  Best investment I made for the wedding

  Don’t hesitate to hire Dayna if you are considering it! Hiring Dayna as a day of coordinator was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! She was recommended to me through my venue (Outrigger Kona). From day one she was easy to talk to, responsive, and communicative. Together we worked through ups and downs (I had to move up and downsize my wedding).
  
  Dayna offers a number of packages and I used her as a day of coordinator. I initially reached out to various vendors to set the date and general asks on my end. Closer to the wedding Dayna took the reins and handled the details, setting up a timeline and filling coordinating details with the vendors like pick-up/drop-off, set-up, etc. It took a lot of weight off my shoulders for the days leading up to the wedding and especially the day of.
  
  Dayna thought of all the details and the wedding day went better than I even thought possible. (I thought it would be great, but it was amazing!) When I didn’t have extra baskets for card collection and other knick knacks for the guests, she brought her own. She even came to the rescue of my flower girl who popped the seams on her dress by having a packet of safety pins handy.
  
  I’m sure Dayna would be equally great doing full service coordination. It’s clear she has a lot of relationships and know-how. I cannot recommend her enough!

  An Unforgettable Wedding Experience Thanks to Naupaka Events and Weddings

  I cannot recommend Naupaka Events and Weddings highly enough! From the moment we began planning our timeline, Dayna was incredibly attentive, organized, and enthusiastic. Her attention to detail transformed our vision into reality that far exceeded our expectations for our big day. Throughout the entire process, Dayna was always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and calm our never. She seamlessly coordinated with our vendors, ensuring that everything ran smoothly on the big day. The decorations, the timeline, and very little detail were executed to perfection, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy our celebration. Dayna, Chris, along with their Naupaka Events & Weddings crew were really passionate for creating unforgettable weddings. Their warmth and professionalism made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. My family are still raving about how beautiful and well-organized our wedding was— all because they made it possible!! We couldn’t have done it without them!!

  Incredible!

  Dayna and her team at Naupaka Events were incredible! Our wedding day was amazing and it would not have been as successful without Naupaka Events. Throughout wedding planning, Dayna was so easy to work with and reach, responsive, flexible, and helped me stay organized and on track during this whole process. Rehearsal was a breeze and Wedding Day, we were able to sit back and relax and just enjoy the day. We cannot thank Naupaka Events enough for making one of the most special day of our lives just incredible. I’m recommending her to any and everyone having a wedding in the Big Island.

  Best decision ever!!!

  Dayna is amazing! Leading up to the wedding she was so helpful giving us ideas for the day. She had so much insight that I never would have thought of. We had multiple meetings to make sure everything was good to go. When it came to the rehearsal and day of she was calm and organized. No matter what came up she was ready to pivot to find a solution. She saved me by having extra Bobby pins and Tylenol when I needed it! I highly recommend especially if you are not local to Hawaii. Dayna checked out our venue and chatted with vendors providing lots of photos so it felt like I was there! 10/10 recommend Naupaka Events & Weddings!

  Dayna is Your Trusted Partner

  I made a commitment to have the wedding in 6 months. With nothing planned and never tried on a dress. I visited a few resorts on the Big Island in person, and got their recommend planner lists, that's how I found Dayna.
  My priorities are clear. I want the planning process to be efficient, and stress free. Which requires a planner that's clam with strong communication skills, and very well organized.
  Dayna and I immediately clicked! I have a busy work schedule, some-what typed A, have been known as the "Planner" for all trips in my social circle, and have planned multiple corporate events (100+ attendees) from start to finish, very good with numbers and keeping budget. Some would say a harder bride to work with, one planner actually told me in honesty, which I very much appreciate, that we won't be a good fit.
  The key is Dayna respected me and understood me! She even suggested with my background and knowledge, I would only need her for her 2nd full package, as I was going to hire her for her most covered package, and saved me $3k just there. We didn't sign till after I secured my venue, and she was already helping me.
  Since we were on a tight timeline, (4 months left), we met weekly for 30-60 mins to discuss progress and kept me on track. She's also very responsive with her emails outside of our meeting time to answer urgent questions. She was always calm and respectful, which I found very very helpful in the planning process. She never tried to force anything on me and knew when to voice her opinion when I was going down the wrong path. I was able to pick out all of the vendors based on my own likings and research, with her expert advice. When I ran into issues with the venue, she's also able to stand up for me and took away my stress.
  The wedding day was busy and passed so fast but I was able to just enjoy and not to worry about anything. Because Dayna is a trusted parter. She was with me every step of the way, and understood my full vision and had all the backup plans. All in all, I can't thank her enough for all this.
  I 10/10 highly recommend her. Especially if your priority is to have a efficient, stress-free and smooth planning process.

