“ We were incredibly fortunate to have Keane and Sandra perform at our wedding, and I cannot express how much their presence elevated our special day. From the outset, they were attentive to our preferences, ensuring that we felt involved in every aspect of the song selection process. Their willingness to offer suggestions and truly listen to our story made us feel valued and understood.
One of my biggest concerns was ensuring that our dances-the father-daughter, mother-son, and first dance -flowed seamlessly without any awkward moments. Keane and Sandra went above and beyond to help us plan the perfect sequence, making me feel completely at ease with sharing my ideas.
Having a live band at our wedding was an absolute game-changer. The atmosphere they created, especially during the ceremony, was nothing short of magical. Their talent and passion for what they do was evident in how they performed.
I cannot recommend Keane and Sandra highly enough. Thank you, Keane and Sandra, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.”

“ Keane and Sandra are the best vendors we had at our wedding. This power couple singing duo, are truly spectacular!
They played at our outdoor wedding at Lanikuhonua during cocktail hour in January. It was beautiful, and guests kept coming up to us during and after the wedding, raving about how beautiful the live music is!
Keane and Sandra were so easy to work with. Quick communicators, flexible and extremely knowledgable. They made the process so easy and seamless (which is rare in the wedding planning process)
I would recommend them to any family/friend! You definitely won’t regret hiring them for your next event. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I would give them more than 5 stars if I could.”

“ When my husband Noelito and I were deciding on what song I should walk to down the aisle, we already knew we wanted it to be live music performed by Cory, Valerie and Vichelle. We loved their rendition of “Marry Me” so much, we decided to ask them to perform throughout our entire ceremony! They performed not only our procession but led us into one of our most favorite parts of the wedding, a song of worship. Their beautiful music made the moment that much sweeter, and it will forever be a moment my husband and I will remember the rest of our lives.
They went above and beyond any and all expectations we had. They were very accommodating, very flexible, and were easy to discuss logistics. It’s obvious that they are very talented but they are also some of the most kindhearted and giving people you’ll ever meet.
We are beyond thankful that we chose them to be vendors on our special day. We loved every moment with them and couldn’t recommend them enough! If you’re considering hiring live music for your wedding, they are the ones!!”

“Keane and Sandra have been friends of mine for a decade plus. My wife and I have always known that they are both deeply talented in their craft, but beyond that, they are two of the most thoughtful and caring individuals. That care comes off in all that they do, which we experienced on our wedding day.
We asked them to sing and play for our ceremony. As we walked down the aisle, the beautiful playing and singing created such an incredible moment because they knew how special those songs were to us and to our entire wedding day. Keane and Sandra helped create such a memorable moment.
They are also so easy to work with, and we have no worries leading up to that moment because both put in so much time connecting with us throughout the process. We are forever grateful!! If you are looking for someone to help create these memorable moments on your wedding day, please consider Keane and Sandra!!”

“Cory played the keyboard for our wedding ceremony. We chose two songs - one for the bride and one for the rest of the wedding party - and he learned both in less than a day! The transition between the two songs was seamless and his music set the perfect tone for our ceremony.
Not only is he extremely talented, but he went above and beyond to make our wedding special. He and Val were helpful in assisting us with sound equipment and even came to our rehearsal to ensure everything ran smoothly.
We would recommend them for any special event! There is no one else we would trust more to capture our story through music.”

“Thank you so much Keane and Sandra for everything! We are more than happy with the performance of these two professionals! From set up to playing music, they made our wedding that much more special!
Anyone that is unsure of whether or not to have a band at your wedding, you should do it and go with River + Light Collective. They are so easy to work with, they answered all our questions in a timely manner and coordinated EVERYTHING. They were able to set up behind the scenes and were promptly ready to meet our strict timeline.
When it was their turn to perform, they nailed it. We sent them a list of songs and they incorporated it into the playlist and it was smooth. The song list flowed so naturally, which wasn't easy considering our song selection.
All we can say now is thank you for being a part of our special day. We wouldn't want to have anyone else performing at such an important event in our lives!”
