Testimonials
"Hunter was so down for our crazy-ness and has the best "lets do it" attitude. You can tell by talking to him that he loves what he does and he really feels out the crowd to make the music work with the mood and get the party started. We were one of those weddings that had to postpone because of covid, not once but twice. Hunter stayed with us through it all!
One of the best things that Hunter did was helping us plan our grand entrance. We wanted to time out my me and my wife's entrance to the song "Past Lives" by BORNS. Hunter mixed the song for us so that our bridal party went down to the slow part and looped it so it always was just the slow part for them and when the song got faster he timed it perfectly for us to cue up our Jurassic Park jeeps (Yah, that's right we got Jurassic Park jeeps for this!) pulling up and us walking down the aisle.
Our ceremony and Reception locations were different but he made it all possible by having his mobile set up at the ceremony location and be ready to play with his full set up at the reception when the guests arrived. He even dealt with our friends who were really intense about song requests! He filtered out the bad requests and only kept the good! He also made sure that the microphone we used at the ceremony worked and sounded great so everyone could hear our voices without straining one bit!
He ALSO mixed the 2 Father/Daughter songs together. I was really fixated on having the two songs not full length and mix in the middle and he did it perfectly without any weird lag in between songs. It was awesome. A nice touch that he provides is uplighting for the gorgeous tree at our reception which you wouldn't think would be a DJ thing but it was so awesome to have! I would highly recommend Hunter. He'll take good care of you!

"Super thankful we chose Hunter at Aloha Event DJ for our wedding. He responded to us quickly, had great music recommendations, and was always very friendly. During our initial free consultation, he really took the time to make sure our music was perfect to our tastes. At our wedding, everyone was dancing! We couldn't have asked for a better playlist. His speakers sounded amazing, especially with the huge subwoofer. Cool lights too! Any couple would be lucky to have Hunter at their event. Thank you Hunter!"

"Hunter at Aloha Event DJ did an AMAZING job as the DJ/Emcee for our wedding at Paliku Gardens, Kualoa Ranch in October 2024! Despite my wife and I residing in the UK (11hr time difference), Hunter really simplified the planning/coordination process for us, which definitely helped ease some of our wedding planning stress. We really only needed to talk to Hunter one time before the actual wedding, as he was able to visualize/execute exactly what we wanted for our wedding day. Following the wedding, many of our guests commented on how smooth the wedding went, to include the perfect volume of music (not too loud - not too quiet), friendliness/receptiveness of Hunter (while taking music requests) and clear communication during announcements.
Overall, I believe we made the perfect choice with Hunter and Aloha Event DJ. His kindness and professionalism throughout the entirety of the wedding process was exceptional. 100% recommend for any type of event!"

"We highly recommend hiring Hunter to be your wedding DJ and emcee! Music was a high priority for us, and I had reached out to both him and another DJ on the island. Ultimately, we chose Hunter based on his experience, services, and overall cost, and we have no regrets. Hunter was thorough and responsive throughout the planning process, from his questionnaire to our final music call, which made me feel confident that he understood our music style. Once we started working with our day-of coordinator, she was thrilled to learn we had hired Hunter, mentioning that she loves working with him, which reassured us that we made the right choice!
Fast forward to our wedding day, and we couldn’t have been more pleased with how everything went! My husband and I have quite different music tastes, but Hunter blended our selections seamlessly throughout the day. The dance floor was lively all night long, and Hunter was so accommodating with guest music requests. We received so many compliments on the music after the wedding! Thank you so much to Hunter and team for such a memorable day! If you’re planning a wedding on Oahu, you definitely need to hire Hunter!"

"We worked with Hunter from Aloha Event DJ and he provided exceptional DJ and emcee services at our wedding. Our wedding coordinator recommended him on their preferred vendor list, and he was also a top pick on multiple wedding websites. We current living in Oregon, planning a wedding in Oahu so most of our communication was via. email & phone. Hunter was quick to respond when I sent an inquiry and consistently stayed quick to respond when I had any questions throughout the planning process. It was a pleasure working with him. He helped us put together multiple playlists for certain parts of our wedding. Our wedding guests loved him, and he played songs that fit the vibe. He is so sweet and we were so happy to finally meet him in person! Best part: He sent us a follow up email after our wedding thanking us for allowing him to DJ at our event."

