Unforgettable parties offer guests something different delights and inspires joy. Haikuists (213-633-7380) offer an innovative service of live personalized typewriter poetry. It’s an interactive entertainment option that results in a treasured keepsake.
Creating meaningful conversation between guests is an art form, and party planners are well aware of how key this is to the success of their events. Awkward introductions, guests gazing vacantly at the canopies, preoccupied with their phones or worse, the door. Sure, they’ll loosen up after a few, or several drinks, but that can't be all a party relies on to warm things up. If you want to throw a truly magnificent, memorable, and creative party that will wow your guests from the get-go, these performance poets have just the answer!
The writers will set up a 'FREE HAIKU' stand. The sign and vintage manual typewriters draw guests in. The haiku encounter is sure to bring guests alive from the start, as poets will ask them for a topic--any topic--and then compose personalized poems on the spot in mere minutes. The haiku cards also provide a keepsake of your special occasion for your guests to cherish forever. “Recipients of our haiku commonly frame them, hang them on their fridges, or even get them tattooed,” said a spokesperson. “We aim to create a memorable experience that will last a lifetime.”
The typewriter poets cater to both private and corporate events that include parties, weddings, client dinners, conferences, fashion shows, product launches, and much more! In addition, you can display your logo or monogram on the back of the haiku cards.

Haiku is a type of short-form, unrhyming poetry that conveys the spirit or emotion of a specific moment in time. Originating from 17th-century Japanese hokku, its traditional purpose was to evoke the essence of nature or a season and act as the opening to a longer poem. English-form Haiku consists of 3 lines composed of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. It can be written on any topic, capturing the mood of an experience through the depiction of mental imagery.
Haikuists began in 2012 when the founders set up a haiku stand in Brooklyn to meet and interview entrepreneurs for another project. Passers-by stopped to ask for haiku cards and the poets were invited to perform at the Wanderlust Festival. The company’s event appearances expanded for the next 10 years and now average hundreds of events a year across over a dozen major US cities. Haikuists' clients have included Bloomberg, Google, Barnes & Noble, Steve Madden, J.P Morgan, and many more.
The poets wear formal 3 piece suits or evening dresses. They can also dress for specific themes requested by customers. For weddings, the Haikuists can help guests write their own messages which can be compiled into a typed guestbook, pinned to a haiku tree, or strung into organic artwork. A satisfied customer said: “And they were correct, the event was a huge success… Many thanks to Chris and Deena for creating such a wonderful atmosphere. Guests loved their interactions and the haiku card takeaways. A great memory of the night.”
