The best money we spent on the wedding was the incomparable Mango Season! We found them through a very serendipitous Spotify search, and I reached out asking if they were free to play for my wedding. As it turned out, they also had wedding planning services, so we decided to hire them for both their music and their planning.


To say it was 'money well spent' is an incredible understatement. Annie and Curtis made the wedding planning process smooth, which is no small feat considering how the wedding was originally planned for early 2020, and ended up going through three date changes and two and a half venues. Be it pandemic restrictions or venues closing for renovation, Mango Season was always on top of the chaos that came our way. When our first venue told us about their prolonged renovation, Mango Season provided a list of alternatives and scouted them out in record time. When new Oahu gathering restrictions (10 indoor, 25 outdoor) hit the week before our wedding, Mango Season negotiated with our new venue to help figure out a solution where we could have everything outdoors. Not only that, but they kept on top of our rental contracts, adapting everything seamlessly to fit the new venues, finding new rentals to cover new concerns, as well as drafting up new layouts to accommodate our unorthodox reception plan.


Not only were they spectacular before the wedding, but they were incredible during as well. With Annie's detailed timeline in hand, everyone was on the same page on what would happen when. Annie and her team were pneumatically efficient and organized in shepherding the guests, communicating with the wedding party, handling test and vaccination checks, making the favors, and more. The day of and the days after, our wedding party and family continually commented on how amazing Mango Season was at handling and coordinating the day.


Three paragraphs in and I haven't even gotten to the music yet! Needless to say, Mango Season Music blew me away. Before the ceremony, Curtis played some great Hawaiian slack key guitar. He also learned three songs for the ceremony - two instrumental covers of vocals, and one vocal - and pulled them off with aplomb. During the dinner portion of the reception, we had a jazz trio and they played an great set of tunes: Moondance, Fly Me To The Moon, Mango Season's own Lanikai Moon etc. They have a really fun funky, jazzy, groovy style, and my guests loved the songs they played! Some of them even asked me for a list of all the songs haha. Not only that, but for the dance party portion, they put together some of my favorite songs into an awesome dance mix. Curtis also made a great emcee, smoothly transitioning through each part of the reception.


At the end of the night we were both elated by how the day went, but also a little sad, because it marked the last day that we'd be working with Mango Season, who we've been working with for more than two years! Seriously, do not hesitate to hire them; they are incredible planners and fantastic musicians. There are so many other things they did that I don't have the space to touch on -- all the suggestions Annie had to flesh out my rough wedding vision, their storeroom of items (signage, gift boxes, candle holders etc) so we didn't have to spend on more rentals, the wedding planning tool they had (Aisle Planner) that kept us on track and organized -- even now as I think more and more things are coming to my mind! We can't express how grateful we are to them for making everything so perfect!


Annie and Curtis - thank you so much for the best day of our lives!

We chose Mango Season as one of our first vendors, and it turned out to be an excellent decision!

Curtis made the whole process so easy right from the start. He set up a virtual meeting to talk through our ideas and helped us figure out what we wanted, even when we weren’t sure ourselves. He sent sound samples to help us pick the right mix of instruments and even offered to edit the song for our choreographed first dance.

On the wedding day, their performance was amazing. So many guests complimented the music! They adjusted perfectly to the vibe of the event as it went on, and Curtis even acted as the MC for transitions, which he did naturally. Even with our venue’s strict sound rules, everything went smoothly because of their careful planning. Curtis also went out of his way to help. He visited the venue beforehand to take notes and offer layout suggestions, even though we didn’t ask him to. This extra effort gave us so much confidence that everything would go well.

We can’t recommend Mango Season enough! They didn’t just deliver amazing music—they made us feel supported and cared for every step of the way. It’s clear they care about making weddings special, and we’re so grateful for everything they did.

We hired Mango Season to provide the music for our wedding at the Hau Terrace at the Halekulani Hotel, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. From the start, working with Curtis (one of the owners) was a breeze. During our first video call, we could tell he was professional, personable, and someone we could trust to deliver an unforgettable musical experience for our special day.

For our ceremony, Curtis performed acoustic guitar and vocals, which perfectly complemented the intimate setting of our ~50-person wedding. For the reception, Mango Season transformed into a fantastic four-piece band for the dancing portion of the evening. They played for about two hours with a short break, and I genuinely wish we could have had them play even longer, everyone had a blast on the dance floor.

Mango Season learned four new songs for us, plus a surprise rendition of "Brown Eyed Girl" with custom lyrics—"Green Eyed Girl"—in my honor. It was such a thoughtful and memorable touch!

