Kaye founded Maile Weddings and Photography in 2003 and brings more than 28 years of experience as a trusted Kauai wedding planner and coordinator. For 18 of those years, she owned and led Maile Weddings and Photography with a blend of creativity, professionalism, and genuine aloha. Her passion for celebrating love and her dynamic energy continue to shape the heart of our Kauai wedding services today.

Kaye began her career as a Kauai wedding photographer, where her artistic eye and ability to capture meaningful moments naturally evolved into full‑service wedding and elopement planning. Over the years, she has coordinated everything from intimate Kauai elopements to large destination weddings of up to 200 guests, guiding couples with calm expertise and heartfelt care.

Her meticulous attention to detail—and her unique ability to notice the small things others might miss—sets her apart in the Hawaii wedding industry. Having lived on Kaua‘i for more than 30 years, Kaye brings deep local knowledge, from hidden scenic locations to trusted island vendors and long‑standing traditions. This combination of experience, intuition, and island insight allows her to create seamless, authentic, and truly unforgettable Kauai wedding experiences.
