Videography company, Propeller USA is Kahu Kalehua Featheran’s first guest and they filmed and edited their own interview segment at Best Bridal Hawaii’s Paradise Cove Crystal Chapel.  Albert Olsson and James Yehambaran were the on-camera guests and their colleagues were behind the cameras, using their equipment, talents and expertise to show you a sample of their work via the interview.

Founded 12 years ago, Propeller USA is strong in the Japanese wedding industry and has gradually become found a place in the local wedding scene as well.  For the destination couples, Propeller USA’s staff are an international mix of people who speak Swedish, Japanese, Malaysian, Spanish languages in addition to English.  Important to them is to get to know the couple they are filming and to video tape and more importantly, edit the footage into a style that the couple chooses for their special day. 

$69.95 will get you properly fitted and attired for any formal event at Charity Formals.  That’s right, you get the coat, pants, shirt, half or full back vest, accessories, shoes, tax and damage waiver all included, no hidden fees.  And on top of that, all proceeds from the rental goes to benefit Abilities Unlimited, a non-profit group that maintains a training program to support people with disabilities and help them to create a better life for themselves.

Just a block from Ala Moana Shopping Center, Sales Manager Maria Orta offers a variety of different styles of tuxedos, which viewers can see, with sizes 3 to 18 for children and up to 64 (or 5XL) for men.  Destination couples can call Maria to order their tuxedo style and go to their closest formal wear store to get measurements to send to Maria.  As Representative Violet Shimoko elaborates, Charity Formals foundation is the 60 years of experience and expertise that came from the tradition of Hale Niu, a well known island formal wear shop.

In a departure from his usual format, Host Kahu Kalehua Featheran introduces his first guest, Brandy Sinoto (nutrition and weight loss coach) of Wellnessbridge and then turns the interview segment over to her.  Brandy, in turn, introduces Mapu Dillner, one of her clients, who has an amazing story to share with the viewing audience.  Tune in to hear how Mapu, who has tried almost every weight loss program before, lost 70 pounds and went from a size 18 to a size 4 in 6 short months with the Wellnessbridge program.  She is now feeling fit, looking good and in great health.  Hear what it was that inspired Mapu to enter this program and Brandy’s challenge to the viewing audience:  “do not surrender the idea that you can be the weight you were in high school”.

In the segment segment, Kalehua talks with Aaron Bernard of LiquidLightImages Photography on the grounds of the JW Marriott Ihilani Resort and Spa.  Originally from the Big Island, Aaron left the islands when he joined the Marine Corps.  He took up photography while living in San Diego and has been shooting pictures for 17 years.  Aaron’s philosophy is to provide a variety of styles of photography since today’s bride is more fashionable and no one style suits everyone.  In addition to talking with each new client (both via Skype and in person), Aaron also offers this advice to wedding couples – to have a wedding coordinator, even if only for the day of the wedding, so that they can relax and enjoy their day – and this will be reflected in smiles and having fun in their wedding photos.  Aaron also offers post wedding photos – and it’s a great idea – tune in to hear why.

Beautiful music greets viewers as Host, Kahu Kalehua Featheran welcomes harpist Pumehana Davis Wadsworth to Hawaii’s Wedding Professionals.  Pumehana began playing the harp as a young child and now 30 years later, her repertoire ranges from traditional songs usually playing during weddings to more modern selections.  When asked “why a harp for weddings”, Pumehana replies that the harp is classy and elegant, and it can be played on the beach as well as in chapels.

Destination brides can find her on the internet and send in an inquiry on her contact page.  Upon receiving the inquiry, Pumehana will send them a song list and the dialogue continues to the wedding day.  Although Pumehana would like to have 6 months advanced notice of a booking, upon availability, she has also been able to provide services with just 2 days notice.

Kalehua’s second guests are Rick and Mila Troutman of Milaniko.  Named for Mom Mila and son Niko, this wedding apparel shop carries a line of wedding gowns with a European flair.  With a manufacturing facility in the Ukraine, Milaniko has a proprietary line of well made, top quality European couture bridal gowns that look expensive but are very moderate and well under the market price.  Much attention is paid to details such as beading, lace work and the selection of fabric.  The gowns are what Rick calls “heirloom quality” – made to be worn for generations and passed on from mother to daughter.  The dresses are fashioned with corset lacing, so they are 2 sizes in either direction and require very little, if any alterations.

Milaniko has an online catalog from which selections can be made, and if a bride sees a gown she likes, but wants some changes made to it to fit her taste and style, this can be done in a very short time, when compared to other manufacturers.  Milaniko also carries suits and tuxedos made in Turkey from the finest wool fabric.  So, they are light weight and perfectly suited for the Hawaiian climate.

In the second interview, Kalehua is joined by Stevie Lynn Kumia and Kristy Watanabe of Best Bridal Hawaii.  With the exquisite Ocean Crystal Chapel in the background, Best Bridal Hawaii offers destination and local wedding couples both indoor and outdoor venues in their 7 wedding locations.  This is where the bride decides – from wedding packages to ala carte choices, from a preferred vendor list to bringing their own vendors into the planning, Best Bridal Hawaii is ready to assist bridal couples in planning every step of their wedding day.

Can you really call it work if you get to wear aloha shirts and shorts on the job and your office is Sandy Beach?  Well you can if you’re David Kupono Fong and Host Kahu Kalehua Featheran!

Sandy Beach is where Kupono and his beautiful wife, Ciera got married in a sunrise ceremony 2 years ago, and did their first live stream to family and friends away from Hawaii.  Encouraged by the feedback of family and friends, they took a leap of faith and started Stream It Live Online.  Their clients include wedding couples, people celebrating special events, military personnel away from home, and businesses.  The broadcast being filmed by battery operated, mobile equipment can be seen by anyone around the world who has internet access.  It can be pass-word protected or not and the exciting news is that people with Android or Apple IOS devices can also pick up the broadcast on their cell phones!

Kahu Kalehua’s second guest is long-time friend and business partner, Eileen Abe of Mana’o I’o (fine hand crafted products for weddings and all occasions) and Italian Greyhound, Roo.  Why would a bride order a silk bouquet instead of fresh flowers?  It’s so they can toss their fresh floral bouquet at the reception and keep their silk bouquet as a momento of their special day.  And, if they want a special gift or wish to add tradition to their event, a kahili is a good idea.  Often connected in the past with royalty, kahilis could be identified by design with different families.  Eileen creates the kahilis in traditional or updated designs to fit every occasion.

The Academy Art Center serves as the background for Kahu Kalehua Featheran’s interview of D.r Melanie Tantisira and Geri Berger.  Graduating second in her class at UH Med School, Dr. Tantisira began her practice in optometry and is now expanding to include cosmetic facial treatments.  Hear her good friend and patient, Geri Berger, Mrs. Hawaii International share her experience of skin rejuvenation (to remove smile lines) as being gentle and painless.  Photo shop is an option when a bride or member of her family would like a wrinkle line or two removed from those wedding photographs, but consider cosmetic facial treatments when you want those facial lines smoothed out for real!

Kahu Kalehua Featheran finds himself on the other end of the microphone when he is interviewed by Raymond Donato of the JW Marriott Ihilani Resort and Spa.  In reel life, viewers know that Kahu Kalehua is host and producer of Hawaii’s Wedding Professionals, but in real life, he is a minister, musician and entrepreneur with his latest venture being a wedding resource center called honeylook.com.  As Kahu Kalehua describes the typical wedding service provided by Weddings By Kalehua, photos and videos show actual weddings that he has performed.  Hear Kahu Kalehua’s refreshing approach and thoughts that he shares with his wedding couples.
