Richard's calming spirit (and wonderful Hawaiian chants!) surrounded all in attendance with a comforting feeling of familiarity, a feeling that added a special sense of family to the ceremony. Combined with the setting sun, the ocean's waves and the sand beneath our feet, his soothing words completed the perfect setting for exchanging our wedding vows. If we were to do it again, we wouldn't change a thing and highly recommend Richard, a very special person who helped make our wedding truly unforgettable." - Kim & Patricia Wolfkill

The spirit that you are is a pleasure to have met, and a treasure for what you brought to the beginning of our marriage through ceremony. It was a tough day in the world but a beautiful day in our hearts. I remember the beautiful sound of your voice but not the words or translation to your chant. You surprised me with your singing voice, actually it melted me inside over the sound of the ocean... gorgeous. Thank you, we will keep in touch." - With much heart, Susie and Spike Gunderson

Your kind words brought several of our guests to tears (our maid of honor, especially!) Thank you again, and we hope to visit beautiful Maui in the near future." - Love, Won Bien and Tomoko Lee

And we felt very blessed to have chosen you for our ceremony. You performed such a wonderful ceremony. Not only did we cry but our guests also cried. We felt at such peace having the ceremony outside and you helped us calm our nerves. We feared the worst having a destination wedding, but we could not believe how beautiful everything turned out. It was the most wonderful day of our lives. Once again thank you so much for such a heartwarming and wonderful ceremony! We look forward to hearing from you soon!" - Jason and Laura Dimora Miller

Both Dave and I thought that your kind and gentle mannerisms helped to calm our nerves and allowed us to focus in on our special moment. I really appreciated your comments to look into one another's eyes and hold hands. I've seen many other ceremonies where the bride and groom focused on the minister during the entire ceremony and miss seeing each other during this important moment. I hope that many more future couples will be able to enjoy your wonderful ceremonies." - Dave and Ivy Engebretson
