Norlene was a pleasure to work with and from reading previous reviews I knew she would be! She has an eye for design and great recommendations- everything was beautiful and “worked” because of her. She is very flexible and will provide you with whatever you want letting you know from her experience what works best (e.g. led candles may work better than regular because wind/ that tropical flower is beautiful but stains- here are similar options that don’t). We had a beach ceremony and then were legally married in town - she drove us the day we went in town - stayed connected with us after the marriage was performed and she was paid and made sure we received our translated documents before we left for home - paying extra for a rush and not passing that additional cost on to us. Her quote was reasonable and only changed when I made changes. Very happy :)

We have planned our wedding since the summer of 2016 on St. Martin island in Caribbean, and our wedding date was planned for the date of 9/9/2017. Unfortunately, our 2-week trip was ruined by the hurricane Irma and within 12 hours (before our flight to St.Martin) we were forced to decide what to do, if to cancel our wedding/honeymoon altogether or if we should try to find another place to go to. We knew nothing of Aruba, just the fact it is in Caribbean and below the hurricane belt. The decision was made and the race against time began. My husband Matt was so gracious and understanding, you can only imagine our disappointment that all our wedding plans were gone... Matt managed to find Norlene, our new wedding planner within hours and without my knowledge, too. We flew to Aruba on Saturday night and that was the day Matt told me all about it. I was in shock, thinking, we are not going to get married at all. Norlene was able to accommodate us, finding a place, a photographer and a reverend very last minute (she literally had less than one week). THAT is unheard of in the wedding business!! We ended up having a wedding of our dreams, on the beach with the nicest people we could possibly have around. We will be eternally grateful for everything Norlene has done for us, going above and beyond, and pulling it off in an unbelievable time frame. Thank you, Norlene, we will never forget you, our reverend Diane and our wonderful photographer Paul. THANK YOU!!! <3

YES I DO ARUBA (Norlene Edwards) made our day very special. Everything was perfect! She made everything happen that we wanted. The sunset ceremony, romantic dinner, decorations, transportation for our guests, seating set up, the photographer (Doug), hairstylist, the driver and the minister were all the BEST!!!!

Norelene made it happen, evn with resistance from the venue. I used Yes I do for day of planning because I had already confirmed everything before deciding on local help. She filled the gaps and delivered! SHe surprised me with items I didnt think I could have due to customs. Highly recommend

Norlene was a pleasure to work with, she anticipated my needs and even found items that I didnt think I would be able to have because of customs. SHE MADE IT HAPPEN. Even though the venue did not appreciate a third party planner.

You will be in great hands. Norlene did a beautiful job, take her advise on everything and you will have a fantastic wedding.
Paul was our photographer and we cannot put into words how very wonderful the pictures were. He melted into the crowd and you never new he was capturing the most wonderful moments.
We already new Norlene from staying at Manchebo and watching other wedding that she had done, You will love her bright and bubbly personality and her knowledge and grasp of what you want. She is well respected in her field and knows all the right people to give you just what you want.

What a great choice! Everything came together so well. The flowers, the cake, the photographer, the venue, the decorations, the bartender ;-) were all so great. Ms. Norlene was a pleasure to work with and handled all the details of the paperwork and civil ceremony too. It was the best!

l live almost 7000km (4000 miles) away from the beautiful beaches of Aruba. Faced with distance and wedding planning fully conducted via email, Yes I Do provided us with the exact wedding we dreamed of. Everything moved like clockwork and I couldn't be more grateful to Norlene.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
