One of the drinks I got had lilikoi and it was so sour I threw it out. Then a pink bubbly drink which had no taste threw it out. The mango drink was good but missing something. My kids didn't like the nachos. It was a weird queso. There is two people on staff that are super sweet. A gentleman and a sweet lady with glasses. There's one that needs an attitude makeover!

But even still, I was a little worried about it being good at best, because of the notorious reputation of "wedding food". But to our delight and amazement every single item was delicious and hence she named her business appropriately so. The food was a hit with the guests and everyone kept coming up to me raving about the hors d'ouevres and asking me if I got to try it yet, like the kalua pork quesadillas, and the thai crab and green mango salad on crispy wontons. Everyone had a favorite. Gina and her team were so accommodating to our custom requests and the service staff was extremely friendly and warm. They made sure that while we were busy getting pictures taken that we still got to eat and try everything.

TEC ART HAS DONE IT AGAIN!…read more I had a great experience when I was planning my daughters 1st birthday that I knew I would be coming back to their services again in the future. One year later, here I am giving an update on this year's services I had Tec Art help do for me. I wasn't planning on having a big celebration for my daughter this year that would require to hire vendor services but we found out we were going to welcome my 13 year old stepson home for good to Hawaii from Oregon. So I decided why not have a surprise welcoming party along with my daughters 2nd Birthday?! I contacted Maria a few months before the party date. Luckily she was available that night to provide services with them. I worked closely with her through emails and text if needed. Our date had to be changed to the following week and even though she was already booked with two other parties, she was still willing to take me on even though we had some conflicts that we managed to compromise. So grateful for her and her team to go above and beyond to meet our needs and expectations even through all the changes I had requested. The following services I got from them were: Digital Invitation Centerpieces Banner Money box Goody Bags Cardboard Sign Stage Balloons Let me tell you though! Trying to incorporate two themes is harder than trying to plan one theme. But Maria helped me go through ideas and it turned out awesome! We planned a joint TWOdles Minnie Mouse and Slytherin Harry Potter theme that fit well for the kids. There's so many ideas on Pinterest that could help guide your way but when you're indecisive person like me, it helps to have a planner that will help in making your decision. I threw random ideas at Maria and basically took it all into consideration and provided samples of what it'll look like. One thing I've noticed that some comments have been made by other people is that they don't get a response fast enough from them. I understand why they would say that but yet I have experience with this company two years in a row and they are a small business that provides a lot of services so it can be overwhelming. My advice would be to just be patient and if anything, do follow up emails like I did and even text/call them if you want a quicker response. From my experience, even though it may take longer for a response, I know that they're doing their job and will execute whatever request with pride. Their past events that they've done shows talent and impressive work. The end product was worth it. Thank you Maria & Jay for another year of party success and your generosity! :)

Where do I even begin?! Maria, Jay and their team are UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING! I truly believe that…read morethey are THE BEST at what they do! I was referred to Maria and Jay from a friend of mine because I was planning my son's 1st birthday party and looking for vendors. I then looked them up on Instagram to see their work and I was blown away! I have never seen balloon art like theirs and it's simply amazing! Very detailed, and extremely creative! I looked at few other companies before checking them out, and I knew once I saw their work that I HAD to have them for my son's 1st birthday party! I contacted Maria via Email about a month or two after my son was born (early I know, but the 1st birthday party planning struggle is real! And if you want certain vendors, you need to touch base w/them early to secure your date!) and she responded after a day or two. The first time I called her she picked up right away! And we were able to discuss my son's "Space Jam" themed party. Our first meeting was to discuss what we wanted for my son's party as far as colors, and what package we wanted to go with. For my son's party, they did the balloon art which included spiral columns, name arch, balloon decorations for the stage, cake table balloons, reception balloons, banner, basketball hoop arch for the entrance, centerpiece's, 3 balloons attached to centerpiece on each table and money box. (Money box was added to the package just two weeks before the party and they were able to accommodate! I am so thankful for that!) Throughout the year working with Maria was awesome, she always responded to my emails and returned my calls. She even accommodated last minute changes my bf wanted to make with the colors (just two weeks before the party) thank you for that!! Our last meeting was to give her our centerpiece items for the clear stuffed balloons and go over last details. The day of the party they were early and ready to go! (our venue was the Hawaii Okinawa Center in Waipio and they only give you an hour to set up). The balloon set up was amazing, almost a year working with Maria and to see all our planning come to life paid off! It was a great weight lifted off my shoulders! They make planning a party that much easier! I don't think you'll find another balloon company as creative as Tec Art Ideas! They are such a hard working team! On top of that they do so much more! Just inquire with Maria and she can definitely let you know all that they do. I hope this is not the last time I work with Maria and Jay of Tec Art Ideas Hawaii because they were very professional and creative which shows in their work. I appreciate all their input and ideas throughout the planning process and I'll be forever thankful!

