I cannot recommend Fenella and her team at Awesome Caribbean Weddings Enough!! They are so affordable, extremely professional and responsive. I communicated with them via email for over a year, planning my dream wedding in St. Lucia, before finally flying to St. Lucia and meeting with Fenella in person a couple of days before our wedding. Her and her whole team were so delightful and they made my vision a reality!! -

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Awesome Caribbean Weddings! From the very beginning, their team was incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day uniquely ours.
They asked thoughtful questions that we never would have even considered and took the time to truly get to know us as a couple. We are far from traditional when it comes to weddings, and instead of trying to fit us into a standard wedding template, they embraced our vision and helped create a day that reflected who we are. Every detail felt personal and meaningful.
One thing we especially appreciated was how flexible they were with our budget. They worked with us to create the wedding we wanted while allowing us to allocate our budget in the ways that mattered most to us. We never felt pressured into anything and always felt supported in our choices.
The entire team was upbeat, positive, and genuinely fun to work with. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but they made the process exciting and enjoyable. Their happiness and enthusiasm were contagious and made us look forward to every interaction.
Our planner, Fanella, was simply the best. We truly cannot imagine going through this experience without her. She was attentive, thoughtful, organized, and always seemed to think of things before we did. She made us feel cared for every step of the way and was a huge reason why our day turned out so perfectly.
Communication throughout the entire planning process was excellent. Once we arrived in St. Lucia, they met with us in person to review every detail, answer questions, and make sure we felt confident and excited about the day ahead.
On our wedding day, everything flowed so smoothly. Even when a few things didn't go exactly according to plan, their team handled it seamlessly and professionally. We never had to worry about a thing because they were always one step ahead. Their experience, calm presence, and attention to detail made all the difference.
We also have to give a special shout-out to our photographer, Brent, and our videographer, Tarrick. They were absolutely incredible. They were professional, talented, and so easy to work with. They captured our day beautifully while making us feel comfortable, relaxed, and able to simply enjoy every moment. We are beyond grateful for the memories they helped preserve.
Our wedding day was truly one of the best days of our lives, and we have Awesome Caribbean Weddings to thank for helping make it so magical. If we could go back and do it all over again, we wouldn't change a thing. We would choose them every single time.
We wholeheartedly recommend Awesome Caribbean Weddings to anyone planning a destination wedding in St. Lucia. They exceeded every expectation and gave us memories we will cherish forever. -

Jennifer Sent on 02/17/2026This company is great! Highly recommend.
Fenella and her group are sensational and easy to work with. We picked the venue and date and she did the rest of the work! It was super easy to come to a different country and not be stressed about planning a wedding ceremony. Our pricing included her services, location, photography, flowers, bridal hair and makeup, and marriage officer. Fenella also provides reasonable payment plans as well. Hannah did my make up and came to the Air BnB we were staying at and I loved it!. Karen did my hair, also at the Air BnB and did an amazing job as well. Daniel was an excellent photographer, putting us in cute poses with great natural light.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Thank you Jenifer and Matthew for those kind words. It was an absolute pleasure assisting you with your special day. It was a truly beautiful day! Wishing you both the very best.

Perfect Cruise Day Private Ceremony
Michele and her team made our St. Lucia cruise wedding absolutely perfect. In just three months, they coordinated everything from same-day license processing to venue setup, makeup, and ceremony details. Everything we discussed came together flawlessly. The private charter back to our ship with a chef and crew was the perfect ending. Zero stress, all joy. Highly recommend!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Brionna and Khaled,
It was absolutely my pleasure! Even now, remembering how Khaled sang to you Brionna when you walked down the aisle gives me goosebumps!

