Aloha Kathe,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write me an send your business card... sorry I didn't get the chance to meet you at Kathy and John's wedding.  It was such a beautiful wedding and i was so honored to be a part of it!

I'm so thrilled to know that they enjoyed their cake and that you also had a chance to taste it... Thank you for the wonderful comments!  I look forward to working with you on future projects.

Dear Kathe,

Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding everything we hoped it'd be - and more.  We couldn't have done it without you!  You've been a super star throughout the entire process; and we have a perfect day in paradise to show for it.                                  Dior and Keith

Aloha Girls,

 Well we are all back home now.  I had no desire to return at all, it was a very short 3 weeks that went by far too quickly, but the memories and fun we all had was way beyond our expectations.  We already have over 500 pictures of the entire week and all that took place.  Traci has a photo album already put together. 

It was so nice to have a wedding that wasn't just a 5 hour event, we had the whole week of events. Destination weddings are the way to go.  We don't have her wedding pictures from Jim Creed Photography yet, maybe in a few weeks, we can't wait to see them.

I wanted to thank you both for all of your time, help and most of all support (Kathe!) when I would have a panic attack.  Your time, help and hard work was invaluable to all of us, you both became friends, we never felt like we were just a client and just another wedding.  I wish you both all the happiness in life (you're off to a good start living in the islands) and so very much success in whatever path you take in life.  Anyone that is lucky enough to have either one of you as part of their wedding or event is so fortunate.

Again thank you for all of your help, Traci and Matt would not change a thing, they are so happy with their wedding and still so excited about it.  We received so many compliments on the Pavilion (thank you even with the rain it was beautiful), the food, everything surprisingly turned out great at Turtle Bay, Kelly promised to make it a great night and along with you in charge Kathe, it was.

When we receive the wedding photos I will have Traci send one to you.

I wish you both much Aloha and happiness; maybe I will be lucky enough to see you over the holidays.

Hi KathE,

Kristin and I can't thank you enough for everything you've done for us, especially on the day of the wedding. Everything went smoothly that day and we know it was a result of your hard work.

We loved all of your vendor recommendations and we really appreciate that you were always offering your help and checking in on us for any updates. It was great working with you and if we have any friends who plan to get married in Hawaii, we'll definitely recommend you. Don't worry, we'll make sure the bride has no intentions of being carried down the aisle by guys dressed in native Hawaiian attire.

Let us know if you're ever in San Francisco. Maybe we can get together at your old stomping grounds at the Hard Rock Cafe.

Take care and thanks again!
Darren and Kristin, July 2006

Dear Gayle, Kathe, and Gayle Weddings,

Thank you so much for all your hard work helping me to pull off my BIG DAY!  Thanks to you, I felt extremely secure that everything would run smoothly.  It was truly a pleasure to work with the both of you. 

Sincerely, Allison and Stephen

Hi KathE-

You did such a great job with our wedding! Everyone is asking me if I’m local and/or had come to Hawaii to put this wedding together, I told them the best decision I made is when I hired YOU! Thank you so much!  I will certainly recommend you to everybody I know who would plan a destination wedding!  I’m so glad you like what you do, because you certainly fit so well.  I’m grateful that I have met you and there’s someone like you who helps brides like me that makes their dreams weddings come true!

Mahalo!

KathE-

We truly appreciate all your hard work in making today so special for us!  Without you, our entire trip would not have turned out as well as it did. You, single handedly helped alleviate the street ha comes with planning a destination wedding!  We will definitely recommend you to anyone looking to plan a wedding or a party!  Many Thanks!

Best Regards-

Puna and Jennifer

Hi! My name is Dayna & my wedding was on May 25, 2007. Without KathE, I wouldn't have even HAD my wedding! KathE was my rock during all my bridal madness! I could count on her with all the details that I needed done. She researched the hotels for me & gave me detailed pros & cons in order to help me make the best decision. I was clueless when it came to finding a photographer, so KathE recommended Jim Creed and he was the absolute best photographer a bride could ever hope for! KathE was there with me every step of the way, coordinating my wedding day so flawlessly that NOT ONE thing went wrong. I had my fairy-tale, magical wedding & I didn't need to worry about a thing. KathE made sure the hotel staff had everything in place, she even helped my parents with the decorations, & she never left my side until I was finally on my way down that beautiful aisle towards my handsome husband-to-be! KathE is organized, diligent and caring and because of her, I can forever look back on my wedding day with happy, loving tears in my eyes. My husband & I are celebrating our 6 month anniversary today & what better way than to give thanks to the person who made our dream wedding come true: KathE!

