Vendor Review (Oahu & Paradise Cove)

Hi Ladies

I was not much of an active poster on this board, but did lurk, so I wanted to come back and share my experiences in case they are helpful to future brides. My wedding was on June 6 at Paradise Cove with our "reception" at Roy's at Ko Olina.

Paradise Cove - I had a great experience working with Camille. She was always very responsive leading up to the wedding and never tired of my endless questions :) The setup was beautiful, we loved our ceremony and the use of the beach area for pictures after the ceremony. Overall, the location and experience were exactly what we were wanting and we could not have been happier.

Kalehua Featheran (peformed the ceremony) - Kalehua did a wonderful job, he was easy to work with, met with us ahead of time, and went above and beyond to personalize the service (he even ended up performing a song for us at the end of the ceremony because the guitarist was not familiar with the song we wanted).

Erwin with Dave Miyamoto (photographer) - This was the photography service that came with the package at Paradise Cove, however Erwin was not a cookie cutter photographer. He was extremely friendly, professional, and even stayed longer than he was supposed to in order to make sure we got every picture we wanted.   

Roy's at Ko Olina (dinner after the ceremony)  - The best meal of the trip, hands down! Everyone loved their food, the service was excellent, and working with the staff ahead of time was a breeze!

If anyone has specific questions, feel free to PM me.

    I had Erwin also, he was great! I was very happy he came with our package. I even booked an extra sunset shoot and it was well worth it. Glad you had a great time and a wonderful day!

    Does anyone have any pictures of the Top of Roy's banquet room in Ko Olina?? I have been searching for pictures because it seems like exactly what we need for our 'reception."

    Thanks!!
