Tropical Destination Management

The beach wedding of our dreams was made a reality thanks to Teresa! The day was intimate and family focused (only 12 of us) but she completely understood our needs, style and values and helped us every step of the way. All our planning was able to be done digitally without ever having to meet Teresa or her vendors in person. Just before arriving we had a COVID scare thanks to Omicron, but Teresa was patient, confident and did an amazing job calming my nerves with positive vibes. The day we finally arrived on the Island we met with Teresa and the Photographer (Anita from Brilliant Studios, also awesome) for the first time to review what we had planned over cocktails and became fast friends. We were totally prepped for a smooth wedding day, and it went exactly as Teresa laid out. Thanks completely to her super strong on island connections, organization, out going personality & professionalism! I couldn't have asked for anything more from our wedding coordinator.

Teresa went above and beyond for us, every step of the way! She made every detail so special, we couldn't have imagined such a beautiful wedding! Check out the pictures and decide for yourself, but my advice is to look no further.

Teresa was fabulous! Although our wedding was very intimate (my husband and I and our two daughters) there is no doubt in my mind that whether there had been 4 or 204 guests, Teresa would have pulled everything off amazingly. It was a fun, stress free day and exactly what we were looking for! Turks and Caicos is a very special place, and we are very thankful for our special day!
Thanks again Teresa! - Rory and Justin

Phenomenal. I planned an engagement proposal with planner Teresa and photographer James. Both provided exceptional service and made the experience beautiful. It was everything and more! They brought my proposal to life and I couldnt be happier with the end result.

I highly recommend Teresa and her team! Every detail was perfect! I met with Teresa in October 2019 to plan our January 2020 wedding for 60 guests. We did not have to do anything.. she had it all done. There were times I called her/text her and she reassured me it was all taken care of, and she was right. She planned for us the most amazing wedding weekend. From the early arrivals dinner, to the kickoff/rehearsal dinner, to the wedding, to the day after boat ride, and farewell dinner.. everything was perfectly planned. All of her vendors were so great to work with. My husband and I tried doing a few things on our own, but we learned the hard way on that... only use her contacts! She was very kind to both mine and my husbands parents, who are not great on their feet... helping them get around and making special accommodations for them to walk us down the aisle. The day of the wedding was windy.. she had it all figured out. She simply did not miss a beat. She even knew how to bustle my gown after the ceremony when my sister and bridesmaids could not get it right.
I keep getting told by all guests that it was the best wedding weekend. Thank you Teresa for making that happen, we would not change a thing.

We met Teresa with Tropical DMC in November 2018 when we were scouting Turks & Caicos for our November 2019 destination wedding. We were only on the island for three days and wanted to leave with a plan in place so we knew we would need some help. Teresa was great! After getting to know us and a feel for what our dream wedding looked like, she took everything we said into consideration and we spent the afternoon visiting the locations she thought would mesh with us and our tastes. I’m not going to lie, it was a long afternoon, but she killed it! We left with a decision on our locale and the decision to work with Teresa!

We are so thankful we had her throughout all of the planning and during our wedding week. She makes everything so easy and stress free by taking away a lot of the headaches a bride would normally have - finding, vetting & contracting countless vendors to name one.

I am a self proclaimed perfectionist with a touch of OCD, so you can imagine the anxiety I felt toward my wedding day especially since I wasn’t able to do anything hands-on. Teresa was very patient with me throughout the planning process and was always available to answer my never-ending questions and talk me through all of my crazy ideas.

Our wedding far exceeded our expectations, was an absolute dream and a huge success and that is mainly because of Teresa! We could not have done it without her! She was a pleasure to work with and if we had to do it all again, she would 100% be by our sides.

Very pleasant to work with. I didn’t have to lift a finger which is exactly what I wanted having a wedding in a place I’d never been before! She knew exactly what I wanted! Highly recommended!!

My husband and I had planned our wedding to be in Turks and Caicos but knew trying to plan a wedding so far away (we are based in the UK) would be extremely difficult. One evening after googling for the perfect place to stay I stumbled across Teresa’s website and instantly fell in love with the style of weddings she creates. After having a conversation with her and giving her our ideas it was done, the initial plans were drawn up and away Teresa went to ensure they became a reality.

Fast forward 12 months later and I woke up on my wedding day to Teresa and her team setting up our wedding in our beautiful Villa on Sapodilla Bay. Whilst I was getting ready, she worked absolute magic, I had so much trust in her that I left it to Teresa to make it perfect and the first time I saw everything was when I walked down the aisle.

Thank you so much for creating an absolutely stunning wedding ceremony, table setting, catering, music, the whole lot. I will be forever grateful for you ensuring I had the best day ever.

We hired Teresa to coordinate our April wedding on Grace Bay. We live in the U.S. but several people we know on Provo recommended Tropical Destination Management. We made the right choice. Teresa is a complete professional. Everything was perfect and easy from
start to finish. We wanted three days of elegant, easy events that we could enjoy with our guests and that’s what we received. It was absolutely perfect.

Planning process - Teresa was very accessible and helpful. The hardest parts were finalizing details that only my fiancé and I could determine in the end - choosing the venue, determining the readings and songs/playlists. You can trust that whatever vendor Teresa recommends will delight you and your guests. Everyone ended up exceeding our expectations. Our guests are well-traveled and connected and they had the most incredible week filled with love and joy.

Onsite coordination - Teresa was phenomenal onsite. She made us laugh, everything went off without a hitch, and we had the wedding of our dreams. All of our guests gushed about the week and several commented on how amazing our wedding coordinator was. You will feel like you have a friend by your side. I was calm and in the moment the entire day.

I have planned large-scale corporate events for hundreds of people in my past life so I am very knowledgeable about what an events coordinator should do. Teresa is a caring, detail-oriented professional who will help you achieve your vision. She rivals the best planners I have worked with and importantly, only works with trusted vendors who will all come through.

The best part of hiring Tropical Destination Management is letting go of managing all of the minutiae (before and during your wedding or event) and getting to focus on what really matters - being present and making memories with your loved ones. I would hire Teresa again in a heartbeat!

I cannot even beginning to explain how incredible our experience was with Tropical DMC and Teresa! This was obviously a destination wedding for us so planning from a far was my initial concern. Thankfully, we were directed towards Teresa and Tropical DMC! From the beginning she was so relaxed and professional! We finally met a short 3 months before the wedding and she was on top of EVERYTHING! All my questions were addressed before I even had the opportunity to ask them. When the day rolled around, it was honestly SEAMLESS! Teresa was one step ahead of everything! I also want to address that she took care of EVERYTHING. She was my only point of contact rather than having 5 different vendors to try and keep in contact with during the planning. A little side note, I also planned a wedding reception back home after the destination wedding and I was BEYOND shocked at how many people I had to talk to and how little my coordinator actually did. It only showed how much Teresa truly did on our big day and I am SO thankful she was there to literally make the magic unfold! THANK YOU! It was a real life DREAM.
