Dear Fay,

The ceremony was everything we had hoped it would be. You have a wonderful personality. We felt comfortable with you the minute we met you. You're kind words throughout the ceremony really brought out the deep feelings of love and respect Rocky and I have for one another. Our happiness can be seen in every picture and I just want you to know that you played a big part in that. We can't thank you enough.

Aloha to staff at Aloha Maui Weddings,

Alex and I cannot thank you enough for making our wedding day a dream come true. It was everything we hoped for and so much more. The service you and your staff provided was outstanding. We were impressed with the ease in planning a wedding that would take place thousands of miles from home. The assistance you provided, in so many areas, such as obtaining a marriage license, picking the perfect location for our wedding, ordering the flowers and cake and referring a photographer and videographer was greatly appreciated. We received everything we were promised at a very reasonable cost with absolutely no worries! Mahalo to everyone that contributed to making our day perfect!!

Sandy and Jake December 26, 2006
Aloha,

I would like to take a moment to thank Aloha Maui Weddings for the most memorable experience of my life.

Jake and I were excited about getting married in Hawaii and you made it very easy to plan and helped me with make decisions on what would be best for our wedding day. Lena I want to thank you for talking me into the wedding video. When we got home, it arrived just a few days later and we were able to relive our entire wedding ceremony. It was well worth the additional money.

I wanted to also say that I felt truly blessed to have been married by Reverend Fay. From the moment we met her, both Jake and I felt a spiritual connection to her. She made our day very special and she was very comfortable to be around. Our photographer and videographer were great also. I am having trouble putting into words my feelings surrounding that day.

You all gave us the memory of a lifetime and getting married in Hawaii just made it extra special.

Thanks to all of you and God Bless!

Youyan and Liang, Novemeber 20, 2005
Aloha Chanti and Shelly,

Millions of thanks for helping us on the wedding ceremony on November 20, 2005. It was perfect - beautiful, sweet, romantic and comfortable. Shelly was very detail-oriented and patient to help me on the planning, and Chanti was so warm and thoughtful during the ceremony. We were very relaxed and enjoyed every moment of it. Also I loved the leis and bouquet you ordered for me, as well as the hair salon you recommended. The photographer and videographer also did a phenomenal job. Actually a couple of my single friends said they may consider having a beach wedding too in Maui after seeing my photos, and I will most certainly recommend Aloha Maui Weddings to them.

I'm just so glad that I found you as wedding planner.

Cheers,
Youyan and Liang

Patrick and Mary October 12, 2005
Dear Shelly,

We really appreciate your superior services in planning and executing our very special wedding ceremony.

Rev. Fay exceeded our expectations in performing our ceremony. She made us both feel very relaxed and comfortable, performing a ceremony that was very sweet and special.

Thank you again for everything. We could not have had a more special ceremony if we had planned it for a year (you planned it in 2 days. . . .) THANKS!

Patrick and Mary

Ken and Fawn August 20, 2005
Dear Aloha Maui Weddings,

Wanted to THANK YOU again so much for making our special day one of the best days of our lives! You did everything so perfect! The beautiful flowers, delicious cake, beautiful doves, amazing harpist, and all the little details in the ceremony that made our wedding so special!

The restaurants you recommended for our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception were perfect, and exactly what we dreamed!! You did everything we had requested above and beyond! We flew 20 people to Hawaii for our special day and everyone was shocked that we found you on the internet and booked everything over e-mails and phone calls! Your expertise and knowledge made it so stress-free and easy! Your services are top notch!

Sheena and Eric September 21, 2005
Hi Shelly and Staff at Aloha Maui Weddings,

It's me Sheena! I wanted to thank you for assisting us with our wedding ceremony on September 21, 2005. It was a dream come true thanks to Aloha Maui Weddings. To be honest I was unsure of the outcome being that we booked everything online. My fears were laid to rest and I WOULD LIKE TO tell everyone you and your associates provided excellent service from the photographer to videographer, florist (I loved my bouquet) and of course Rev. Diana, everything was phenomenal. I will most certainly recommend Aloha Maui Weddings to anyone considering getting marriage in Maui Hawaii.

Eric and I look forward to seeing you in 5yrs to renew our vows. Thanks again for making this a painless effort.

Maisy and Kyle July 09, 2005
Aloha Rev. Fay,

When I first called you, Fay I was a bit of an "anti-bride," with no real vision other than finding myself a cute dress and shoes. I wanted a simple ceremony that focused on sentiment while making good use of Maui's lovely surroundings. Everyone that came to our wedding said they'd never such a beautiful ceremony, and we've got you to thank for that. From the location, to the the flowers, to the photographer, to your eloquent officiating, every single thing about our wedding day exceeded our expectations.

