We had the absolute pleasure of working with Robert from Hilo Productions for our wedding luncheon, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. From the beginning, Robert made the planning process incredibly easy and stress-free. He was proactive in scheduling multiple check-ins and video calls to go over every detail, ensuring everything was tailored to our preferences.

One thing that really stood out to us was how Robert asked about our ‘selfish want’ – a personal touch that meant a lot. He understood that we wanted to spend quality time with our friends and family, and he made sure that happened.

Robert’s energy and enthusiasm as an MC were contagious. He was spot-on with the timeline, keeping the event flowing seamlessly. His ability to engage the crowd with fun games was impressive, and it really added an extra layer of enjoyment.

As a DJ, Robert was amazing. He read the room perfectly and had everyone, from our youngest guests to the oldest, up and dancing by the end of the night.

We highly recommend Robert for any event where you need a great DJ and an engaging MC. He went above and beyond to make our wedding luncheon special, and for that, we are incredibly grateful. Thank you, Robert, for contributing so significantly to the success of our day!

We are so happy to have chosen Hilo Productions for our DJ & MC services on our 11/11/23 wedding!

So many things to rave about when it comes to Robert and his team:

Robert spent a lot of time getting to know both me and my now husband, prior to booking. He wanted to make sure he knew what kind of event we wanted, what traditions or customs we would be recognizing, and what vibes we wanted with our crowd! We're so appreciative of this as we recognize the DJ and MC truly set the tone for the reception. We knew immediately when we were done talking to him that we wanted to work with him and his team!

We needed a bilingual English/Vietnamese MC and Robert linked us up with his amazing MC, Linnie. I hopped on a call with her and heard her voice, her tone, and loved her personality! I knew that Robert selected the perfect person for the job. Linnie worked with me and my husband to get our families' name pronunciations correct, and ran through the reception with us so we knew what was going to happen. I had the utmost confidence in Linnie, and as expected, she killed it! She translated my dad's Vietnamese toast to English perfectly, and we received so many compliments about what an amazing MC she was! Linnie is sweet and funny, not cringey or anything at all - just pure joy!

Next, Robert selected DJ Derrick to be our DJ of the night. I'm so glad he did because Derrick truly delivered the ~*vibes*~ all night long!! All of the songs we selected for entrances went off without a hitch, he played amazing music for the reception (we booked them for reception only) during dinner, sneaking in a few of my absolute favorite songs that I really wanted to hear, and then he kept the dance floor busy all night! I loved the selection of music that really fit our preferences and our guests' preferences. He read the crowd and knew what music would keep the energy high and by the end of the night, I nearly lost my voice because I was having the best time dancing and singing. Shoutout to him also sneaking in my favorite song ever for a surprise in the last track too!! We also had so many wonderful comments about him after!!

Finally, Robert kept in touch with us throughout the process to make sure we were feeling okay leading up to the wedding. He understands all of the family obligations that comes with wedding planning, and makes sure that your wedding is something the couple actually wants, while also respecting our cultures! If I felt anxious, he always calmed me down, and I'm so appreciative of it!

Thank you Robert, Linnie, and Derrick for all of your work! We were so lucky to have you!!!

SERIOUSLY! The title to this review doesn’t give it justice. From start to finish, Rob was the best we could hope for. Coming from newlyweds that had no idea what to expect, Rob helped us with more than we knew we needed. Immediately out the gate from identifying him as our go to DJ, he was so hands on. My wife and I were not expecting that but was so nice. He asked us so many questions and you could tell he truly wanted to make this an experience to remember. Furthermore, he helped us organize our entire timeline of the day and reception and that provided so much clarity for us. If we ever had questions or needed help, he was responsive and provided his input (even on his vacation he helped!!). The day off was amazing. The mix of music was so much fun and everyone RAVED about the great music and how great he was! Seriously, Rob was a life saver for our biggest day. Do not waste time finding another DJ. He is the MAN!
