Bodamaestra, which translates into “wedding masterpiece,” proudly serves couples of every nationality, faith, and background.
Additionally, as a bilingual wedding planner, we offer the added benefit – or in some cases essential service – of catering to couples and families who speak Spanish. To this end, I have an authentic understanding of the distinctive qualities that define many of today’s Latino wedding ceremonies and receptions.
Start the wedding planning process on the right foot! Avoid spending countless hours online, sending emails to vendors to find out about potential wedding venues, florists, bakers, photographers, videographers, and wedding invitations – and let’s not forget about finding the right DJ or band that could make or break your party…that’s simply SO much to handle! Bodamaestra offers you a full wedding planning service and wedding management like no other.
We know the best of the best in the Washington, D.C. Metro area! Creative and talented vendors who are eager to work with you to bring yourwedding vision to life.
You’ll also have to think about all your other needs, such as your wedding dress, bridesmaids dresses, hair and makeup styles, out-of-town guest activities, lodging and so on. Will you save your cake top tier? How will you organize your wedding guest list…wait, plated or buffet dinner? Open bar, signature drinks? Alcohol permits, wedding insurance – what’s all this!? Will we even be able to afford this wedding?
Not to worry. We understand that this may seem overwhelming, but we’ve got you covered. With so much to plan and so little time to do it all, our job is to get you super organized. From our master checklist to helping you arrange every single detail, you’re in good hands with BodaMaestra. We will kindly remind you of tasks that are due so you don’t miss a beat. Our service includes budgeting, too, which is an essential step to start planning your wedding and that will avoid the sticker shock.
Do we cover your wedding design needs? Yes, of course! Let us bring your Pinterest board to life by helping you create your own signature style. From wedding stationery, floral recipes and wedding cake design to choosing your perfect color scheme, together we’ll achieve that look – the one that speaks to you and that will be worthy of any wedding inspiration blog!

Creative, Understanding and Great Communication
For my wedding I was looking for a wedding planner that understood the latin culture. I wanted to have a Loteria theme wedding that combined the culture of my parent's native country and my husband's parent's native country. I came across BodaMaestra through a social media post, I became curious and checked out BodaMaestra's main website. As I was scrolling on the page I fell in love with seeing pictures of other couples weddings. The decor for each wedding looked so beautiful! That's when I knew I should contact Esme and see if she was available for my wedding date. Having Esme has our wedding planner was an amazing experience! I explained to her what theme I wanted for our wedding, and she created design presentation that demonstrated ideas for centerpieces, floral design , backdrop recommendation. As I looked at the design presentation I was amazed with her creativity. She made the wedding planning process go smoothly, she was great at communicating with me and also very understanding with budget goals. My wedding day went perfect, my guests complimented on how organized our wedding was, how beautiful the flowers were and loved the centerpieces we had! Thank you Esme for all your help, wishing you so much success.

Esme Delivers Unforgettable Weddings!!!
Esmeralda was fantastic to work with! She truly understood what needed to be done at the right moment. She was able to keep track of all the wedding details and decisions that needed to be made to make all the important moments on our big day perfect! She was prepared to make our wedding fantastic from the beginning and knew exactly what needed to be done. She coordinated and had detailed schedules for our rehearsal and wedding day which made everything run extremely smooth! She prepared us with the right information and questions before our vendors even requested the info to ensure we had enough time to think about what we wanted and did not feel rushed at the last minute.

Esme responded to our lengthy emails and many questions promptly and she made it very easy to coordinate phone calls and in person meetings. She maintained contact with all our vendors and made sure everyone knew our wedding details, timelines, and special events such as our vibora de la mar tradition. She was very patient when we could not make decisions, and she gave us very helpful advice that made the wedding planning process less stressful.
We hired Esme because she was highly recommended, and we felt that she could truly understand our backgrounds and the blend of our values and cultures. We were extremely happy with her work! From the first time we met, we trusted her with our wedding and she created a wedding experience that was beyond anything we could have imagined! It was unforgettable!.
We wanted a simple and elegant wedding that represented our values and traditions, and she was able to make it happen! She has many great vendor contacts, especially in the Latino community, and found the perfect vendors for us, including the phenomenal bilingual emcee and our hojarascas (a Mexican wedding cookie) caterer. She had never worked with our venue (48 Fields Farm) and caterer (Old Blue BBQ), but you would have never known. Everything went so smoothly on our wedding day thanks to her. She was able to take care of all the details, and made our job very easy!
Esme is a true professional. She went above and beyond to help create a fantastic floral design, and we highly recommend letting Esme design your floral arrangements. During the wedding, Esme worked tirelessly behind the scenes ensuring all the details were taken care of and that everything was running smoothly. Not a single detail during the entire wedding experience was lost on her!
Esme created a beautiful wedding experience for us, and we could not think of anything we would change! Esme put her whole heart into our wedding experience, and the results were truly amazing. We highly recommended Esme and Bodamaestra without any reservations!
