Andrea was amazing and made our wedding day a stress free affair that was everything we had imagined it to be. Nothing at all was a problem and all questions asked via email/phone were answered promptly leaving no loose ends for me to worry about in the lead up to the wedding. Bianca was lovely and done a great job of our make up. We were so glad we went with the DVD option as the day goes so fast and there is so much that you see from the day when you look back.

Hinoi Henry our photographer was so amazing with a genuine spirit and passion for what he does delivering on our photo expectations above and beyond what we had imagined. He has a great sense of humour always smiling and we loved every minute with him on our shoots. He was patient and didn’t let us down going the extra mile taking amazing photo’s and capturing the day effortlessly. We have so many favourites which is the hardest part of all because we love them all.

I can honestly say that for me it was a stress free and easy journey from start to finish. Having Andrea over in Rarotonga on the ground doing all the sourcing and planning meant that there was very little for me to organize from my end.

We loved our wedding day and were so delighted that our family could put their feet up and relax during the lead up and on the wedding day. This was all made possible because of Andrea and her team and for that we are truly grateful. Looking back, I wouldn't change a single thing. I would definitely recommend Andrea to anyone looking for a fun and unique wedding that both you and your guests will never forget.

We can't thank Andrea enough for making our wedding day a wonderful memory we will cherish forever.

I would highly recommend Andrea and her suppliers if you are planning on having a wedding in Rarotonga.

We started planning a wedding around 1.5 years beforehand and Andrea answered any question (and I mean any!) promptly and helpfully. I would often email Andrea panicked about something and she would respond quickly, calming me down and ensuring me that everything was under control. Planning a wedding overseas can seem a daunting task, but Andrea made it incredibly easy.

The day itself went extremely smoothly and I did not have to worry about a single detail - Andrea took care of it all. Even when the chilly bins we had ordered ourselves didn't turn up - she dealt with it!

The food and catering was fantastic, the celebrant lovely and the makeup artist / hairdresser made me look stunning. The photographer, Hinoi, took amazing photos and was an absolute professional. She recommended places for us and our family to stay (all of which were amazing themselves) and gave us venue options. We decided on having the ceremony and reception at a private house and Andrea organised everything for us.

I cannot say enough about how wonderful she is - you must use Wedded Bliss to organise your wedding!!

Well what can we say, perfect day, perfect location, and NO stress. 
 
Thank you Andrea and your team, for your amazing efforts in creating the most perfect wedding day for us. We could not, and would not change a thing about our wedding.  Never in our wildest dreams could we have planned a more amazing day. You managed to bring to life what was in our heads and we will be forever grateful.
 
From day one when we first contacted you, we were very impressed with your professional friendly manner; you reassured us and made everything seem so easy. You were supportive, patient and an absolute pleasure to deal with. 
 
We will never be able to thank you enough for making our dream come true.

We just want to say a big THANK YOU to Andrea for organising us the most amazing and stress-free wedding in paradise.

We started planning our Rarotongan wedding about 12months out from the big day. Neither of us had been to Rarotonga before so were a little apprehensive about planning our wedding abroad in a place we had never been to. But we needn’t have worried as Andrea had everything under control.

From her initial email I knew that Andrea was professional and would organise us the relaxed, memorable and affordable occasion that we were after for our wedding day. Andreas email responses to my endless questions were prompt and informative. She not only helped plan the wedding day but helped us with accommodation and activities for our whole wedding group.

Andrea organized great people to work with on the wedding day:

• JK the celebrant was a star, funny and helped us feel relaxed during the ceremony.
  
• Hinoi the photographer was amazing. He also made us feel relaxed and took great photos that we will treasure forever.
  
• Bianca and her helpers were friendly and professional giving us great nails, hair and make-up that still looked great at the end of the night.
  
• Meegan at the Pawpaw Patch did an awesome job of decorating the place and catering for such a large group. The food was outstanding, the best meal of our stay in Rarotonga! The service was excellent and everyone loved the cocktails!
  
• The flowers were gorgeous, the cake was yum, and all the guests loved the string band!

Our wedding was an unforgettable day that was enjoyed by family and friends and of course us! I wouldn’t change anything about our wedding day and would recommend Andrea at Wedded Bliss to anyone.

Luv Kimberly and Gavin

Andrea of Wedded Bliss was an absolute pleasure to work with, and Rarotonga a magical place to be wed.

