“Words cannot even express how grateful I am for finding Sunshower and choosing them to plan my wedding! I apologize for the lengthy review but I have too many good things to say about them! Our initial proposal call was with Kate, who was able to give us the breakdown of how it all works. Off the bat, she made us feel comfortable and explained our different options based on our budget. We went with the “DIY” option which meant I was the one reaching out the vendors for pricing, availability, and other details - but to clarify, I NEVER felt like I was doing it alone.
Also - their vendor list & description of each vendor (which is included when you hire them) was top notch and extremely helpful. They also create a special portal for you which has a plethora of helpful information such as how to get you marriage license in Hawaii, places to have your rehearsal dinner, pros and cons of first look, guide to hiring vendors…the list goes on and on. The portal also has folders for vendor contracts, decor inspo, guest&budget tracker & more. We also decided to have a coordinator during our wedding (the BEST decision) & included with that you get to choose items from their decor closet (separately this is $750).
Alison was our wedding planner and she was absolutely amazing. I was lucky enough to meet her in person while visiting the big island prior to the wedding. She was so warm and friendly, it felt like we already knew her. We had a total of 2 planning calls and many emails. After each call or email response, I would feel less stressed and more excited. I ALWAYS received a quick response when reaching out.
During our rehearsal, Alison and Morgan were the best - they explained all the details that would happen during the wedding and our bridal party felt well prepared. Alison made sure we handed off everything to her that was needed so we were able to feel as worry free as possible for the wedding. The real magic happened the day of the wedding. Sunshower was able to create my dream wedding. Every little detail was perfect.
I also wanted to mention my dress had a little hiccup but Alison was able to fix it for me! Alison and her team worked so well together! Everyone was friendly and helpful- they did an amazing job. If you’re reading this review and looking for someone to plan your wedding, choose Sunshower! I could not have done it without them. Thank you for making it such a perfect and magical day. I would do it all over again!”
