The Best Wedding Planner

Wanda was phenomenal, well organized, knowledgeable, and extremely professional. She's an expert in wedding planning. Her communication was on point and her price was reasonable. She made planning a destination wedding less stressful. Her recommendations for the vendors were exactly what we were looking for. She went above and beyond for us and was available whenever we needed her via email, text and phone call. When we had last minute changes for guests, Wanda was prepared. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. She made our dream wedding in Puerto Rico come true and exceeded our expectations. The wedding was perfect! All our guests were highly impressed by Wanda and the way our wedding turned out. If you want the best of the best, look no further. We can assure you that you won't be disappointed! Thank you Wanda for all your support and effort! You are truly a gem! -Elaine and Eric DeJesus

Made a dream come true

I will forever be eternally grateful for Wanda and how she executed our wedding. Her attention to detail, flexibility, ingenuity, wit, and level of execution is top notch. We not once felt stressed or worried. She was in constant communication. The day of the wedding went off flawlessly, it was perfect. I couldn’t have asked for someone better. Thank you!

Wonderful Wedding Planner

Wanda was wonderful! Her genuine interest in making sure our vision came to fruition for our somewhat non-traditional small wedding made working with her a pleasure. She kept us on track through the whole process of planning our destination wedding. Her vendor suggestions were fantastic, her communication was spot on, and her flexibility in accommodating our every request with grace really simplified what could have been a very complicated experience. We highly recommend working with Wanda Garcia!

Long distance wedding planning? Wanda Garcia will have you covered!

WG Special Events is an extraordinary wedding planner- there is too much to say in her praise for such a little space. First and foremost, she is professional, experienced, and tasteful all while being patient, warm, and kind. Wedding planning is stressful but Wanda always found a way to calm my nerves with her expertise.

As a bride and groom in California that had no idea what we wanted nor what was realistic to ask of ourselves, our vendors, or our venue within our budget in Puerto Rico, Wanda helped educate us and ultimately bring our ever changing wedding vision to reality. She helped us go from 0 to 100 in only 8 months!

With her years of experience in the industry, she brings so much to the table- she will help you book the right vendors for what you want, help you stay on top of your timeline, give you new ideas to improve your wedding day, and will always support what you want. She also makes herself available to you even if she is busy with plenty of clients and finds time to answer any all questions clearly. She is very thorough and organized as well, keeping track of everything you discuss, all of your contracts, and so on.

She actually single handedly prevented two major mishaps at our wedding. First when she was checking in with all the vendors to make sure everything was set for our wedding day, she found one of our vendors had not realized I had actually booked them and ensured they would be there on our day! Furthermore, the day before the wedding we realized two of my packages of stationary from Zola did not arrive (they arrived weeks after my wedding!) Wanda went out of her way to go to the store for me and make an entire set of new place cards and brought us table beautiful table numbers. Although I was frantic when we realized these things were missing, Wanda did everything in her power to keep me calm and make me a happy bride even if it though it added so much more to her own plate.

I am forever grateful to her and cannot recommend her enough. She will make sure you have a perfect day.

Wonderful to work with!

Wanda is phenomenal. I don't know how I would have survived the wedding planning process without her. Her support and hard work towards making our special day incredible and unforgettable was greatly appreciated. Not only were we grateful for her guidance but each person who interacted with her throughout this process from the vendors to the guests to our wedding party made it a point to mention how impressed they were by her professionalism and skill.

The Best of the Bestest Wedding Planner- look no more

My wedding took 2 years of planning and Wanda was there every step of the way. She is very knowledgeable of what she does, she is straight forward and cuts to the point.
She keeps you up dated with every detail, always keeps you in the loop.

She wants your wedding to be just as perfect as you want it. She goes beyond her duties. Very professional and gave us many recommendations which were all fabulous and ended up using.

Wanda is very detailed and very particular and again has years of experience in this industry and this is why we choose her.

If your looking for a planner LOOK NO MORE. Wanda is the ONE. Even my entire family said she is very good and they didn’t need to work with her. Just based on them seeing her work and direct they said she is a wonderful person. They all loved her and we love her. We built a great friendship throughout the 2 years and her last words to me were this is why she does what she does, the relationship she builds and seeing the results brings her happiness.

Wanda you are by far the best!! She’s not a 5 star. She’s a MILLION!!!!

Wanda is perfect!!!

Wanda really is an amazing planner. Throughout the entire process she kept great communication and provided recommendations of vendors that exceeded all of our expectations. If you are on the fence about it I would say absolutely hire Wanda, you will not regret it. Her expertise and thoroughness really made our wedding more than we could have ever asked for. I would recommend Wanda to anyone who is searching for an amazing planner (I already have two times and it’s only been one week since the wedding).

Best experience

We are so great full to have Wanda García help us plan our special day. This was a destination wedding and we were not familiar with the different processes in Puerto Rico, Wanda ensured our vision was translated into a magical weekend. Thank you so much for everything!

Wanda is amazing

I didn't think I needed a wedding planner lol. But there's so much stuff I didn't think about that is necessary for a wedding. Our wedding would not have happened without Wanda! Wanda understood our vision and the vibe we were going for while also keeping our budget in mind. She helped us find our venue and we used almost every vendor she recommended (they were all phenomenal, professional, and timely). Our wedding was so magical and absolutely NOTHING WENT WRONG. We owe it all to Wanda. Her expertise is unmatched, she is very professional, and well connected. She always asked what we wanted (and executed it perfectly!) and was able to stand up to the bold family members that thought they could tell her how things were going to go. Wanda is so amazing and absolutely knows what she's doing. Day of, her and her assistant handled everything. We didn't worry about a single thing. My husband and I were able to enjoy every second of our wedding. THANK YOU, WANDA!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
