Aloha
from All Ways Maui'd Weddings, Ceremonies & Photography . . .

Mahalo
nui loa - thank you very much - for your interest in the ceremonies
and related services that we offer here in beautiful, romantic Maui. Beginning
when you first contact us, until you say
"I Do,"
it
would be our distinct good pleasure to be of assistance to you in every
way possible.
.
Below you
will find some general information about us and our services, along with
links to selected pages at our website which, we believe, should help a
lot with your decision making process.
.
**
First off, please allow me a moment to introduce ourselves to you ~ I am
Rev.
Kolleen O'Flaherty Wheeler (or
simply Kolleen),
the Officiant/Coordinator
for All Ways Maui'd
Weddings & Ceremonies.
My husband
of 28-years, Bruce
Wheeler, is the principal photographer for Seventh
Wave PhotoGraphics, our in-house photography service. We're a "Happily
Maui'd" couple who have been blessed
to call Maui
home
since early in 1983. We specialize in "smaller,"
more intimate weddings, vow renewals, civil unions and assorted other
blessings in versions that include Non-denominational Christian,
Spiritual
or Simply Romantic themes. Bruce is also our webmaster, so you can find
many examples of his award-winning photography throughout our rather unique
maui-angels.com
site.
.
**
If you've not already visited it, here's a link to our site's index (Table
of Contents) page which should help considerably with your navigation
around our site. There you'll find links to pages containing
a wealth of
information
about getting married in Hawai'i, our detailed
Ceremony
Packages and a list of Ceremony-Enhancing
Add-On (à la carte) Selections.
.
**
In addition to performing your ceremony, we will gladly assist with all
essential coordination matters including (but not limited to); the setting
of your licensing
appointment (for weddings
and
civil
unions),
help
in selecting the most appropriate
public
location for your ceremony, obtaining State land
use permits (as required), the booking of a private
ceremony location (if desired), plus making
all
arrangements for
optional
videography/web casting, music/musicians,
deluxe florals, sparkling cider toasts with personalized toasting glasses,
dove and/or butterfly releases, etc.
.
**
You will no doubt find answers to many of your "Getting
Maui'd" questions at our Frequently
Asked Questions page. More questions? Please contact
us . . .
** When the time comes to begin making formal arrangements for your ceremony, please follow these steps:
1. Once you've chosen your
preferred
ceremony date, time and location, please call us at 808-244-1167 (or
email
us) so that we can confirm the availability of that date and time
in our schedule. (If need be,
we will
be happy to put a 48-hour hold on an available date/time/location pending
a final decision by you.)
.
2. Then, complete our Booking
Application/Agreement Form and send it on to us via email, postal mail
(time allowing), scan (.pdf)
or fax to 808-242-8019. Note: If you choose to email
your application to
us,
please
fax, scan or mail the signature page/s as we are in
need of your actual signatures, too At this point - if it hasn't been arranged
for already - we'll set your appointment with a licensing agent.
.
3. A 50% (minimum)
down payment - in U.S. funds - is required to guarantee your booking,
to be arranged for at the time you submit your application/agreement. Note:
Any remaining balance due must
be paid not
later than ten (10) days prior to your ceremony's date. (Down
payment
amounts may be found on our packages
page.) Also, It's OK to fax your credit card info, but it's up to
you whether you
choose to
email it, or not. We would much prefer that you call
us with your bank card information, or fax it to 808-242-8019
- along with your signed application - whatever works the best for
you.
.
4. Upon our receipt of your completed
application (and down payment) we will issue you a confirming statement
via return email, and, time allowing, we will also send you a nice variety
of sample ceremony
scripts
and
vows readings for you to pick and choose from. (You're
very welcome to include readings of your own, to share with each other
during your ceremony.)
.
We sincerely
hope the above information has been useful, and that it's answered many
of your questions. However, please don't hesitate to email (or call
us) with any other questions and/or concerns that
you may have.
We look forward to hearing back from you, and to being of service to you
on our truly wonderful Island, "...always with Aloha!"
Aloha ke Akua, Kolleen
