Karen Renard

“Karen took such good care of us on our wedding day. Our venue was in a very public place yet she was able to make it appear so intimate. She encouraged phot ideas that were true to us without us even realizing it. Thank you Karen!”

“Wally and I were married on January 10, 2014. Rev. David Tasaka officiated our ceremony and Karen Renard was our photographer. The help they gave us starting with information on the marriage license and where we should take our vows made our day go smoothly. We were both nervous and Karen made us feel at ease so that our photographs were just beautiful. I love looking at our wedding CD.”

“Rev. David was the officiant for our wedding (non-denominational) and he was great. We’re not the creative types, so we used the vows that he had and they were perfect, really focusing on the choice we were making to spend the rest of our lives toegether and the commitment we were making to each other. I highly recommend him!”

“We had Mr. David Tasaka officiate our wedding this past February. We did not have any rehearsal but it was ok as he guided us. He was the highlight of our ceremony I must say. His words were so touching and our wedding vows that he wrote was beautiful. Also his voice was very calming and soothing. Thank you so much Mr. Tasaka! So glad you were our officiant.”

“David is great! He is friendly and easy to work with. a few days before our ceremony he called s to ask if we had any special requests for the ceremony and we did! We had invited a priest to do a blessing and also planned to take a group photo with all the guests after the ceremony. Dave was able to transition into every thing so smoothlyl Thank you, David!”

“Rev David definitely gave us a great everlasting experience. We appreciate everything he did. He was kind and emailed us back so quickly when we had a question. I would like to recommend him to others so that they may feel that happiness we felt. Thank you again!!”

“David and Karen just performed our ceremony yesterday! It was a flawless execution. Both were amazing photographers and captured some beautiful moments before the sunset. Thank you both so much! I have recommended you both to my air bnb host. who is having guests elope here next month.”

"The situation: Six weeks before our big day, our friend told us they were unable to perform our wedding. OMG! Then a fellow wedding officiant recommended Reverend David Tasaka to us. He definitely saved our wedding ceremony!
I hastily emailed David to ask if he was available to officiate our ceremony. Luckily, he was free. His wife Karen was so efficient at scheduling our ceremony, as well as setting up a meeting and also having David at our rehearsal (which we paid additional for). Both of them were so organized and always responded so quickly to my emails. Payment was easy, as the invoice was sent via Square.
We met with David to see if he would be a good fit to officiate our wedding. He was so considerate and sent us a picture via email so we would know who to look out for when we met. His demeanor is so calm, and his positive energy calmed down this stressed-out bride-to-be! He is so easy to talk to, and we had a great conversation sharing how my fiancée (now husband) and I met (via match.com). I shared with him that it was my late mother’s idea to look for a mate online, and David had the great idea that I share that during the ceremony! It was a perfect way to incorporate her memory into our big day. On their website hawaiiancreativeweddings.com… there are packages, details about both David and Kare, and a list of beautiful beach sites that enjoy performing ceremonies at. There honestly isn’t anything that I’d change about my wedding ceremony (even though it involved me “ugly crying” haha), and this is thanks to Rev. David! It flowed so smoothly and turned out even better than expected.”

"Rev. David, thank you for the pictures and thank you for all you did for us. If you need a recommendation please feel free to use our names. Our marriage was very special thanks to you."