Having him as out DJ was the best decision ever. He kept us on our timeline and had all my family and friends dancing the night away. He was so nice and made sure we knew what was going on and took care of us. We couldn’t have been happier. It was definitely a day to remember."

"Hunter and the team at Aloha Event DJ were the perfect fit for our wedding! Hunter was easy to work with and he gave us so many great suggestions for some of the songs we still needed help picking. The team was a great addition to our wedding and our dance floor was a hit the entire night. My husband shared my love of Taylor Swift with Hunter ahead of time so he made sure to throw in her songs throughout the night which was so special. Aloha Event DJ is definitely the group to go with for your wedding day!"

"Hunter was awesome to work with. He's friendly, attentive, professional, and responsive. He is very detail-oriented and paid close attention to our requests. He responded to every contact request quickly and professionally. He was very sensitive and respectful of our musical tastes, both likes and dislikes. He will speak as much or as little as you would like him to in order to help set the mood for your personal wedding event.

"We had Hunter as our wedding DJ and MC & he did such a fabulous job! I’m normally pretty on top of things but he was the one vendor who was always prompting me to coordinate calls and for more information. We had some particular questions about set up and the mics and he was able to answer everything in detail and quickly
He made sure everything l ran smoothly during the day, and when something went awry he quickly helped quickly steer the event in a different direction. He did an amazing job with the music as well. I didn’t think my friends liked dancing but at one point we realized everyone was on the dance floor. We would highly recommend Hunter!"

"Hunter is an AMAZING DJ and MC! He was so thorough and quick to respond during the whole planning process. He is so kind and even offered helpful advice on other wedding related things! He is very organized and was on time with the reception schedule. He really kept the party going, I was dancing all night! The cold sparks and uplighting were awesome as well. At the end of the night my guests were chanting 'one more song!' He also had raving reviews from my family and friends. I am so happy I booked with Hunter!"

Hunter was very helpful through the entire planning process, from asking us all the questions on our music preferences, having a great program suggestions, and curating a soundtrack that fit us perfect! The whole event we were so happy with the music, and his MC services guiding everyone along throughout the day.

Aloha Event DJ has high quality audio & visual equipment and the photo booth was a hit! We would definitely recommend Aloha Event DJ for any upcoming weddings.

"We knew about Hunter from seeing him at my best friend's (my co-MOH's) wedding and we liked the way he worked! Hunter was our DJ and MC for our wedding and he and his team did an amazing job!
Over the months leading up to the wedding, Hunter would respond to our emails right away and was very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We really appreciate that he allowed us to add in some final additional requests (cold sparks, newly added songs) to our package super last minute, and appreciated how patient he was after my husband and I took forever confirming all of our music lol (sorry, Hunter, thank you so much again!)
On the day of the wedding, he remained super professional and friendly! The waiting time before the ceremony lasted longer than planned and he managed to make the music/emceeing sound as if no delays happened at all. He did an awesome job and made every part of the wedding go smoothly, from the processional all the way to the end! My husband and all of our friends had a really fun time dancing all the way to the end of the night and we got compliments on how they were able to dance to all the songs that played! He was also really good at reading the crowd and managed to get some of the older folks to get up and dance to a ton of fun songs they loved, too!
Hunter always had a smile on his face and was also super calm and composed. He handled everything so well as he worked with our other vendors (coordinator, officiant, photographer/videographer) to make sure everything ran smoothly, which helped us remain calm as well and not worry about anything. We are so thankful to have had him as our DJ/emcee and wouldn't have had it any other way! The services he provided were outstanding. Thank you so much again, Hunter and team!"

