After contacting numerous sound companies around Oahu, David with Akahi had the best pricing and options. He was very responsive and always responded to inquiries in a timely manner. Due to unforeseen circumstances, my original emcee had to cancel a few days prior to the event. I contacted David to ask about hiring an emcee and he offered to provide the emcee services at NO ADDITIONAL cost (Awesome)! On the day of the event, David arrived early with ample time to set up. I experienced technical difficulties when trying to set up my slide show, and David went out of his way to help me get the stressful situation resolved even though it was not his responsibility. The sound equipment he used was perfect for the event and I even received compliments from the bands that David did an excellent job providing sound for them. If you are looking to book a sound man for your next event, consider contacting David at Akahi Productions. You will not be disappointed in his service! Mahalo plenty to David and Akahi Productions! I will definitely be using them again for all my future events.

Up to this day, all of our wedding guests who came from all over the world to O'ahu for our wedding tells us that our wedding/reception was the most magical and best wedding experience that they've ever attended! Thanks to Telepharaoh Brandon!! He really made our wedding day so much fun for us and to everybody. Telepharaoh Brandon is very professional, funny, vibrant and knows how to read a crowd! We loved Telepharaoh Brandon so much! We also learned that he's hosted/MC-ed in several celebrities events such as Aerosmith, John Myer, etc. No wonder why, he's the BEST of the BEST! He's worth it and really makes your event so memorable!! I also forgot to mention. He also choreographed my now-husband and I's First Dance, which was amazing! Thanks to Showtime DJ & Entertainment (Telepharaoh Brandon). Highly recommend!!

This review is a long time coming since I got married on June 30th. But, better late than never!…read moreSo I first heard of Showtime DJs through the florist we were looking to hire. Even though we didn't book that florist, he did lead us to Showtime DJs and for that we are very grateful. The Meeting: When we first met Teley, my husband and I knew instantly that he would be an awesome entertainer and DJ. His lively personality matched well with what we wanted for our wedding. He showed us a very impressive video about his company. I wanted to book him right then and there during our meeting, but my husband told me to wait and check out other DJs first. So I waited like a day...and then I booked him!!! It costs a little extra to have Teley as your DJ, but I thought that it was well worth it. Everything went smoothly during the planning phase. A few months before the wedding, Teley told us that he was double-booked for our wedding date for another wedding. His assistant (who he fired right after this incident) had made a very big mistake. Of course I was disappointed, so we met him right away to clear things up. He was VERY apologetic about the mishap and made sure we were compensated. He threw in some freebies for us and also refunded the extra money we paid for having him as our DJ. Phil ended up being our DJ instead and we absolutely LOVED him. He was AWESOME!! As an "anal" bride, I already wrote my timeline and song choices the first month I was engaged. So all I did was give Phil our papers and he was good to go. The Wedding Day: Everything went so smoothly with Phil as our DJ. He got our guests fully involved in dancing at the end of the wedding...which was amazing to see. Our elderly aunts and uncles were dancing the night away! Phil even did a flip on the dance floor which amazed all of our friends! Everyone was commenting on how awesome our DJ was! The best part of the night was the song he chose to play at the end of our wedding. I had a bunch of slow songs listed, but he chose the wedding song of my brother and sister-in-law who were my MC's. I will always remember this moment because I got to see the joy that was brought to my family. Overall, Phil was amazing and we could not have asked for a more perfect DJ. He livened the entire wedding night up and we were not disappointed. Thank you Teley Brandon and Phil for providing wonderful memories, and a great wedding experience for us, our families, and our friends! We'll definitely want to book you again in the future for any other parties or anniversary parties!! ;) (~Kim & Herb)

