We had our wedding at Caneel, and it was amazing. Allison was super organized, and had a great eye for the details that I was looking for. She worked well with all of our vendors and the event was perfect. We had our ceremony on Turtle Bay Beach and the reception on the Verandah. It was the perfect setting for our day, and Allison and the Caneel team really helped make our day amazing.

The venue speaks for itself! You will not find a more beautiful place to get married on St. John. On top of the natural beauty of the venue, Allison and Liz were great with all of our questions, concerns and last minute changes. We communicated mostly through email leading up to the wedding and over the phone closer to the wedding and while we were there. The entire event ran smoothly and was so easy for us. We were able to enjoy our day to the fullest and we wouldn't change anything!

I don't have enough words to describe how thankful we are for everything Liz and Allison did for us. While there were a few staff changes prior to working with Liz and Allison - once they came on board, they made the entire experience worthwhile and seamless. Allison was truly one of a kind and there to ensure every detail was followed through. Being a unique wedding with half of the guests on island and the other half international - Allison worked diligently to make everyone's stay at Caneel truly unbelievable.

I was very specific when it came to my decorations and the way I wanted the day laid out. Allison took in every single detail and truly made it the most remarkable day. From my table runners, to the millions of votives I wanted placed at the tables - she truly captured my vision and made it so much more. Most brides can't say their wedding day was one of the most relaxing day of their lives, but mine truly was. There wasn't anything that needed my attention - Allison handled all of it. She even kept me hydrated through pictures and catered me around in a SUV with AC (lifesaver in the islands). She is truly one of a kind and has an absolute heart of gold. Every wedding is so special to her and you can see that in her work. I would 100% recommend Caneel Bay to all couples looking for that perfect wedding experience. The pictures speak for themselves - it's one of the most beautiful and cherished places I've ever been to. We will definitely be back to visit Allison and the staff next June for our one-year anniversary!