A completely stress-free experience - Andrea waved her magic wand and arranged not only flowers which were out of season, but the perfect celebrant, creative hair stylist and talented photographer.

She somehow managed to call the weather gods as well as we had a warm, sunny wedding day on Muri beach. If I could do it all over again, I would not change a thing.

Thanks Andrea / Wedded Bliss!!

In our opinion Rarotonga is one of the best places in the world you can get married. You arrive on the island and it is instant romance, relaxation and beautiful scenery that surrounds you.
 
Andrew and I only decided that were going to get engaged and married within four months of the date we had in mind. We already had a round the world trip organised and thought it would be a fantastic way to end it, as well as a wonderful beginning to our marriage. Andrea and the Wedded Bliss team turned our thoughts into reality and proceeded to exceed our expectations in a short time period.

The ease of which the Wedding Day came together for us was amazing, we were totally relaxed knowing that Andrea had everything organised perfectly and under control. On your special day being stress-free is a feeling that money cannot buy, Bianca coming to you room to do your hair and makeup also helped and she did an amazing job.

Andreas’ personal touch and caring about what it is you want on your wedding day, also helps make it truly special. Frangipanis only rarely flower into late May but I wanted some, if only a few in my bouquet, because of this Andrea and the Florist managed to find a flowering tree. I not only had some flowers for all of the girls hair, I had an almost full bouquet of Frangipanis, I personally never saw a single flowering Frangipani the whole time I was on the island!

Andrea only has the best people helping her and her local knowledge and suggestions make your wedding day absolutely perfect!

Thank you Andrea for helping us have the best start to our married lives together, we enjoyed every moment of our wedding day (except the fact the boys were 20 minutes late ☺) and will look back with wonderful memories of our special day.

Andrew and Kowhai

Thank you so much for helping us organise our Wedding Day. Rarotonga is the most amazing place to get married im so pleased we chose it for our wedding. You can’t help but relax and go with the flow.
 
We had the most wonderful day and everyone involved made it so easy for us. We didn’t have to lift a finger or use our brains once, which if we had to I know it wouldn’t have run as smoothly as is did. Even when things go hiccupped you found solutions and reorganised really quickly and often without us knowing. 
 
John Kenning was a fantastic celebrant. I highly recommend him. He made the day and the awkward parts really easy for us.
 
Hinoi is such a great photographer and fun guy. His laid back attitude was really helpful and made us feel really comfortable getting our photos done. The wedding party and the guests all commented on how great he was. I keep getting asked who our photographer was!
 
Bianca did a fantastic job as my stylist. I loved the Antipodes products she used, I never got any break outs. She has a lovely nature that helped me relax. She also worked reasonably quickly so I didn’t feel under pressure or anything and had time to stop for a drink etc.
 
The food after the ceremony was really nice, I didn’t have time to try it all but all the guests were really pleased and impressed. 
 
Apartments Kakera was wonderful. Such a nice place to stay, I only wished I had more time to enjoy it while we were there. Melinda and Andrew are lovely people also. Melinda was so helpful on the wedding day also, without even asking her to do anything. She was good comfort to my mum who was super nervous about ironing my wedding dress.
 
This was the best holiday of our lives and we will never forget it. Rarotonga is a postcard place - you had to double check you were standing on the beach, not looking at a photo.
 
You were amazing Andrea, thank you very much.

 
Lots of warm wishes 

Lydia and Nigel

Daniel and I began planning our wedding in New Zealand and soon realised how stressful and expensive it could be. A friend suggested getting married overseas and we jumped at the idea.

Being able to email Andrea about all the small things that popped into my head and she always replied promptly with heaps of ideas and options. Neither Daniel or I had ever been to Rarotonga before but once we arrived, we were blown away by how beautiful it is, and how friendly the people are.

We were there for a few days before the wedding and were well and truly relaxed on our wedding day. Andrea’s organisational skills were fantastic and we got an individual wedding that represented us.

Inano was fantastic, she was like our fairy godmother, and everything was done without us having to worry. I really appreciated the local knowledge she shared with us, which not only made the wedding fantastic but made the whole trip great.

Bianca did a fantastic job of hair and makeup and all the girls had tears in their eyes when she was done. Hinoi (the photographer) had us all laughing and relaxed from the start.

