Bliss Wedding Design

Darren is absolutely the best wedding coordinator, planner, creative director, and friend on Maui! Bliss Wedding Design is nothing but top class, kind, professional, efficient, helpful, fabulous, stellar, wonderful and so many other amazing things I would run out of space describing about them. Our wedding was incredible and our guests are still claiming it's the "best wedding they have ever attended". We think so, but we are glad our 42 guests agree. Remarkable, perfect, and hands down the best experience I've had working across the Pacific ocean to plan my wedding. We will be forever grateful to Darren and his team at Bliss and Petals! More...

I’ve had the privilege and honor to experience an outdoor intimate wedding coordinated by Darren of Bliss Wedding. It took place on the slopes of Haleakala this past weekend. I admired Darrens quick solution to preserve the dining table and furniture with light passing showers. His attention to detail in the accuracy of aligned China, silverware, and linen were impressive and well appreciated. He stood on the outskirts of the event alert and flexible to any change that arose while ensuring the bride, groom, and guests felt as if every moment was created as planned to perfection. I am thoroughly impressed at Darren’s perfessionalism and creative insight. I would recommend Darren and his company to anyone planning an event of any size. You will be surprisingly refreshed with how he will turn your dreams into a reality.

Sincerely,
sister of the joyous bride. More...

We cannot say enough great things about Darren and the Bliss Team. Our wedding was beyond perfect and each and every detail that they had a hand in was beyond anything we could have ever expected. The vendors that they work with are top-notch and everyone that they enlisted to play a part in our wedding exceeded all expectations. The level of professionalism left me feeling at ease throughout the entire planning process and when the day came, I enjoyed every minute of "our day" without having to worry about anything. Things went flawlessly and I couldn't have imagined a more perfect, stress free, BEAUTIFUL event! Each detail, from start to finish, was personal to us and was exactly what I asked for. Thank you Bliss for an unforgettable wedding! We will be returning to Maui at some point in the future to renew our vows and Darren will be the first person I call!! More...

When I first started researching wedding planners on Maui and came across their website, I immediately knew that I wanted Bliss to do our wedding. I gave them a call, talked to Darren, and the rest fell into place smoothly. We had a long engagement so we had like 15 months to plan. We emailed each other a lot. We even skyped a couple times which was great. Luckily we had a chance to go to Maui 8 months prior to the wedding and meet them. Darren organized meet and greets with various vendors and arranged tastings which really helped to solidify our choices. It also helped us get to know each other better so that Darren could get a sense of what we wanted. And he delivered. Even with a major snafu occurring that was out of anyone's control 4 days before the wedding that resulted in us having to move the entire event to another location went smoothly. Darren was calm and collected through all the changes. And the day of I didn't have to worry about anything except enjoying the day. Darren and Shane took care of every detail and the flowers and décor were gorgeous. Our guests had a blessed and magical time. It was simply perfect. It was everything I wanted our wedding to be and more. I wouldn't change a single thing. Reliving moments from the day still brings tears to my eye. It was the best wedding I've ever been to, that's for sure. I may be biased...but it's true. Thank you Bliss for what I can honestly say was the Best. Day. Ever. More...

Shane and the Bliss team were such a pleasure to coordinate with. They were helpful in planning the specifics of the wedding and very accommodating to schedule sessions to speak on Skype. As living in a foreign country and with Shane at a disadvantage being 19 hours difference from us, he never seemed overwhelmed or incapable of meeting our requests. From the flowers to the cake, each aspect of the day was handled professionally and with great care. Shane’s positive attitude, helpfulness and sincere personality put us at ease and made us feel that he truly cared about our wedding and making it the best it could be. In finding out what specifics we were interested for the wedding colors, to the minutiae of recommending a place to iron our wedding garments, to waking up early and picking up our mothers for make-up, Shane made us feel as though we were always the only wedding on his mind and the most important client he had. I can’t say enough about how welcoming he and the Bliss team were, other than ‘Thank you so much’. -Jordan & Kelly More...

The wedding and whole experience was so perfect and dreamy! I would highly, highly recommend Bliss to anyone planning their wedding. More...

Shane Canada and the Bliss Team were fantastic to say the least. We had a last minute wedding (started planning 3 or 4 months prior to the actual wedding), but after having an initial consult with Shane, his enthusiasm, passion for weddings and energy made us feel at right home with him, and he reassured us that we would be able to have the wedding that we dreamed of. Once we locked down the date/time for the wedding, we started the planning process. With only a few months to plan, we knew it would be busy and tight from both sides (given that it was the beginning of wedding season). We were in contact with Shane weekly (usually through email, text and some phone calls) and he took us through the planning process step by step with securing the officiant, photographers, caterers, then the final design, etc. We set up a pinterest board and were able to coordinate and share a lot of the details of the wedding through that board. Being a destination wedding, and not having a chance to meet Shane and his team prior to the wedding and only seeing the Kukahiko Estate online, we were a bit nervous over how the wedding would turn out. But having the pinterest board provided for an easy way to convey the theme we were looking for. When the wedding day arrived, it was the first time saw the wedding venue and design, and Shane and his team absolutely nailed it. Shane had captured exactly what we wanted and the Kukahiko Estate was perfect. Our biggest fear with the venue was that we did not want a space so big that it would swallow up the wedding. We had about 25 guests, and with how everything was setup and laid out, the space and size was perfect. The ceremony and reception were all done on the lawn and it wasn’t too crowded or too large. They also just installed air conditioning in the bridal suite, so getting ready was comfortable as well. Shane and his team did a great job capturing our vision for the wedding and working with him and his team was seamless and easy. More...

Darren gave us a wedding that surpassed our dreams! We gave him ideas and he ran with it; with so much enthusiasm and excitement that it resulted in exceeding our expectations 10 fold! !! Everything from the venue, incredible floral arrangements he designed (WOW), music, catering, and cake (we wish we had room to take it home on the plane with us!!!) We had previously booked with another venue whom we were continually told over and over again, “its not part of "your package", and were nickeled and dimmed at every decision telling us “thats extra”, and then made us do all the footwork. They cancelled our contract on Valentines Day, and that’s when we met Darren and the team from Bliss. Within a week we had more planned with Darren, then we had with the previous venue over a period of 4 months!!! Darren never said “NO”, only “I love it”, or “We can make that happen”, or “That gives me some great ideas” It was so stress free that we went snorkeling the day of the wedding instead of rushing around or worrying about things getting done, infact the months leading up to the wedding were totally stress free knowing he had it under control. When we showed up at the venue, everything we had hoped and dreamed of for our “Big Day” was exceeded in every aspect!!! Because of their passion for what they do, Darren and everyone at Bliss took our ideas and made them into something even better and more wonderful than we ever expected!!! All the Vendors Darren selected are top notch, from the caterer (who was a finalist on Top Chef) to the bakery for the cake, and musician, everything couldn’t have been any better!!! Thanks Darren and the Crew from Bliss!!! Chris & Cassie More...

The Bliss Team helped to make my wedding day a dreamy reality! Darren, Shane and their entire staff went above and beyond when it came to listening to our ideas, planning everything out, connecting us with our vendors, smoothing out any bumps or stresses along the way, making suggestions, being flexible and making sure our wedding day flowed beautifully. They are not only amazingly skilled at what they do, they also have the biggest hearts and know just what is needed- sometimes even before you do! I cant say enough about how professional and talented they are. Not only were they working their magic behind the scenes, but they were also an important part of our wedding experience and memories that we couldn't have done without! Mahalo NUI! More...