We worked with DJ Roman Candles for our wedding this past Saturday. As a couple who is not big into…read moredancing, has always been somewhat hesitant to hire a DJ after being at events with some less than stellar examples, and who originally forwent a professional DJ in our budget planning, DJ Roman Candles was a good fit for us. Here's why: 1. He's easy going and just very relaxed, yet professional, so for us DJ novices he was easy to work with, easy to communicate with, and not intimidating at all. This easy going nature also matched our overall event vibe. 2. Communicative. He was quick to respond to any inquiries and questions, was consistent in his communication, and used tools (originally ViboDJ) that let us get involved and hands on in the process without it being overwhelming. 3. Personalized. It felt like he was able to take the information we gave him and really craft an experience unique to us. For parts of our reception that we didn't have a plan for (e.g. we skipped first dance and parent-child dances) he was able to offer viable and fun recommendations like opening with an all couples slow dance in lieu of a first dance. He also worked with our coordinator to make sure that the music for my surprise hula was queued up without the groom having any idea. 4. Adaptable and knowledgeable. In addition to letting us craft some sample playlists to get to know our vibe and taste, he let us designate some absolute "no play" songs and genres and asked us questions to get to know the taste of our crowd. When told we don't have a very dance heavy crowd he said "challenge accepted" and was, in fact, able to get many of our guests out on the dance floor. Once they were out, many were dancing the whole night which I did not expect. He adapted and responded to our crowd effectively in a way that they all (even the ones not dancing) enjoyed the music. I got many comments from guests across multiple generations that the music choice was excellent, they enjoyed the variety, and that he did a great job not overwhelming the space with too much noise. TLDR: DJ Roman Candles is flexible, professional, and really an expert at what he does. You can't go wrong hiring him for your event, and that's coming from a non-party couple.

My wife and so could not be happier hiring DJ Roman Candles! The general consensus of our guests…read moreafter our wedding was ... "This is prob the most fun I have ever had at a wedding!" Our wedding had people laughing, dancing, crying and everything ran so smooth really with him taking on MC duties as well. DJ Roman had amazing callouts for my wife my mom, helped facilitate and focus our guests attention during our gender reveal during the wedding. He also played all of the music and understood the dynamic of our group and the music our guests really vibed with. He had everyone from the elder generation to the children up dancing and having a great time. If you want a great DJ, MC with a great voice, and most of all fun, hire DJ Roman Candles. He is definitely a step above the others.

David has a nice inviting voice that was able to get the entire room involved in whatever we were doing. The music selection (if there is a way to copy it and send it to us please do) was fantastic, tasteful and full of life. Lupe took care of every detail that we had no idea that we were missing. On top of that, they were a true inspiration to having a long happy marriage. Occasionally, we try to find them when they are running trivia. They have a great team and it's impossible to be in bad spirits when they are running the show. Thanks again you guys rock!

Having paid the caterer over $6,000 to feed 500 guests and not show up until 9 pm (when dinner was supposed to be served at 6 pm) was just a nightmare. Because all the phone numbers I got via email just went straight to voicemail, David worked his magic and was able to get a phone number from his wife Lupe to get a hold of the caterer's owner, who supposedly "accidentally deleted my order". He did an amazing job continuing the party as it should while also keeping my guests informed and me calm. Prior to the party, I was in close contact with both David and Lupe. Communication was just superb. David listened and carried out my requests for the party, like our song choices. And, Lupe did an excellent job coming up with the timeline. Both would bring up concerns and suggestions/ideas that I wouldn't have thought of - just so everything going on during the party would run smoothly. In terms of price, they are more than willing to work around your budget. I would not hesitate for a second to work with them again! I really cannot thank David and Lupe, their son and staff enough for making my baby's party a success despite this huge mishap.

The last thing we wanted was to be too stressed out to enjoy our special day. They were an absolute lifesaver throughout the entire process who brought structure, guidance, and reassurance and made our special day the best of our lives. We had monthly check‑ins that kept us on track without ever feeling rushed, and their planning software kept every detail organized in a way we never could've managed on our own. It felt like having a roadmap to keep us on track while avoiding all the common pitfalls of the process. Whenever we wanted to discuss an item that made us stressed, Annie knew exactly what to say to help make us feel at ease. On the day-of, everything ran so flawlessly that we were completely unaware of anything happening behind the scenes. We got to be fully present, enjoy our day, and soak in every moment while they handled all the moving parts with total professionalism. Highly recommend!

Creating the timeline also made sure that I had things that I did not initially think about. Spaz arrived early, kept the party flowing and my guests loved his professionalism and fun atmosphere he created. Spaz also got the crowd involved with icebreakers and games.