![Halle]()
Halle Sent on 12/15/2025Best Day Ever Thanks to Michele and her Team!
We originally began searching for a vendor once we knew we wanted to get married in St. Lucia, and that is how we found Awesome Caribbean Weddings. From the very beginning, Michele demonstrated the highest level of professionalism. You can immediately tell she does this because she genuinely loves what she does.
For nearly the first year, Michele spent time simply educating us. She shared examples of past weddings, pricing ranges, and different options her clients had chosen, while also taking the time to truly understand our vision and what our ideal day looked like. At no point did she pressure us to commit or pay upfront. We were able to consult, ask questions, and explore everything thoroughly before moving forward, which made the entire experience feel comfortable and stress free.
As the planning progressed, Michele made everything incredibly easy. From vendor selection to the smallest details and the biggest decisions, she handled it all seamlessly. We had a group of 46 guests, mostly traveling from Florida, and she made me feel completely confident that I could show up and everything would be taken care of. All costs were communicated clearly ahead of time, and there were no surprises. She was extremely communicative and always easy to reach.
To put things into perspective, the total cost of our entire wedding was comparable to what we would have paid for just a venue in Charlotte, North Carolina, without any inclusions. Instead, we were married near the Pitons, enjoyed a sunset catamaran cruise, and hosted a dinner at Jacques with an open bar. Everything was beautiful and absolutely worth it.
Whenever we had a question or concern, Michele was quick to provide a solution, which made the entire process feel effortless. I truly cannot recommend Awesome Caribbean Weddings enough for anyone planning an event in St. Lucia. My husband and I are already talking about planning a family celebration in a few years just so we can work with Michele again.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Oh wow, thank you so much Halle and Jeff, I am actually pretty speechless - and that doesn't happen often!!
I am just so happy to hear what a special day you had and how much everyone enjoyed themselves, you absolutely created the right vibe and knew what would work for you and your group.
I hope you get to keep on hanging out with your awesome family and friends and enjoy every moment of your married life together.
Much love,
Michele xx -

Connor Sent on 11/23/2025Fenella Understood Our Vision Completely (Feb 2025)
Planning a destination wedding can be challenging, but Fenella was an invaluable and knowledgeable guide every step of the way. We envisioned a unique celebration, not a typical resort wedding, and Fenella completely understood our desire for local flowers, cuisine, and the stunning backdrop of the Pitons.
From the start, her expertise shone through. Fenella connected us with a fantastic team who flawlessly brought our dreams to life. While there was substantial detail to navigate, Fenella was always available for touchpoint meetings, ensuring we were aligned. Fenella brought such positive energy and kindness to the planning process. What truly impressed us was Fenella's willingness to embrace our unique choices. She enthusiastically took on the challenge of hosting our ceremony on the yoga deck at Stonefield Resort – a first for ACW – and her positive attitude was infectious... and our moody tropical flower arrangements were breathtaking - she understood the assignment! Thanks to Fenella's hard work and dedication, our wedding day at Stonefield Resort was everything we had hoped for and more. It was unique, wonderful, and exactly the non-resort feel we desired, with a beautiful moody tropical vibe. And most importantly, the day went smoothly. We cannot emphasize enough that everything went perfectly - not many people can say this about their wedding day. Fenella knocked it out of the park. We are so grateful for her expertise in making our destination wedding a dream come true, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to any couple planning a wedding!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Awww... thank you Connor and Elizabeth for those kind words. It was an absolute pleasure assisting you with your special day. We're always happy to try out new venues. :) So thrilled I was able to capture your vision. You guys are an awesome couple. I wish you the very best and hope to see you again... xoxoxo Fenella -

The Awesome Caribbean Weddings team completely exceeded my expectations! I worked personally with Fanella who was nothing short of amazing. I was so nervous planning from out of the country, but they were so detailed, organized, and professional — not a single thing went wrong. The whole team worked together so smoothly, and you can tell they really know what they’re doing. Our day couldn’t have been more perfect. I’d recommend them to anyone getting married here, you’ll love the experience just as much as we did!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:

Wedding in paradise!
My husband (love saying this!) and I wanted to have a wedding just the two of us. Michelle and Fenella took all the pressure out of organizing, and creating our perfect day! No ask was too big and everything was simply amazing.
They even arranged a catamaran dinner for us as our "reception".
I don't wish to marry again, but if I could, I would always go with this team. Perhaps vowel renewal in a few years!
Thank you so much to you all. I'm still amazed by the flowers!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Stephanie and Ben,
Both Fenella and I loved being a part of your special day - I told her how much she had missed out on by not being there on the day itself!!!

