Mariela, eres espectacular. Cuando decidimos casarnos, buscábamos una persona que respetara nuestras ideas para ese día especial, aportara todos sus conocimientos y nos llevará de la mano. Sobrepasaste todas nuestras expectativas. No solo nos guiaste por este camino, lo hiciste llevadero, fuera de estrés y te convertiste en una amiga durante todos estos meses. Te admiramos por lo profesional que eres, enfocada en tu trabajo y leal a tus palabras. No solo nosotros estábamos agradecidos y tranquilos por tu trabajo, nuestros invitados igual lo sintieron así. Gracias por ser parte de nuestra unión. ¡Te queremos!

My husband and I knew we wanted a special celebration for our wedding that truly represented us and the people we love, but we didn’t have a clear vision for how to bring it all together. From our very first conversations, Mariela took the time to really understand who we are, what mattered most to us, and the feeling we wanted our wedding to have. She translated that into something even more beautiful and meaningful than we could have imagined.

Mariela connected us with incredible vendors and worked with the Etero Event team to plan a wedding that felt so authentically “us.” The result was unbelievably beautiful, perfectly organized, and genuinely one of the most fun nights of our lives. Everything ran so smoothly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment with our family and friends.

Throughout the entire process, I rarely felt stressed or uneasy because I trusted Mariela and the Etero Event team completely. They were thoughtful, responsive, detail-oriented, and always one step ahead. Having that level of trust made the experience not only seamless but also truly enjoyable.

We feel incredibly lucky to have worked with Mariela and Etero Events. They created a celebration that we, and our guests, will remember forever.

Etereo truly made the planning process much easier. Mariela was listened to what we wanted and executed on all fronts. Couldn't recommend more.

Mariela was the best wedding planner we could’ve wished for. From day one we connected personally and she understood our vision. She’s very attentive, organized and super easy going. We loved that she uses aisle planner, a one stop shop for all info of our wedding. All vendors she recommended were aligned with our budget, vision and even on a personal level we connected with all of them. On wedding day, we were not anxious or stressed at all since we were 100% comfortable knowing that Mariela and her team had everything under control. Her attention to detail on our wedding day was incredible and our guests even commented on it, from fixing the bride’s shoes, fixing the maid of honor’s dress, to making sure we always had a drink in hand without visiting the bar. We would recommend Mariela over and over.

Mariela was amazing from start to finish, once we started talking with her we knew that she was going to plan our wedding and we called her in march and our wedding was in august and she never hesitated and told us that it was possible. We are very grateful for her since she made our day the best ever. Every thought and everything that we told her was made lo life and exceeded our expectations. If you want a great wedding planner and a great person to make your day memorable you must have Mariela to be part of your big day, you will not regret it

Working with Mariela was one of the best decisions we ever made for our wedding. From our very first meeting, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day everything we dreamed of and she delivered beyond anything we could have imagined.

She was always there — constantly checking in, quick to respond to every message, and somehow always one step ahead of us. No detail was too small, no request too much. Her patience, professionalism, and ability to keep everything running smoothly gave us such peace of mind throughout the entire process.

But what meant the most to us is that she didn’t just plan our wedding — she became a part of it. By the end of the journey, she truly felt like a friend. She celebrated with us, supported us, and cared for our day like it was her own.

Thanks to her, we had the wedding of our dreams. It was beautiful celebrating the union of our two cultures and full of love- we will forever be grateful to her for making it all happen. We’ll never forget what she did for us, and she'll always have a special place in our hearts! If you have the chance to work with her, don’t think twice — she’s the best there is!

Mariela is attentive, detailed, professional, honest, and incredibly responsive (and if she couldn't respond she would immediately let us know). The vendors that work with her have SO much respect for her and what she does for her clients. From the very beginning, Mariela was on top of everything! If we wanted it, she found a way to make it happen. If she didn't believe it would work, or had better ideas she was quick to tell us! I trusted Mariela completely and not once did she let us down.
We had a long engagement with some bumps along the way. I truly believe my wedding would not have been what it was if we didn't have Mariela on our side. In the beginning, something really important fell through for us. Mariela was right there calming me down, talking to who she knew, and immediately fixed someone else's mistake which turned everything around for us. During the actual day, Mariela was there covering any issues or hiccups with grace and professionalism, going above and beyond what she was even required to do. Her level of dedication goes beyond just a "job". She cares so deeply about her clients and her work and it shows. I could go on and on about my experience, but I will never be able to accurately explain the feeling of knowing everything will work out because of her. The day was perfect precisely because we had Mariela with us, and we will spend the rest of our lives singing her praise.

From the very beginning, working with Mariela Fernández and the incredible team at Etéreo Events was nothing short of magical. As a queer Puerto Rican couple planning one of the most meaningful days of our lives, we were met with warmth, care, and a level of thoughtfulness that left us in awe. Mariela didn’t just plan our wedding, she held our vision with such intention and grace, and turned it into a reality more beautiful than we could’ve ever imagined.

Her professionalism and calm, steady presence were unmatched. Even as she navigated our different time zones (California and Puerto Rico!) and our completely different personalities, Mariela somehow managed to meet us more than halfway, always making us feel supported and understood. She truly listened, adapted, and brought our dream to life with so much heart.

Every detail was handled with love. Every decision felt intentional. Mariela found creative ways to keep us well within our budget without ever sacrificing the elegance, joy, or quality we dreamed of. We felt seen, heard, and celebrated every step of the way. Her team made us feel completely at ease, allowing us to be present and fully soak in the experience, knowing we were in the best of hands.

Etéreo Events exceeded every expectation. Mariela and Jennifer, you two are truly gems. We are eternally grateful for your hearts, your artistry, and your dedication. Thank you both for giving us the gift of a wedding that reflected our love so perfectly.

To anyone looking for a planner, regardless of who you are or where you come from, know this: with Mariela and Etéreo Events, you will be deeply cared for, and your love story will be honored in the most beautiful way.

Con todo nuestro cariño,
Adriana and Marlene
