Hawaiian Luau’s are already in full swing, here at Harmony Entertainment!

With all the stores gearing up for summer, it’s not very hard to start planning your very own Hawaiian Luau.  Almost everywhere you turn the stores are selling decorations, party favors, cute Hawaiian outfits, and men’s Aloha shirts, just so you can prepare to host your very own Luau. But you cannot forget about the entertainment.

Hawaiian Luau entertainment is very popular during summer time, in New York. Not so unusual with beach life, the Hamptons, and all those back yard pool parties. You don’t have to look towards the Pacific Ocean to find wonderful Polynesian entertainment for your party. Harmony Entertainment offers a wide variety of services, one of which is, Hawaiian Luau entertainment.  We can help make your event special by providing your entertainment. We have Hawaiian and Polynesian dancers, our Fire Knife dancer is from Samoa, and of course the wonderfully melodious Hawaiian music which makes you just want to get on the plane and go there!.  We have several packages to choose from. You may want a Trio or Quartet to play music for your listening or dancing pleasure. They are muti-talented musicians and play all stles and genres. How about our DJ / LIVE.  Our DJ will provide music for your party-goers to dance their tribal dances, and he plays guitar, and Tahitian drums during the show itself.  It’s your call …. Your make the choice.

Call us today for more information on Hawaiian Luau’s in New York and ask about our Hawaiian Luau caterer too.  516-756-5637

TODAY I got a call for a wrestler.  I can’t mention his name – but ….
HE HAS A VERY… FAMOUS… NAME!

One of our clients, a Nursing Home Facility in Long Island has a Children’s Unit. A YOUNG BOY THERE is registered with Make A Wish Foundation.  He has taken a turn downward in his health.  The Director of Recreation and the Nursing Staff called to ask if I had any way to contact a wrestler.  This child would celebrate his 14th birthday tomorrow, 4/17/09, and his desire was to meet this wrestler. So far, it had not happened.  I said, I had never dealt with wrestlers, but there is a first time for everything.  I Googled his name and came up with the Wrestling Headquarters based in Connecticut.  Made a phone call and spoke to a wonderful Rep there. She notified me that the wrestlers could not visit every child who asked, and he was presently touring Europe for the next few weeks and is therefore, unavailable.

But, if I fax her a letter on my stationary, she would overnight a package of pictures, posters, and other information regarding this named wrestler.  I presented my case. This child would turn 14 tomorrow, he is very sick, and has taken a turn for the worse. He is registered with Make A Wish Foundation, but nothing has happened so far.  Would there be any way possible to have this wrestler CALL the child on the phone?  The Rep kindly stated that she could not make that promise, however, she would try to notify him, and then the ball was in his court.  I thanked her and said, whatever happens, I believe God is in control!  Not two hours later, a very excited Recreation Director called to inform me that this wrestler had called the child….from EUROPE! He was so excited,  and ecstatic, and so was his mother.  They could not believe Harmony Entertainment had done this for him.  The Nursing Staff was so grateful and excited for him.  He then asked for a young DJ under 25 yrs. old to play for his birthday party tomorrow afternoon.  We provided him with a DJ with lighting.  I asked Nursing to darken the windows so the lights would have a greater effect.  Harmony came through once again.  Our motto or tag line is:   Bringing the vision of your party to LIFE!
Once again – Harmony pulled through!

IT’S WEDDING SEASON , AND HARMONY ENTERTAINMENT WANTS TO BE A PART OF YOUR MOST WONDERFUL DAY!

We meet with many young and eager couples who wish for us to create the most beautiful music and ambiance for their most special wedding day: Oftentimes, they end up asking us for guidance as to what songs to play, etc.  We quickly remind them that this is THEIR special day. The music that they choose should truly represent their love and their experiences together as a couple. Here are a few pointers to help you get started with choosing your wedding music:

1.) This is important: create a list of music that you DON’T want played.  This will help your wedding DJ a great deal: BE VERY CLEAR about it, and perhaps even put it in writing.  The last thing you want is an inappropriate song being played, or perhaps one that may evoke bad memories!

2.) Ask your wedding DJ for a list of songs that they have available: Oftentimes they may have a presentable folder, but if you can preview it prior to meeting with them, it would be ideal and save you a great deal of time.

3.) Think about your reception and any ‘lag’ time that there may be prior to your entrance. Make certain that this space is filled with music that suits your audience.

4.) Also, if you anticipate your ‘toasting’ to take a while, make certain that your DJ has ample music to play (without repeating songs…)

5.) BE very clear about which songs should be played and when.  You are paying these folks, and obviously, need to be assertive in this respect.

We hope this helps as you plan your special day: If you are seeking a wedding DJ in the Long Island and Greater New York area, call Harmony at 516.756.5637.