"We had the wonderful experience of having Hunter DJ our wedding and it was fantastic. We gave him a few playlists and some description for our general vibe, but otherwise let him run with his instincts. From cocktail hour to hours of dancing, Hunter hit the vibe perfectly! He was also adaptive and very professional when one or two impromptu speeches started happening. He's easy to work with and was a lovely DJ for our event!"

"We are so lucky to have had Hunter during our wedding day! He made sure to keep us on schedule the whole night and played all of our specific songs on cue perfectly.

He was a lovely addition to our wedding and our guests had an amazing time dancing the night away."

Hunter kept everyone dancing and ensured the energy stayed high throughout the event. His ability to read the crowd and keep the party going was impressive. We would highly recommend Hunter to anyone looking for a fantastic DJ. Thank you, Hunter, for making our wedding day unforgettable!"

"DJ Hunter was great to work with! When we first started discussing things with him, he provided a questionnaire that was incredibly thorough and helped us parse the kind of music and vibes we wanted for each portion of our wedding. We even asked him to mix 2 different versions of songs into one for our first dance and he made a mix that just works so brilliantly. He really thinks of what's required in a wedding in an audio equipment perspective - he brought everything that was required! He had wireless mics hooked up on us for everyone to hear our vows, mics for any speeches made by family, and dance lighting for the dance party portion."
-Gabby + Jean

"Absolutely the best experience having Hunter as the MC and DJ for our wedding! Hunter was incredibly friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. Since our wedding had a concert theme, the music was a huge part of the atmosphere, and I had specific requirements for songs to play at certain moments. Hunter met with us multiple times, helping us refine our playlist to suit the vision we had in mind. He created the perfect vibe and kept our guests on the dance floor all night! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ—thank you, Hunter, for making our day unforgettable!"

"Hunter made communication leading up to the wedding and on the day seamless and organised. He was able to provide us with directions and instructions, which helped us curate our dream music for the day. Volume for ceremony and reception was excellent, not too loud or soft. He was able to all music cues timed perfectly and he was able to read the room and make adjustments flawlessly. He even played special songs for us that we had requested for the dance floor. The Photo Booth was also a big hit and organised well on the day with an attendant. Aloha Event DJ was one of the best aspects of our wedding and we can’t recommend them more for your big day or event."
Thanks,

"Hunter was incredible from start to finish—so easy to work with, truly professional and remembers every detail. He made the planning process seamless, listening to all of our ideas and requests (even last minute changes!) and then bringing them to life on the dance floor. Our guests had an amazing time all night long. If you’re looking for a DJ who is talented, organized, and a pleasure to work with, we highly recommend Hunter!
Hunter, Mahalo again for everything!🤙🏼 Keep it vibin'! :)

"From day 1, Hunter was so easy to work with! He got to know our musical tastes and was so open to all our ideas! We asked for a karaoke hour during the reception thinking it would be too difficult and he was immediately down and executed it perfectly! From the ceremony, to emceeing the reception, to keeping the dance floor and karaoke lit - Hunter executed everything perfectly!
Professional and smooth communication before and after, we couldn't ask for a better vendor experience. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you, Hunter!"
-Joan & Jeff
"Hunter crushed it!! From our first conversion with Hunter, I knew he was awesome. We knew what it would take to have a rockin dance party, and Hunter was able to execute our plans perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ! He handled all our requests and had great advice."
-Rebecca
"Hunter is the best! We came to Maui from California to get married this past October and used Aloha Events and were so pleased with everything! Hunter is very communicative and kept the wedding on track. He asked us our music preferences for dinner ambiance and party time and everything was perfectly aligned. My guests had the best time interacting with Hunter - Aloha Events massively contributed to the best party we've ever had thank you team!!!!"
-Amanda
"Hunter was a pleasure to work with and did a flawless job at my wedding. He was a great MC and several of my guests mentioned how good the music was! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ in Hawaii."

