They were attentive, professional, and had great communication throughout the entire process. They made everything so easy and stress-free, and our wedding day was beautiful and memorable. Highly recommend Colossal Wedding Planner to anyone planning a wedding in Aruba!

We honestly can’t say enough good things about Colosal Weddings and, especially, John! From the moment we started planning our wedding in Aruba, John made everything feel so easy and stress-free. We were able to actually enjoy the excitement of getting married without constantly worrying about the little details because we knew everything was in good hands.

Our wedding day was absolutely perfect. Everything went exactly as planned, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. John was so helpful, responsive, and genuinely cared about making our day special. It never felt like we were just another wedding — he made us feel like our wedding really mattered to him.

One thing that really stood out to us was what happened after the wedding. We were so caught up in everything that we didn’t have time to make dinner reservations for later that evening. John went above and beyond and actually booked dinner for us! It was such a thoughtful gesture and something he absolutely didn’t have to do, but it meant so much to us. That’s the kind of person he is — he pays attention to the little things and makes sure you’re taken care of.

We are so grateful to John and the entire Colosal Weddings team for making our Aruba wedding everything we dreamed it would be. If you’re considering getting married in Aruba, we would 100% recommend them. They made our day beautiful, seamless, and truly unforgettable! ❤️

I received Top Notch service from Colosal Weddings, my wedding planner John was amazing from our first zoom call in August 2025-until my ceremony in July 2026. This company was worth the money, we stayed on budget and there were no hidden fees. When an unexpected cost arise we were notified immediately and given two options. I can always reach John via email or WhatsApp. He was always very responsive, and that was huge because I was planning my ceremony with a company located in Aruba and I live in the United States. My husband is wheelchair bound, John worked with me to make accommodation for him be able to manage his entrance through the sand with minimal assistance from others. The service we received is one of a kind. We highly recommend using this company, you won’t be disappointed!

We went to Aruba for a family vacation, and someone from the resort where we stayed recommended we contact him for a family photoshoot! I called him that same day, and he was able to fit us in right away! That was amazing!!!!

He was very professional and patient with our daughter. He did a fantastic job, and we would recommend him 100%.

We had an amazing experience with John as our engagement photographer in Aruba. He was professional, friendly, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire shoot. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful and captured such a special moment for us perfectly.

We’re so grateful for these memories and couldn’t recommend him more!

Everything was perfect! They were very flexible when it came to planning and the attention to detail was amazing. The photography was nothing short of incredible and would recommend booking. 10/10

I came across John & his team 2 years ago, he made sure we got our dream wedding & took the most beautiful pictures. My husband & I are now expecting our first baby & wanted to do a baby moon so ofc we had to reach out to John for our maternity shoot & he did a BEAUTIFUL job AGAIN and even provided us with teasers that same day. We are so thankful for him, he’s truly so talented, professional and just simply the best.

John and his team were fantastic! From our first zoom meeting I was sold!!! He pulled off an amazing wedding from across the pond !!!

We cruised into Aruba on 11.11.25 and John met with me around 10:30 am . I was late due to being on ship time and not Aruba time but he was patient and gave me tour of Aruba by foot. We saw beautiful buildings , resorts and casinos .

He introduced the culture to me, he let me know about the Dutch culture , and his experience of living in Aruba !

We chose the sunset kiss package ! John and his team provided transportation to eagle beach for my guest and groom and I rode in a separate vehicle!

The ceremony was beautiful, the minister was the greatest touch , he made us laugh, cry , and he made my entire family extremely happy he set the vibe ! After the wedding , John’s team did about an hour of photography, our children enjoyed the ocean for a few minutes and we ended the night at Lucy’s with the transportation provided by John’s team !

From beginning to the end everything was amazing ! I would recommend this team to anyone looking to book a destination wedding in Aruba !

We had such a beautiful ceremony. It was everything I had imagined.

It was truly a memorable moment. I was so happy the weather cooperated and the sky was beautiful.

The gentleman who did our service spoke beautifully, it was as if he knew us. I couldn’t have asked for more.

My bouquet was perfect, the colors matched the arch perfectly.

It was perfection from beginning to the end. The planning was seamless. John was constantly in touch. I would definitely recommend them.

Planning a destination wedding from the United States could have been overwhelming, but working with John made the entire process incredibly smooth and stress-free. From the very beginning, John provided us with all the necessary information to have both a civil (legal) ceremony and a symbolic beach ceremony in Aruba.

He walked us through the entire process with exceptional attention to detail. John clearly outlined which documents we needed, where to obtain them, and how to submit everything properly. Thanks to his knowledge and organization, we felt confident and supported every step of the way.

John not only coordinated all of the legal requirements for our civil ceremony, but also arranged for it to take place at the government office and handled transportation. On the day of our wedding, he met us at the civil house, guided us through the process, and even offered to take photos to capture the moment—something we truly appreciated.

A few days before the wedding, John took the time to personally meet us at our hotel to review all final details and answer any last-minute questions. His professionalism and genuine friendliness made him a joy to work with.

Everything was seamless and perfectly executed, and we couldn’t have asked for a better planner to help bring our vision to life. If you’re considering a destination wedding in Aruba, we highly recommend John Zimmerman for his outstanding service and dedication.

Thank you, John, for helping make our special day truly unforgettable!
