Hawaii’s Wedding Professionals in HD Show #212 Royal Weddings By Lavender and Royal Entertainment

Darcie Wharton of Royal Weddings by Lavender
Gabe Gongob of Royal Entertainment

Repeats:  Sunday, November 20 at 1pm

Host Kahu Kalehua Featheran begins this show with acknowledgements to photographers Dave Miyamoto & Company, LiquidLightImages and Hawaiianpix and videographers Stuart Featheran, Jr and Propeller USA – members of honeylook.com; a one stop virtual wedding and event resource center.

It’s a windy day at Kawaikui Beach when Kalehua welcomes Darcie Wharton of Royal Weddings By Lavender and Royal Sweets & Treats.  Among other topics, Darcie presents two major reasons why a bride should hire a wedding coordinator or planner like herself.  First, by hiring a professional wedding coordinator, everyone can enjoy the special day, including friends and relatives who would otherwise be helping with your wedding.  Second, there is so much information out there on the internet, it pats to have a professional wedding coordinator help you find the right person to handle every wedding service and product need instead of the bride sorting through all of that information herself.  Darcie likes to earn the trust of every couple that she works with so when the wedding day arrives, they can relax and enjoy it to the fullest.

Royal Weddings By Lavender also offers Royal Sweets & Treats – a buffet of sweets, which can also include healthy offerings like yogurt, coated pretzels and dried fruits…a great alternate to candies!

Returning from break, Kahu Kalehua reminds viewers to call Kahala Limo and Platinum Limousine for your limousine and transportation needs; they are also members of honeylook.com.

On the second interview, Kahu Kalehua greets Gabe Gongob of Royal Entertainment, who explains that “Royal” is in Darcie and his business names because they want to treat their clients like royalty.  With close to 20 years experience as a DJ and boasting a library of 100,000 songs, Gabe is able to provide almost any song that a client can request from all over the world.

He loves it when everyone gets up onto the dance floor and uses his many years of experience and music savvy to pick just the right tunes to get everyone up and dancing.  Gabe also can double as emcee, and he can provide all of the equipment, lighting and set up to create just the right musical ambiance for any event.

The second segment features Mila Troutman of Milaniko wedding apparel.  Situated at the very beginning of Kalakaua Avenue, Milaniko offers European fashions of traditional Ukranian quality.  A tailor with 20 years of experience, Mila has also passed on her fashion sense to son, Niko or Nick who is currently in charge of design production of the wedding gowns in the Ukraine.  Made by hand from start to finish, Milaniko’s wedding gowns are made with Italian satin, French lace and hand beading and embroidery.  All of the gowns are made to order and prices are extremely affordable – you have to watch this show to hear the price ranges and once you do, a visit to Milaniko will be on the top of your list.  For brides who wish to rent their wedding gowns, Milaniko also offers this service and gowns can be rented for 3 days.  Milaniko is working on a tuxedo line made with 100% wool and Italian fabrics, with the largest and most reputable Turkish textile manufacturer and businesses who are interested in purchasing wedding gowns or tuxedos in bulk can call Mila to make an appointment to discuss this opportunity. 

Kalehua’s third guest is Gilbert Magbual, owner and DJ of N-D Mixx Productions, a family-run business, with wife Fran and his daughter and son all helping out.  2011 marks Gil’s 20th successful year in the DJ business.  His vast library of songs numbers 75,000 and if his client wants a song that he doesn’t have, Gil will go out of his way to find that song for his client.  Gil can set up sound and lighting for an intimate group of 20 guests to large wedding receptions and corporate functions of 2,000 guests or more.  Gil likes to have his bride and groom be the star at their own wedding, so his motto is “your music, your way”.

A frequent backdrop for the Hawaii’s Wedding Professionals interviews, today Host Kahu Kalehua Featheran welcomes Sales Manager Steven Nagamine and Merri Ford, Event Services Manager of Koolau Ballrooms and Conference Center.  As viewers see photos of their many ceremony and reception venues, Steve and Merri introduces their newest venue – the championship 15th tee is now available for booking for small intimate wedding ceremonies for 12 to 15 guests.  With a spectacular 360 degree view from the Koolau Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, this is certainly a venue to remember.  Steven also introduced a new Alii Package with upgraded services and amenities, including hotel arrangements!  Easily accessible via the Pali, Likelike or H3 Freeway, with lots of free parking, Koolau Ballrooms and Conference Center is a great venue for weddings, proms, birthday parties and business meetings and events. 

Bella Rosa provided the floral arrangements for the Koolau Ballrooms interview and are now guests on the second half of the show.  With Best Bridal Hawaii’s Ocean Crystal Chapel as the venue, Isabel Lambert and Daysi Valiente are joined by Janna modeling a wedding gown from Milaniko (Wedding Apparel) and Richard Li of Kahala Limo modeling a tuxedo from Charity Formals.

In Hawaii since 1985, Bella Rosa was the first importer of Ecuadorian roses to the Islands; Ecuador is the #1 rose grower in the world by virtue of having 50 degree temperature all year round, the perfect climate for roses.   As viewers see samples of their many bouquets, arrangements and floral decorations designed by Daysi for weddings and other events, Isabel explains that Bella Rosa has a huge variety of flowers and many different colors of roses, and how roses are grown, shipped and handled so the recipient can enjoy them for a long time.
