Chic Bahamas Weddings

I only spoke to Marva one time, a few years ago, when I was planning my wedding in the Bahamas. I had already scouted most of my vendors and was deciding between 2 venues. We had the most lovely conversation, in which she offered free advice and was so flexible on what she could help me with.

Covid came and I decided to take it all on myself. If I was planning a wedding or special event in the Bahamas, I would most certainly hire Marva as the first step! She has a wealth of knowledge to plan your event and a wonderful, calm, supportive spirit.

Marva, I wish you nothing but the best and I want you to know that I cherished our convo. Thank you for your support and I’m happy to recommend you!

Where to begin, Marva’s work is perfection and she is also incredibly kind, calm and thoughtful.
We got engaged at the end of 2019 and met with Marva in the beginning of 2020 to book/plan our wedding for May 2021 at Grand Isle in Great Exuma. Once the pandemic hit, Marva went above and beyond to help us plan & replan multiple pre wedding site visits as we all navigated the ever changing situation. We were finally able to visit Grand Isle in January 2021 and following our trip we made the tough decision to postpone our wedding another year. Marva was so understanding, helpful & compassionate as we worked through this entire process with the hotel and all our vendors. As we planned, I had an overall vision of the type of wedding I wanted, but I trusted Marva fully to advise on details to bring this to life. She did not disappoint. In fact, I cried when I saw the flowers because they were so stunning. Marva, her amazing team and vendor partners helped bring the day to life in a way I couldn’t have imagined. Despite the rainy weather for our wedding day, every detail for our welcome party at Big Ds and the wedding was incredible. Marva considers everything, your individual styles and partners with phenomenal vendors to make the vision a reality. I cannot thank Marva enough, I put my trust fully in her and would highly recommend her to any bride or for any event.

Marva was really special, very professional and flexible. She manage to get the exact idea of what we wanted and make it real. It was a day I didn't have to worry about anything else because she took care of every detail. I'm more than satisfied with her service.

Mrs. Marva will always hold a place in my heart. I will never forget the morning she took my call. I learned a few days later, Marva just lost both of her parents that morning & she took my call. I believe God leads us to special in our lives & Marva truly is a wonderful lady. She cares about each of her weddings & cares about each person and every detail involved in each wedding. I tried to give her as much detail, pictures, descriptions to convey what we desired for our wedding to make her job easier, but she actually made me feel less worried about the planning. Her many years in the industry just took over naturally. Myself & my husband are not high end clients. We own small family owned business in North Palm Beach, FL but when working with Marva I felt like a celebrity during the planning process & for our wedding day. Every bride & groom should feel like ROCK STARS & Marva really made us feel so special. If you want fresh flowers delivered to your bride every morning Marva will make sure it happens. If you want a private secluded Exuma sandbar wedding, Marva will make sure you have it. She even made the weather corporate =) If you want to include a Bahamian Junkanoo band to your special day then Chic Bahamas Weddings will deliver fun exciting beautiful experience s like these for you & your guest to enjoy. Every wedding needs beautiful flowers & Marva will make sure you receive nothing but the freshest that you desire. Chic Bahamas Weddings is quality and only works with best. Marva will not have it any other way and I appreciate it so much. We want to share everything we have from our wedding with Marva to her future brides/grooms. If you need a professional photographer Marva was able to recommend J. Co Photography & others that she works closely with for your special day. I could keep going on & on about Chic Bahamas Weddings... I will close by saying Chic Bahamas Wedding made my dream wedding come true at a very fair affordable pricing! Marva went over & beyond for us. We hope by sharing this review of our Exumas Sandbar wedding with Chic Bahamas Weddings is helpful in your decision for your wedding planner! -Rachel & John @FloridaScubaDivers

Marva and her team did a fantastic job! She executed our vision perfectly. It was truly a magical day! Marva was very patient throughout the pandemic. We ended up working together for a long time and it was a great experience. She thought of everything and gave us direction every step of the way. Marva went above and beyond for our destination wedding in Exuma. We had the most special wedding and adore Marva.

Working with Marva and her team was the best decision we ever made! If you are dreaming of having a wedding in the Bahamas (big or small, simple or grand) I would never do it without enlisting the help of Chic Bahamas Weddings. Marva is Bahamian and knows all the ins and outs of getting it done in the islands, which is not easy to navigate. She is professional, kind, on top of it at all times and dedicated to making anything and everything you want happen. Just when you think it can't be done, Marva makes it a reality! By the end of our wedding week we dubbed her the Marvelous Marva because not only did she make our plan and vision come to life, she made it better than we every expected. I was able to relax and enjoy our entire wedding week and soak in every moment with Chic Bahamas Weddings on board. Cant recommend her enough!

Chic Bahamas weddings and Marva Munroe was a pleasure working with as a destination wedding planner. Planning a wedding during a pandemic was stressful, but Marva took all the stress away from me with her knowledge, professionalism, and experience in planning weddings.

Marva’s communication skills during the planning process were excellent. With her calming voice, when we spoke on the phone, I knew I had the right person in charge of my wedding. She made sure I understood everything was under control, and I felt comfortable during the planning process. Marva made sure no detail was missing, and no questions went unanswered.

My wedding moved from April to December with fewer guests than expected, but I had a beautiful wedding. Marva exceeded my expectations. The next time my husband and I visit the Bahamas, we will see Marva. We feel we've gained a lifelong friend in her.

Marva and her team were pleasant to work with from the start. Planning a destination wedding can seem daunting but everything was exactly as I had hoped! She is professional, organized, and so much fun to work with!

Marva and her team managed to take all of the stress out of planning a dream wedding. She was professional, organized, and brought a wonderfully positive energy to the entire production. With very little input from us, Marva managed to create an event that was exactly what we'd hoped it would be. Long distance planning requires a lot of blind faith - we put our trust in Marva and we are so thankful we did! Words cannot express how grateful we are to Chic Bahamas Weddings for their hard work and commitment towards creating an unforgettable experience.

Let me just start off with planning a wedding can be nerve wrecking, and I would recommend anyone who is getting married to hire one for themselves and save you so much stress. After speaking and reading reviews on several different planner’s after talking to Marva I knew she was the perfect fit. My husband and I both have extremely busy schedules, and Marva was willing to work around our availability. We live in NYC and with our wedding being in the Bahamas, and we hadn’t met Marva until the week of our wedding, but when we did it was like we met her several times throughout the process.

From our first conversation all the way through and after our wedding day Marva was an amazing listener, extremely caring, and was able to advise us in the right path when it came to making decisions for our big day. She was accommodating with all of our needs, and truly made it feel like she wanted us to have the best day. The venue, food, flowers, performances, everything exceeded our expectations. Marva really pulled everything together so smoothly.

One thing that comes to mind to me is the arch for the ceremony. I wanted to make sure we stuck within our budget and suggested what I envisioned. She suggested a full circle floral arch which I never thought would have been possible with our budget but Marva was able to work directly with the florist and they were able to make the most incredible, lush, and beautiful full circular floral arch for our ceremony. When Marva walked us out to the venue before the ceremony I nearly cried. Marva went well above and beyond what we ever could have anticipated.

If I had to go back and start this process all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing and I would hire Marva over and over again. We plan to celebrate a milestone wedding anniversary in the future, and I would love to have Marva plan that for us and our family. I would highly recommend Marva to plan your wedding, you will not be disappointed. Marva thank you for everything, you made out big day so memorable, and absolutely perfect.
