We had a fantastic experience using Something New for our Day-Of Coordination for our recent wedding at Kualoa Ranch. Charelle was fun to work with, organized, easy to communicate with and a wealth of knowledge for every question I had in the lead-up to the wedding. She met with us the week before the wedding and also ran our rehearsal for our bridal party the day before the wedding, which helped everyone feel confident for the ceremony the next day. The wedding day itself went by flawlessly -- Charelle and her assistant Jillian did a great job managing all the vendors and we were able to stick to the timeline without any delays. Having the two of them there coordinating everything definitely helped me stay calm and enjoy the wedding day instead of worrying about things. We received so many compliments from our guests on what a smooth day it was, resulting in a fantastic wedding everyone enjoyed. Initially I was on the fence about hiring a wedding coordinator but my husband and I think it was one of the best decisions we made! Thank you Something New for doing an incredible job and making sure our wedding day was perfect!

Charelle and her team are just AMAZING! From the beginning - she was right there with us. Providing suggestions, letting us know what we had to do, providing us resources for vendors and organizing our budget and timeline. Our wedding would not have been possible without her with us every step of the way! The day of, her team was our main support: calm, collective and kept us on schedule! Magically they set everything up - it all looked perfect! And we didn't even notice but they even did the breakdown in such a timely manner. We used her many resources even for performing our wedding ceremony. We recommend Charelle and her team 100%! They care and love what they do and want to make every brides day feel soooo special!! Thank you Charelle and team!!

Hired Something New as full time wedding coordinators for my wedding at The Kahala Hotel. They went over and beyond my expectations in giving me the best wedding of a lifetime! They had the best vendors for the job. Very detail oriented, organized, and so personable and easy to talk to. Something New was with me every step of the way to make sure my day was a perfect success. I highly recommend them for any upcoming event :)

Something New planned my wedding on Lani Kai Beach and it was the best day of my life. We did not have a huge amount of time and were working with a small budget. I am also not a wedding person, but they created a beautiful memorable day for my husband and I. I did not have to worry about a thing and that is what a bride needs on her wedding day. Thank you so much for all you did for me and my family.

Hiring Something New to coordinate my wedding was one of the best decisions I ever made. I had then do day of coordination services for me and they went above and beyond to make my wedding wonderful. Charelle is just wonderful. She was always calm and sweet and professional. I was trying to stay within a budget and she was so helpful in coming up with suggestions to help with that while keeping everything tasteful and beautiful. It was so great to having someone making sure everything was all set for the big day and also making sure we had all the details figured out that we hadn't thought of. Ola was there during the day of my wedding and reception and she made sure everything ran smoothly that day. Many of our guests commented that this was the best wedding they had ever been to and I think Something New was vital to that. I am so grateful for their help on this important day of ours!

I cannot say enough about this fabulous company! Being the Type-A personality I am, I had a very difficult time relinquishing the reigns when it came to planning my wedding! Fortunately, I have wise friends who insisted I enlist the help of a day-of coordinator. Best decision I ever made!Jillian is amazing! She checked in with me regularly in the weeks leading up to keep anxiety at bay. When I told her I was concerned about the prospective set-up the sales manager at my venue had recommended, she offered to rework the floor plan herself. She took time to attend extra meetings in the days leading up to ensure that she knew exactly how I wanted everything arranged and how the event should flow. The final set-up was exactly as I had imagined it! If there were any hiccups over the course of the evening, only Jillian and her team knew about them. The only worry that passed through my mind was how I was going to spend a quality moment with every group of guests in attendance! The night flew by... but thanks to Jillian and Something New, I enjoyed every minute of it! If I had to do-over, the only thing I'd do differently is bring this team into the fold earlier! Thank you so much to this incredible team! If you're looking for someone to transform your vision into reality and give you your dream reception, Jillian is your lady!

My experience with Something New was nothing short of awesome. With only 10 weeks to plan a wedding they offered great insight into the planning process as well as accommodated my personal needs, like budget. They were very professional and everything ran smoothly on our big day. I am very happy I decided to have professional help, especially since I wanted limited help from family. Everyone was able to relax and enjoy every moment. I could not have pulled off a 10 week engagement without the help of Something New.

Something New planned our wedding in September 2016 at Kualoa Ranch, Oahu. It was the best money we spent on our entire wedding! Charelle and Jillian have tremendous experience and provided the best guidance. Their focus on details, organization, schedule, and communication made our day perfect, as well as far less stressful. They have the best connections and recommended only the top tier and best value vendors for our wedding. I felt that Charelle and Jillian went above and beyond on each piece of our wedding celebration. They even helped with some events we wanted to plan on the days leading up to the event. Both Charelle and Jillian are lovely, kind, smart, easy-going, and positive people, which really helped during the high stress planning and event. Our guests have said it was one of the best weddings they have ever attended, wedding of the century! This is in large part because of Something New.
