Simply Elegant Hawaii

Kristin was so pleasant to work with! I think we originally had our photobooth booked for November 2020, then was moved to May because of covid. But then, my fiancé (husband now) and I decided to just do the ceremony for now and have the reception later. So we ended up having our reception on June 19th, 2021. Kristin was very accommodating and flexible. In the very beginning, we wanted to do 8 hours of photobooth. However, our guest count reduced significantly, so we ended up just doing 2 hours. The photobooth included different kinds of props, unlimited printing, your own choice of backdrop (you can see the options on their website) and I made our own layout for the photos. They turned out way better than I expected!Long story short, we had so many things to change but Kristin was very accommodating!!! I would definitely recommend her!

Loved working with Kristin and Violet. They did such an amazing job with my wedding. They listened to my ideas and also gave great advice and input into what I imagined my florals and decor to be. I definitely recommend them! What's amazing is that I had asked if they knew anyone who could make a custom hexagon arch as well as table Arbors. And they definitely delivered!

It was such a pleasure to work with this company for my wedding reception! They did my photobooth, and all my floral & linens. Linens and Florals - I told them my color schemes, what types of flowers I wanted, and they made my vision a reality! Very easy to work with, communication was excellent!Photobooth - They gave me a custom layout & even incorporated a graphic my friend made for me! I loved it!!!!I was so happy with how everything turned out - this company really made every effort to make each detail of my wedding perfection. Customer service was great, creative professionalism on point :)

I am so grateful for the mother-daughter duo behind Simply Elegant Hawaii. We worked together to make my vision for my wedding come to life. I had three months to plan and the process was easy, efficient and stress-free. We met about 8 weeks before the event to review my vision and what services I needed for my wedding. I was in need of all florals, chargers and tables decorating. I was able to provide inspiration photos for my gold/green with white accents tropical wedding which took place at Turtle Bay's Kuilima Point 6/25/17. I purchased all of the decorations myself and only needed a few items that Kristin and Violet were able to procure. They were timely in providing me with an itemized quote for the flowers, chargers, vases, chiffon sashes, and labor expenses. Over the next few weeks, I was able to deliver the decorations I purchased and 1-2 weeks prior to the event Violet and I met to review flower options, as there were a few weather related supply hiccups. We were able to easily work together to smooth all worries away. The day of the event, Kristin and Violet arrived and went to work. The bouquets and hairpiece were flawless! Hand held artwork! They also delivered Maile leis for the fathers and groomsmen and leis for the mothers. The ceremony and reception site were perfect. Exactly what I had envisioned down to the last detail. My "Simply Elegant" tropical Hawaii wedding was stunning. The archway and aisle were decorated beautifully and the centerpieces and welcome tables lovely. Our bride and groom chairs were darling. I heard nothing but complements on their design work and style.My extreme gratitude to the ladies of Simply Elegant Hawaii. Working with them was exactly as you would expect from a hardworking, dedicated, and very talented team. I have no reservations in recommending them highly for your next event!

I am so grateful to have come across and work with Kristin. I'm from California and all of the planning was basically through email. She listened to everything I wanted and requested. At first she informed that peonies weren't available because of the season but low and behold she came through and the day of the wedding I was surprised with peonies in my bouquet. I was so happy and loved it! She was very friendly and patient. She made everything less stressful for me. Originally I hired her to decorate my reception only and 2 weeks before the wedding the person who was suppose to decorate the ceremony backed out and Kristin came to the rescue with that short amount of notice. She is super awesome!! Her work is exceptional and everything turned out exactly how I pictured it would be. My wedding was beautiful and it was all because of her work. She had no problem incorporating some materials and items I wanted to provide and use. She also has photo booth services which we also took advantage of which made everything so convenient. You get to pick ur backdrop and design and color of the printouts. I would highly recommend simply elegant for any of your events. You will not be disappointed.

