Rev. Mike Hough
Mike is co-owner of Kauai Island Weddings and the Kauai Country Inn, and wears many hats within the company. Mike is the main Wedding Coordinator and the person you're most likely to be talking to on the phone. He is also one of our busiest Wedding Ministers and Professional Photographers.
Mike's background is in photography and advertising and he holds a full Technology degree from Birmingham University, England. He has worked in virtually every area of those industries both in Europe and America, and spent the best part of the 80's and 90's running his own advertising agency, which focused on the movie industry in Hollywood, California; working on the launch of major motion pictures and new television series, as well as with some of the biggest international companies in Europe.
He moved to Kauai with his wife Martina, and son Johannes, to enjoy the Hawaiian culture and weather which they had fallen in love with over many visits to the Islands. Besides being a seasoned photographer and videographer, he is also widely experienced in both computers and software application and has, with Martina, produced 25 software titles whilst in the Islands. Their many Awards span those different industries over the last 40 years, but he has found his true calling in the Wedding Industry. When not shooting weddings, or editing wedding photos, he's happy marrying people.

Martina Hough
Martina is co-owner of Kauai Island Weddings and Kauai Country Inn, and wears as many hats as Mike. She is the web master responsible for all the imagery, functionality and design of our websites, as well as being the financial officer for the company. Running a parallel course with Mike in the 80's and 90's she is a seasoned professional photographer & videographer, with a perfect eye for layout and color.
Martina also runs the Kauai Country Inn almost single handedly, but still finds time to shoot wedding videos and photos at many of the weddings we are fortunate to perform. Having graduated from Bonn University in Germany before moving to America, she is bilingual in German and English, and is the heart and soul of the business. |

Johannes Gorissen
Johannes is one of our most experienced photographers.
Jo is warm and considerate, coaxing the best emotions out of the sometimes nervous Bride and Groom, giving exceptional photographic results. Couples and their families have often difficulty expressing their feelings, because words just don't exist they say, to convey how beautiful the images are.
Jo is also an experienced landscape & portrait photographer, as well as a seasoned computer operator who is just as comfortable with the camera as with color management.

Rev. Todd Fuerte
As one of the few native born Hawaiian Ministers in Kauai, Reverend Todd brings a unique and genuine island flavor to our weddings. Born on Oahu, which is referred to in Hawaii as the "gathering place", he has lived in Kauai most of his life. He is an accomplished photographer with many years of experience in both Wedding and Sports photography. He is relaxed and confident, both in his performance of ceremonies and his photography.
Our couples have nothing but good things to say about him, and he's a joy to work with.

Keola
Our favorite Hawaiian Musician was born and raised in Hawaii, played with the world famous singer/song writer IZ, and is a well known and beloved on the island. He will serenade you with "Over the Rainbow" while you "walk down the isle", beautiful local Hawaiian songs during the ceremony, and will finish the wedding ceremony with the traditional Hawaiian Wedding song. It's a once in a lifetime experience, enjoy!
The musician can be added to all packages - $200