"Hunter absolutely nailed our playlist!!! I wanted a nonstop dance party and that’s exactly what I got! My guest are still talking about how much fun the dance floor was!!! Hunter was a great communicator and very accommodating. He made sure we had our requested classics, old school throwbacks and had GREAT suggestions that we didn’t know we needed!!"
-Brittney
"Hunter from Aloha Event DJ was crucial to making our wedding special, and my husband and I are so glad we found them! Hunter took the time to learn about our music taste before the wedding, sending us a well-thought out survey about what music we wanted to play at different times. He balanced our must-play songs with guest requests and was wonderful at watching the dance floor and playing music for everyone! Nearly everyone there stayed dancing because of his help. He was also an incredible MC and kept us moving through speeches and other big announcements, which let us just enjoy the night. We highly recommend Aloha Event DJ!"
-Maddy + Max
"Hunter did an amazing job. Before the wedding, he was professional and comprehensive in working with us to understand the type of music we enjoyed, both via a detailed questionnaire and a call. In the call he made sure to understand correct pronunciation for all names which we appreciated.
On the night he was excellent. He did a great job of reading the room and welcoming requests (including some Aussie classics!), making sure that all of our guests had a wonderful night on the dance floor. Before we as the bride and groom arrived, he had made the effort to chat to our parents, ensuring that all generations were covered. Hunter was all round a fantastic DJ and MC - highly recommend him to anyone getting married or having an event in Hawaii."
-Lucy
"Hunter was very easy to work with and made our event his priority -- even on short notice. He took every measure to ensure that every single detail of our dream wedding became a reality. But he also had great suggestions that we hadn't thought of. He took a genuine interest in not only our event, but us as people. Hunter was very straightforward and transparent and there were no hidden surprises or costs. We highly recommend booking him. Also, Super super underrated quality-- He answers his phone and replies to emails immediately. Huge plus lol"

"We hired a different DJ at the start of my wedding planning, however I came across Aloha Event DJ on Instagram and was intrigued so I searched a little more and I liked what I saw so I eventually cancelled on our original DJ and went with Aloha Event DJ instead! Hunter was our DJ and our MC which is exactly what we wanted, instead of spending more money on two different services since we were on a tight budget. He was very accomodating and so friendly! He was very quick with responding and very thorough. I have never thought choosing music could be so difficult but he did make the entire process so much more easier. Played music for us at our initial meeting to get a taste of what kind of music my husband and I enjoyed, and I really did appreciate him taking the time to do that. My entire family danced all night long, and he took requests from our family with no problem! Even played some Filipino music haha! Nonetheless, Hunter was AWESOME and should we ever have another event that requires a DJ I will definitely be returning!"

"Without Hunter our wedding could have been a bit of a nightmare. Both my wife and myself were winging everything and had no idea on how to schedule a wedding or a reception. Hunter was our saving grace for this. Not only did he set up our complete and awesome playlist and requests, he also MC’d most of our wedding and kept everything on schedule and in order. Not only is he a DJ, he also has extensive knowledge and recommendations for wedding structure and planning. Hunter was absolutely amazing and I couldn’t have gotten luckier with a DJ for the wedding."
- Paul
"Aloha Event DJ was literally the perfect package! Hunter did an amazing job as both my DJ and MC as well as provide a fun photo booth for my guests. Hunter made the entire process so easy and stress-free with excellent communication from day one. He also had great ideas for wedding games, which my guests LOVED! Most importantly, Hunter did the most perfect job bringing my dream kpop wedding to life. He added in BTS songs throughout the wedding and it just made me the happiest BTS ARMY ever :) Overall, I would recommend Hunter and his team 1000%!"
-Chelsea
"Our reception hotel, Hilton Waikiki Beach, coordinated with DJ for us. We had to postpone our wedding for 2 years but they allowed us to reschedule. Dj Hunter Kwiatkowski planned online meeting for our reception time schedule to make everything clear and it helped us a lot!
On our wedding day, all of our guests had so much fun and I got amazing time at my own wedding reception more than I could ever imagine. Thank you so much Hunter to let us have awesome time! I am sure we are the lucky one to have you as our DJ Hunter!"
-Ayako
"Hunter is a very professional and knowledgeable DJ. He listened to the music choices we wanted and put them together in an awesome play list. I would highly recommend him."
- Maureen Lierman
"Hunter was an amazing wedding vendor. He communicated better than any other vendor and answered any questions we had almost immediately. It was a pleasure working with him. He helped us with so much not only with DJ service but also wedding planning advice in general. The other thing that really impressed us was how up front he was with pricing. We found that a lot of vendors would not give you a quote unless you met with them and or gave them a lot of personal information. Hunter was fair and honest. He did not take advantage of us just because we were planning a wedding. Although we had some great vendors Hunter was my favorite vendor to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ. I know he does other events too. I'm sure he is just as great with those as well.
We can't thank Hunter enough for his honesty, work ethic and the results he delivered. In the world of price gouging and greed that is the wedding industry Hunter was a breath of fresh air. If we were to do it all again we might have changed a few things with the experience we now have. I would not hesitate to book Hunter again and would recommend him to family, friends and YOU!"
Thanks again Hunter,

