We are always thrilled to receive messages from our couples when they return home. Each wedding has been very special for us! We thank our couples and greatly appreciate their taking time to share their thoughts and allowing us to share them with you exactly as they were written. We hope you enjoy them! Rev. Rosemary

Dear Rev. Rosemary,

It was a pleasure to meet you and have you a part of our special moment. We are extremely pleased with the outcome, your kindness and how incredibly comfortable you made it. It was a truly memorable and enjoyable experience and Emily and I were blessed to have you share it with us. Thanks again!

We are back in Germany now and want to thank you again for the wunderful wedding we had with you on Hawaii and the pictures/video!!

Please feel free to forward our contact details if you have more German couples to marry….

Lori and I just wanted to say thank you for our wonderful experience at the vow renewal. Everything was great. We also received Erwin's pictures which were also great.

Hello Rev. Rosemary,
It was great to hear from you today. How nice of you to follow-up with us.
I really would like to put something on your testimonial website.

Of course we were skeptical, but looking at the testimonials and the very affordable packages that you had to offer and just knowing that you are a person of God, we just knew it would be ok.
Not only was it ok, it was the wedding of our dreams!
Since we are both over 50, we wanted it just to be the two of us. I didn't expect the ceremony to take my breath away, but sure enough I cried.
I plan on telling everyone we know that MyHawaiiWedding.com is the perfect place to go to for the best experience anyone can have.

Thanks again.
Chris & Scott

I just wanted to tell you both how pleased I was the with wedding arrangements. Thank you very much for all of your help.

The photo's turned out amazing and the video was great too. Everyone that helped with the process were kind and dear.

Thanks for everything, we received the pictures and the gardens show up just beautifully in them. No one else has had time to see the pictures yet so the reviews aren’t quite in yet. We had a wonderful honeymoon and the weather was just fabulous.

Once again, we loved our wedding and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special.

Rosemary, Thank you so much for renewing our vows on Waikiki Beach. Darren's pictures are great and we've been showing everyone what a great time we had in Hawaii. I hope all is well with you and thanks again.

Hi Rosemary,

I'm so sorry it took me so long to send this thank-you note. I just want to say how much it meant to us to renew our vows at such a beautiful location. And the fact that we got drenched in the downpour made it all the more special! It definitely made it "our day"!!

When I tell people how we did it, with you strolling up to us and striking up a conversation and then the photographer going from tree to tree snapping pictures of us without Jim having any idea, always gets a big laugh - everyone loves that story! And then I tell them the story of the presentation of the flower lei that you told during our ceremony. That's such a beautiful story, everyone loves that, too. You made our day so very special; you really went above and beyond to truly make it a surprise for Jim! Thank you so much!

I wanted to let you know how much it means to me, to have these wonderful "new memories" to look back on. It is really one of those life moments that will be in our hearts and minds forever.

The photographer did such a beautiful job - making our pictures come out as wonderful as they did couldn't have been easy given the weather we had to contend with! He did a phenomenal job. If I know of anyone who's considering a wedding or anniversary or vow renewal in Hawaii, I am definitely giving them your name.

Thank you again, Rosemary, for making our vow renewal so very memorable!
Sincerely,
Jane

Hello Rev. Rosemary,
I hope that you had a good Christmas and New Years. We had such a wonderful cruise. I wanted to thank you again for the very special renewal service you did for my parents. They cannot stop talking about it. Your words meant so much to them. I am so glad we were able to keep it a surprise. I can't wait to see the pictures.
Thanks again.
Deborah

Sorry to take so long to get back to you. We have had a crazy couple of months. We were very pleased with our wedding and the video and pictures. We were not stressed at all that day, it was so easy all we had to do was show up. (Our reception at home was a whole other story. It really made us appreciate how stress free our wedding had been.) We have received so many compliments about everything. Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special!

Dear Rosemary,

This is Becky getting back to you with regards to our wedding.
As for the wedding and the service we couldn't have asked for a more smoother and professional service! Everything was wonderful from the limo driver being on time, the photographer being super friendly and not to mention awesome at his job. The wedding went on time and every single thing was just brilliant. The flowers were fresh and beautiful and my hair piece was sent to the hotel just like I had asked and also the hair and make up lady that you suggest was perfect. She was on time and did an amazing job with my hair and makeup and even took photos for me with my camera. The weather was perfect and the timing of the sunset wedding was great. Thank you for all that you did in helping to make our wedding day a stress free and enjoyable moment. It was truly the best time of me and my new husbands life!! If I had to do it over again I would definitely have you plan the wedding and take all your professional suggestions.

