Sounds of Sebastian, LLC

Wailuku, HI
  • Ceremony only
  • Starts at $375

Through faith and hard work, Maui born local sensation Derick Sebastian continues to live his dream as an accomplished international ‘ukulele virtuoso. He's shared the stage with singer/songwriter pop star Jason Mraz, the melodic Raining Jane, powerhouse Trombone Shorty, country star icons Thompson Square and Sara Evans, and R&B sensations, Boyz II Men and Brian McKnight, and a highlighted private performance and ukulele lesson with Oprah Winfrey. Derick also has notable performances at many major sporting events and toured full-fledged around the globe, continuing his dedication to inspire lives through his music.

What can we say other than we absolutely love Derick! He is the best! We eloped due to Covid, and then about nine months later we did our family and friends ceremony. Derick graciously officiated both ceremonies, and 100% customized his officiating to fit our wants. His personality and presentation shine as he is a natural, sincere, and engaging. Then, there are his musical talents he incorporates into the ceremonies as an option as well. Simply said, he is hands-down the best at what he does with the ukulele! Derick is now part of the family as far as we're concerned! He's the best!

Awarded Best of Zola
DO NOT HESITATE to book The Hook Club! Words cannot express how incredible their performance was... you had to be there. We had many musicians in the crowd who were blown away with the talent on the stage. Not only did they display excellent musicianship, but their energy was unparalleled. They got the crowd on their feet over and over again, myself and my blisters included. The main singers came out into the dance floor during the bangers, which our guests loved. Each singer had a repertoire that perfectly suited their talents, and we loved how they exploited that. It was really fun to see them indulging in off-the-charts vocalizing. (And also rapping that had me shook!) We truly felt like they were having as great a time as we were. Jesse served as an excellent MC, introducing our toasts in a humorous and timely manner. Our communication was great, including on the spot decisions (we asked for an extra 15 minute break during dinner, because when they were playing, no one could stop dancing!). Jesse was calm, professional, and light-hearted. I was very impressed by how he carried himself. The planning process we used was thorough and simple, including only two zoom meetings. The Hook Club has tons of songs to choose from, and can probably learn anything you throw their way. Another huge bonus of The Hook Club is that they have so many members, so they can cobble a group together that best suits your desires. Again, I cannot recommend this group highly enough. I feel like they truly made the night, and we are indebted to them! Many guests said it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding! Hiring this group might have been our best investment of the night. Props and endless thanks to everyone who tried so hard for us.

Awarded Best of Zola
We saw Golden Bell perform at a wedding in Calistoga and immediately knew we HAD to have them for our own wedding in Lake Tahoe! They were an absolute HIT with our guests! Our meetings leading up to the wedding were very informative and Chris has such a calming presence throughout the planning process. Wedding day was seamless, Golden Bell took care of microphones for us and our officiant and the sound quality for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception was perfect. Once the reception dancing started, Golden Bell read the crowd so well - playing a variety to please all age groups and coming down into the crowd with the saxophone and trombone! The drummer was amazing too! Such a talented group! All the pros of a DJ and a live band combined into one super fun group. 10/10 would recommend.

I can't say enough good things about Dan from NY Wedding DJ! Right from the first consultation my partner and I were met with a friendly attitude and attention to detail, asking specifics about what we were hoping for during the reception. I've been to so many weddings where a mediocre DJ makes the reception drag on and on, but Dan's choice of music were totally catered to us and our type of crowd and it made the party bopping all the way until the last dance! Additionally, as an LGBT couple, we felt incredibly supported by Dan from NY Wedding DJ, and felt he offered a very inclusive atmosphere for us to be our comfortable selves around. I wish we could do it all over again just to have Dan throw another perfect reception!!

Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

Cuarteto Guataca is AMAZING. Every single member of this group is an absolute joy to work with, and their talent is beyond words! Cuarteto was our wedding band, and I don’t think anyone sat down the entire reception! Hire them now!!
