“We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Sunshower Weddings! From start to finish, they made our entire wedding weekend feel completely seamless, stress-free, and so much fun. Every single detail was thoughtfully planned and executed perfectly, and the decor exceeded every expectation we had — it was even more beautiful than we imagined.

The best part was being able to fully enjoy every moment without having to worry about a thing. They handled everything with such care, professionalism, and creativity, and made the entire process feel easy for us and our families. Looking back, I genuinely don’t know how anyone plans a wedding without their help.

We are beyond grateful for everything they did to bring our dream wedding to life and would recommend them to absolutely everyone!”

Charlie and Samantha – April 2026

“The Sunshower team was absolutely incredible, I received so many compliments from my guests about how well-oiled of a machine they were. They didn’t just plan my wedding day but they planned a wedding experience for my wedding guests at Kona Village!

I had a three day wedding weekend (welcome party, wedding day, beach party) and they took care of every part from top to bottom. My husband and I both have busy jobs so it was so nice to have Kate be super responsive. It was pretty amazing to see her designs come to life, she put the mock ups together for us and it turned out exactly how we envisioned (but even better). I wanted a wedding weekend that was fun, unique but also elegant and she absolutely delivered.

If you’re having a wedding at Kona Village, Kate knows the place by the back of her hands (right down to where the palm trees stand). She has a great relationship with the Kona Village team so was able to request stuff we didn’t even know about! The best investment of my wedding!”

“Working with Sunshower was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, Falynn made the entire planning process feel smooth, structured, and manageable. She guided us through every step, helped us think through decisions we wouldn’t have even considered, and always stayed organized and on top of every detail.

On the wedding day, everything flowed seamlessly, even with some weather uncertainty. The wedding day was forecasted as heavy rain a few days before the wedding, Falynn proactively made many arrangements for backups. Luckily the day turns out to be beautiful. Because of her, we were able to fully relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about logistics.

We also made some last-minute changes to reception details very close to the wedding, and Falynn handled all of it seamlessly behind the scenes.

We were especially impressed with the after party setup—it turned out even better than we imagined, with such a fun and energetic atmosphere. It was truly one of the highlights of the night and a perfect ending to the celebration.

We also really appreciated the support from Sam and Kate on the room block. It was during the December holiday season but they were still very responsive and helped us settle down the room block fast.

Overall, we feel incredibly lucky to have had Falynn and her team supporting us. They made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and enjoyable! All our guests and us loved the wedding!”

“We cannot recommend Sunshower Weddings highly enough. Working with their team made our wedding planning process manageable, organized, and genuinely stress-free. We worked primarily with Falynn, whose attention to detail and organizational skills were exceptional. She provided excellent on-island vendor recommendations, helped refine our design ideas, and was consistently available throughout the planning process. Every vendor we hired through Sunshower’s recommendations exceeded our expectations.

Sunshower also offers an outstanding planning framework. Their website includes vetted vendor lists, timelines, budget trackers, spreadsheets, and shared documents that made it easy to stay organized and customize our wedding. What initially felt like an overwhelming project quickly became structured and approachable with their guidance. For our service level, my spouse and I handled early planning and vendor selection following Sunshower’s timeline. As the wedding approached, the team gradually assumed more responsibility, and by the final six weeks, everything felt fully managed. This transition made a significant difference — in the two months leading up to our wedding, I never felt stressed and trusted that details were being handled behind the scenes.

On the wedding day, everything ran smoothly. The team coordinated vendors, managed setup and breakdown, and ensured the day flowed effortlessly. They were always available when needed while remaining unobtrusive, which allowed us to stay fully present. A special highlight was having Kate, the owner, bring great energy during photos, which truly enhanced the experience. Sunshower Weddings was absolutely worth the investment.

They are professional, efficient, and highly capable. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone planning a wedding in Hawaiʻi.”

Austin and Ari – January 2026

“I can’t recommend Sunshower enough for wedding planning.  I was excited to work with them from my very first phone call and felt in my bones that I would be in good hands with them.  I loved Alison, who was our planner and worked with us from the very beginning—from helping us draft a budget to designing our dream wedding. I felt that the whole team were very detail oriented and Alison was very accessible, even though we were planning a destination wedding while working in China.  Our wedding day was completely stress free, thanks to Sunshower. Alison had planned our wedding itinerary hour by hour, so neither of us had to worry about logistics. And when our an issue came up with our venue two months before our wedding, Kate and Alison were able to talk out a solution with them that made us all happy. I felt supported by the Sunshower team and so excited by the team of vendors they carefully helped us choose. They were worth every penny!!.”

Caitlin and Matt – February 2025

“Kate and the entire Sunshower Weddings team are truly amazing. Kate’s attention to detail and eye for design are incredible. She helped transform our venue from a blank slate into something absolutely beautiful. From the big-picture vision to the smallest details, everything felt thoughtful, cohesive, and perfectly executed. Her creativity, organization, and care were evident throughout the entire process, and it made the day feel seamless and stress-free. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner team and are so grateful for everything they did to bring our vision to life.”

