From the moment we connected with Marlene we knew we had made a connection with someone that was going to be a big part of our wedding day. Her warmness, enthusiasm and professionalism set her a world apart from the other wedding coordinators we had contacted before her. The fact that she was immediately asking us how we envisioned our day and not regaling us with pre-planned wedding packages was an instant draw for us. She was also very comfortable and welcoming to our family situation as we have two young children who we wanted to be a big part of our day. This did not phase Marlene one bit, it was as if she planned her weddings for couples who did things backwards and had children prior to marriage! Our 4 year old daughter still talks about “when we all got married”!
Our wedding day and the days leading up to and after it were unforgettable. Kauai is such a beautiful paradise that it is hard not to have an unforgettable time there, but our fond wedding memories are all thanks to Marlene and her fabulous team! Marlene took care of every detail, she found our venue, she assisted with us with our accommodation needs for the wedding, and then on the day of, she took care of every detail. We didn’t lift a finger; we just enjoyed thinking about how perfect everything was! The day truly exceeded our expectations from the ceremony, to the food, right down to the end of the evening entertainment. We had originally asked Marlene to include a Hula dancer or two for entertainment and ended up with our very own Hawaiian Luau!!! It was amazing, truly amazing! And all within our modest budget that we had supplied to Marlene!!! We have been told numerous times by our guests that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! We wholeheartedly agree.
We owe so much to Marlene for all her hard work, planning, dedication and warm touch! We would never hesitate to recommend Marlene for coordinating an event. Her passion for the people she works with and the events that makes up their life memories is unyielding. She goes the extra mile and then some! We not only met a wonderful event coordinator – we met someone that we look to as a lifelong friend and someone that we hope to connect with again on our future trips to Kauai!
