Worth every penny!

My husband and I couldn’t be happier with how our wedding turned out under Natalias’s planning. Natalia allowed our vision to come to life despite living abroad and never officially visiting Mexico prior to our wedding day. Her choice of vendors and knowledge of our venue space gave us the confidence we needed to plan our special day stress-free. She was amazing at working with us until the fine details were ironed out and both of us were happy with the final quote. I would highly recommend Weddings on the Beach to any brides looking to get married in Riviera Maya.

Could of asked for more!

We had a destination wedding in Cancun and Natalia made the entire process effortless. She was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and resourceful, finding us everything we wanted (and things we didn’t even know we needed). She gave us the perfect catering and bartending team, kept us from making mistakes, and made sure the whole day ran flawlessly. We couldn’t recommend her more!

Phenomenal from planning to i do

My husband and I wanted a smaller destination wedding. When we started planning, we really didn’t know what we were doing. The hotels offer so many packages, at varying costs and offerings. We happened to come across Weddings on the Beach, and after our first meeting with Natalia, we felt at ease.

Through the planning process, we met virtually on multiple occasions, and shared our vision for our big day. Natalia helped us tremendously and guided us with her years of experience in creating the most beautiful day. Beyond anything we could have imagined!

The hotel we selected to host our wedding was really nice, but very challenging to work with. Slow responses, waiting to book services until 90 days out, etc. Despite this, Natalia managed all communications with the hotel, dealt with all of the vendors, and kept us all on track.

If it weren’t for Natalia, our day wouldn’t have been as special as it was. She really knocked it out of the park!

Excellent!

We got married at the stunning Villa La Joya, and working with Natalia as our wedding planner was truly one of the best decisions we made. From the very beginning, Natalia impressed us with her organization, attention to detail, and calm, confident presence. She kept us on track throughout the entire planning process and made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and even fun.

Natalia was always incredibly responsive, communicative, and proactive. No matter the question or request, she was on top of it -- always one step ahead and ready with a thoughtful solution. She also worked beautifully with all of our vendors and helped bring our vision to life with ease and grace.

We can’t thank her enough and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple planning a destination wedding. She made our dream day a reality.

Natalia is Amazing!

Now that we’ve received our professional wedding photos and had the chance to truly relive every moment, I felt compelled to express just how grateful we are for everything Natalia did to make our day absolutely perfect. Every detail was beautifully executed, every moment flowed seamlessly, and we were able to be fully present with each other and our loved ones—something we owe entirely to her expert planning, calm presence, and genuine care.

From our first meeting to the final send-off, Natalia was organized, creative, responsive, and an incredible listener. She translated our vision into something even more beautiful than we could have imagined. Seeing it all captured in photos just brings it all back: the florals, the timeline, the lighting, the energy—it was magic.

We truly couldn’t have done it without her, and we wouldn’t have wanted to. Natalia, Thank you for giving us the best day of our lives.

Natalia is the absolute best!!!!

From the very start, Natalia was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and always kept our budget in mind while still making our DREAM wedding come to life. She was so easy to talk to and always got the job done, no matter the task. On the wedding day, she was there for a little outfit emergency, handling everything seamlessly so we could enjoy our special day stress-free. She is extremely knowledgeable in wedding planning. She has great communication and an excellent rapport with vendors in Mexico. I know a lot of Brides don’t always have the privilege of saying that wedding planning was stress free but in all honesty Natalia made wedding planning stress-free. Her work ethic and expertise truly made my wedding planning experience a memorable one. Multiple guests have said our wedding was “The wedding of the century” and that compliment alone shows just how incredible the planning was. We truly couldn’t have done it without her, and we are forever grateful!

The absolute best!

Natalia and her team were an absolute dream to work with. When we decided to have our destination wedding in Mexico we knew we’d need some help and that’s when we found Natalia. After speaking to her on the phone we knew she was the perfect fit. She was so sweet and also very transparent. With years of experience she was able to give us the best recommendation for vendors; who all turned out to be amazing. The wedding planning process was pretty peaceful since Natalia handled everything so my now husband and I were so relaxed throughout the whole process and didn’t feel like wedding planning had taken over our lives. We always had a million questions for Natalia and she was so good about answering all of our questions and putting us at ease. We had discussed a vision for the wedding day and she along with the vendors executed it beyond what we could have ever imagined. Our wedding turned out great all due to Natalia, her team, and the vendors she recommended. We highly recommend her!!