"I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Hunter. He was so great to work with! In the wedding planning phase he was super professional and responsive. He also has a really nice demeanor. During the wedding, he had THE BEST energy and mixed our playlists so well. The dance floor was packed pretty much the entire time. Hunter brought all this great energy but at the same time conveyed a “behind the scenes” vibe. He was the opposite of the obnoxious DJ who blathers on in the microphone and distracts from the wedding couple. Also, he has zero cheese vibe. Oh, and he has an excellent sound system which is kind of everything."
-Tracy
"My husband and I had a great experience working with Hunter during our wedding and the planning process. We relied on him to provide the sound system for our reception, the projector/screen for our slideshow, the photo booth (which was a big hit), and of course the music for our multiple special dances! He worked with us on our playlist and even provided my husband with a good mother/son song to dance too. His selection of songs during the dancing portion of the reception was spot on and people were dancing until the very end of the night. He was so easy to work with and reasonably priced. Would recommend to all my friends!"
-Jaclyn
"We are soooo happy we went with Aloha Events DJ/Hunter for our wedding at Kualoa Ranch. It is very obvious that Hunter loves his job and has a passion for music. We gave him a few guidelines for the vibe we wanted during our reception and he ABSOLUTELY delivered! We got tons of compliments on our DJ all night, and after the wedding. Added bonus - Hunter is incredibly professional and has great vibes!
Also (I didn’t realize how important this is for a DJ until after our ceremony), Hunter could not have timed our “introduction” to the wedding reception with the music drop in our intro song any better. We chose a non-traditional intro song, and it was obvious Hunter had practiced to get the announcements at the perfect length to match the beat drop. It was perfect!!"
-Haley
"Hunter was absolutely what we wanted when we booked a DJ for our wedding! He listened to what kind of style of music we wanted and he delivered! He’s great at communicating and listening to what you want. He made every important moment that night without flaws! He let our guests make requests and everyone danced the entire night. He’s also very flexible- our dance floor was outside and it rained twice to which he helped move the lighting inside and then when our guests wanted to party on the muddy dance floor he changed everything back. He also gave out excellent advice for the night - where to throw the bouquet toss, etc. definitely would 100000x times recommend Hunter to anyone wanting a fantastic DJ. He’s also a great, easy to chat to guy who’s energy brings a sense of calm to your wedding day. Thanks again Hunter :)"
-Erin
"I am so glad we hired Hunter for our wedding! He did a great job incorporating different types of music, while still getting everyone out on the dance floor. We filled out a music survey and met with him twice on the phone to talk about our preferences. We received a lot of compliments on the music. We had to postpone our wedding twice, but Hunter was very professional and accommodating throughout the whole process. His pricing is fair and straightforward. I would definitely recommend him!"
-Ayla
"Hunter is amazing. He met with us before hand and was able to figure out what we wanted for our wedding. We went through spotify playlists and he helped come up with suggestions. Even during the wedding when things needed to change he was on top of it and knew exactly what to do. The atmosphere that he created was great and it made our wedding even special. Definitely would hire him again for any party we would have."
-Haley
"Hunter was so great to work with - he kept the party going with the jams, he listened to and understood all of our requests/visions, and he was so personable. Hunter also responded super quickly to all of our questions and provided really helpful suggestions. Having a good DJ/emcee is such a significant factor in having a smooth and fun wedding, and Hunter was everything we could want! We’re super happy with him and thankful to him for making our wedding a great party. 10/10 would recommend."
-H. Leong
