Best Wedding Planner

We are beyond grateful to Paola for turning our wedding dreams into a reality. From the moment we started talking to her we felt the connection right away she was able to quickly align with us on our vision and always assured us throughout the process that everything will turn out the way we want and not to worry. Having her made a huge difference and reduced the pressure of having everything done on time. She has a lot of experience and can navigate easiely through so many details in a short period of time. She was always available weather through email or setting up calls at our convenience. On the day of the wedding she was there through every step and made things so easy for us. Her team is also amazing and very professional. We could not recommend her enough as she deeply cares about her work and the finally outcome. We highly recommend her and her time!

Incredible experience with Sandra and Paola!

Paola and Sandra did an incredible job helping plan our wedding. I got married a couple weeks ago at Terranea hotel and it was the best day of my life. We found the Say I Do to Details team online and I was highly impressed by their good reviews. Their planning exceeded my expectations.

From being always available, to providing suggestions and insight into timeline, and coordinating everything so well the day of, their team is simply the best. I admire their passion for planning and it was so incredible working with them.

I worked with Paola and Sandra directly and Sandra was there day of. Paola and Sandra are very experienced, professional, and kind. Both were actively involved in the planning process. I’m extremely type A and it’s hard for me to trust people to take over (especially when I knew it was one of the most important days in my life) and take on tasks, but I trusted them 100%.

To start off, they have a lot of experience working at Terannea, which made things a lot easier for us and helped things run smoothly. Moreover, the vendors I selected knew of Paola and Sandra and their team and I admired their good reputation in the wedding industry.

Knowing what I know now, it would have been easier for me to have hired them as full on planning instead of day of coordination just because they’re so good at what they do that I really trust every decision they make.

I keep getting comments from my family and friends that the wedding was one of the best they’ve been to. Moreover I’ve received many comments specifically from my bridal party and close family about the incredible planning team keeping the day so smooth and on track.
There’s a trend on social media about “wedding regrets” and my husband and I keep saying to eachother thankfully that we have zero regrets. Every vendor was amazing and the planning team really went above and beyond what was asked of them and for that I’m forever grateful.

I appreciate that the team asked us what 3 things were important to us on our day.

1. our guests have an amazing time
2. the timeline runs smoothly
3. to have fun

That’s exactly what happened! I am grateful that I was not stressed the day of and we are so happy we found Sandra and Paola as they helped turn my dream wedding into a reality.

The wedding went even better than I could have imagined and I can say without a doubt that it would not have gone so perfectly without Sandra and Paola with Say I Do to Details.

I will 100% contact them to help plan any party I have in the future.
Choose them for your planning team- you won’t regret it!

Dream Wedding

My husband & I got married in November. When we reached out to Paola to see if anyone could help us, she told us Sandra was available. We were one month out from the wedding & due to issues with our previous planner, we had some food vendors, venue, flowers, a DJ but nothing else. Sandra pulled off an absolute miracle to give us our dream wedding in such a short time. She helped keep us calm when we were so overwhelmed by everything. Wedding planners don’t get enough credit for the long lasting memories they give their clients. Sandra quietly dealt with so many issues leading up the wedding & on the day & because of this my husband & I had a stress free wedding day. She bared the burden so we could do nothing but have the best time at our wedding. Because of her, we can honestly look back at our day & say we wouldn’t change a single thing even if we could. I can’t stress enough what a beautiful gift that is. Now that our wedding has passed, we miss talking with Sandra. She’s reached out a couple of times since & it makes us so happy to hear from her. She’s someone who we are going to keep in contact with for the rest of our lives. Whenever something big happens, we’ll want to reach out because she helped us through such a pivotal time. There’s no other planner I’d ever consider using for any event. Thank you Sandra, we love you!

Awesome weddinf planner!

We went with Paola and Say I Do to Details for our full service wedding planning. We worked with Paola for about a year and couldn't have asked for a better planner. She was so on top of everything and took care of even the smallest details (name doesn't lie!) like the napkins and name cards. She has great taste as well and helped us pick our a venue/vendors that would compliment our style. Would definitely recommend to anyone planning a wedding.

The most perfect day!

Sandra and the Say I Do To Details team were absolutely amazing!! With just over a month until the wedding date, they brought the entire day together. A month out and no photographer, videographer, tables, silverware, layout, and the day turned out absolutely perfect. I can say with great confidence that if we had not found the Say I Do To Details team, we most likely would have had to postpone the wedding date.

Thanks to Sandra and her team for helping my sister have her perfect day!

Organized and thoughtful!