Ben & Shannon – November 2025

“If you’re planning to get married or elope in Hawaiʻi, hire Sunshower Weddings. Of course, I’m biased—we didn’t work with any other wedding planning team—but our wedding day (and the entire week!) turned out perfectly, thanks to Kate and the incredible team at Sunshower. From day one, we felt considered, understood, and empowered to make decisions that aligned with what we truly wanted and needed. We were given the freedom—and the encouragement—to create the wedding we wanted. Kate and the team offered thoughtful advice, creative ideas, and practical support that helped us shape unique details and experiences, making the wedding truly feel like us.

Wedding planning involves so many moving parts—details, hours of communication, spreadsheets, forms—and we honestly can’t imagine doing any of it without them. Even with Sunshower’s support, planning was still a big undertaking—but they made it feel fun, collaborative, and smooth every step of the way.

You spend a long time with your planner (for us, it was over two years), so who you choose really sets the tone for one of the most important and emotionally charged moments in your life. You need someone who knows the industry inside and out, understands the environment and community you’re getting married in, has real relationships with vendors, and is organized, creative, thoughtful, and patient.

When the day arrives, you want to feel both secure and seen—and that’s exactly what Sunshower provided. We got married in April 2025, and friends and family haven’t stopped raving about the wedding. Many have said it was the best one they’ve ever attended—and we owe so much of that to Kate and her team. ”

“Cami and her team at Sunshower Weddings brought our dream wedding to life—truly beyond anything we could have imagined. We feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have had the chance to work with them. From the very beginning, Cami was there every step of the way—reassuring, calm, and grounded, even during the most stressful moments.

Cami felt like our own fairy godmother—transforming our scattered ideas and dreams into something real, beautiful, and far beyond what we imagined. As someone who often gets overwhelmed by making decisions, I truly appreciated how she took initiative and confidently made choices when we needed guidance. She was professional, responsive, and decisive, always providing the direction we desperately needed. On top of that, she kept us on a clear timeline, making sure we stayed on track and completed everything on schedule. I’m genuinely going to miss her—she was with us through it all: the panic, the frustrations, the laughter, and the joy. Her warmth and steadiness made the entire experience so much easier.

Planning a wedding is overwhelming, and I honestly don’t know how we would have done it without her. On the day of, Cami and her team made everything feel effortless and as stress-free as possible. It was such a beautiful, meaningful day—one I wish we could relive again and again. I’m truly sad it’s over. Sunshower Weddings is absolutely worth the investment. I couldn’t recommend them enough. They gave us the Father of the Bride–style backyard wedding we had always hoped for—and more. Working with Cami was an absolute joy, and we appreciate her dedication and kindness more than words can express. Thank you, Cami and team, for everything.”

Ashley & Nic – June 2025

“If I could give them 10 stars I would! Sunshower Weddings did a truly amazing job with helping us have the wedding day of our dreams, that totally exceeded all my expectations. If you’re getting married on the Big Island, this company is a must!

Shout out to Alison or day of coordinator, who not only made sure our special day ran smooth and stress free, but also helped us with planning hours along the way. People though planning a destination wedding would be hard, but Alison made it incredibly easy. Everything fell into place perfectly. She knows this island and the other vendors like the back of her hand, and the other vendors have nothing but GREAT things to say about Sunshower Weddings in general.

I can’t say enough positive things about this wonderful company, who helped make us feel so at home on the Big Island!”

Kailey & Lloyd – March 2025

“100/10, Sunshower Weddings is a MUST for planning your wedding on Big Island! From start to finish, their team was phenomenal, and we can’t recommend them enough.

We weren’t sure if we wanted to have our wedding on Big Island, but after our first call with Kate, it was clear that her team was invaluable and we were sure they were the team we wanted to work with. During the planning process, you can trust Sunshower to ensure your timeline, budget, and tasks are on track. They bring SO much value with their expertise and knowledge of the island, vendors, and wedding timelines.

Kate was so informative with her advice and was dedicated to bringing our vision to life. She advocated for our wants every step of the way. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how attentive, friendly, and on top of everything their staff was on the wedding day. When I realized we couldn’t do our first dance in the dress I was planning to, Kate immediately reassured me and adjusted the timeline to accommodate a dress change, without anyone noticing the hiccup, and took away any stress that we were feeling.

We can’t imagine our wedding without them, and we’re still hearing from guests that it was the best wedding they’ve ever attended. We could go on and on about how Sunshower Weddings is the BEST choice for wedding planning on Big Island. We can’t emphasize enough how valuable their expertise of the island is.

Thank you again Kate & team for helping us have the wedding of our dreams!”