I have attached a few photos that you may use for your website/marketing purposes if you'd like. Take care and thank you again and please tell everyone that was involved with our wedding that we said a huge thank you from the bottom of our hearts. P.S. please let the photographer know that we got his photos and they were fabulous and couldn't have been better!

Sincerely,
Becky & Jon

Dear Reverend Rosemary
Thank you so very much for giving us the perfect wedding on October 12. I am sorry for the delay in formally writing to you. Our Honeymoon time in Hawaii was so beautiful we didn't want it to end and took a while to get our feet back on the ground.

First of all, Reverend Rosemary, thank you for helping us with every question and co-ordinating every detail to get us to our big day. Your support gave us the confidence to know a wonderful day awaited us.

The wedding site at Waialae Beach was absolutely beautiful. The flowers were fresh and beautiful and the weather could not have been better.
Reverend Margaret officiated our wedding. Please extend our heartfelt thanks to her for her time working with us to make a perfect wedding. Her love for the islands and peaceful confident personality guided us through the nervous moments and gave us a wonderful memory to last us forever.
Our photographer Erwin, provided us with many excellent photographs. He made us laugh and his skill was apparent in the photographs he sent to us on CD.
Our limo driver Stanley, kept everything on time and made us feel like royalty.
Finally, Anita is a very skilled stylist. Anita worked with Kim all day on the wedding day to make every detail perfect from head to toe. She was a delight to work with and we felt as though we were spending the day with a dear friend.
Please include any portions of this note and photographs in your web or conventional advertising. We would also recommend you to anyone who is looking for references.
Thank you,
Tim & Kim Phoenix, AZ

Hello Rev. Rosemary Hill,
First of all I would like to say that I am sorry for not contacting you before now. We would like you to know that everything was beautiful. There was so much love in the air it was unbelievable. Let me stop i'm getting mushy.

The pictures were awesome, he captured the mood of all of us and the backdrops were great, after our family looked at them they all said it felt like they were there. I am so glad that we decided to have this special day in Hawaii and performed by you all. We would like to say thank you again from the bottom of our hearts.
Luv Ya,
Raleigh & Amy

Aloha!! I am glad to hear that you are back @ home and I hope you trip was relaxing!

Oh my goodness where do I begin!! Our wedding was the absolute best day of my life to date!! I can't even begin to tell you how special that day was. First we did not know if the weather would hold out, but it did! We arrived from Waikiki to the North Shore about 30 min early! We were traditional and had not seen each either since the night before which was so exciting Prior to Sept. 28th I had so many dreams of what this day was going to be like! I could not believe that my dreams were becoming reality right in front of my eyes!! Every dream was being played out! The weather was perfect! The scenery was gorgeous! The sky was amazing! The ocean was extraordinary! Everything about our wedding day was wonderful! I can not even begin to thank you for all of you work in setting things up!

Everything was so amazing! The flute player playing in the background, the ocean rolling in the waves, the day was just amazing!

The pictures were so gorgeous, everyone who sees them says we look like we were photo shopped in!! They are beautiful!!

I can't say thank you enough! You made our dream wedding come true! I will recommend your services to anyone looking to renew vows, or for a wedding!
Thank you sooo much!! Nikka

Rosemary, just wanted to say thank you again for our lovely ceremony. Bill and I really enjoyed meeting you in person and are so happy with our decision to go with My Hawaii Wedding. Attached is one of the photos of our lovely day. :)

Aloha, It's been awhile. I wish we were still there in your beautiful islands. Thank you just doesn't say how much I appreciate everything you did to help make the Vowel Renewal for Rayna and Paul so Beautiful. It was everything I hoped and the couple... well... Happy!!! I'm sending this picture, I hope it comes through. The computer still frustrates me. They are very pleased with the pictures, me too. Well I just wanted to let you know I think of you and that day and all you did often. I hope all is well and I'm still trying to get Eric to pop the question!!! Thanks again, Rennes

I just wanted to say thank you. We just arrived home last night. The wedding was beautiful. Hawaii was beautiful and I am very pleased with the services. The pictures turned out great, considering how sunny it was out and us squinting (haha). Thanks again

Dear Rosemary,

Long time no see. How are you doing?
We finally received our marriage certification from Hawaii marriage
centre. Since our wedding its already past more than one month. Time has
gone past very fast. We are missing Hawaii very much. we loved the nice
weather, warm water and everything else that is Hawaii.
Thank you for doing such a great job with our wedding, your personal touch
was much appreciated. We have been busy sending out our wedding photos, the
photographer did a fantastic job. please send on our appreciation.