Andrea employs the best people in the business and she and Inano did an amazing job of giving us an individual wedding that was perfect for us. Daniel and I wouldn’t change a thing, it was a perfect wedding and a perfect day!

Andrea thank you and your team so much for the most wonderful stressful day. We both wish we could do it all again tomorrow.

Kelly and Daniel

We wanted a simple, stress free wedding with the romantic touch. With the help and guidance of Andrea and her team that is exactly what we got.

It was just the 2 of us with no guests and we did not put a lot of thought into the finer details of the day. From day one, Andrea gave us useful tips such as time of the ceremony, flowers for the bouquet and other little touches that we hadn't even thought of. She always responded to my emails promptly if I had any questions.

We met with Andrea on our first day in the Cook Islands to confirm the arrangements for the big day and add some final touches. She has a warm and friendly personality and makes you feel at ease (which is what you need on the big day).

Andrea arranged with us to meet with our celebrant John Kenning (JK). When JK presented us with the vows, they were perfect, modern and exactly what we wanted to say.

Bianca did a fantastic job with my hair and makeup, it was exactly what I wanted. I'm always a little bit apprehensive of having someone else do my make up, but she did a fantastic job.

I was quite nervous on the morning, but Andrea was great at keeping me calm. Again, we couldn't have wished for a better photographer than Hinoi. Neither of us are great fans of having our photo taken, but he made us feel relaxed and we had great fun. The photo album is amazing, we are still trying decide on photos to frame, but there are so many good ones to choose from.

After the ceremony we went back to our villa (Sea Change) and had a wonderful Vegetarian BBQ.

We can't thank Andrea, JK, Bianca and Hinoi enough for make our wedding day absolutely perfect. Every detail was taken care of and the experience is something that we will always treasure. We have no hesitation in recommending Wedded Bliss for your big day.

Andrea at Wedded Bliss and her crew made our day PERFECT.

The hair and makeup by Bianca was awesome, so natural, especially for someone who doesn’t wear makeup on a daily basis. My hair was just beautiful. The flowers not only looked spectacular they also smelt amazing. The pre and post munchie platters Andrea organised were sooo tasty, we left nothing, and for the BBQ for 4 we all stuffed ourselves silly, the food was just to die for. Our solo serenade made it easy to walk down the isle, it was almost like I wasn’t alone. He soothed the nerves with his beautiful voice and island music.

John Kenning our celebrant was great, down to earth, good sense of humour which definitely helped break up the nerves. Pete and Hinoi the videographer and photographer were just ace, we hardly knew they were there. We got over 600 shots on disc in 3 different locations, and they were postcard perfect. What is more we received our photo's before we left the island. The DVD is fantastic, I would describe it but wouldn’t want to ruin it for those of you who decide to get the DVD option, Definitely worth it!!!!

Our location was ideal, we were staying at Sea Change Villas and all we had to do was walk out the front door and on to the beach. Thanks to Deb, Charlie and Staff for helping make our day soo perfect.

And Last but definitely not least, all this would not have been possible without Andrea who co-ordinated it all. Andrea, THANK YOU sooo very much for our perfect day, perfect wedding, perfect flowers, perfect hair and makeup, perfect food, perfect celebrant, perfect photos and DVD, perfect memories. All of it was made possible you. All we had to do was get dressed and show up. Which is easy when you are so in love.

Thanks Again Andrea

Thank you Andrea for making our wedding day pure bliss! There is literally nothing better than going to a tropical island to celebrate your life, love and future together by having a holiday of a lifetime with your closest family and friends.
 
I can’t imagine what amount of time it would have taken me to organise our wedding, while Andrea makes organising a wedding a walk on the beach and what else should it be. There is literally stuff all for you to do other than put on your dress and turn up, of course slightly late…
 
Our wedding was exactly what we wanted it to be, absolutely beautiful, relaxed and a wonderful day spent amongst a week with our family and friends of which we will remember for the rest of our lives.
 
You just don’t stuff around with that. Andrea will solve any little problem that comes along, even finding that wedding song at midnight the night before the wedding when the CD’s sitting at home on the kitchen bench and the IPOD didn’t load!
 
While a wedding might be about the big day, it is actually an accumulation of everything that goes into creating it. Having someone that does it all the time, has the inside knowledge and contacts makes your life a breeze.
 
Andrea we really can’t thank you enough. It was just so easy and so perfect.
