    Wedding Planner

    Sari was an amazing party planner! She has the “get it done” energy that every bride needs supporting them throughout the process. She was on point from the moment we found her until the end of our wedding. I was in need of help with only 2.5 months left to plan and she answered my call right away. She is fun to talk to and had the experience to make the perfect suggestions based on your wants and needs. She brought her A Team to help make our day the best it could be. Her husband was very helpful and provided the comic relief we needed to keep the pressure off. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Sari for everything!

    Excellent. Highly recommend!

    We had an amazing experience with Sari and team. She was highly organized, professional, supportive and communicative leading up to our event. The photos from the event are absolutely stunning and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. I would highly recommend working with Sari to plan your event.

    Above and beyond for our vow renewal

    If I could give 10 stars for flexibility I would! Five years ago Sari, John, and crew held our amazing wedding ceremony. We knew we wanted to have a vow renewal with them again; however, the when, where, and how kept changing. Sari was so gracious in adjusting as our plans kept changing. She went above and beyond to make our vow renewal as meaningful as our original wedding ceremony. They treat us like family, and we know you will be too.

    A Tropical Glamour Wedding Like No Other

    My husband and I are so happy that we worked with Tropical Weddings & Events Puerto Rico to make our amazing wedding happen. From the beginning, Sari and her team were as excited as we were and quickly got on the same page with regards to the style we wanted. This was our second wedding after having a much simpler ceremony earlier in the year, so I had some experience with weddings but nothing of this scale.

    I was born and raised in Luquillo, so I wanted an event that would give the guests who had never been to Puerto Rico before an amazing experience. Tropical Weddings had vendors who were truly great and had such an eye for design. From our cake to our flowers, our food to the Piragua company who put on a show, everything was AMAZING! I'm still reeling from how beautiful everything turned out, even when it rained the ENTIRE DAY.

    I'm definitely a nervous planner, but I received replies to every question I had and guidance on things I didn't even think about. The Tropical Weddings team is like no other and I can confidently say that I will be forever grateful that we were able to work together to make our dream wedding a reality. I will never forget it :)

    Our 11.11.22 Wedding Dream

    Working with Sari and the whole team to plan my wedding was such a wonderful experience! Sari knows all the best wedding professionals/vendors to put together an above and beyond wedding team. We have family that live in Puerto Rico who does photography for weddings as well, and she confirmed by telling us we had all the best! Tropical Weddings knows how to work with exactly what you want and make things happen! They have a ton of great connections that made the process easy and could feel good about our choices. Since my husband and I didn't even go down once to try the food or see the venue before the wedding, but we trusted in Sari and Tropical Weddings...and it turned out to be an absolute dream come true. Everything we wanted was there and are great at handling and adapting to any mishaps that may happen in a wedding. Sari and John are really great people and felt like we've always known them when we finally met after a year or so of planning! Sari and her team even beat us to the rehearsal dinner when SHE had a flight in that day! Tropical Wedding's is the real deal and you wont be disappointed on your special day. Shout out to Emily for being amazing and by my side pre and during our wedding. She was so kind and flexible. Overall I couldn't have been happier with how our day went, and I have wonderful photos and videos thanks to Tropical Weddings planning. 10/10 !!!! Thank you Tropical Weddings!!!!

    Excellent -

    Sari and her team pulled my wedding together in less than a week. Without her expertise and knowledge of legal marriage requirements in Puerto Rico, it would not have been possible. There is no updated or accurate information online so we were very grateful for her quick reply to my emailed questions not to mention her calming demeanor. She assured me it could be done and guided us through every step, she made this bride feel that I was definitely in the right hands. The ceremony itself was small and short but wow - did she bring the emotion of the day bubbling to the surface. She was an excellent wedding officiant and we just can't say thank you enough. Tropical Weddings & Events Puerto Rico deserves all 5 stars!!

    Fun and Excellence

    We could not be more surprised with the beauty of our wedding. Unforgettable fun is an understatement. I appreciate the help selecting great vendors and company we now consider our friends.

    My Planners ❤️

    My husband and I decided to renew our vows in Vieques, PR May 2022. We knew we need a planner to help guide and basically help us execute our special day. After few phone calls , I chose sari and John! They are not just sweet, helpful, amazing professional people but they are just simply authentic humans! They hold a special place in our hearts always! Don’t know what we would have done without them! They went above and beyond for us. Catering to bride and groom is a UNDERSTATEMENT! They stepped into every and any job description need on our day of and prior! Forever grateful for you two!
    Love Always, Your favorite Sanchez Family ❤️

    Above & Beyond

    They go above and beyond for their clients. My wife and I could not have been happier while planning our wedding. When we first picked Puerto Rico to be our wedding location we thought we could do it ourselves but then we found Sari and quickly realized how hard it would’ve been to navigate on our own. She knows EVERYBODY! We had a budget and they made sure we stuck as close to it as possible. Sari and her staff worked with my deployment schedule and continued working with my spouse in the planning while I was away. Let’s not forget John, he is a hoot! They were both a pleasure to work with and really made things that much more special. Our big day was magical. Tropical Weddings is military and LGTBQ+ friendly. We 1100% recommend Tropical Weddings to anyone looking to plan a destination wedding in Puerto Rico.

