    Marino was wonderful! At our reception we had 150 guests and all of them told us that we had the best wedding they've ever been to. Marino at Ninja Entertainment was a huge part of why it was so successful. We had games for everything from the table release to the Garter toss. Our guests were able to get involved in the celebration and that made everything more fun. Thanks Marino for an amazing celebration!!

    All you have to do is meet Marino, and you will understand and see why he is such an amazing Emcee and DJ through his personality! Everything we wanted in our wedding (fun, energetic, keep the audience involved, etc) he was able to capture and it went smoothly! Everyone was raving about how our wedding was so much fun and entertaining! Throughout the wedding planning he even gave great ideas from our sports theme grand entrance, to our bouquet giveaway, to the garter toss, etc. He has so much passion and love for what he does, and it definitely shows! Even after the wedding he continues to show how happy he is for Gary and I! Thank you so much Marino!

With Marino he covers all his bases to ensure that the wedding reception will go smoothly and you wont have to worry about a thing! I knew that before during and after the reception, I did not have to worry about a thing! I highly suggest to all the future brides and grooms to choose Marino to host your event! You will be glad you did!

    Marino is the only MC that we know who can get the wedding you wanted. He gave us ideas that made our wedding fun and enjoyable to our guests. It was full of laughter and our guests didn't leave early as the other wedding party I've been to. We had a blast till the end. It was a night to remember all because of his creative ideas. He is also very professional and easy to work with. He's very organized and detailed. A lot of our friends and families told us they want to relive our wedding. I agree with them. It happened so fast that I'd still talk about it with friends and families. We definitely recommend him if your looking for a stress-free, fun, and enjoyable wedding!!!!

    Absolutely 5 out of 5 for everything. From the moment we first spoke to Marino he was lightning fast getting back to us (a rarity in Hawaii!). More than a DJ, Marino was a total entertainment guru, no request was too much for him. His fabulous ideas and hard work made our wedding the wonderful party that it was. Can't thank you enough.

    Where do I start? I planned my wedding for 2.5 years. I had a very specific vision I wanted. No matter how prepared you are, or how organized you are, the fact of the matter is you can't execute your vision on your wedding day when you in the big white dress. I interviewed every M.C. on the island, some more than once, and didn't find anyone who clicked with me or what I wanted. I was actually contemplating hiring someone I didn't actually like. Then I met Marino completely by chance, and he is worth his weight in diamonds.

    Marino and his team were fantastic from beginning to end. He completely catered to my vision. My day had its hang ups like all weddings do but with Marino there to handle everything, like my runner trying to fly away with the wind, it unfolded perfectly without a hitch. He also went above and beyond helping my husband and father put flowers up before the ceremony. Seven months after the wedding my family and friends are still talking about the event. Marino made my once in a life time moment happen and allowed our personalities to shine though in our wedding.

    I would absolutely recommend using Marino for your events. You will not be disappointed.

    Thank you Marino for the best New Years Eve wedding ever,

    Nicole and James Richardson

    ‎5 stars are not enough to rate the amount of professionalism, fun, and "stressless" moment that we received from Marino and his team from Ninja Entertainment! My husband and I were not planning on having a professional MC at our wedding, however, Marino totally sold us on how great and stress free it was to have his services. From ...the moment we all met up until the wedding day, Marino was completely "on it" with contacting our hired vendors to keep the reception program running smoothly. At our first official meeting, he was so enthusiastic about all these different ideas of how he could taylor our reception according to our interests and requests. We couldn't wait to see how all these ideas on paper would unfold on the actual wedding day!

    Our reception was completely stress free from the moment our ceremony was done up until the last song was played for the night. We didn't have to think what was going to happen next in the program, because Marino would quietly give us a heads up of what was to come next and he was totally flexible with timing! It has been over a year since the wedding our guests are still talking about how much fun they had and what their most memorable parts were. He literally took control of the reception (in a good way of course!) and created a unique and entertaining event that will always be remembered by us!

    Thank you so much Marino for convincing us that hiring a professional MC is something that we will never regret!!! We can't wait to work with you again in the future!!

    Marino was awesome! We received so many compliments from guests about how our wedding catered to the personality of my husband and I. From the different trivia to keep guests engaged while others visited the buffet, to the wedding party introductions, Marino knocked it out of the park. Everything went so smoothly and all of our guests had a fantastic time. I definitely recommend Ninja Entertainment if you want your reception to be unique & fun. Thanks Marino!!!

    When we first met Marino, he seemed like the perfect DJ for us: attentive, detailed, fun and professional. Marino assured us that the week before our wedding he would be completely devoted to us and to preparing for the big day. Well, a week before our wedding he wasn't responding to my emails and I had to text him 4 days before our wedding to make sure he received them. Very stressful to have to worry about that only days before the wedding. He finally got back to me and told me he was on an outer-island trip and would focus on our wedding when he came back the next day. Umm, okay. 3 days of prep is definitely not a week like we were told. On the day of the wedding he made numerous noticeable mistakes (names wrong, info about bride, groom, and groomsmen wrong, rude assistant) He even announced our names wrong multiple times. The bride and groom! Our families has to tell him he was saying the names wrong. Very embarrassing. After our wedding I emailed him letting him know how upset we were with the mistakes and lack of service before and during our wedding. It's been two months and he hasn't given us a response at all. No apology, nothing. I guess since we paid him already he doesn't really care. Considering the amount we paid for his services, we definitely didn't get what we paid for.