  So grateful for Naupaka Events/Dayna

  We hired Dayna about a year before our wedding in Kona. From the first time we spoke with her, we could tell she was knowledgeable, professional and very calm. We hired her for our day of coordinator (she takes over 30 days before) and she was always available for small questions throughout the planning process. To say she was one of our most trusted and important vendors is an understatement.
  
  Like any wedding, we had small hiccups on our big day but Dayna and her team took care of everything with ease. She was able to rally all our vendors together as a cohesive team and always made sure we were comfortable. We honestly didn't notice any of those said "hiccups" and we had the best wedding day.
  
  Our wedding day was so memorable and the planning process was made much easier because of Dayna. So if you're looking for a day of coordinator and considering Naupaka Events, don't hesitate because they are amazing.

  So grateful for Dayna and her team!

  The best decision I made when planning my wedding was hiring Dayna as my coordinator! There was never a moment on my wedding day when I felt stressed or overwhelmed because Dayna took care of EVERY detail and made my dream wedding a reality. She is professional, experienced, knowledgeable, and so easy to work with. I would most definitely recommend her for wedding and event planning/coordinating.

  Responsive and enthusiastic

  We were together many years before we decided to elope, and we didn't want to wait. Six weeks after I reached out to Naupaka Events, we had our fairytale wedding. I was so impressed with how quickly everything came together, no detail was forgotten. All of the vendors were talented, truely lovely individuals. We invited no guests, but
  we were surrounded by some much love that day.

  Simply the best

  Dayna is an absolute pleasure to work with! Her and her amazing team made our special day go so seamlessly and effortlessly. It is not easy planning a wedding thousand of miles away, but Dana was so helpful when it came to vendor recommendations that the majority of the time we went with her recommendations and were definitely not let down! Her help as well in day of coordination made life so much easier and less stressful. Again, Dayna and her team are amazing, I have nothing but great things to say about them. Without hesitation, I can’t recommend her enough!

  So responsive, made our wedding perfect

  Dayna was so easy to work with, we were planning from the east coast, and she was so helpful doing site visits when we picked the venue, and made planning all the other details incredibly easy as well. She was super patient with us as we made changes, and kept everything straight so we didn't have to worry about anything. We did have some issues with vendors backing out, but Dayna solved these problems very quickly and with little stress to us. The wedding day went beautifully, and we didn't worry about any details. Our wedding could not have been more perfect, and Dayna made that happen.

  Naupaka Events went above and beyond for us!!

  I cannot say enough about Dayna and her team!! She's ON IT! I give her a 10 out of 10 for her communication and responsiveness (which is critical when planning a wedding). The week of the wedding and wedding itself was magical! It was stress free (even though my husband was injured the day before the wedding!). One of the things I loved the most was that she's highly regarded and well respected among all of the vendors on the Big Island and that's worth its weight in gold when it comes to getting things done. She had fantastic recommendations for all of our vendors and helped us put together the "dream team"! She's also just a really cool and fun person and I consider her a friend. Thank you Dayna!!

  Perfect day thanks to Dayna

  Dayna made planning our destination wedding truly effortless. She executed our vision perfectly and was always willing to answer questions throughout the process. I’m so sad my wedding is over because I don’t know if I’ll ever get the opportunity to work with her again! Not only is she a master of her craft and so detail-oriented, but she is kind and genuinely wants the best for her clients. My husband and I knew immediately after meeting with Dayna that she was the one we wanted to guide us through wedding planning. Her warmth & kindness was evident through our Zoom calls and in person, even more so. She and her husband made us feel so at ease the entire day and the days leading up to the wedding. She is truly an angel. Thank you, Dayna & Chris! We can never thank you enough!

  Incredible

  You should 1000% hire Dayna and her team to coordinate your wedding day.
  
  Truthfully, I thought I could plan and execute my wedding by myself…and I’m so glad I didn’t.
  
  Dayna’s expertise is unmatched. Leading up to the wedding, she asked me questions on items I didn’t even think through to ensure a seamless wedding day.
  
  Dayna is cool, calm and collected. I had a storm forecast during my wedding week and she brought an energy that allowed a positive perspective leading up to the day thinking through plans A, B, and C.
  
  Dayna is reliable. She not only followed through on all her promises, but exceeded my expectations fully. Even 6 months prior, Dayna gave me the same attention as she did on my wedding day.
  
  The week of the wedding was hectic and the little details really started to matter. Dayna really kicked into high gear at this time and took a ton of stress off my plate so I could truly enjoy the experience.
  