New Zealand is coming in to spring and getting warmer. During our wedding,
che has got a scuba diving license. We are looking forward to go diving
here.
Best regards,
Yumi and Che

I just wanted to send you a great big Mahalo for such a perfect wedding day for Mary and William!

Reverend Rosemary, the ceremony was so touching, yet it wasnt heavy, it had a happy feeling about it. Everyone thought the sand ceremony was such a great way to include Mary's son into such a significant change to his life as well as the bride and groom. And I must say you certainly know how to adjust to changing locations on the whim of mother nature. I also wanted to thank you for peforming the invocation prior to everyone eating. I know it wasn't planned but again, you did such a great job, thank you thank you thank you!!

Anita, what can I say, your hair and make-up lasted throughout the ceremony and reception. It was so perfect. Mary was just so happy with how her hair and makeup turned out, it wasn't overly done. She was worried the make up might be too heavy but it wasn't. You really know what you are doing. Mary's hair....SOOO many compliments, the flowers, the style, it was just perfect.

"Thank you" really cannot express how grateful I am for all your help, your sense of humour when others are on pins and needles, and your patience. I'll certainly recommend your services to my friends and family.

Feel free to use this for a reference if you wish. We all had a wonderful time. Everything was just right. My mom loved it and my dad was not surprised! He heard her from the other room while talking to me about the plans But he went along with it nevertheless.

My mom was very pleased, and your help in making all the plans for me to pull this off was very comforting to me to know I could for once just leave it in someone else's hands, (both yours and the Lord's), and trust things would be as carefully planned and thought of as I would have done myself. Everyone who took part to make this memorable were all very kind and accommodating to and for us. We all will never forget it.

And Roland was great, taking all my orders! I'm glad he was patient. I can't wait to get the photos! My mom's friends keep bugging her to see pics. I bought a beautiful Hawaiin photo book to make a 'wedding album' for them. And Orchids was great too.

The next day we went to dinner at the Chart House and Dean's friend sang two beautiful songs for my parents when we told him about the 'wedding'. It was great.

Lastly, the deacon couldn't have been better. I've been praying for my entire family for 20 years. Please tell him Jim and 'Lisa' (Josie) send their best

It is coming up on a year now since Jon and I had wed on the beach of Waikiki. We had an ultimate wonderful experience with you and your arrangements. We have referred many other couples to you. Thank you very much for being a part of our magical moment.

Gene and I were so blessed to have you renew our vows for us. It was as beautiful as the first 25 years ago. If we ever visit again we will have to get together to have dinner. Let Roland know we loved the CD and Thank the both of you. Mahalo!

Hi Rev. Rosemary -

I wanted to thank you again for performing such a wonderful ceremony for our renewal of vows over two weeks ago. The memories of enjoyment and fun are still fresh in my mind. Our cruise was absolutely spectacular and we had so much fun!

I wanted to share two of the pictures that I am very happy with from our ceremony with you. Thank you again for everything!!

Donna

It has been almost two weeks since my flying back from Hawaii. Just want to say thank you again for the wonderful wedding and all the happiness you bring to Ariel and me. Our parents and friends are all having lots of fun as well. The beautiful beach, the pretty haku and leis, the pleasant weather...Everything is gorgeous! By the way, I just received the pictures CD the other day, and they are fantastic! So please also pass my appreciation to the photographer, he did a great great job!

Thanks again for making our Hawaii Wedding such a success. We were worried about the forecast that predicted rain but you told us not to worry. You were right and things worked out great. The rain stopped just an hour before our wedding and it became a perfect day!

We loved the beach setting you recommended and the photographer you chose. Everything exceeded our expectations. It was simple yet elegant. Also your recommendations about Sunday Brunch at the Halekulani were right on. The hotel service and Brunch also exceeded our expectations.

Thanks again for everything. Send us some cards and we will forward them to our friends and travel agent. Being in the mortgage business, I know the value of referrals from satisfied clients. Call me if you ever need a mortgage I would be happy to give you the wedding planner discount!

I've been meaning to write you a note since we returned. We both want to say thank you again, so much!! It was a wonderful evening, and you made it even more special. You have a wonderful gift!!

We were wondering if you knew when the pictures and the video might be sent to us? We have not received anything as of yet or heard from anyone. With the holidays we knew it would take a little longer, but we don't want those to be lost in the mail hustle either.

We made it back safely home on Monday the 11th, and went to work trying to get ready for the holidays. It's turned cold again here, I sure do miss the warm weather and the lush green landscape. It will return to us in the spring.

Dearest Rosemary,

My apologies in the delay in emailing you. I really don't know here the last 6 months have gone. I hope you are well and that
many other engaged couples are keeping you busy.

