Passionate Weddings is the BEST!!!

Passionate Weddings with Diana Santiago guided us every step of the journey to help create an amazing wedding for our daughter and our new son-in-law. The scope of work for our wedding included onsite meetings, vendor recommendations,coordinating vendor contracts, payments and all vendor follow ups, interfacing with the local accommodations, invitations and communication with our guests throughout the wedding process. When we couldn’t make the floral on-site meeting, Diana attended and FaceTime us to helped to tweak the floral design. Throughout the process a Google document is shared and helps to keep every detail organized. The timeline Diana created of the
rehearsal and wedding day coordination and guidance was indispensable. We didn’t have to worry about anything, Diana and her team took care of all the wedding day details. Additionally, Diana is able to be both a good listener for the bride and grooms vision of their wedding and help elevate the event with additional wedding ideas and suggestions. We had a fantastic experience with Passionate Weddings and highly recommend their services. The combination of keen attention to details, consistent communication and a positive attitude really made the wedding a magical experience.

We couldn't have pulled it off without Passionate Weddings

J and I are so grateful to you for helping to make our wedding everything we hoped it would be. Our guests raved how flawless and smooth everything went. Thank you again for working with us on making the final ceremony rain back up plan call. You saved all of us from rain and humidity.

You and Bridget made everything possible! We appreciate you going above and beyond for us.

Many thanks,
J&J

Amazing Team

Full disclosure: I initially had my doubts about hiring a day of coordinator. Those doubts were erased when I hopped on the phone with Diana and was given the run down of the services provided. The description of “day of coordinator” does not do Justice to the services provided.

Diana and her team were absolutely professional, well organized, friendly, and provided so much help to us in the lead up to and day of the wedding.

I cannot recommend her and her team enough.

This company is truly fantastic! As a photographer I often end up doing a lot of coordinating on the day of the wedding and end up taking on two jobs, but working with these professionals at Passionate weddings all I needed to focus on was getting great shots! They took care of all the details! They are incredibly friendly and everyone loved working with them, including my wife and I. I highly recommend them!

I highly recommend Passionate Weddings to all of my clients who are looking for a true wedding professional. Diana is organized and wonderful to work with. Her work is flawless and she is great at keeping the bride & groom and vendors calm.

We have worked with Passionate Weddings in a few events this past year and last year and the professionalism they have is unique. The detailed plans and programs and the great communication before an event makes it very easy for us as a vendor and make the day of the event flow smoothly.