We utilized Simply Elegant's floral, decor, and photo booth services for our August wedding at Paliku Gardens at Kualoa Ranch and were very pleased with both the process and the end result. As I currently live on the mainland, all of our wedding planning (other than Venue and food), including all interactions with Simply Elegant, was done remotely. From the first outreach, Kristin was responsive, professional, and extremely easy to work with. I had been struggling to find a vendor who could execute our florals/decor in the simple, minimalist way I was envisioning as I didn't want fussy centerpieces detracting from the natural outdoor beauty of Kualoa. Unlike other vendors who were more interested in pushing larger/more expensive products, Kristin truly understood that simplicity was a priority for me and embraced supporting my vision. I sent her a handful of ideas from Pinterest that I had been gathering, and she was able to help me brainstorm and translate my scattered ideas into specificitems. As a result of Kristin's consultations, we landed on centerpieces consisting of a pineapple on a monstera leaf accompanied by yellow/orange roses and votive candles, chuppah decorations consisting of roses and ruscus, and cocktail table decorations consisting of a floating rose in a stemless wineglass. We were able to repurpose the pineapples as both aisle decorations and table centerpieces, and the chuppah flowers as decorations for our sweetheart and cake tables. Kristin has a strong graphics background and designed her table numbers and photobooth print layout to coordinate with our other materials that had already been printed (menu, favor thank you notes, seating cards, etc.). I gave her full creative control of her pieces and only sent her pictures of our existing materials as an FYI so she could see the full vision of what else we had going on re: decor - I completely did not expect that she would design her pieces to MATCH PERFECTLY!!! We heard lots of positive feedback about the photo booth, which thankfully is not an actual enclosed "booth" but rather, an open air space in front of a backdrop that is much more conducive to larger groups. Guests immediately received two prints of their photos, and photos were also promptly made available online and accessible to all our guests via Facebook. Simply Elegant has an extremely easy to use billing system - everything is itemized clearly in an online quote,and they accept credit card (!), which is a huge bonus, particularly when planning a wedding remotely. We went back and forth a few times with some changes I made to the florals and to the timing of the photobooth, and Kristin was very quick and accommodating in updating the digital quote accordingly. Simply Elegant's pricing was reasonable, fair, and most importantly, transparent, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Simply Elegant - they were undoubtedly one of the easier vendors to work with (and as anyone planning a wedding/event knows, there are many!) and the quality, value and flexibility they provide is truly unmatched. Thanks again for helping make our wedding day special!

I chose Simply Elegant Hawaii as my florist for my destination wedding in Laie. Kristin was the MOST helpful vendor, responding quickly to all phone calls, emails and text messages. It was such a pleasure working worth her throughout the whole process. She was so receptive to any and all ideas I had as well and kept within our budget. I can not thank Kristin and her team enough for making my floral dreams come true for our big day!

I had such a pleasant experience working with Simply Elegant Hawaii for my floral arrangements and bouquet. Kristin was so easy to talk to, super sweet and patient. She was very flexible with the constant changes that I had. She made sure that we stayed in our budget and helped give her professional and honest advise regarding different floral arrangements. She's very prompt with communication and we absolutely loved our arrangements made by them. I definitely would recommend this company for the reasonable prices, and the support and assistance along the way :) Thank you again for making it so easy for us!!

I would recommend Simply Elegant Hawaii to anyone looking for the perfect wedding floral arrangements! They were able to do everything I requested and completely went above my expectations by creating the perfect arrangements for our boho inspired beach wedding. From the very beginning when I first reached out about wedding floral, they were quick to respond, very attentive, offered suggestions and more importantly, they were extremely friendly and thoughtful with each response. Out of all the vendors I had the pleasure working with for my wedding, Simply Elegant Hawaii was by far my favorite! If you're looking for an enjoyable and stress free experience, then I highly recommend giving them a try!

A very late review, but looking back at my event, I could not help but be reminded by how amazing my vendors were! Simply Elegant was so easy to work with & executed all that I had requested/envisioned. Communication was key & so prompt! I really had nothing to complain about. I will definitely work with them for future events!