 Dayna and Jason Yoshioka

You have been a Godsend! Thank you very much for taking charge, I really am thankful for your help, I couldn’t have survived this without you!  Thank you, KathE- I hope to work with you again!

Mother of the Bride

Hi KathE,

 John and I just got back from our honeymoon to Bali. It was such a beautiful trip. I received your card with the pictures you found. Thank you so much for saving those for us. I was wondering what had happened to those pictures. I figured they might have been tossed in the garbage.

 I wanted to THANK YOU again for all your hard work and dedication throughout our wedding. You went above and beyond my expectations. I couldn't have done it all without you. You saved my big day from being a disaster! Every bride needs to know that she will not be able to do it herself, no matter how organized or in control she is. You are welcome to use me as a reference anytime. Your great services was worth every penny and we can't stop telling you how wonderful you were.

 Thank you sincerely for making it such a relaxing and happy day for both of us!

Yours Truly,

Kathy & John Rust

            By some chance, I found Gayle’s website. I sent an email and she called the next day! She answered many of my questions. Remaining undecided, I waited about seven months. Seven long months of high stress, and of not even being able to allow someone to bring up the dreaded question, “how are the wedding plans going?”  When I did email Gayle, I realized she must have kept a copy of my original email and our phone conversation because she recapped all the details. So, I decided to get the help before I went crazy.

Thank god I did. KathE was able to give me a list of vendors that she or Gayle worked with before. She gave me good sound advice and let me ramble on in emails of my frustration and anxiety in deciding who would work best for our day. She was prompt on returning my emails and we got to speak on the phone a couple of times before we left for Hawaii.

            Finally, the day came and we met KathE face to face. It was like meeting a friend I hadn’t seen for years. After communicating for four months through email, I felt like I had known her for years and KathE became a friend. I cannot explain how helpful it was having her and Gayle on my side through this whole process. And on the day of the wedding, she was right there if I needed anything. We were running late for our reception dinner, all I had to do was let KathE know, and she took care of it.  KathE truly wants to help create a day you will remember the rest of your life. She was patient with my anxiety when making a decision and gave good advice when I did not know what decision to make.  The vendors she recommended where professional and the results showed in our pictures and video we show our family that couldn’t be there.

            Therefore, the result was a beautiful and perfect day for my husband and me. We had a beautiful intimate wedding with the people we are closest to and an awesome dinner followed by a very special luau. If I had to do it over again, I would have not waited so long to decide to hire Gayle and KathE for what was truly the most special day in our life, so far.

KathE and Gayle thank you so much for helping to make our wedding dreams come true!

Rachael and Bill

We just wanted to let you know that we celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary on July 10th, 2005. We also welcomed a new addition to our family on May 11, 2005 (coincidentally is about 9 months from our wedding day). Things have been so hectic with a 2 1/2 year old and a 6 month old. We watched our wedding video on our anniversary and everything was so perfect and I don't think I got the chance to tell Gayle "thank you" for the wedding of my dreams. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way and I couldn't have imagined it any differently. I don't know what I would've done without Gayle and her assistant Kathy on my big day. I still have her contact information and I will be sure to use her again for any major party of event. We look forward to the holidays with my joy and happiness. Happy Holidays!

Ted and Sabrina

Hi Gayle,

We just wanted to say thank you to you, especially Kath-E and Carolyn for all the work they did to make our wedding day a special one.  Kath-E was great from the day we met her and we just can't stop singing her praises.  We all adored her (the families and wedding party included). 

Can't believe our wedding is over but the team at Gayle Weddings made our wedding day the most talked about wedding among our families and friends.

Mahalo Nui Loa! 

Ken and Jen
