Thank all the team members! They are professional, patient, amicable, and have good aesthetic. They are also ebullient with enthusiasm. The wedding day became my happiest day in my life because of CJ, Abbie and Emma. They are the best!

CJ and his team were a game changer for our Big Island wedding! They were on top of everything, always had our back, and hooked us up with some awesome vendors. From flowers to food to furniture, they gave us plenty of cool options to pick from. Their thoughtful approach and genuine care made our experience stress-free and memorable. Big thanks for making our day so special!
PS: CJ is also a great photographer!

CJ never delivered the edited photos of my wedding. We eloped and unfortunately chose them. We didn’t have anyone else to take pictures of the wedding. I will say the ceremony was beautiful. I also got flowers through them and I would recommend getting a florist instead. CJ said his wife made the bouquet and the roses were old. Very unfortunate to have never received the edited photos anfter asking so many times. Ultimately I do not recommend. I’ve tried reviewing on The Knott because that’s where I’ve found them and they keep taking down my review. Hopefully guests will be able to see this one.

Thanks so much to CJ and his team: Ismael, Chloe, and Summer for all of their great work in helping us plan and coordinate our destination wedding! We really couldn't have done this without them or have asked for better coordinators.

Because of our busy schedules and procrastination, my wife and I had put off our wedding planning until roughly 3 months before our scheduled wedding date (we had booked the venue + date already from pre-covid). As you can imagine, because of that, a lot of things had to be done within this short time frame. Luckily, CJ and his team was available to help us with the planning and coordinate. I had been originally interested in his team due to his multi-lingual team ( I believe he has team members that speak fluent Chinese, Korean and Japanese).

CJ and Ismael, who were involved in the planning phase, first built an overall timeline of what the day looked like, an initial floor plan based on our venue, followed by a very organized list of vendors that needed to secured, and essential things that needed to get prioritized. They also had many great vendor recommendations based on our budget and our envisioned design. Throughout the planning phase, they were also very flexible and accommodating as we had changed our design ideas multiple times and were quite selective about a few of the vendors. CJ is very honest about certain design ideas and pros/cons for each vendor which was extremely helpful for us in choosing vendors + planning the design.

Fast forward to the wedding day, Ismael, Chloe and Summer were extremely organized and did an amazing job making sure everything went smoothly. Ismael helped us smoothly incorporate some last-minute design ideas for our guest tables, helped coordinate with all of our vendors to make sure everything was there, and made sure the whole event ran on schedule. Chloe was extremely helpful in guiding my wife's and her family (and communicated with them in Korean) throughout the photoshoots and wedding day. Summer was great in helping to get everything set up, welcoming our family + guests, and helping us with our guestsbook.

At the beginning of 2023, the thought of the whole planning process had been a very stressful thought for us, but with the great help of the Hawaii-day wedding team, our wedding turned out to be unforgettable and a lot more fun and memorable than we had expected. They had also made our lives so much easier throughout the planning process.

TL;DR: Hawaii-day wedding team was great and helped us plan everything from scratch in a very short time. Highly recommend them, especially for those with family members from China/Korea.

My husband and I had a fantastic experience planning and executing our wedding with CJ and his team. It all started roughly a year before our wedding date when we decided to have a destination wedding in Hawaii (we are from the continental U.S.). Having never been to Hawaii , we wanted to work with someone who’s very knowledge about local culture and different venues, who’s prompt in answering our questions and who can strike good deals on our behalf. CJ offers very comprehensive packages with a variety of options and we were very satisfied to be able to find something we like. I also had a great experience working with Emma who was there every step of the way to answer all my questions regarding decorating the venue and other logistics for the day of the wedding to ensure everything was arranged the way I wanted. During the actual wedding day, we were even more impressed with CJ and his photo/filming crew’s professionalism and everything went beyond our expectations! In fact, we were so happy with how our wedding planned out that we decided to work with CJ again for our 1-year anniversary photo shoot in Hawaii again! Overall, If you are looking for someone who’s professional, communicative, and flexible in personalizing a wedding plan that suits your need, CJ and his team are highly recommended!

We hired CJ from Hawaii-Day Weddings for Month of Wedding Day Planning. CJ is very professional, organized and attentive to detail. He was responsive of our every need, even last minute changes leading up to our wedding day. On the day of our wedding, CJ and his team made sure the entire day went smoothly. Having a wedding planner like CJ to make sure your special day goes smoothly is priceless. Thanks CJ + team!

We loved working with CJ on our elopement in Honolulu. He was able to put everything together under 2 weeks’ notice due to changing pandemic rules. And I was very appreciative that the entire crew was very flexible to accommodate my schedule due to the unpredictable weather on the island. CJ was very responsive, and his team provided very professional services. I can't thank him enough to help me plan a stress-free wedding, and enjoy my time in Hawaii.

Matt and I had a wedding in Hawaii at Turtle Bay. CJ’s team was a very professional planner, top-notch photographer, and professional editor for the video. They exceeded all our expectations from beginning to end. Planning was seamless and he ensured that every detail of the event, from several days prior to our wedding event to meet and discuss final details, to the very end of the wedding night were all well coordinated. Having a professional planner was definitely a wise investment, as there are so many details to attend to for a special day that it takes much of the burden off the bride and groom for coordination and planning. Having a great planner like CJ to ensure all details and the event go smoothly, along with great photography and videography services that capture the event so beautifully like they did, I can say I wholeheartedly recommend him to ensure your day is only filled with wonderful memories for a lifetime!
