Kim was so helpful in planning our destination wedding! Her and her vendors she recommends were a dream to work with. She was prompt to respond to all emails and questions I had (and there were lots)! Our wedding day was perfect thanks to her and expertise. Hire Kim as your planner!

We hired Kim with IWM to be our wedding planner. She was essential in planning a wedding from another state. Kim has amazing tips, ideas and connections with everyone on the island. Unfortunately, our wedding was forced to cancel due to Covid, but Kim again stepped up and went above and beyond to help retrieve our deposits. Kim always did more than she needed to and we cannot say enough about her. We would definitely recommend Kim as a planner.

My husband and I can't thank Kim and Kama enough for making our special day so magical.

First off, my husband and I live in California, and we wanted to get married at Olowalu Plantation House in December 2019. We contacted Kim and a few other wedding coordinators to set up meetings for February 2019 because that was the only month we could go to Maui before the actual wedding.

We met with Kim first, and my husband and I basically fell in love her right away! She came so prepared, and even got us a goodie bag. She answered all our questions and concerns, and recommended great vendors for us like florals, decor, photography, officiant, Dj service, musician, caterer, bar service, and entertainment! We wanted full event planning, and her pricing is very reasonable. We showed her ideas on what we wanted at our wedding, and she gave us her honest opinion on what the rough budget would be. During our meeting, she had told us that she would send us an idea on layouts, and vendor contacts. After the meeting, we got the information emailed to us even before we confirmed we wanted to work with her. The next day we met with another planner, and they didn't want to give us any information until we gave a deposit on their service. On top of that, we got a very basic print out sheet about what they offer. They weren't as personable as Kim was. Kim was very sweet and warm upon first meeting.

After this first meeting, everything was smooth sailing for us. She would send emails to make sure I took care of certain things prior to the wedding, and a timeline on when to book vendors. She negotiated vendor pricing, and did a lot of the communication directly to the vendor, so I didn't have to. She also answered my questions and concerns so quickly whether by email or text. Not once did she get annoyed with my emails or the many inspiration pictures of how I wanted the florals and decor to be. She also helped me create my reception layout, and our day-of timeline.

The day of our wedding, I was a little nervous to see how everything was going to be set up, because I was afraid that there would be things I wished I had, or if there would be enough florals/decor for the ceremony and reception. Right when I arrived, I was speechless! She had worked so closely with Noni from Maui Palmtree, and had everything I requested and more for the setup. It was absolutely beautiful! There was not one hitch during our whole wedding. My husband and I were able to enjoy our wedding with our guests, and never had to worry about one thing.

If you are looking to have a wedding in Maui, I would HIGHLY Recommend Kim and her team. Pricing is very reasonable for everything they do for you, and she really takes great pride in what she does. I feel like communication is key, and she did a great job in doing that. Thanks to Kim, I had the wedding of my dreams !
