Notre expérience a été parfaite du début jusqu'à la fin. Assyah et José on été gentils, compréhensifs et surtout professionnels. Nous nous sommes mariés à Quito, à l'église et au registre civil. Ils nous ont tout organisé et même retiré nos documents après le mariage. Je suis franco Équatorien et ma femme est italienne une partie de nos invités sont venus d'Europe et Jamila et Juliette nous ont aidé pour les transferts depuis l'aéroport, l'hôtel etc. C'était super
Les fleurs, l'ambiance, tout. Merci encore !

We couldn’t be happier with our Jamila and Juliette! Before the wedding, they were absolutely amazing—responsive, attentive, and always respectful of our choices. They offered us plenty of great options and made the planning process feel easy and enjoyable.

On the big day, we truly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. They brought our vision to life perfectly—simple, beautiful, and wonderfully organized. The flower arrangements were stunning: colorful, special, and exactly as we had imagined. Every detail reflected what we wanted, and their work made the whole event feel magical.

Thanks to Jose and Assyah, we enjoyed an unforgettable day filled with beauty, joy, and love. Highly recommended!

As the father of the bride, it came as no surprise to me that my independent daughter would pick a destination wedding on another continent. I was concerned that she picked Ecuador, because none of us had ever been there before. How do you put the biggest day of your life yet in the hands of strangers almost 4,000 miles away? The good news is that she found Jamila & Juliette, iand more importantly, Assay and Jose Luis. They were amazing. So very helpful to us as we traveled before and after. They made the whole weekend perfect. Every attention to detail was made. Anything they could do to make the wedding special was thought of and accommodated. Travel to and from was perfect, the pre-wedding activities were perfect, the wedding was perfect & travel plans after the wedding were perfect. I can’t express how amazing everything was. I highly recommend Jamila & Juliete for all of your wedding and travel planning needs.

We used Jamila and Juliette for our wedding in May of 2025. Assyah and Jose Luis were our main points of contact. They speak perfect English and were extremely professional. They made everything we could’ve dreamed of and more come true! We had about 40 guests come from the United States from Ecuador. They helped arrange all our guests travel from the time they landed to the time they left the country. We planned a three day event, at two separate venues. They went beyond just setting up a beautiful wedding ceremony. They were emotionally invested in us and our love story. They truly felt like part of the family by the time we left. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to Assyah, Jose Luis, and the entire Jamila and Juliette team. We met with them via Zoom call as often as we felt was needed leading up to the wedding and they had every single detail thought of and completed. From English speaking assistants/guides for guests who didn’t speak Spanish to gift bags to the time line of the wedding day. Everything went so smoothly. Jamila and Juliette also has a travel service and they completely planned our honeymoon in the Galapagos and additional travel for other guests who wanted to explore more of Ecuador. Our honeymoon was beyond perfect and we LOVED every second of it. I would 100% recommend Jamila & Juliette if you are looking for a wedding planner in Ecuador or the Galapagos.

Jamila and Juliette Made My Niece’s Wedding Truly Magical. As the aunt of the bride, I had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the incredible work of Jamila and Juliette, our wedding planners at Kapari. From the very beginning, their attention to detail and unwavering dedication were evident. They listened carefully to every wish my niece and her fiancé had, ensuring that every detail reflected their personalities and dreams.

Jamila and Juliette’s commitment went far beyond what we ever expected. They managed every aspect of the celebration with grace and professionalism, always going the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect. Their artistic vision was present in every element, transforming the venue into a mystical, enchanting space that felt straight out of a fairytale.

What touched me most was their genuine emotional connection to our family. Jamila and Juliette shed tears with us during the ceremony, and by the end of the celebration, they truly felt like part of our family. Despite the cultural differences, they made every guest feel welcomed, valued, and accepted. Their warmth and kindness created an atmosphere of unity and joy.

In all my years, I have never experienced a wedding so magical. The memories Jamila and Juliette helped create will stay with us forever. If you are considering hiring them, I wholeheartedly recommend them—you will not regret it. They will turn your dreams into reality and make your special day unforgettable.

Many thanks,

The best wedding planners ever!❤️ the owners, Assyah & José, are the most amazing duo! Super professional and incredibly creative, working with them is a DREAM! ❤️ definitely the best decision in your wedding planning process, 100000% recommended❤️

Assyah and Jose are amazing. We wanted to do a wedding in Ecuador as now husband’s biological mother was from there and he had reconnected with family. We had one meeting with them and trusted them immediately. They sent us options of different venues and were willing to accommodate us as things came up. They really got to know us and our styles so the of the day wedding everything was perfect. They were responsive and available during the whole process which is very stressful from afar. They have great connections to vendors and have us fair prices. Day of the wedding there is staff to help. They felt like family by the end. Can't recommend them enough.