Firstly, I would like to thank you ever so much for making our wedding truly amazing. You really blew us away with how everything fell in to place and your support was much appreciated.

Coming from New Zealand with the family in tow was quite nerve racking, but everything was just perfect. It was a very stress
free, enjoyable day. Roland was brilliant in his photography and people skills and the violinist made it a great touch. Our family
were most impressed. I am unable to send pictures through from my computer at this stage because my computer does not want to co-operate. However if you have any pictures you are most welcome to paste them on your web site. I will try again soon.
My mum Carolyn who came with us to Hawaii, passed away at Christmas, so the fact that she was able to come and celebrate our
special day has been even more special, thank you ever so much for this.

Kia ora and thank you, keep in touch.
Hayley and James
Tauranga, New Zealand

Rosemary,

Thank you for making our wedding day special. As you know, there are many choices to make when searching for a wedding coordinator/minister in Oahu. Frankly, it is quite overwhelming. I am so glad that the hotel recommended you. You helped to make our ceremony simple but very elegant. The video and photos are great and we appreciate your efforts in getting them to us prior to our honeymoon departure. Also, I wanted to let you know that the information you provided us for dining after the ceremony, sight-seeing in the Hawaiian islands, and taking a cruise on the Pride of Hawaii were extremely helpful.

Thanks again, John and Natalie

Malaho nui loa for the very nice wedding service you held for Anders and I on October 23rd. We have looked at the DVD and the pictures and are very pleased with them! Please pass along our thanks to the videographer and the photographer too. The flowers and haiku as well were very pretty and I am very happy that you arranged everything so well, there was very little for me to think about and that was so nice. You did a wonderful job!

Thank you so much for delivering the photo CD and the DVD to our hotel, that was so kind and thoughtful and we’re sorry we missed you to say thank you again in person. We look forward to coming back to Hawaii again soon.

Thank you again for all your time, thoughtfulness, kindness, and a very special and memorable day!

Thank you once again for our lovely wedding. It was just exactly what we wanted. Wendi and I love the pictures and we referred friends of ours to you who may also try eloping.

Aloha

We hope that you are well !! ...we are safe home at Germany ...

Hi Rosemary thanks a lot for your wedding ceremony.
We really appreciate your corporation.
Actually we were so impressed by your ceremony
and are having a happy life in Japan.
By the way we used a hawaiian company to take wedding pictures of us.
They charged us 80,000 yen!
Anyway please stay in our guest house when you come to Japan.
We'll welcome you to our house.

Dear Rosemary,
We don't know how to thank you for a perfect wedding in Hawaii! You truly made our dreams come true. I really didn't think it was possible to have a wedding so far away from home, but you helped us out throughout the entire process with your patience and wonderful suggestions. We could not be happier that we chose to have our ceremony at Paliku Garden. We were completely mesmerized by the view. As you know we never visited the garden and had only seen the view from the bottom up, but gosh! The view from the
garden is gorgeous. You have a combination of greenery, mountain scene, ocean view, and even a view of a small island. What could be better!!! Kudos to the beautiful bouquet! I could not get my eyes off of it. It was so fresh and the colors complemented my dress very well. My family and friends wanted to thank you for organizing such a memorable wedding for them to attend. Now they all want to get married in Hawaii. My niece told me that no other wedding can compete with this one. The pictures came out great. Every time I look at them I want to go back to Hawaii. I will have lots of memories of our special day thanks to Erwin and Phil.
We have to also thank you for arranging Alika and Joanne to sing and dance at our reception. They truly provided the guests with a taste of Hawaiian music and dance. All the little kids come back to NY doing hula dancing. It was hilarious! (My niece was a Hula dancer for Halloween.). I will forward you some pictures soon. Thank you so much for all you have done to provide us with an unforgettable ceremony.
Love,
Ryusei and Stephanie

Hello or Aloha from the K.... family in Rockton, Il. We just wanted to thank you so much for a beautiful wedding. We just cannot express enough how perfect you made our wedding. Every detail was taken care of, starting with recommendations for hair, flowers and the luau at the Hale Koa Hotel. We were so glad we choose the Kualoa Ranch, overlooking Chinaman's Hat. The view was breath taking. The ceremony was amazing. It seemed as if we had a long-time friendship and you knew exactly what to say. It was very touching and emotional for all of our family and friends. We have a special Thank You for our photographer. He was absolutely wonderful. We have never seen such beautiful pictures. Those we will have for a lifetime. The last detail was the icing on the cake. You suggested The Willows restaurant, and it was also the perfect food and atmosphere to complete our "dream day."
