"Rachel and Paul were exceptional from start to finish! Their professionalism and expertise were evident throughout the entire process. We were amazed at how effortlessly they captured such stunning moments while remaining in the background, never disrupting the natural flow of the day. Their calming and supportive presence was exactly what we needed amidst the wedding day chaos. Before the event, they took the time to clearly outline our expectations and the process, which made everything so much smoother on the big day. The videos they produced were vibrant and lively, and our family loved sharing the reels and shorts on social media. We would highly recommend Rachel and Paul to any bride and groom planning their wedding in Hawaii!"

"Amazing videography team with attention to detail!
My husband and I initially underestimated the importance of hiring a videographer. Many wedding videos we had seen seemed to miss the intimacy of the day, often feeling overly edited and contrived. However, our decision to hire Koa Films at the last minute truly transformed our wedding experience. They were incredibly receptive to our ideas, patiently worked through our customization requests, and collaborated seamlessly with our photographers, E&E Photography.
Throughout the day, Koa Films impressed us with their creativity, suggesting unique ways to capture the changing skies and ensuring that every scene highlighted our beauty and the essence of the moment. They exceeded our expectations and made our day feel even more special. We are deeply grateful to the entire team at Koa Films for their dedication and talent. We are absolutely delighted with our decision to include Koa Films in our wedding day, and we are confident that anyone who chooses to work with them will be incredibly satisfied with their decision."
