About Naupaka Events & Weddings
Naupaka Events & Weddings
Born and raised on the island of Oahu, Dayna developed interest in special events through her extensive work experiences and college eduction. It was the moment she married her husband, a Paniolo (cowboy) from Hawai’i Island, that she found her passion to help other couples with their own wedding. Their wedding theme was “Mauka to Makai” meaning “from the mountain side to the ocean side” because of where they grew up - similar to how the Naupaka is grown on the mountain side and by the ocean side.
Naupaka Events & Weddings understands the time and effort involved when planning a special event. It is important you are confident that a trusted company will be there to support you and see your special event all the way through from start to finish. Consider using Naupaka Events & Weddings, where every detail counts.

Naupaka is the BEST!
Choosing to work with Dayna was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding! We decided to work with Dayna through her "Wedding Coordination" package, which included both day-of coordination and coordination in advance of our event. Dayna was instrumental in creating our timeline, seating chart, and coordinating the different personalized touches we had throughout our event. There are three primary things that stand out about Dayna and the entire Naupaka team: 1. Everyone loves Dayna! Whenever I told another vendor we were working with Naupaka, they immediately smiled and said we were in good hands. It gave me great peace of mind to know that Dayna has positive relationships with all the vendors we were working with, and I knew that the setup and final preparations with our vendors would be seamless. And they were seamless! She made things easy, and has a wealth of knowledge. Any question we had or problem we encountered, Dayna had already experienced given she works so closely with many vendors on the Big Island. 2. Dayna has a calm but confident personality. Every single time we spoke with Dayna, I left the conversation feeling a sense of calm. She consistently gave us expert advice and I was happy with all the decisions we made together. While Dayna is calm, she has meticulous attention to detail, executed our timeline to a T, and made sure every detail was perfect. 3. She goes above and beyond. Dayna is an excellent and timely communicator, and was always willing to jump on a call or review a contract. Working with her is so straightforward and easy - she is exceptionally trustworthy, and instilled so much confidence in us and our families. Finally, Dayna is simply a wonderful person. She is kind, fun, and funny, and she made us feel so confident and happy on our wedding day. I would recommend working with Dayna and the entire Naupaka team to anyone and everyone!
