“...David and I have begun to not only miss the island and its relaxed atmosphere over our own hectic lives on the mainland, but also to finally find time to print some of our beautiful wedding photographs and relive that wonderful day in our minds. Merry Maui Weddings gave a wonderful start to what we hope will be a long and happy life together. The photographs are amazing. You managed to capture those moments that will forever be etched in our minds for those who were unable to attend our wedding. For that I thank you. We have beautiful photographs to remember our special day that can transition us back to that moment in time on the beach in a single glance. Mahalo! Ayesha: thank you for a heartfelt ceremony that managed to say exactly what we wished to convey for our marriage to each other. We both were very happy with the wedding and you were beautiful in the photographs. Thank you again, Merry Maui Weddings, for making our special day so picturesque. Your suggestions were priceless from the lodging accommodations to the choice of beach. You made planning a destination wedding as easy as I imagine it could have been. We had no difficulties getting the marriage license, finding a great hotel, etc. Your recommendations really did make our Honeymoon that much better because we liked not only our ceremony but also the resort that you suggested. The staff there was also very helpful at providing their own recommendations for activities and the like. I have decided that Dorthy had it wrong in the Wizard of Oz. I think she should have said, "There's no place like Maui." We had a wonderful time and we can't wait to come back to celebrate anniversaries! Mahalo for making our special day so wonderful! We would recommend you to anyone!” — Angela & David (wedding 7/1/11) 8/1/11

The beach location you suggested was exactly what we envisioned. The ceremony Ayesha performed was so heart felt and meaningful, it really seemed to be written just for the two of us. The video of the ceremony is great and something we will cherish watching for years to come. We can't wait to see the photos but just from the ones you showed us, we know they'll be outstanding.

Our video...is very nice.” — Lisa & Scott 5/26/11
“Well, I dont know what to say!! except THANK YOU so much for your incredible job in capturing such a special day for us!! I was so excited to get the pictures that I took my computer with me in my car while they were downloading!! It is rare that I am in front of the camera...(always behind it) so when I looked at the pictures, I really had to ask myself..."Is this really me" in those incredible pictures! This was a long awaited wedding as we knew where we wanted to get married and with our past relationships ending hard for the both of us after 25 years each of marriage to our first spouses we took it very slow (8 years) . So we started to research ministers and photographers in Maui and for some reason you stood out over the phone.......I think it was because you said to me..." I am the BEST sunset photographer on the island"..(I like confidence!) Plus when I viewed your pictures I saw photos of "older" couples along with younger couples and just got a great feeling... I am SO glad I went with my gut and chose you! It was exciting not really knowing what to expect when we flew in... little did we know, we chose the best!! Ayesha's beautiful words drove my husband to tears, and your beautiful pictures captured my deep love for my husband and drove me to tears when I looked at them... We both thank you for being a part of our wedding... My friend, you dont charge enough!!! You can not put a price on the moments you captured... God Bless both of you!!” — Terri & Willie (wedding 5/5/11) 5/24/11
“It's almost one year now since you met us and officiated our wedding on June 19, 2010. We must tell you how happy we have been not only with the wedding itself, but being "Maui'd" for almost one year now. Charlene and I were high school sweethearts. We went our separate ways after high school and re-united after our 30th reunion. We chose to come to Hawaii and marry in 2010. Not knowing who-what-where-how and all that other stuff, we happened to find you two. We're so happy we did. Without you, we'd still be asking ourselves those same quesitons. Thank you so much for making our wedding so easy, so enjoyable, and memorable.” ‐ Mark & Charlene (wedding 6/19/10) 5/18/11

“...we had (have) our photo disc playing on screensaver slideshow in three rooms of the house, the desktop in the den near the front door, the laptop in the great room, and the Nintendo Wii on the big screen in our basement entertainment area. The wedding photos were very popular with all of our 40 or so guests. The quality of the photos made for eyepopping results. The lighting, colour, backdrops, and composition impressed everyone. Just wanted you to know that your work was of fine quality. Helen and I enjoyed our marriage ceremony. Even though we were in an informal setting, the ceremony was formal enough that we felt we were participating in a sacred rite. The exchange of leis is a nice addition to the ceremony and we will always know that we were joined in a way that was unique, that most mainland couples do not experience. I would recommend a beach wedding to others as you can be more relaxed their and enjoy yourself instead of worrying about all the little things that can go wrong in a church service. We would like to extend a thank you for making our happy day so unique and special. We won't be able to forget the memories of the beach that day and really what more can you ask for than fabulous memories of your wedding day. Arranging our wedding with you from the online ad took a leap of faith, as you don't know what to expect, especially when you're having a beach wedding. But our day was excellent and we would be happy to endorse your company with a brief write up. You may also use any of the photos from our wedding to advertise with.” — Helen & Steve Drew (wedding 11/17/08) 12/17/08

