An Interview with Raimey
When I think of Raimey of Raimey Anne Weddings, I think about what a hard worker she is. She truly cares about her weddings and will do everything she can to make sure they are perfect. I remember a wedding I shot with her recently where at the last minute she was given wooden engraved place cards for the guests. Although she had a ton of things to do already (wedding days are crazy!), she gracefully took them and got them all out for the guests - and with a smile! While I don’t recommend springing last minute details on your coordinator, if you have Raimey, you know you’ll have someone who has your back.

A tip for a couple planning a Kauai Wedding:
Hire a coordinator to help! The internet and social media can help find things but having a person to rely on and help during the big day is priceless.
Kendal and Ben had a gorgeous wedding in Poipu, Kauai. Part of what made it so wonderful were all their carefully curated details. Raimey made sure they were all in their spots. She also coordinated between two venues - the wedding at The National Tropical Botanical Gardens and the reception at a private residence.