Paola and her team did a the tremendous job! Michael and I got engaged in 2019 and we were going to get married in 2020. However with the pandemic—everything got postponed. It was a bride‘s nightmare! We postponed our wedding three times! However, with Paola and her team she made everything super easy and carefree. I did not have to worry about any of my contracts because she took care of all of that and ensured that everything was going to be ok. Paola stayed by our side and helped us have a beautiful wedding in 2022. She is very organized and made sure our wedding ran smoothly. I loved that I didn’t have to worry about any of my vendors during the day of my wedding, she had all their contact information and again, ensured everything was on schedule. If you are planning a wedding—big or small—take the stress out and hire Paola!

Couldn’t ask for a better planner. Paola and team are amazing

My husband and I came across Paola and Say I do to Details on the Knot after weeks of unsuccessful venue searches and visits on our own. We liked the aesthetic of her work from her website and Instagram account, and hoped she would be able to help us plan and coordinate the wedding of our dreams. To say she delivered is an understatement.

From venue selection, to coordinating hotels, to providing suggestions and insight into photographers, videographers, entertainment, rentals, etc. Paola was knowledgeable, had everything under control and knew what to prioritize and when. My husband and I have pretty demanding jobs, so I appreciated that Paola handled vendor communication and only looped us into emails when our attention was needed. Curious, I would often read entire email chains, and was impressed with Paola’s professionalism and her communication approach.

It was clear that Paola has an amazing network of vendors that already love working with her. I was able to interact with several of them before the wedding itself, and every one of them was a pleasure to meet and chat with.

When discussing the design and vision for the wedding, Paola was very attentive and understood exactly what my husband and I were looking for. As someone who typically likes to be in control of everything and be a part of any and all decisions, I was able to feel at ease having Paola drive everything, as I knew she would act in our best interest.

Paola had asked my husband and I our top 3 priorities for our wedding, to which we responded: 1) our guests have a great time, 2) the whole event runs smoothly and 3) the event would have a “wow” factor. She hit it out of the ballpark on all 3, even when we had some unforeseen last minute changes. Never did she seem flustered or stressed.

It has been almost a week since our wedding and my husband and I are still riding that wedding high. It’s crazy to think that we almost threw out the idea of having a wedding when we were getting overwhelmed trying to plan things ourselves. We are so happy we found Paola as she and her team truly created an unforgettable event that felt true to us and that we will forever look back on with fond memories.

Destination Wedding gurus!

We got engaged a little over a year ago with not realizing the complexity of organizing our wedding. We thought we could manage everything on our own (ha, silly us) but soon realized we needed help and guidance from an experienced planner for our destination wedding. We knew we were in good hands when we contacted Paola and her team! Our wedding turned out exactly like we had hoped it would, and it was all thanks to the incredible work of Paola, Sandra, and the team at Say I Do to Details. They were on top of everything from the moment we started working with them, and it was indeed a relief to have their expertise at our disposal. From being the primary contact and creating the best style guide that communicated our vision clearly to vendors, it was clear that the team was invested in making our day very special. The deeper we got into planning our wedding in Cancun, the more questions and roadblocks we came across, but Paola helped navigate us through all the craziness. She and Sandra knew all the right questions to ask and were assertive with the resort and vendors when we needed things done. They were able to move our wedding start time to accommodate exceptional sunset wedding photos without any issues! Talk about going above and beyond. Having them there with us on our big day was a definite must as everything was beautiful and problem free. They were also a blast to hang out with during all the pre-wedding activities. Our families absolutely loved the team. The only issue we had was not finding them as soon as we got engaged! We cannot thank Say I Do to Details enough for making our destination wedding a tropical glamorous dream. Thanks to Paola and Sandra for being our wedding gurus and keeping us on track. Best team for destination weddings!!

Professionalism and grace



Being a wedding planner for over 30 years, I have been part of an insurmountable number of weddings. So when the day came to plan and design the most important wedding ever — my daughter’s — I knew that as mother of the bride, I would need a planner for day of coordination.

Being a perfectionist with a somewhat commanding personality, it was going to be a challenge — that many planners would have shied away from — to carry out a wedding that my daughter and I had planned for months and months.

That is when I hired Say I Do to Details and never looked back. Paola and her team jumped in as if they had been a part of the planning since day one. They assured me that my daughter’s dream wedding would go off without a hitch — and it did thanks to Paola, Sierra and Sandra. Nothing was overlooked…even the smallest detail of sewing the father of the bride’s button on his tuxedo jacket moments before walking down the aisle!

Taking on a wedding where the mother of the bride is a wedding planner is not an easy feat but Paola and her team accomplished it with grace and professionalism down to the last detail.
As a mother of the bride AND a wedding planner, I would highly recommend Say I Do to Details!

The Perfect Day!

We hired Paola and her team at Say I Do to Details to run our big day for us, and we can't stop raving at how PERFECT the day actually was. Not a thing was forgotten, any little issue was resolved instantly, AND on top of that, Paola and her team re-purposed our arch flowers for beautiful additional decor inside the ballroom and which to me, was just above and beyond. Really couldn't have been happier with Say I Do to Details. Thanks for everything!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