Besides all that, you are truly a delightful person. We are so happy we'll get to think of you every time we look back on our wedding. I would recommend Aloha Maui Weddings to anybody.

Lee and Chondra July 01, 2005
Rev. Fay provided us with the wedding of our dreams. She was quick to offer suggestions, listen, and take action to make sure everything went according to plan. The beach location she recommended was breath taking. She recommended videographers, photographers, and musicians that were all topnotch. My family and guests were blown away by the ceremony and reception.

It was truly a wonderful day that was well planned and executed thanks to Fay and her entire staff.

Thank you so very much,

Carol and Paul May 23, 2005
Dearest Lena and Fay,

Lena, thank you so much for helping us make our wedding day the most happiest day of our lives. You made sure that all the little details were completely taken care of.

We appreciate your professionalism and your warmth. Fay, the vows you created for us were so inspiring and wonderful that our guests want to use the same format for their upcoming wedding. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Shelley and Jason May 14, 2005
We can hardly express enough how wonderful the whole evening was. Jason and I are still reminiscing! You are a true professional at what you do. All your suggestions and recommendations turned out perfect. I feel very confident in referring any friend or family member I know to you in confidence that you would make their day as unique and personal as ours was.

Thanks Fay!

Betsy and Brian May 13, 2005
Thank you for planning our wedding. We had the most perfect day. The location was excellent and the views outstanding. Rev. Diana performed a very lovely ceremony. Our photographer, Linda, did outstanding work. We were very pleased with everything. We had a wonderful wedding day because of everything you did for us.

Thank you, again, for everything!

Kathleen and Mark April 11, 2005
I just had our wedding photos enlarged and they are now being framed - they are sooooo beautiful! Even more so when larger! We've been pouring over our photos and memories of our perfect wedding in Maui. Both Mark and I have been talking about how much we liked Chanti and how special the whole experience was for us. Mark even said he feels a special spiritual bond with Maui - so we're talking about when we can get back - JUST US (no kids this time).

Thanks again for everything you all did for us...it was a dream come true.

Andy and Crista March 7, 2005
Dear Rev. Fay & Lena-

Tom and Vonda Novemember 27, 2004
I wanted to take the time to say THANK YOU so much for everything you did for us. Our wedding was exactly what I wanted. It was relaxing, beautiful and PERFECT. I could not have asked for anything better. My bouquet was stunning as was the cake and the setting was gorgeous. The photographer and videographer did an amazing job. When people asked how the wedding was...I tell them that a more perfect wedding could not have been created. Again, Briana, I cannot thank you enough for the time you put into our wedding or for making it the most beautiful day of my life.

Don and Kathleen October 15, 2004
I want to express my sincerest thanks for helping make a dream turn into reality. The wedding was more than I could imagine.

Aloha Dear Fay,

Arlin and I wanted to tell how thankful we are for everything that you did. Our wedding day was perfect!!! Our on site wedding coordinator (Lena) was excellent, and so was everybody else there, making our day even better. The private location was unbelievable!!!!!. Everything was just how i have dreamed my wedding to be, very private and very romantic.

Thank you so much for making the beginning of our lives together so unforgettable.

Tina and Chad September 12, 2004

It was such an amazing experience and we loved every minute. You and your staff helped to make our wedding daywhat we dreamed it would be. It's great to have such beautiful people in such a beautiful place. It was magical.

We will never forget all the hospitality.

Chuck and Michelle July 28, 2004
Dear Reverend Fay,

Thank you for all you did to make our wedding the most perfect of all days.

Chuck and I are still walking on clouds. Not only was it the perfect weather, the perfect Hawaiian minister, the perfect sunset.....but it was everything we had hoped for.

Thank you and all or our wedding helpers, videographer, photographer, coordinator, musician! They all made the wedding all the more special.

Thanks again and we will be singing you and Aloha Maui Weddings praises from now on.

Anthony and Cindy July 12, 2004
Dearest Reverend Chanti,

Anthony and I cannot express how delighted we were to have you not only as our wedding planner, but also as our minister at the beach ceremony. The ceremony and reception went perfectly and the locations that you help us select were truly amazing! All of the fine details that you carefully organized were much appreciated. The hair and makeup team (Fairmont Kea Lani Hotel) whom you recommended were fantastic. Most of all, the photos and video captured our romance and these memories will always be everlasting in our hearts.

