| For all the wonderful couples out there that want to get married: My husband and I could not think of a better person to marry you. Barbara is the one person you want to take care of that special day for you. She is kind and always has wonderful creative ideas about where you could get married. She knows of the special places on Hawaii's big island where you could make your commitment to one another before your families and friends. My husband and I plan to get married over and over to each other and she will be the one we pick to do the ceremonies as we know that she will always find a way to make it special and memorable. If you are planning to get married stop right now your search for the perfect minister, she is the one. She has a wonderful sense of humor and she will make the both of you feel very special. All my best to her and all the couples out there who will get the privilege to get married by such a caring person. With all our love, Rusty and Valerie - November 2000 |
| Dear Barbara, Words cannot express the appreciation that I have in my heart that you were the one to officiate our ceremony. From the first moment that I had contact with you, which was four months before the wedding, I knew I was in good hands. It took me the next four months to find just how good of hands that was. I had never been to Hawaii and I had no idea what to expect. . .But I knew what I wanted. You made it happen! In the fast pace world where we exist, it is rare to find someone who is sincerely listening. But you didn't stop with listening, you acted. I wish that every bride could share the experience that you gave me. No worries ... Just perfection. After experiencing the true Aloha spirit that you passed onto us, I say to you, form the depths of my heart, Aloha. Susan and Baron - November 2006 |

| Dear Barbara, First of all I want to thank you again for the wonderful service. It was absolutely perfect for us, I loved the way you included 'Happily Ever After' in our vows. Everyone who as seen our pictures has commented on how relaxed and happy we look, and how our day looked like so much fun. I always tell them we picked the right people to be part of it, and it wouldn't have been the same without you. Wayne, Lory, and Isabella - April 2007 Photo by Toby Hoogs |

| Dearest Barbara, When I was in search for someone special to marry my fiancée & I, I never thought that we would be able to find someone like you. I was hoping that this day would be memorable & beautiful, as every girl dreams there wedding day will be. When I first saw you, I knew that you were going to make me & my husband fulfill this dream of having a unique & special day. The location I must say was BEAUTIFUL, & the ceremony just perfect to our needs. If I were to do it again, I would definitely choose you, in fact we plan on renewing our vows later on & would be please to have you perform our ceremony. Your personality is warm, friendly & most importantly we could tell that you do this from the heart. When we left, we actually looked at each other & said "what a nice lady". We miss you already & feel that we made a special connection with you on our wedding day. Thank you again. Howard & Mona - November 2007 |