Curtis went above and beyond by coordinating directly with the Halekulani to ensure all the details were in place for the band. He even took the time to help my brother (our officiant) with the pronunciation of a few Hawaiian words in our ceremony script—a gesture that meant so much to us.

We can’t recommend Mango Season highly enough for weddings or any special event.

Thank you so much to Mango Season! Our guests had such an enjoyable time listening to good music. Curtis was amazing and easy going and very responsive. The band even learned a new jam for us. They were very accommodating and even did a site visit before our party. Really enjoyed having them and hope to be able to throw more parties with them as our band in the future! Mahalo!

Annie and her team at Mango Season Weddings were an absolute dream to work with. We booked their partial wedding planning package with day-of coordination and would do so again without hesitation. Their impeccable organization, attention to detail, and reliability kept us on track and stress-free throughout the entire planning process.

Annie's keen insight into the intricacies of weddings truly made our day exceptional. She steered us through all numbers of small decisions that we otherwise would have just been guessing at. Her thoughtful additions to our decor surpassed our expectations, adding a touch of magic to our celebration. An additional lifesaver was the flexibility Annie and her team offered during our hectic moving process. Allowing us to ship wedding items directly to her for the big day made the last few months of planning much smoother and less stressful. Their accommodating approach truly reflects their dedication to ensuring every aspect of our wedding was taken care of, no matter the circumstances.

On the big day, Annie and her team ensured everything ran seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. Multiple guests commented on what a fantastic wedding it was, and we owe a large part of that to Mango Season Weddings.

If you're looking for a wedding planner who goes above and beyond to make your dreams a reality, look no further than Annie and the team at Mango Season Weddings. Thank you for making our day truly unforgettable!

We absolutely loved Mango Season! Curtis and Annie were beyond wonderful! We had to postpone our original date due to Covid and they were so
accommodating with the changes. We planned our wedding from California and Curtis always was great with communication. The day turned out better than we could have ever imagined! We had them sing live and Curtis even learned our first dance song and it was so beautiful ! I get teary eyed thinking about it . We also had a DJ for the last two hours of our reception. That was awesome! So well done! Annie MC’d and she did a magnificent job! We even had hula dancers at the reception. This was really a dream come true and we couldn’t have had it with out Mango Season! Thank you so much Curtis and Annie!

Curtis and his wife, Annie, brought our wedding welcome party to life with their incredible musical talent! From the start, the company was extremely professional: holding a Zoom to hear about our vision & preferences, checking in just before the event week and working seamlessly with our venue behind the scenes. They worked within our budget and even a duo sounded like a 4-5 piece band. They even MC’d the evening for us and kept the party moving and grooving all night long. Our guests had a blast! We especially appreciated that they learned a new song just for our party and performed it to a tee. We could not recommend Mango Seasons for your event enough - book them, you will not regret it!

We originally wanted an intimate ensemble for the ceremony and dinner. The DJ for dancing.

We soon realised how much ambience a band gives for the whole event. We went with mango season as our wedding planner mentioned they were very good.
After meeting with Curtis , he was so helpful on planning, song selection, timing or order of songs.
The night was incredible and the music was so on point. We had a lot of guests comment on how good they were.

We are so happy with the package mango season had to offer our wedding. Thanks again. I can’t recommend highly enough.

Mango Season Weddings is amazing!!! Curtis and DJ Chris provided emcee and DJ services for our wedding in Hawaii at the end of August. Even though we only gave Curtis about a month or so notice he was totally on board and extremely positive! Curtis was so kind, patient and supportive when helping us plan our wedding program. He was very detail oriented and thought of things that we hadn’t (i.e. order of set up for performances, speeches, dances, etc.) to help make our reception incredible!

Curtis was extremely professional, down to earth and an absolute pleasure to work with. He was also so responsive and completely eased our nerves. Not only is he a fantastic singer but he’s also a great emcee, funny and really got the crowd going. DJ Chris was equally amazing, playing great music and even got both sets of parents on the dance floor!! Everyone had soo much fun!! Thank you both!!

Hiring Mango Season (Curtis and Annie) was one of the best decisions my husband and I have ever made for our wedding. They were very professional, flexible and quick to answer the questions we had. They created such a perfect cozy/jazzy atmosphere that we dreamt of for our wedding. Many of our guest (of course including us two) seriously fell in love with their voice. highly highly highly recommend hiring them. Thank you Curtis and Annie for making our wedding so perfect!