Thank you for sharing our special day.

Alphonso and Karen, April 22, 2004
Dear Fay,

We wanted to let you know that we had the most wonderful experience getting married on Maui and you were a major part of making that a success. The photos that Bob took are incredible and we will have them posted on a website for everyone to see and hopefully share in the experience.

Tiffany and Myles April 5, 2004
Dear Fay,

I was a bride without a plan before I spoke to you. You were the first consultant I spoke with that actually intently listened to my "vision" for my wedding day. You embraced that vision and made it a reality. How can we thank you Fay! Our day was more than we expected and more than we could ask for. Thank you for being willing to wear a variety of "hats". You were my consultant when I needed advice regarding wedding details, my friend when I needed reassurance and confirmation, and my officiate who performed a beautiful ceremony. Our memories will forever live on. Thank you for your professionalism, dependability, and attentiveness!

Dear Chanti,

Thank you for making our wedding a pleasurable experience!  Johnny and I truly enjoyed our wedding ceremony.

Farhad and Sherri March 27th, 2004
Dear Chanti,

We wanted to give you our heartfelt thanks for all of the work and preparation you and your team did to make our wedding so special and beautiful! We're so glad we found you and we recommend you to anyone considering marriage in Hawaii....and our flowers were amazing!

Shawn and Allison Engaged October 30, 2003
Dear Chanti,

I just wanted to send you a quick note to say that everything turned out great! The dinner on Ulua was perfect, our private waiter was very professional, and Allison was completely surprised. A great big thank you from Allison and I to you and your staff, I couldn't have made it happen without your help.

Brian and Romina
We do not have enough words to thank all of you for the incredible service we received on the beautiful island of Maui. It was a detailed, deeply felt, compelling, and an ultimately surprising dream ceremony. Feelings of love and closeness are built by sharing positive experiences like this one. It always will be in our hearts. We are very grateful to all. Brian and Romina

Lisa and Michael
Michael and I want to thank you entirely for our beautiful wedding in Hawaii. It was more then we imagined. The words you spoke, the presence, the scenery everything was beyond our expectations. You are a shining light and we couldn't of imagined our wedding any other way. It was the most spectacular thing and magical! Thank you...Lisa and Michael

Clyde and Vernell
We thank you for really renewing our vows. It was great, just wonderful. We had fun. We felt so relaxed, loose and at ease with you and your team. Vernell is still beaming. She has looked at the pictures and the video every day since we returned. She thinks that I am the greatest thing since sliced bread. You made this happen. She acts like a new bride, this was truly a renewal. The affect it has had on her makes me want to do it every year. With much fondness, Clyde and Vernell

Adrienne and Benjamin
Benjamin & I could not have been more pleased. It was
a wonderful day because you made everything easy
for us. Rev. Fay Hovey was amazing! We can not stop talking
about how beautiful and spiritual the ceremony was. Thank you for everything. We would not have changed a thing! -Adrienne and Benjamin

David and Yoko
ALOHA! MAHALO! THANK-YOU! I do not know how to thank you enough. You have done so much to us and gave us so much support not only all the arrangements but also lots of emotional support. I felt so comfortable working with you in all the process and felt that you are just like my friend always. Thank you very much again for all your help and making our special day more special.
- Yoko

Well, what can I say?! You've worked so hard to make our dream come true, we've put you through hell on the way, but you've done it! And you've always done it with a big 'GRIN'! I know we've said a lot of "thank you's" in our emails, but even if you add them all up, they're not enough to express our appreciation. All I can say is I look forward to you organizing our Maui Golden Wedding Anniversary!
Love - Dave

Jovani and Diana
Fay and Chanti took all the stress out of our wedding. My husband and I were so busy with our careers that we did not have much time to devote to our planning. Fay and Chanti took care of everything and planned an incredibly fun wedding for us and our 75 guests. Several guests said it was the most fun they've ever had at any wedding. And, my husband and I enjoyed it so much, we want to do it again! We're going to renew our vows with Fay and Chanti on our five year anniversary. Thank you Fay and Chanti for making our wedding so much fun and stress- free.

It has been my pleasure to work with Fay Hovey and the staff of Aloha Maui Weddings. As a professional photographer, it makes all the difference in the world to myself and the wedding couple, when a coordinator conducts their business professionally as these wonderful ladies do. Their warmth and attention to details makes for a wonderful atmosphere at all their Hawaii weddings. They have the true "Aloha Spirit"!