Great person. Janice was very thorough during the prep, however, there were many issues during the…read morerehearsal day & on the wedding day. For starters, Janice told us that she had another wedding the same day in the morning AFTER she had my then fiancé & I sign her contract. There were issues in Janice not coordinating clearance for my 91-year-old flower girl & her caregiver to drive up the special utility road for the rehearsal AND wedding day; resulting in my flower girl & her caregiver driving 40+ minutes TWO DAYS in a row, just to be turned around by security. The result was that I had NO flower girl on my wedding day & my officiant announced to my seated guests if anyone had seen ______ (my flower girl's name). Causing confusion and frustration to my guests, bridal party, my parents, and the groom, & myself. My mom was talking on the phone with my flower girl's caregiver trying to figure out what was happening & why security turned them around, while also trying to rush back to get her makeup touch-up. My mom tried to call Janice's phone to ask for help in coordinating my flower girl's arrival, however, Janice did not pick up. Later Janice said something along the lines of I don't keep my phone on me when I go to the ceremony area.....I couldn't help but think, "You're the VERY ONE who SHOULD have your phone on you in case anything happens or we need help. During the Reception, she was in the back by the DJ the whole time and when I was thinking that the DJ forgot a special family dance song...I, the bride had to get up from the sweetheart table at the front and walk across the side of the dance floor to flag Janice down (twice because there was an interruption) to ask her if they skipped/forgot about the special family dance. Her team also did not set up the game supplies to be under the sweetheart table, so I had to walk over to a maid-of honor and ask her to get the box at the pavilion labeled "reception." Since Janice had a wedding in the morning when my bridal party arrived to Kualoa Ranch, her sister and significant other came to help set things up. The makeup artist's scheduled time on the itinerary was off from what was communicated to the makeup artist...so we thought the makeup artist was late. The sister didn't know much about how to help set up things and even said she was tired and hungry...so I, the bride gave her a banana to snack on. I honestly could go on...but will just say that I would NOT recommend this company for your special wedding day.

First off, I don't normally give negative reviews unless the the business is super bad or the…read morecustomer service is horrible. We had a family wedding this past weekend. A Coordinator is someone who coordinates and is responsible to get things in order and help alleviate the stress that happens at an event. I understand it's a difficult job, but it's your profession nonetheless. Janice was like a deer in headlights and seemed like she had no idea what was happening at all. Her commitment to her job was almost non existent. She's was supposed to be at our rehearsal at the church, but apparently didn't plan her day well as she was only half present during our rehearsal. She agreed ahead of time to be there and changed it up because she "forgot" she had another event to be at. It is your job to get your stuff together. If you can't make it, say you can't! Don't agree to it and cancel and assume you have a handle on the wedding when you obviously don't. She was also late on the day of the wedding because of her alarm! Oh my goodness! All our vendors ended up contacting the bride because Janice wasn't available! Worse yet, she asked the bridesmaid and groomsmen to do her duties because she wasn't there. The ceremony didn't go as planned, but we improvised. Poor execution on her part since she wasn't at the entirety of our rehearsal! Reception was also dismal! Information was given to her prior, but was never checked out to account for errors or changes, as we had to, again, improvise on our own! I've worked in the wedding industry as a photographer and videographer and have with many Coordinators over the years. Wedding Planner 808 (Janice) is one I DO NOT recommend as there is no consistency, zero punctuality and no integrity to her craft. As with any profession, it can be difficult, but at least show up to do it. Save your hard earned money and look elsewhere!

