Hawaii Wedding Planners & Directories

Connect with wedding coordinators across the Hawaiian islands. Building relationships with planners is one of the best ways to get consistent referrals.

Why Planners Matter: Wedding planners are gatekeepers to clients. Many destination couples rely entirely on their planner's vendor recommendations. Build genuine relationships, deliver excellent work, and you'll become a preferred vendor.