The (private) luau was AMAZING!!! Everyone had such a great time, and I have NEVER seen my dad get up an be so happy to shake his behind in front of people. It was so wonderful to see everyone having such a good time. Marcie (hairdresser) made me cry before the wedding even got started! I have never felt so beautiful in my entire life! I was really worried about my make-up and hair to tell you the truth because there was no pre-trial or anything, but when I looked in the mirror when she finished I didn't even recognize the girl looking backing at me, I was so beautiful, and in all the e-mails we've received from people who have seen photos, EVERYONE, without fail, comments on how beautiful I looked. She is a true professional. Our wedding was by far the best wedding I have ever been to, and my parents went out to dinner with the rest of the relatives who came from my side of the family, who all agreed and said that people would be talking about our wedding for years. My parents and Akinori's parents have asked me over and over again to make sure that I thank you both on their behalf as well. We are all just so appreciative of everything you did and that everyone did for us to make our day so perfect and so special. I don't think there are more words that I can use to express justhow much we loved every single minute of that day, and how appreciative we are of all of your help. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Aloha Maui Beach Bluff was everything I had pictured and more! No words can describe the joy I felt during our wedding. We have had so many people tell us that our pictures look like they are from a magazine!

I have already recommended Merry Maui Weddings to a coworker, and will continue to recommend you to anyone who is wanting a PERFECT wedding!! I have already told some of my family, that one day I would love to bring all of them for a vow renewal! I am also trying to talk my grandparents into a vow renewal for their 50th wedding anniversary next year!

November 4, 2006 will always be a special day for us, but thanks to both of you, we will never forget the ceremony. It was just the two of us in body, but many of our family members were there in spirit, and thanks to the lovely pictures our family at home got to see how special this day was... I have to tell you the picture of the two of us against the sun setting, looks like rays from heaven, God's presence between us. I see it as a sign from above that this marriage is blessed. So many of the pictures are beautiful... but this is one of my favorites as I feel all the presence of 'special spirits' with us... Working with you I felt like I already knew you. You always kept in touch, returned calls, even gave us directions to the cove a few times, and never once made us feel like even though there were just the two of us there, that it wasn't important enough. I know your intentions come from your heart, and I could tell how much you love your calling by all the efforts you put into making our day special.

Everybody was so great helping us to make this the best without our family there. I want to thank you so much for that!!!!!! Lee was so worried about coming there because he is just a true country boy from Mississippi that has never been really any where exspecially that far for so long and for that many days, but I guess he better get use to that considering I am the adventurous type, and am up for anything. hahaha!!! We are already planning back in the near future. I also want to let you know we wont be alone this next time we have a baby on the way, due at the end of December. We will get to find out what it is the 25th of this month. Yeah!!! We are so excited!!! I just thought yaw should know cause yaw all bacame like family the time that we was there helping us through everything, and letting us know it was going to be okay without our family there since we were both upset and stressing over that, but yaw made us not even worry about anything but each other and that was great. Well I am fixing to let yaw go since I have practically wrote a short story, but please lets keep in touch. Thank yaw so much for making our wedding the Best!!!!!!” — Ashley & Lee Herndon 7/9/05

“Dear friends at Merry Maui weddings, Wanted to thank you for making our 10 year wedding vow renewal more special than the first (done by others). The comfort in the calls with Jessica were a great start. As you knew I was really nervous since we had a bad experience at our 1st wedding. But WOW! the rose Bouquet was beautiful, the harp player & the ukulele music was soooo romantic and set the mood. Ayesha's hula dance was special and the help with the dress was appreciated. I have to say i was nervous about getting the pictures at the airport, but they are beautiful. I can't wait for all our friends to see them at the reception. I have put them in a wedding album and scrap booked them. The rose petals in the heart was so beautiful and i cant say enough about the beach.... It was all Michael and I dreamed about. Now in the peace of our home we look at the pictures and are so impressed. Even the certificate has been entered in the wedding album and I love the Hawaiian colors it had. Rev. Kimo was the bomb he looked like a Hawaiian just as we wanted!! He knew just what to say and well I know God's Spirit was there - it was obvious. Thank You for making it a special day! God bless you guys.” — Carmen and Michael del Castillo 6/8/05
