“We'd also like to serve as a reference should you ever need us. The compliments we're receiving and our absolutely thrilled parents (not to mention the happiest weekend of our lives) are at your disposal. Also, please thank your assistants -- they did a great job as well.”

I had the pleasure of planning and coordinating a truly unique and especially memorable wedding for this wonderful couple, Heather & Alan, who traveled from Manhattan to Cabo for their special day. They celebrated their amazing wedding this past week-end at a truly beautiful, romantic, and exclusive location...the El Dorado Beach and Golf Club in Cabo San Lucas (yes, there were Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel sightings throughout the set up of the wedding).
It was such a fun wedding, with everything from the most amazing fireworks I have ever seen (5 minutes worth shot up into the sky in 3 minutes, to provide a truly spectacular show!) to a live band with the huge lights and a great playlist, a guitarist who serenaded the group from a balcony, and not only the most fabulous dinner served but a delicious salsa and guacamole bar with the hors d'ouevres and a late night taco bar serving fresh grilled carne (beef), chicken and shrimp. Guests were dazzled with fabulous food and entertainment from 4 in the afternoon until 2:30am in the morning. (Their entertainment over the week-end also included a Mariachi band, a Mexican Trio, a Classical Trio, and a late-night DJ.) For the decor, see the upcoming photos for a glimpse at the gorgeous flowers provided by The Flower Cart (http://www.tfccabo.com)and/ the unique linens and rental decor items from Del Cabo Event Design(http://www.delcaboeventdesign.com/) that provided the perfect atmosphere for romance.

VENDOR HIGHLIGHTS:

Transportation: This wedding required tons of transportation (a huge thanks to Los Cabos Travel) as we moved over 120 guests from many different locations over a period of 3 days. My transportation vendor ROCKED and there was not one mishap or lost guest. When I hire a transport company, it is very important that they be FLEXIBLE. We had guests that needed to go to locations not on the official list, and my transport company was happy to help...even at 2:30 in the morning.

Rental Chuppah: This rental item is so gorgeous! Worth every penny! Remember, while the actual wedding ceremony goes quickly, the photos last a lifetime. Sometimes one big ticket item like this can truly change the look and feel of your whole wedding.