  I spoke to three other vendors before choosing Dayna. I felt her approach to coordinating was the most practical, welcoming, and genuine. I could reach out to her at any point through text, phone, or zoom (1 year or 1 hour out) to lean on her expertise.
  
  I had a strong vision of what I wanted my wedding to look like. I picked and planned many of the big ticket items. But I am so sure that my wedding day would 1) not come out as beautiful as it did 2) be an unpleasant headache if I didn’t have Dayna coordinating. She’s more than worth her price to make your wedding day special.

  Naupaka Events is The Best!

  With a timeframe of only one month, Dayna transformed our vision into a gorgeous reality. She was very hands on throughout the planning process, thoughtful, and professional. Dayna was great about creating and making recommendations to our timeline and details that would make sense logistically and meet our vision. We also loved that she set us up with Aisle Planner to stay on track with details and deadlines. Dayna and her team were all so attentive, responsive, professional, and kind. They brought my husband and I so much peace of mind. She had all details planned to a tee which allowed us to really sit back and enjoy our wedding day.

  Large Outdoor/Ranch Tent Wedding

  Working with Dayna was an easy choice! She went above and beyond with her team to help our wedding vision come to life. She was available before typical 30 days to create cohesive plans, advice on vendors, and smooth out details. Her calm, dedicated, passionate demeanor made it a pleasure to work with her from afar for our destination wedding. We did the planning ourselves and she helped us implement to achieve an 130 person outdoor/tent wedding with tangerine place cards that we wouldn't have been able to do without her help setting up/etc. We might've created a little tight of a timeline, so we did loose time at multiple points during the day and got behind with the photographer, but the day was still amazing. On the day of, when things went wrong (e.g. my father collapsing, my lei being to large), she was able to find solutions with the other vendors so that we could continue to enjoy our day! I could not recommend dayna more!

  Fantastic Big Island, Hawaii Wedding Coordinator

  We worked with Dayna at Naupaka Events to coordinate our wedding on the Big Island in Hawaii. Dayna was extremely professional and responsive to all of our needs and ensured everything ran smoothly the day of. We planned our wedding from a different state and couldn't have asked for a better person to rely on. Dayna met with us a couple of days before the wedding to iron out last minute details, and even though we had some tentative timing scenarios due to our hotel check-in time, Dayna ensured we had a back-up plan for everything and was incredibly flexible to ensure the day followed our vision. We had absolutely no stress on the day of; we just showed up and felt completely secure in knowing Dayna had everything covered. We recommend Naupaka Events to anyone planning a wedding or elopement on the Big Island - you will have a great experience that is entirely worth the value.

  More than 5 stars!

  I cannot recommend Naupaka Events & Weddings enough. We had a small destination wedding (site unseen!) and Dayna truly made everything go more smoothly than I could have ever imagined. Leading up to the big day, Dayna was always very responsive and quick to answer any questions. I felt like the really understood the vision we had for our wedding. She's always on top of things, never missing a beat and staying one step ahead so that you don't need to worry about forgetting anything. She knows the Island and event vendors SO well and that makes a huge difference.
  
  On the day of the event(s), Naupaka Events + Weddings ensured everything was executed perfectly. When small, last-minute changes inevitably arose, they handled them seamlessly, keeping everyone calm in the process (and also managing the some strong family personalities like complete pros! :) ) The team went above and beyond to add incredible personal touches that truly made the day.
  
  Dayna & team are the best coordinators you could ask for... 100% recommend!!!

  Truly the best

  I can’t thank Dayna and her team enough for being the back bone of our special day. From the initial call to the day after the wedding, they were there for us. We had a larger wedding that required a extra elbow grease. Helping us find the right vendors and getting additional staff to be sure the day went smoothly was just what we needed. After working in the wedding industry myself I knew how important having a day of coordinator was. Not only did Dayna meet my expectations, but she treated me like family. She checked in at all the right times and any hiccups that may have happened along the way were unnoticed. I absolutely recommend Naupaka events for your special day!

  Wedding Coordinator

  Dayna was incredibly helpful leading up to our day. Kawe was the perfect coordinator. Checking in with me throughout the night, helping keep the event on schedule, answered all of my questions, assisted with making decisions, listened to all of my ideas and helped me bring them to life. Also directed all of my family that were helping get the venue ready, which allowed me to get ready with no stress or worries. She was accessible, took initiative, incredibly kind to not only me but all of my guests, she handled hiccups so that I did not have to. Would strongly recommend Naupaka Events & Weddings. Absolutely the best coordinators I could have asked for!

  Dayna and her team did a phenomenal job planning and especially executing on the day. No job is too small or too big for them. Highly recommend.