"Hunter was so great to work with! My wedding was a hit - thanks to his excellent DJ and emcee skills. He made sure the timing of the music was perfect for every part of our special day and played all the songs we wanted. Hunter was extremely accommodating and a great listener. My wedding was near a hotel, and even the hotel guests were dancing at their balcony! I appreciated that Hunter as an emcee helped facilitate our program smoothly and was well prepared. I'll never forget my wedding because it was an awesome party. I highly recommend Aloha Event DJ!"
-Lauren
"The BEST DJ in Hawaii! Look no further if your debating between others…
My wife and I got married on Oahu at Kualoa Ranch’s Jamanji site in January of 2022. Hunter from Aloha Event DJ was who we ended up choosing to be our DJ, and boy are we so glad we chose him! Everything was handled professionally and he was so friendly and accommodating. We’re from the Midwest and LOVE to dance and after attending many, many weddings throughout the years this was by far the best DJ/MC service we’ve experienced. Hunter kept the dance floor LIT 🔥 all night, put up with our random requests, and went out of his way to ensure everyone was having the best time. He was professional, courteous, timely and even handle the ceremony, dinner, etc perfectly. We cannot recommend him enough and if you’re honestly looking elsewhere for DJ services we strongly encourage you to go with Aloha Event DJ. We’re so glad that we did and had the time of our lives!"
-Adam
"Hunter was an awesome DJ for our wedding! He was accommodating for everything that we needed, very organized and professional. He was by far our easiest vendor to work with while planning our wedding. We left a lot of the music decisions up to him, and he made excellent choices to fit the mood of the wedding. He was also very accommodating for last minute changes. Would 100% book again!"
-Justin
"Hunter and his company were fantastic from start to finish. We could not have made a better choice. He was helpful from the first time we reached out to him months before our wedding. Our wedding reception was a great success on large part due to his fantastic service and excellent work."
-David
"Hunter is awesome and very personable! Very organized and has great communication with clients. Arrives on time and makes sure that everything is going well through the event. Highly recommend for any type of event needing a DJ!!"
-Seth
"Looking for a DJ for your wedding? Hunter is your guy! He ended up being perfect for what we were looking for. He took his time to face time us to discuss what music to be played. Didn't even know that it was so much work just to get a list together but he did the job perfect. He was acted as our MC which was perfect for our budget. I would highly recommend Hunter to play for your wedding."
-Julian
"An incredible DJ whom it was a pleasure working with. Very friendly and accommodating, he even found and played international music from bands we enjoyed from around the world. He walked us through the entire process and even vetted our place list to determine what worked best for our special occasion. We feel very fortunate that we found him when looking for a DJ"
-Tatsu
From our first communication with Hunter he was always punctual with his responses and the easiest part of our wedding, without any doubt. We both knew what we wanted for music, we just wanted a DJs flair and Hunter went above and beyond the night of our reception. Great guy, easy to work with, I honestly could not recommend him anymore for any occasion!
-Jason
"Hunter from Aloha Event DJ is not only a great DJ, but also a great person. Our wedding was unfortunately scheduled during the pandemic and Hunter worked with us through 4 venue changes and two years. During this time, he was always professional and helpful, especially when mandates in Hawaii were constantly changing. We especially appreciated that he took the time to get to know us as people to make sure he provided us with music that matched our personalities and preferences. We highly recommend Aloha Event DJ for DJ and emcee services!"
-Elise
"Hunter was incredible at our wedding! He was very delightful to talk with on every encounter as we prepared for our big day. On the day of our wedding he was on time, and set up in advance, with everything our package included. (Two set ups, ceremony and reception) The music was played at a nice level before and after the ceremony not to take away attention or distract from my wife and I. During the reception Hunter played a great list of songs and kept our guests moving!"

