Hire this band!

The Island Kings were phenomenal, I'm so glad they were available to play at our Maui wedding. Our guests all commented about how good the band was, but I didn't need to hear it from them because I could tell: the dance floor was full all night!

In the months leading up to the wedding, Tahiti helped us navigate some logistical issues with the venue. On the day of the event, the band arrived and setup and performed without needing any help from us. Everything was so seamless and professional.

Evan and the other musicians were all exceptionally good. So glad we splurged for a five-piece band — the saxophone really adds to the energy of the evening.

I had only one regret, which is that we were so busy taking pictures and mingling with guests that I didn't get to hear the cocktail hour music. Hopefully our videographer captured it — I'm sure it was amazing!

The best wedding band ever

We couldn’t have asked for a better band to play at our wedding. They kept the vibe high and the party going all night long. Our MC was also amazing.

Fabulous Band!!!

Mark,
I just wanted to take a moment and Thank you and the Band for an absolutely wonderful night at the Mauna Kea 9/25/21 for our daughter, Megan Berry and her husband Daniel Fleek.
Ashley (Swept Away Events) knew my obsession with getting a live band at the last minute.... You not only responded quickly but made the entire process seem so easy (at least to me!) I can only tell you and please share with your band mates....the moment my daughter heard the sounds of a live bank outside at the cocktail area.... our eyes locked and her expression of surprise and excitement will be the moment I knew Ashley hit it out of the park and one I will never forget!!!!!!
With lots of Covid "No can Do's" and restrictions coming every other day, the band was the piece of the puzzle that put our event over the top. Although we had to play nice and creatively figure out how to dance in our chairs..... the evening will forever be a wonderful memory for our family and friends.
Thank you again for facilitating along with Ashley to make our daughters #1 request ... a Great band, come to reality.
I can only hope in the future of No covid we can do it again and really really DANCE!!!!
Many Thanks to you and the band. You truly are amazing.

National Tropical Botanical Garden National Tropical Botanical Garden Park & Outdoor Weddings

National Topical Botanical Garden on the South Shore of Kaua'i recently hosted a fabulous wedding and reception in the McBryde Garden Big Valley. There were approximately 80 guests that attended. The wedding ceremony was located under a beautiful tree with vines hanging from it, a romantic natural backdrop that was unforgettable in this tropical garden! The reception was located in the same location under a tent, decorated with tropical floral chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, just stunning! The wedding celebration started the evening with "Island Kings Band" from Oahu that sang songs that was tailored for the couple. Everything from romantic songs, to classical, to rock and roll high energy dancing music every hit you could imagine! They were amazing with an incredible musicianship, wish it did not end. Everyone was up on that dance floor until the very end. Island Kings Band a world class, what a fantastic experience. Mahalo! Hope to see you back at another event!