The communication between all of us in the US was top notch. The rehearsal and rehearsal dinner oh my goodness was flawless and so much fun. The day of the wedding was emotional for me. The groom and my son who passed were childhood and young adult friends. But as their officiant and another mother to the groom I showed up. The help of these fine folks and their professionalism was outstanding. I have married over 2500 couples. But I so highly recommend these professional people. Destination weddings mean you get great value for the money and time to really reconnect with loved ones as we did. God Bless you all for doing such a great job.

Jamila & Juliette may be the name of their wedding-planning business, but behind the brand are two very real and passionate people who put together a spectacular wedding weekend for me, my husband, and our 80 closest family and friends.
For context, my now husband and I are both from Miami but our wedding guests live around the world – from the Caribbean to South America to Europe and Australia. I was uninterested in a beach wedding at home because of the heat and humidity so we looked elsewhere. Neither of
us are Ecuadorian but the country holds a very special place in my heart as I spent a great part of my childhood travelling the country with my family. So we decided to start looking at venues and searching for wedding planners we could trust. Upon finding a venue, La Palma Polo Club, that checked all of our boxes (near airport, lodging on-site, amazing views, and post-midnight closing time), we soon stumbled upon Jamila & Juliette. Of the several wedding planners we were considering, they easily stood out as our
number one choice. They appeared authentic, experienced, and displayed their style with good taste. Before we were under contract, we set up a call with Assyah and Jose to get a better feel for them and make sure it was a good fit. Not only did they affirm our intuition, but they were also
very professional, informative, and dedicated to answering all our questions. But most importantly, we trusted them. They even had a working relationship with the venue we were interested in, so it just felt right.
From the beginning, they helped keep us organized with tasks and timelines to keep us on track. The process of choosing vendors was seamless. After speaking to us and understanding what we wanted or were looking for in each vendor, they sent us options to review, then would set up calls for us. The vendors ranged in pricing and varied a bit in what they could offer. After
interviewing several vendors for each category, we could not have been happier with our photographer and caterer. Even the options for our rehearsal dinner venues were top-tier. In regard to the music vendors, we had limited options. However, not only did they perform well,
but the violinist and saxophonist combination and DJ were each very affordable.
In planning the wedding, we had productive discussions about how we wanted the ceremony and reception to look like, and they did a great job executing it. With our style in mind, they offered a variety of necessary rentals like chairs, linens, glassware, etc. with good tier price options. Throughout the process, they were never pushy about anything, which made us even more comfortable with our choices.
As far as florals go, they did an excellent job arranging them. Every arrangement was stunning and classy. As the wedding date came closer, our lives became so busy with other things that we did not have the bandwidth to stay involved in the planning process and so we completely
trusted them to make adjustments for the wedding as they deemed fit.

Both Assyah and Jose were also very patient with us when we could not respond in a timely manner or had late requests or changes for our wedding. Each time, they found a way to make it happen unless we simply were not allowed to. Even with a tight budget, they found ways to
stretch every dollar without compromising our vision or quality.
Our wedding date was set to be in April of 2024. So when gang violence in Ecuador had made international news, we were worried. Assyah and Jose immediately reached out to gauge how we were feeling, and they continued to reach out us frequently with updates on the political climate and temperature. We already had a trip planned to visit them (two weeks after the news broke) in Ecuador to see the venue and meet with vendors so after considering the information they were giving us as well as from other people in Ecuador, and we kept our itinerary and flew down to meet them.
They met with us the day we flew in and were very nice and personable. We went over some outstanding details for the wedding and scheduled the rest of our trip. We had the opportunity to meet with our photographer, Joel, and do a photoshoot with him that day and we really enjoyed working with him. We also had a food tasting with our caterer, Z Catering, who went
above and beyond to make us feel special and we really loved it. Then Assyah and Jose drove us around to see our wedding venue and meet the staff. They also drove us to several wedding rehearsal dinner venue options, then drove us back to our hotel. After we got back from our
trip, we felt a lot better about keeping our wedding date and having our guests attend our wedding. Assyah and Jose continued to keep us well informed on what was happening in the country and offered to speak to and assist any of our guests with their travel plans or inquiries.
Our wedding day was an unforgettable event not just for us, but for our guests as well. We continue to receive compliments on how beautiful it was aesthetically and emotionally, as well as how much fun everyone had! Many of our guests expressed that it was the most memorable wedding they had ever been to, and we owe many thanks to Assyah and Jose for making it
happen. The process of working with them for a year was full of communication, professionalism, and trust. They were there for every step of the way to help plan, design, build, and manage all the moving parts for our special day so that we could just be present and
enjoy the moment. We are eternally grateful!

We found Jamila + Juliette on IG. We reached out and responded quickly. We were planning a non-traditional, bi-cultural, bilingual wedding that mixed jewish and christian traditions. Jamila + Juliette were up for the challenge and worked with us in a short notice. We do not live in Ecuador so having scheduled zoom meetings worked well. They recommended a photographer that we loved and other local vendors that aligned with our progressive values. highly recommend it!
