Malaya performed at our Filipino-​Indian fusion wedding last July 26 and they did an amazing job! We are so glad that we hired them! They were very professional and our guests loved them! Jonathan was very helpful throughout the whole planning process. We will definitely recommend them to our family and friends! :)

Malaya was part of our reception entertainment, and they did an amazing job performing some of our favorite Filipino dances. We were incredibly lucky to meet Annalisa, head of Malaya, who even took the time to teach us a few dance moves! With her help, we were able to surprise our guests with a choreographed section of the Tinikling. We had so much fun dancing with them and all our guests enjoyed their performance.