LONG OVERDUE REVIEW:…read more We planned our parents' 30th Wedding Anniversary from the mainland. Patricia was so wonderful and accommodating throughout the entire process. She was very transparent with prices and helped us stay within our budget while still delivering quality top notch work. The florals photographed so well, but do NOT do it justice. It was so much more beautiful in person. Our decor for the chapel doubled as decor for the reception. Groomsmen (sons and son in law) got leis, bridesmaids (daughters & daughter in law) got tropical bouquets, sponsors got leis, grandsons all got leis as well as my dad (groom). My mother was given a beautiful lei po'o for the reception & she used it everyday for we were on the island. I cannot thank Patricia enough for making my mom's vision come to life. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Just do it. Seriously. THE BEST experience. Patricia is AMAZING.

She listened to my…read moreconcept -- Lord of the Rings-inspired woodland whimsical with lots of greens -- and brought it to life and then some! Not only did she create centerpieces and sweetheart table pieces that perfectly fit the theme, but she also intuitively chose exactly the right KINDS of flowers and greenery that were in sync with my spiritual needs (even though I didn't tell her about any of it!). On top of that, she also was able to fly in specialty Thai lei from Thailand which we presented to our parents. They were gorgeous and were a wonderful, unexpected cultural touch. She helped my sister-in-law who made a donut cake for us by providing some extra greens to tie everything together, even though she didn't have to! Patricia was super responsive, super flexible, and reasonably priced for the work that she did. I would absolutely recommend her for any of your floral needs. I understand she also does cookies, cupcakes, and cakes (I've seen the pictures on Instagram); I'm sure I'll be back to use those services for future parties!

Our experience planning our destination wedding in Oahu, Hawaii with Yanicke, where we first met…read moreand fell in love, was nothing short of a fairytale. As a newly engaged couple living in New Jersey, we had been ideating on whether we should pull the trigger on organizing our wedding in Hawaii - the ultimate destination wedding location - not to mention, one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Just knowing this, we assumed it would be out of our budget, especially given that we were planning a big fat Polish-Indian wedding spanning multiple days, faiths, cultures and more! We began emailing quite a few planners via The Knot and Wedding Wire just to get a feel for what we could except from planning a wedding in Hawaii in general. Beyond worrying about our budget, we were torn on whether we could logistically execute something so elaborate being so far away....until that fateful Monday morning back in 2024, when Yanicke called me out of the blue. She quickly introduced herself, mentioning how she had received our inquiry, and immediately dove into her ideas for our special day. I just loved that she took the initiative to do that, especially given the crazy, 6-hour time difference! She explained how she had worked with a venue that could double as accommodations for us and our immediate family, something we knew would be one of the best ways to actually host and easily organize the wedding weekend of both Indian and Polish wedding festivities. For us, Yanicke REALLY shined when it came to tapping her vast network of vendors and and managing our budget. She advised us on what we should prioritize and invest in, and what we could do without, while still maintaining the overall vision and vibe we wanted to create for ourselves and our guests on the the big day. She was EQUALLY impressive on both our rehearsal and wedding days. She suggested we rehearse not just the Catholic, but the and Hindu ceremony as well, which was so worth it given the many rituals and parent involvement. The timeline she had started putting together months before our wedding, plus the finalized version accounting for vendor arrivals, additional notes and moments we needed to incorporate, was exactly what we envisioned and needed the most, and everyone was locked in and delivered once the big day came. On our wedding day, Yanicke managed every vendor, navigated any delays with grace, and even helped with family drama all while keeping us perfectly on track. We felt supported, celebrated, and completely stress-free with her by our side. Yanicke is a real gem with years of wedding planning wisdom and sharp networking skills that is truly hard to come by these days. She advocates for both her clients and her network, and will make you feel like family from Day 1.
