"We would not have been able to get such a great location as Mahakea Villa without the help of Maile. They worked with our tight budget and helped make our simple ceremony very wonderful. They recommended to us Pastor Elias Parker whom we met before hand to see if he would be a good match for us. He was everything I could have asked for. He blended local customs with traditional so well and was open to any ideas we had. Our photographer was also great and recommended by Maile. Elizabeth Morgan was professional, fun and did a fabulous job.....It was overall a wonderful experience."

"Thank you for such a wonderful wedding and all of your help leading up to it! I have only had two days off since being back, so I am still trying to get thank you cards out, etc., but I wanted to let you know 'S' and I were very happy with the final outcome -- everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and it was beautiful."

"The service we received from Stephanie was excellent! She was very helpful and her response time to any questions was quick. On the day of our event, the Coordinators Shaunna and Chris were excellent! I would recommend using Maile for any event. Our Venue was excellent, and we would recommend this venue [Waimea Valley] to our friends and family."

"Hey Stephanie!
I know it's been a bit, but I wanted to say thank you. You did a great job on all our hotel reservations at the Turtle Bay Resort. We really enjoyed the free breakfasts! I used my room credit for a massage and my friends went golfing. I know it was a bit confusing with all the room reservations, but you handled everything quickly. It all went perfectly. We all wished we could have gotten those room upgrades but the hotel was so full for Easter weekend. Thanks for trying. Well, I'll be sure to send all my friends your way. Thanks again!

"Hi Stephanie!

It has been some time since I last talked to you but my fiance and I made it to Hawaii and are in complete awe of how BEAUTIFUL the north shore is. Thank you soooo much for all your assistance from the get go and assisting my family with Turtle Bay reservations.

I am actually writing this from Ola at Turtle Bay and the food is so delicious - fresh, fast and great service. I so excited for our dinner I have been bragging to all our friends that this is our caterer.

Also, we did a drive by of Loulu Palm Estate and it is spectacular! So beautiful and EXACTLY what I envisioned!

Thank you for everything. You have a great team and are above and beyond in customer service!

I can't wait until our big day and wanted to extend a special thank you to you and your team. We couldn't be happier!"

Much appreciation,

"My wife and I had a tumultuous time planning our wedding. To make a long story short, my wife and I decided to switch venues at the last minute, about two and a half weeks out from our ceremony/reception date due to the first venue having difficulties meeting our needs. We called Loulu Palm and that is when we started working with Stephanie, who was very helpful and understanding. They gave us a great package with the site, and everything was beautiful. Her untiring coordination with us to book the site and the helpfulness of the party rental people were outstanding. They displayed professionalism and courtesy above and beyond. They were extremely nice to work with. The party rental people were also great, they were on time and easy to coordinate. At the end of the night when it was all said and done. The ceremony and reception was beautiful, and our wedding video is a testament to that. It is a great property with a beautiful setting and backdrop of the ocean, peaceful and elegant."

"Being from the Mainland, and have visited Maui a few times, my fiance I thought a private, personable, Hawaiian destination wedding on the beach would be ideal for us and a venue we assumed would have limitless options for booking on the Hawaiian islands. We quickly found this not to be the case. After researching for a few months on a couple different islands for what was seeming to be an impossible venue, we ran across the Loulu Palm Estate which was exactly what we had been searching for. A couple of weeks after exchanging a handful of emails and speaking with the staff, we quickly booked our wedding 10 months prior to the big day!

... staff is extremely professional, personable and was quick to answer my questions, requests and concerns thoroughly and in a timely manner throughout the 10 months I worked with them. Shortly after we locked in the venue I had the pleasure of working with a highly knowledgable site consultant, Stephanie, (an angel in disguise) whom assisted with many of the important details to accommodate not only me and my fiance, but also our guests. Stephanie helped me with airline options including an affiliate member discount program, all accommodations (from rental homes, boutique hotels, and 5 star resorts), transportation, and had referrals for activities. Best of all, her services were offered complimentary via the estate! Within just a couple of months of our initial contact, our flights, accommodations, transportation, and activities were booked for the bride and groom as well as each of our guests! The perfectionist that I am, I had plenty of questions, sometimes 3...4...5 times a day, and I was provided answers to each of them, and at many times direction from the LLP staff. There were a couple of bumps along the way (of course there was, this is a wedding we're in the midst of planning) and even when it was out of the hands of the LLP, they were more than accommodating in making sure my fiance and I were compensated for those mishaps.....I highly recommend researching wedding coordinators and ensuring you've hired only the best, as at the end of the day, they are the go to person that will ensure all your i's are dotted and t's are crossed and set the bride's mind at ease, fixing any bumps along the way.

The end result....we had the most amazing, romantic, fairytale wedding and reception at the LLP Estate and each of our guests were equally pleased! Thank you, Stephanie! Everything went according to planned on our wedding day, which as any bride knows is a rarity!"

"...We had a beautiful time in Hawaii and our wedding was perfect! The weather was great at the Loulu Palm Estate and everything you arranged at the Loulu Palm was awesome. Our DJ, Troy Michael, did a great job and we would surely recommend him to anyone. Our Caterer, Loren Holly of Kimo's Akamai Catering was very attentive to our needs. He also catered our rehearsal luncheon and his food was the best!Even my cousins from Hawaii were impressed with his local food. You and Erwin were great help withe hotels and all your referrals were spot on! You made our wedding so great we wish we could do it again!"

"Stephanie, Jennifer and I cannot begin to thank you for your great skills and complete attention you applied to our wedding. I told you I wanted an intimate event, with close family, private oceanfront accommodations, and the simplest of flowers, but a grand meal for us all. And you delivered! Great, first class Concierge Service! We will be back again and will definitely look you up. Jennifer sends her aloha, and we both say 'Mahalo' to you and your staff."

"I just wanted to let you know that we loved our vacation in Kauai and are very thankful for all of the help you provided in making our 10th anniversary an occasion that we will always remember! The condo was just perfect and we were really happy with the location. You really do know Kauai! We found lots to do (i.e. helicopter tour, kayak trip, Na Pali coast catamaran tour, Allerton Gardens, and lots of walking on the beach.) I came home with several bags of shells to share with the grandkids.....Thanks so much, for everything!"
