About

Your One Stop Polynesian Shop!!

Manutea Nui E, meaning the growth of the white bird, is a family owned and operated entertainment and production company. Owner Joey Dang started Manutea Nui E from a tiny costume shop in 2007 and then grew it to where we are today, a network of passionate entertainment professionals eager to represent our Island home. We specialize in private events that range from the simplest of wedding ceremonies and receptions to the largest corporate conventions.

We offer entertainment that fits every occasion by providing the most convenient and personal service found in Hawaii. Luau shows, Hawaiian games, sound/lights, private Hula lessons, and musician trios are just a few of the services we offer. Because accommodation is paramount for us at Manutea Nui E, customizing allows our clients to tailor the exact Polynesian experience they desire.

What we strive for is to have a more personal connection with our audience, to deliver an experience that is memorable and impactful, and to develop a long-lasting relationship with our visitors. Memorable experiences of Hawaii become stories that are shared time and time again. Let Manutea Nui E help to create that story, a story worth telling.

We used Manutea Nui E for our wedding officiant and beach permit. We were a bit nervous about hiring an officiant that we had never met or spoke with but it turned out great! Keakoa was everything you'd expect a Hawaiian officiant to be and more, He was personable, warm, spiritual, and shared with us his calling of spreading the knowledge of the Hawaiian traditions. My husband and I felt so grateful to have such a beautiful ceremony, our hearts are filled with great love and respect for the islands and its traditions!

I was in touch with Joey, who was always prompt in replying to any questions I had, and gave concise, clear answers =)
The team that came to our wedding, and the officiant (Blake), were all amazing.
I would recommend them to everyone!!!

She was so helpful at finding us an officiant for our wedding in Maui. She could not have picked a better person. Alika was absolutely what we were looking for and performed a very intimate, romantic, amazing ceremony. I can not thank you enough. You guys were GREAT and made our special elopement more then we could have ever imagined.

Can only say Unbelievable! Joey is fantastic at organizing and providing A+ service. We had a fire person at our wedding and a full show at the day after party- both were authentic and AMAZING- all the guests are still talking about it- this is a great visual treat for everyone!

Manutea Nui E's officiant and hula teacher were "magical". From my initial email to "you may now kiss the bride" sealed by the sound of the officiant blowing the conch shell, the wedding was a Hawaiian fairy tale. They made the bride's dreams come true, and blanketed the day with deep caring, smiles and true enjoyment -- guests repeatedly stated it was not only a wedding, it was an "experience".

Manutea Nui E was awesome! As we were having an intimate gathering of our closest friend and family, we thought it would be nice to make our reception feel like a luau. The entertainment that Manutea Nui E provided was fun and exciting!

Joey and the crew with Manutea Nui E are incredible. Not only were they great for practical things, like punctuality and organization, they were friendly, upbeat, and made us feel like this was personalized just for us. The officient, the dancers, the musicians, and everyone involved were the amazing! I wouldn't hesitate to call Joey again if I ever need another event planned here in Maui.
