“I don’t even know how to begin writing this review as I am not sure that the right words even exist to help me explain how AMAZING my experience with ABC was. Two words, Jade Devaux. That explains it all for me. JADE IS SERIOUSLY A MAGICIAN when it comes to making dream weddings happen! She went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure my day was exactly how I imagined. Jade met me (even on her days off) and every time we spoke it was like talking to my best friend. She was always so nice, so calm, precise with details and her communication was beyond perfect (with me and all my vendors).

Another example of how Jade is a complete superhero was when just 1 day before my wedding. I told her that I didn’t have time to attach my guest favors to the name tags and asked her to please just layer them on the plate instead of tying with ribbon. Jade and her team (working after hours) ended up tying all ribbons onto each favor/name tag and made sure they were set up the next day exactly as planned. They did not have to do this, but they genuinely wanted to, which goes to show how amazing Jade and the ABC team is. I am so thankful I booked with ABC and met Jade. The planning process would have been so stressful and we wouldn’t have had OUR DREAM WEDDING without her. I can’t thank Jade and ABC enough! If you are looking for help with planning/details, vendor recommendations, vendor communication, etc, LOOK NO FURTHER.

I would pay 4x the price all over again to have Jade/ABC’s help… they are seriously invaluable and will make sure your experience is a positive one instead of a stressful one like the horror stories you hear about and see in the movies!”

To start, I couldn’t have made Kendall and Gareth’s day happen if they weren’t as trusting as they were. As you can imagine, planning a wedding all the way from Australia at a venue you’ve only seen photos of, can be daunting. Luckily I and our team are very familiar with Waimea Valley and their in-house caterers Ke Nui Kitchen. Communications can be rough and making the time to plan calls when you’re on opposite time frames is obviously not ideal. Kendall made the time to talk with me and I was more than happy to do the same. I appreciated every bit of time I spent speaking with Kendall because I knew it was precious to her!

My experience at this wedding was one I will forever be grateful for. Hiccups occurred and this couple trusted me to make the necessary calls to ensure their dream day was not jeopardized. Stuff happens right?! This couple rolled with the punches, made my job a breeze, and looked effortlessly gorgeous while doing so. See below 😉
