Hi Roger,

I apologize for not sending a thank you note right after the wedding, but would like to send my thanks in this email. I just wanted to thank you for such an amazing wedding on March 27, 2007. We are still happily married and counting down to our 10 year wedding anniversary so we can use your services again for renewing our vows. We are still enjoying our magnificent wedding pictures, and video. Both, me and my husband have attended traditional weddings, where the bride and groom are stressed thatthey cannot enjoy their special wedding day. We wanted something stress free, beautiful, unique, and fun. We got all of this and more from your services.

Thanks so much,
Irina

Hawaii wedding testimonial from Joey & Katerina

2009-08-05T05:37:00.002-10:00

Roger, Irene & Mike,

Aloha & Mahalo! I'm finding a hard time choosing the right words to express my gratitude towards you. It being our first time in Hawaii, all of you have made the experience a true blessing and planted memories to last a lifetime. I want to thank all of you for making our wedding a dream come true. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.

Everything went smoothly and stress-free - from the planning over email to the limo ride after marriage. Everyone was so kind, courteous and loving every moment of the way.

During our planning stages of marriage we originally considered the traditional church and ballroom wedding. Our stress levels were rising quickly just putting together a guest list and picking out a location. Weknew we wanted our honeymoon in Hawaii but once we realized that it wasbeginning to be more about pleasing our guests and not ourselves we dropped everything and decided to focus on Hawaii and making it about ourselves and our happiness. A wedding in Hawaii made our worries disappear. It was romantic, fun, adventurous and just about the two of us. It's only been 12days since we got married and are still in awe about everything. We've showed friends and family the pictures and video and they are just amazed at how everything looked and turned out. I quote, "You guys look like a postcard." "Beautiful!" "Just adorable!" One friend even asked where the studio was located here in Houston because the background looked so amazingly unreal!

Many mahalos to Rev. Mike. We were so comfortable and he was so pleasant, we felt like we've known him since grade school! His words and his presence were a blessing. Others have complimented on the warmth and use of his words.

The flowers, the leis, the makeup, the hair, the music, the limo, the pictures, the video, the location ...did I get everything??? Everything was absolutely perfect!

I can't thank you enough! You've captured a special moment in our lives and we relive it every time we think of Hawaii. Thank you for contributing to our marriage and starting it off with pleasant beginning. Many blessings to all of you and may God continue to give you the gift of blessing others as much as you have blessed us.

Many, many mahalos and aloha,
Joey & Katerina

Wedding testimonial from John + Caroline HANCOCKS

2009-06-08T06:14:00.001-10:00

Dear Roger,

May I begin in apologising that this is somewhat belated. With every intention of contacting you on our return to England it has been a busy twelve months. As time went by it became more closer to our anniversary so I felt it more appropriate to contact you when it arrived.

I must thank you for your efforts for one year ago today. It has now been twelve months since we were married and you will be pleased to learn we are still very much together.

I must say your preparation was first rate, and the finish product was excellent. We found Waialae Beach the most idyllic of places and Rev. Bushe the was most nicest person we have ever met (just like yourself of course).

The pictures, woven box, and videos were brilliant. I would recommend you to anyone who would ask. Strangely enough a friend of mine at work got married in the same place, a few months after. If had known, you would have certainly been spoken off.

I hope business is booming in these hard economic times.

Two bits of advice I would give if you are to use this on your testimonials.
1) Get married on the beach on a weekday as it is nice and quiet.2) For you, charge more. You sold yourself short for the services and products you provided .

Once again thank you, I give my best to you and your family. If you see him again say "Aloha" to Rev.Bushe.

Hi, Roger!

My daughter, Erin Leahy Baskay. got married 9/26/08 using your wonderful services. My timing is rather tardy, but I wish to compliment you nonetheless on the entire event. It was fantastic. From everythingErin told me to all that I saw for myself, you made her day a perfect one. Obviously that made my day too! I am sure you have many manyclients & their relatives so I don't expect you to remember us and still wanted to express my gratitude.

I can't tell you how impressed I was overall and in particular with thevideo and still photography. I had my own photography business for 7years in Maryland where I used to live but always successfully resisted wedding photography... just didn't want the hassle and responsibility...and that 'not being able to shoot it over' thing too! The extra effort you made in sending me copies of what I needed for myself and other relatives was also greatly appreciated. I have shown the photos andvideo to so many people and everyone complimented your work. You got so many different & imaginative poses! It's so easy to see that you enjoy what you do, Roger!

I must also compliment you on your make-up and hair artist, who was really good as well as super nice and accommodating. The minister gave a very moving & meaningful ceremony especially for not knowing the couple getting married. The music/guitarist/singer was very special and that spot on the beach was so beautifully scenic! The choice of dinner at Aaron's was truly a top-of-the-line place and the service was great. Even your recommendation for a Luau was superb... it was a perfect place for a family gathering the evening before the wedding.
All in all, the wedding package you put together for Erin and Chris was fantastic as well as the timely delivery of their memory package that they were actually able to bring home with them. I have recommended you to some friends who may be getting married in Hawaii and I know my daughter has done that also, so I hope you get some business through us. You surely produce an extraordinary service! As the mother of the bride, I thank you so much!

Mahalo from the Mother of the Bride!--

Aloha Roger!

We wanted to thank you for such a wonderful wedding! It was just how we imagined it would be. Everything was very simple and intimate, and the pictures you took turned out absolutely gorgeous. We love them and have been sharing them with our friends and family who could not make it to our wedding. Thanks again!

Hawaii weddings - couple's comment

2008-12-31T06:46:00.000-10:00

Aloha Roger!

I/We wanted to thank you for your professionalism in preparing our wedding/renewal ceremony on December 16th! We not only were able to have a sophisticated and beautiful ceremony but were able to have fun during it too! We were also quite impressed with Reverand Frank Mak, what a pleasant and solid individual/mentor!

As we will be returning to Chicago tomorrow, I was wondering what was the status of our photograph cd's and videography dvd's (as you indicated, you would send two of each) via fed-ex. We are very excited to see them:) Please let me know of the status as soon as possible and when you ship, I request that you send an e-mail to me with the tracking number as I will be very watchful for receipt of the package since we have alot at stake in that package:)

Thanks again and again!
Mahalo!

Bless you,

Dear Roger,

We just wanted to let you know we received the wedding pictures/dvds and the box of goodies. Thank you so much....we will treasure everything you sent! We just wanted to write and say thank you so much for making our wedding day sooooo wonderful. You are great and we couldn't have asked for more if we tried! From the painlessness of obtaining the license, to the wonderful Reverend you choose, the beautiful ceremony, gorgeous flowers and the wonderful dinner. Everything was just perfect! We will treasure the memories of that day for the rest of our lives. All of the photos are great and really captured the moment. We will cherish them and the dvds for a lifetime. I cannot thank you enough!

Warmest Regards,
Joshua & Amanda Deeds

Recommended free wedding location on Oahu, Hawaii

WAIALAE BEACH PARK
Waikiki, Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii
(Perfect beach for your small hawaii wedding)

This is the perfect setting for the sand, ocean, palm tree look, and it's free. The nice thing is that there are very few people around where we hold the ceremonies. There are very nice pictures possibilities here. It is only a little way out of Waikiki, but, unfortunately, you cannot see the sun set. Plenty of parking if you drive.
