Aloha and welina mai nei. Welcome to my island home. I’m Lisa Insalata and it would be a great pleasure to help you plan the most momentous celebration of your life.

 

Hospitality is a cherished aspect of Hawaiian culture as well as in my own family’s traditions. Raised in a large Italian family of feastmakers, lavish celebrations and sumptuous cuisine were commonplace, and the “aloha spirit” our way of life.

While pursuing my culinary interests, I cultivated my talents as an event planner for a highly acclaimed San Francisco Bay Area restaurant and catering company. This gave me the opportunity to hone my skills, everything from floral design, planning a sublime menu, selecting captivating music, and the subtle art of gracious hosting.

Kauai has captured my heart as it will yours. Living and working here is a lifelong dream fulfilled, and I’ve coordinated weddings since 2002. In addition, I have immersed myself in the culture of Hawaii and maintain strong connections with the hula and musical community. I would love to share my experience and knowledge with you and plan your wedding or vow renewal on this island of unsurpassed beauty. From classical Hawaiian entertainment to the excitement of Tahitian drumming and fire knife dancing or the ceremonial call of the conch shell, there are many possibilities to consider.

I love everything about weddings: the never-ending details, the gathering of all those you hold dear, the light in my clients’ faces when they see their vision come to life. The smiles, laughter, and tears of joy. I warmly invite you to consider me to be your personal advocate in orchestrating the next chapter of your own unique love story, your Kauai wedding.
