venue, with flexible packages, and a rockstar team to execute your big day. To Ronda - thank you for being more than just a coordinator, but also a friend over the last 2.5 years. You were the perfect coordinator for my rowdy bunch of friends and a great person to talk to when I struggled to find the balance of raising a baby and planning a destination wedding. Thank you for not just treating us as clients, but as family. My wedding party, along with everyone who got to see you kill it on wedding day absolutely adored you. I’m so glad you were my coordinator! I hope to see you the next time we are back in Oahu.

Aloha! I'm Roman. I've been living on the magical island of O'ahu since I came to UH Manoa in 2009 for my Economics Degree. I got involved with the University radio station (90.1 FM), started doing live events, and really loved showing off my rare music finds. Nothing beats the feeling of rocking a live crowd for track after track, especially after the long pause in events! DJing is all I do for "work", and I love it! Each wedding or event I play is full of different people and different ages from all over the world, and they all have differing tastes in music- blending so many different genres and styles of music is such a fun challenge!

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Roman Candles was excellent! He pulled off a set that was beyond our wildest dreams. We had a brief phone meeting a week before the wedding about how we wanted the vibe to be and he pulled it off perfectly. Us and our guests were blown away by his performance. After the wedding, all of our guests were raving how awesome he was! He blended all of our requested genres. The transitions between genres and between songs were spot on! He had all of our guests up and dancing. Our wedding coordinator said he was very easy to work and communicate with. He was very organized and had all the equipment we needed. He also took care of the emcee duties and did an awesome job! He had an app we could use to upload all of our song requests. We found it very useful for organizing the songs we wanted played at each part of the night. He totally killed it and we could not imagine anyone doing better. 10/10. We can’t stop watching videos of how fun the night went! Totally recommend DJ Roman Candles for your wedding or any other events!!!

We hope to come back to Hawaii and continue to shoot our growing family photos with her. She truly made our day magical and now we have priceless photos to look back on for a lifetime.

Reveal Hair and Makeup was a pleasure to work with for my wedding day. From our first consultation, the stylists were friendly, sweet, thorough, and clear in their communication, taking the time to understand the exact looks I wanted for myself and my matron of honor. On the day of the wedding, they demonstrated their diligence, professionalism, and dedication, expertly executing our desired hair and makeup styles.

Aloha, I'm Mai, the photographer who will be capturing your day from start to finish. My passion for capturing your special moments is something that I can't get enough of. There's just something so beautiful in telling someone's love story through my lens that is just so magical it has me wanting to do it Every, Single, Second. I consider photography to be an Art of storytelling and I would be honored to be a part of your day. Allow me to capture your love story, so that you can tell it to others.

I came across Mai's profile and after reviewing her website I reached out with many questions. She was very responsive and after a brief call, I loved her energy and decided to go with her. The pre-wedding communication was easy and Mai joined us for our wedding rehearsal at the venue. On the wedding day, we worked with Mai and her second shooter Amy. They were lovely to work with and felt more like ohana than just our photographers. They captured our entire day and were so accommodating. While we anticipated our wedding photos to take some time, Mai shared a few sneak peaks and were blown away. After a few weeks only, we received our entire album and are so grateful and happy with the images. We can't thank Mai and Amy enough and definitely recommend them to anyone.
