"To plan each couple's wedding as if they are a precious family member or friend." This simple credo garners them praise from couples around the world - often before the big day" We had a recent email from someone recently that the reason why they chose Aloha Maui Weddings to coordinate their wedding was because we had patiently answered their questions without having received an initial booking deposit," Vice President Fay Hovey reflects. " We want people to know right from the start that we're interested in giving them as much information that we can so that they can make clear decisions about their plans. So often, they choose us to coordinate because we were the people that really helped them visualize and solidify the vision of their wedding and what was possible to do." This philosophy and their dedication to serving their clients with the Spirit of Aloha is paying off in referral business as dozens of couples refer their friends and family members to Aloha Maui Weddings and in marketing and networking opportunities that come their way.