A Dream Wedding Come True in Riviera Maya Thanks to Natalia

From the instant we began dreaming up our wedding in the stunning Riviera Maya, Natalia was our rock, our creative genius, and our wedding day superhero. Her role transcended that of a traditional planner; she was the mastermind, painting our big day with broad strokes of perfection.

Understanding our vision from the get-go, Natalia transformed our dreams into reality. She navigated the planning maze with finesse, ensuring every detail, from the decorations to the schedule, reflected us. Her flair for design and her impeccable taste turned our wedding into a masterpiece, and everyone who went told us a million times over.

But where Natalia truly shined was in her selection of vendors. She introduced us to the crème de la crème—the florists, caterers, bartenders, videographers, fireworks, and DJ who went above and beyond. It was clear she had handpicked these vendors over years, choosing only those who matched her high standards.

Natalia's magic didn't stop with the wedding. She went the extra mile, organizing an additional Welcome Event at a nearby resturaunt that became the cherry on top of our celebration. This extra gathering was as flawlessly executed and beautifully realized as the main event, making our wedding festivities all the more memorable.

Communicating with Natalia was a breeze. Despite the daunting task of organizing a destination wedding, she made it all seem easy. Quick to respond and always professional, Natalia was more than just our planner; she was our trusted advisor, our problem solver, and sometimes, our sounding board.

What makes Natalia stand out is her unparalleled professionalism, her profound knowledge of Riviera Maya's wedding scene, and her innate ability to manage our budget like a maestro. She knew exactly where to cut costs without cutting corners and where to indulge to make our day truly special. Her guidance was priceless, allowing us to splurge on what really mattered while keeping our finances in check.

Hiring Natalia was, without a doubt, the best decision we made for our wedding. She didn’t just plan a wedding; she curated an experience that exceeded our wildest dreams. Her dedication, skill, and passion are unmatched. If you're looking for the person who will turn your wedding day into the magical event you’ve always envisioned, Natalia is your go-to. She’s not just a wedding planner; she’s a weaver of dreams.

Natalia, thank you for making our Riviera Maya wedding a treasure we’ll hold close forever. Your outstanding service, professionalism, and heartfelt dedication have left an everlasting imprint on us that we'll never forget. We are lucky to call you not only our wedding planner, but our friend (and we have the photos to prove it!)

Tulum villa wedding

Natalia was absolutely exceptional in every way. Our son had planned an impromptu second wedding celebration after discovering his fiancée was pregnant and eloping. They booked a large villa so that family and friends could come and celebrate a small exchange of vows to each other and their new step children, just a casual gathering, in lieu of a traditional wedding at a venue. Natalia helped us navigate negotiations with the villa management (who at one point said we weren't even allowed to have an event there!) and managed to pull everything together within just a few days of the gathering. Furniture rentals, arch for the ceremony, flowers, DJ, photographer, videographer, hair and makeup artists, a chef and team to cater the dinner, she even helped us find a wonderful venue for the welcome dinner the night before the wedding. It turned out beautifully, as if it had been planned months in advance. Natalia absolutely saved the day for us, and the wedding was just amazing, so much more than any of us could have dreamed would be possible on such short notice. I highly recommend Natalia!

Wedding Planner

Hello, my name is Briana and I am a former wedding planner who had the honor of helping my good friends Melissa and Dylan plan their wedding in Cancun.

Since I was a guest at the wedding, we knew we wanted to hire a full service local planner. I helped Melissa (the bride) interview a few planners in the area and with out a question landed with Natalia.

Natalia was SO amazing! She was great at communicating and providing suggestions. She understood the Bride’s vision and exceeded expectations. She also provided great vendors recommendations and helped us stay within budget.

Natalia was such a delight to work with, we are all sad the wedding is over! We highly recommend working with her!
