Kimberly was extremely friendly and helpful!

Kimberly helped me narrow down my destination wedding location which was what I was struggling the most with. She was then there the rest of the process to help navigate the Sandals ecosystem and assist my guests with any questions they had. Kimberly joined all of my calls with the Sandals team, and was always a text away If I needed her for anything.

Kim was great and kept it fun!

We had the pleasure of working with Kim for our destination wedding at Hotel Xcaret Arte in Playa del Carmen, and the experience was great. From our initial consultation, Kim demonstrated a deep understanding of the unique aspects of hosting a wedding at this stunning venue. She really helped push when we need to get an answer. Kim also provided help in navigating the hotel's offerings, such as the All-Fun Inclusive® concept, which grants guests unlimited access to Xcaret's parks and amenities. Her guidance helped us make informed decisions that enhanced our guests' experience, making our wedding not just a day but a memorable vacation for everyone involved.

Absolutely loved Kimberly!

Kimberly went above and beyond for my wedding. Communication was definitely her strong suit, all of my guests really appreciated her as well. She truly took a massive weight off my shoulders when it came to booking my guests, dealing with the resort, and even some of my family members. We are forever grateful to her for making our day as perfect and seamless as it was. You will not be disappointed!

Everything we could have ever dreamed of

Kimberly Gould was absolutely amazing. We had a destination wedding in cancun this summer with about 30 guests. She was a pleasure to work with through the entire process. Kimberly was attentive, kind, patient and very professional. We had a few snags with the wedding planner in cancun, rooms and the resort and she was our biggest advocate. She worked with them and us to get us everything we asked for and more. She had great communication and was patient with some of our family who needed help or had questions. She mafe what could have been an extremely stressful experience actually enjoyable.

Best destination wedding planner - Kim Gould!

Planning a destination wedding can be incredibly daunting, but Kim made it a smooth and enjoyable journey from start to finish. She was more than just a planner; she became my confidant and true advisor throughout the process. From helping us select the perfect location to choosing the date and every detail in between, her guidance was invaluable, especially since we hadn’t even seen the venue in person. She also was absolutely amazing with all of our guests and personally took care of all of them during the booking process. Everyone loved her!

Destination weddings have their unique challenges, but Kim’s expertise turned every potential stressor into a seamless part of the experience. She handled everything with professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care, making us feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. Thanks to her, our wedding was not only breathtaking but truly the most memorable experience we could have imagined. I can’t recommend Kim enough to anyone considering a destination wedding; she made our dreams come true! She is the best and we are so glad we have her by our side when we’re planning our next anniversary vacation!
