Testimonial for Chef Kimo and Kimo’s Akamai Catering
Function: Wedding - June 5th, 2010.
We were introduced to Chef Kimo three months before our wedding date; we hadn’t planned to have a caterer but figured it wouldn’t hurt to see what he had... to say. Little did we know, it was to be the beginning of a wonderful adventure, a treasured friendship and an amazing wedding.
It doesn’t matter whether you are on a tight budget or are looking to have the wedding of the century, we can unconditionally recommend Chef Kimo and know that he will prove to be an invaluable member of your celebration.
When you hire Chef Kimo, you are getting much more than a caterer. He is very skilled at almost everything wedding related, and if there is something that for some reason he can’t, or doesn’t have time to do, then it is guaranteed he knows someone who will not only exceed expectations, but do it for a great price as well. In addition to doing an incredible job at catering, Chef Kimo also stepped up as a full on wedding planner/coordinator, personnel manager, florist, decorator, equipment organizer, confidant and life saver.
We had originally planned to organize all of our wedding ourselves, in order to save money, but things were soon piling up and overwhelming us. We contacted Chef Kimo to see if he would be able to help us out with the budget we had to work with. We soon found out that not only could he provide a wonderful menu, but also help us save money with our equipment rental, flowers and staffing. He spent huge amounts of time working closely with us leading up to the wedding, making sure everything was exactly as we wanted, answering any questions or concerns and showing us ways we could save money. We were so impressed by his attention to detail, fresh ideas, designer’s eye, “can do” attitude and loving nature. He genuinely made us feel that our wedding was as important to him as it was to us.
On the day we continued to be impressed by the way everything was pulled together. The food was delicious and beautifully presented (everyone commented on how tasty it was). The flowers and decorations were stunning and exactly what we had imagined. The staff was wonderful, friendly, well presented and a joy to have around. Chef and his staff arrived early and stayed with us all day and night making sure that everything was both set up and stripped down properly. We didn’t have to lift a finger. Having Chef Kimo around was a huge blessing for us. It was so good to have a single point of reference for us and for everyone else, and to be confident that Chef would make decisions in our best interest.
We can’t express enough how thankful we are for Chef Kimo. He took the wedding we could afford and turned it into the wedding we thought we could only dream about. We absolutely recommend that you take the time to talk to him because we know that whatever function you may be holding, he will go above and beyond to make it exactly what you desire. His skills as a chef and caterer are of the highest standard and, having worked in event management, his abilities as an event coordinator are the best we have had the pleasure of working with. We met him because we were looking for someone to help with catering and ended up with an amazing wedding and a wonderful friend.
Kind Regards,
Ben Williams & Ruth Balangcad
