Amazing experience!

Monica and her team are amazing! They helped us last year to prepare for a very important, 21-year Vous renewal ceremony. Monica is very knowledgeable and her communication skills are awesome. She did everything we asked her for and even more. She is very thoughtful, professional, and great to work with. I’ll recommend her to all my family and friends.

Above and Beyond Experience! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

My husband and I held off planning a wedding for a few years, in all honesty, because we were fearful that we would not be able to afford the wedding of our dreams. The wedding planning process is daunting and expensive and planning an event internationally adds a layer of ‘unknowns’ to the mix. I had planned on doing everything myself (I have experience planning events, and I love planning), but quickly realized that internationally coordinating vendors, catering, decor, etc. was becoming more of a stressor rather than something to look forward to. After speaking with my photographer (Giulia Vasta), she recommended Monica and her team to see if she could just help with some of the logistics, but after meeting with Monica we decided to hire her as our vendor coordinator, in addition to being our day of coordinator. I do not write reviews lightly, and when I say Monica and her team went above and beyond to make our day the most incredible of our lives, I am not even slightly kidding. She was responsive from the second we signed our contract. I don’t think 24 hours ever passed before we received a response from her. She worked with us to update our quote throughout the process to ensure we stayed within our budget. She was calm, reassuring, and very professional on all of our calls leading up to the big day! Monica picked us up from the airport, helped arrange transportation for our guests, helped pick up groceries, got suits pressed, etc.- which relieved so many of the small stressors that add up when planning a wedding.

On the wedding day, Monica and her team truly went above and beyond. The tablescape and flower bouquets were more gorgeous than any Pinterest photo I had saved in the process, the furniture was gorgeous, the food delicious, and the timing was immaculate. Everything went off without a hitch, and Monica was so calm and reassuring all day. I cannot recommend Monica and her team enough. Seriously, if you are looking for a professional, who has an eye for design, is kind and thoughtful, and will create an event that is elevated beyond your wildest dreams- you need to hire Monica immediately! I know everyone speaks highly of their wedding day, but I seriously have no negative comments, or wish anything would have been different!

So grateful to have been connected with this amazing planner, and wish her nothing but success in her business in the future!

With love and gratitude,
Aspen and Tanner

Amazing, what I needed ✨

I’m so happy that we hired Monica and team! Getting married at Xcaret Mexico is overwhelming because even though it’s a beautiful property it’s huge. We needed support on handling vendors/Catholic wedding process. Our weekly calls were always fun, and flexible too. She helped us with our vision and made it come true! We ran into an issue with one of our vendors insurance the week of wedding and she solved it. Helped us keep our costs down as much as we could. The day of was insane in a good way! I felt like VIP, her team was there to assist with anything that I needed since the morning (making sure I ate and drank water, which I appreciate SO MUCH!). She also helped us with finding a boat excursion last minute for the day after. Honestly, if you are a bride and need support don’t think twice and just do it. Thank you Moni and team! ♥️
