The Fairmont Orchid, Hawaii

My husband and I are so glad we went with the Fairmont for our ceremony and reception venue. Ashley Kojima, our wedding coordinator was helpful and professional, working seamlessly with our wedding planner, Haunani of Weddings by Le'Amana. Additionally, the hotel staff were consistently pleasant and responsive. Our wedding ceremony and reception were beyond what we expected or hoped for.....thank you so much to the staff at the Fairmont for a magical wedding experience for ourselves and our wedding guests. We went to a 5 star hotel on another island for our honeymoon - and they did not hold a candle to our experience at the Fairmont.

Thanks so much!
Lourdes & Brian

They were awesome to work with. Especially our wedding coordinator Ashley. They made our dreams come true and our wedding was absolutely beautiful.

Planning our wedding through the orchid was perfect. Jasey and her team handled everything prior and made sure the wedding day went smoothly. They went above and beyond to ensure that the day and night were perfect. This wedding was a dream come true!

Reading all these fantastic reviews wasn't a surprise to me. The Fairmont Orchid did surpass all our expectations for our wedding and it helped greatly that the Orchid was not only our only choice, it was the choice from the very start.

However, I never realized out of 4 or 5 of the reviews here, all mentioned a special someone who also touched our lives in so many ways - Ashley Kojima. Ashley have been our very pillar of support and help throughout the planning and running of the wedding. She is easy to talk to, great to work with and during our special day, she even came in whilst suffering from a bad cold. She took all my random, incoherent and at times, massive dump of ideas and group them into a tangible delight. Ashley put such a smile on our faces, and such love towards her that it was really sad to even let her leave at the end of the night.

And don't forget the banquet staff. Your wedding will never be the same without the staff (and we do mean ALL the staff at the Fairmont Orchid). From the valet guys to the kitchen staff, you just want to embrace all of the at the end of your night and say a massive 'thank you' that can never quite be enough.

Wonderful. Ashley Kojima, the wedding coordinator took care of everything! We didn't have to lift a finger the day of the wedding. Never once did the words 'we may not be able to do that' come out of her mouth. Highly recommended, beautiful location.

Poor.....Planning our wedding through the orchid was horrible. We decided to use the Waikoloa Hilton instead. We could trust that the wedding coordinator could get the job done.