    THE BEST planning team for the best wedding

    Working with Sari and her team was an absolute life saver. Planning a destination wedding throughout all the challenges during the uncertainty that the last year of COVID brought was very stressful. But Sari’s constant support, and on the ground knowledge of restrictions helped us plan and evaluate all of our options leading up to the wedding. She always was bringing to the table solutions to issues, or planning out back up plans just to be safe---and as a constant worrier of all of the “what ifs” that greatly reduce my stress and anxiety around having so many family and friends travel from mainland US to Puerto Rico. We even were fortunate enough to be able to make a trip down to Puerto Rico prior to the wedding and Sari helped us coordinate a venue visit, food tasting and hotel selection.

    Sari was so incredibly helpful with bringing the highest quality vendors to the table, and helped us communicate with those vendors who may not have answered me as fast as I would have liked. Her past experience working at the venue we selected and the good relationships she has established with each of the vendors on our team really helped everything move smoothly from contract/price discussions all the way through the big day.

    We owe Sari, John and Sam more thanks than we could ever say aloud for the best wedding experience for us and for our guests. Her team was available from the moment we arrived in Puerto Rico. They coordinated a quick visit to the venue a few days before the wedding, were present to help during the rehearsal run through and rehearsal dinner at the hotel the day before. On the big day, their team was there every step of the way, corralling our wedding parties and guests, giving a tour of the grounds to our photographer, fetching my veil and flowers and always refilling my drink all night long (thank you Sam). All our guests came up to us on the wedding and the days after telling us that this was one of the most beautiful and fun weddings they have attended—and we have Sari and her team to thank for that.

    The Tropical Weddings team will forever be an amazing part of the memory we have of our wedding day, and I owe them so many hugs and thanks for their support in the planning process!

    Thank you Sari, John and Sam ---Austin and I are so thankful to you.

    Sari and John ROCK!

    My husband and I can't say enough great things about Sari and John. We literally planned a wedding in three weeks, while living in Chicago, and we would not have been able to pull if off without them. We wanted a no frill, intimate ceremony on a beach with a sunset and that is exactly what we got. We wanted to change the venue the day before the wedding and they made it happen. As a bride on her wedding day I felt NO stress (other than when the Uber's car broke down on the highway, but I was still very calm :)). Sari was (and still is!) so responsive to emails and text messages. Sari and John are a great team and so much fun! They picked us up at our Airbnb and dropped us off at dinner. They even hung out with us and shared a drink with us to celebrate! We have made new friends for life and we can't wait to see them when we return to Puerto Rico!

    Great experience

    Sari was very helpful and informative throughout the whole process. She went above and beyond for us even though at times I as the bride became frustrated or anxious she always made sure she called to calm me down and put my mind at ease. I appreciate everything tropical weddings did for us.

    Had a perfect wedding day

    I picked Sari as my wedding planner because of her great personality and confidence. She is fun to work with, and had patience for my anxious heart who worried about every step of planning a wedding during Covid. The day of my wedding was a dream, and having Sari and John there was very reassuring.

    Sweet, amazing and calming

    Can't say enough good things about Sari & John. I contacted her in 2016 but after some stuff and Hurricane Maria, everything was on hold. Last year she contacted me to check status, and honestly, we forgot about it. After what was supposed to be a small wedding, became too much, I was a wreck. Emailed her and she called me right away. Made me feel calm and reminded me how special that day was supposed to be. Quick reply, even when she was out of the country or unavailable, great vendors suggestions and amazing at taking care of big and small "issues". She took care of vendors quotes and contacting them, wedding timeline, everything!!! Wedding day was a breeze thanks to her, always keeping an eye on us, making us feel taking care of. They gave us great advice that we've never thought or heard of, but helped us a lot! THANK YOU!!!!!

    Absolutely Amazing

    There are not enough good things we could say about Sari & John. After hiring them and booking our venue and vendors, we had one of the worst things happen- our venue canceled 4 months before our wedding. Sari was fantastic getting a new place booked and coordinating all of the details. She recommended and helped book the best vendors. If anything came up, they were so quick to work on fixing any issue, before the wedding and the day of. During and after the wedding, our family and friends could not commend Sari & John enough on how great they were planning and coordinating the event. I know without a doubt our wedding would have been a disaster without them there. We are forever thankful for the wonderful job they did making our day spectacular. Highly, highly recommend to anyone looking for any type of wedding, big or small!

    Fabulous Beach Wedding Elopement

    It was just the two of us, but it felt like all our friends & family were there with the video option! Sari & John helped us from start to finish, even taking pictures with our phone to post on FB. Remote planning was made easy. They even brought us to get our marriage license! The flowers I ordered with just a picture were PERFECT! Very attention to details that you want for your wedding; you can't go wrong with Tropical Weddings!