"We had Aloha Event DJ for our music and emcee services for our wedding this past May - and we were SO glad to have Hunter as one of our vendors! We met Hunter at a wedding expo and knew he would be great to work with, even from the first meeting. Hunter is incredibly personable and helpful. He was always quick to respond and kept me on track with music and the program amidst the chaos of the rest of the wedding planning. He made several music recommendations for us, specific to our taste in music, and created a perfect atmosphere with lighting for the dancing portion of the program. He even created a customized mix for our first dance! He was always incredibly courteous as well, even when I made several changes to the music. It was great having him emcee so that we did not have to hire someone else for that. If in doubt, go with Aloha Event DJ! I cannot recommend Hunter enough!!"

"We are so happy to have chosen Hunter to be our wedding DJ. Hunter's passion for music and of bringing joy to others through music is apparent in his business. During our first face to face meeting he let us tell him exactly what we wanted and even though we were a little lost at first, as a couple with varied music tastes, Hunter was able to narrow down some ideas for us. He helped us imagine the tone we wanted to set for each portion of the wedding and on the day, executed it all perfectly! He was able to read the energy of the guests and played music accordingly. Both me and my husband had special surprises for each other and Hunter helped us each to pull them off with ease. Not only was he professional, on time, and quick to respond to emails, he’s a really nice guy! Thank you Hunter for being a part of our wedding and making the day one we won’t forget!"

"Hunter is amazing! We chose to work with him as our wedding MC & DJ for our entire event & he was worth every penny! He's very knowledgeable at what he does and he even recommended songs for every segment we didn't know we needed (i.e. cake cutting, bouquet toss, etc.) We got so many compliments from our guests about him, much so that even some of them want to hire him as their DJ for their own wedding! Highly recommend Hunter!"

"Hunter was wonderful for our wedding! We had an original wedding date in September 2020 but that obviously didn't happen. We changed our wedding date TWO MORE TIMES and Hunter was so accommodating each time. Once the final date was approaching he guided us through each part of the day and the music, made excellent song suggestions and even made the timeline clearer for us. On the wedding day Hunter was friendly and despite the small group everyone had a great time. He nailed the vibe (millennial wedding with lots of throw backs). Couldn't have been happier :D"

"Greatest wedding DJ we could have ever asked for!!Thanks so much Aloha Event DJ!!! Hunter was the greatest wedding DJ we could have ever asked for!! He was super friendly and incredibly intuitive about the kinds of songs our wedding would need. He was also detail-oriented around the timeline of requested songs to play throughout our wedding night. For instance, we gave him a list of artists and playlists of 3 songs chosen by each of our friends and family. He made the atmosphere pop for each part of the ceremony! (No pun intended) We danced all night long. It was unforgettable and from many of our friends and family "the best wedding they've ever been to." This couldn't have been done without his skills and professionalism.The added touch was his MC services which helped keep us on track throughout the night. We are forever grateful for Hunter’s contributions on our special day!!!"

"Working with Hunter was great! He played exactly what we wanted and took the time to listen to the type of music we were thinking of having at our wedding. He helped us put on an awesome party and kept our guests dancing all night long! Would hire him again in a heartbeat!"

"We were so fortunate to be able to have our wedding before the pandemic hit. Hunter from Aloha Event DJ was absolutely perfect for our wedding! The music during the ceremony was exactly what we wanted. We found music we liked and Hunter was able to edit and adjust it to fit our ceremony. He did our ceremony music, set up equipment for our live entertainment during our cocktail hour, and then kept everyone out on the dance floor all night at the reception! He was also a great emcee which was a huge relief to have and very helpful to keep our whole program moving. All of our guests raved about how much fun they had and enjoyed every moment of it! We had a GREAT time at our wedding and can’t thank Hunter enough for keeping everyone on the dance floor all night! We also share a pineapple connection and love that Aloha Event DJ has one incorporated into their logo as well!"