Kenna Sent on 08/10/2025Absolutely amazing!
We’re from Las Vegas and planned a symbolic ceremony in Saint Lucia with the help of Awesome Caribbean Weddings — and we can’t say enough amazing things about Michele and her team!
From start to finish, Michele made the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. She helped us coordinate a breathtaking ceremony on a private beach at Pigeon Island that felt like something out of a movie. Every detail was taken care of — from arranging day-of transfers for all our guests to and from the hotel, to setting up our dinner at Jacques afterward (which was incredible!).
She also arranged hair and makeup services and coordinated all the necessary transportation. Michele provided us with great options for a photographer, videographer, and officiant, each of whom made the day even more special.
Her professionalism, local expertise, and genuine care made all the difference. Everything turned out even better than we could have imagined, and we are forever grateful. If you’re considering a destination wedding in Saint Lucia, look no further — Awesome Caribbean Weddings is truly the best.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Kenna and Kyle,
Thank you so much! Your kind words mean so much to all of us and I will surely pass on your comments and thanks to all our vendors.
I wish you all the happiness in the world, you guys truly deserve it.

The Best Decision We Made for Our Wedding – 1000% Recommend Michele!
Hiring ACW/Michele as our wedding planner in St. Lucia was, hands down, one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire wedding process. From the moment we signed up with her—sight unseen—we knew we were in great hands. We emailed and met with her a year prior to the wedding, and from that point on, everything was absolutely seamless.
Michele took our vision and turned it into something truly magical. We didn’t have to research vendors, worry about logistics, or stress over details—she handled everything with expertise, care, and a calming presence that made the entire journey enjoyable. Even when we had a couple of last-minute changes, Michele handled them with ease and professionalism, never skipping a beat.
Our wedding day was beyond what we dreamed of. We had our ceremony at the breathtaking Piton View, followed by a catamaran cocktail hour on the water (unforgettable!), and ended the evening with a beautiful reception at Jacques in Rodney Bay. Every part of the day flowed perfectly, and every detail reflected our style and love story.
Thanks to Michele, we were able to be fully present and truly enjoy each moment. We will be reliving this day forever—it was that special. We do not regret a single thing, and we would recommend Michele 1000% to anyone planning a wedding in St. Lucia. She is incredible at what she does and genuinely cares about making your day perfect.

The perfect wedding on our cruise!
Fenella organised the perfect Caribbean wedding for us, we are so so grateful for her support and amazing organisational skills too! We probably weren't the easiest couple to organise- we wanted a St Lucia wedding as one of the stops on our cruise, I'm also vegan with a nut allergy- but she made everything flow perfectly for us, even when my ADHD brain got overwhelmed with all the choices and decisions we had to make, she jumped on a zoom call to speak it through.
She has a lovely relaxed demeanour which is just what you need on your wedding day, no question was too silly and she really made the day feel perfectly us 🥰
Thank you for your speedy replies, thank you for organising our perfect day! -

Deb G. Sent on 01/18/2025Amazing Experience!!
If you want a truly unique, curated wedding planning experience, Fenella and the Awesome Caribbean Weddings group are the way to go. Once my now husband and I decided to do a destination wedding in St Lucia we reached out to Awesome Caribbean because they seemed to really fit our needs in terms of ceremony/reception locations and the services they provided. I’m not someone who has always dreamed of every little detail of my wedding from childhood, and was a bit overwhelmed by the wedding planning process; I really didn’t know everything that needed planned to make a wedding happen. But Fenella made the process so easy and from the start she sent pages of information showing sites we could pick from, décor we could use, options for music, and so much more. They were always very upfront about what they could do and the costs associated with it. We started planning just about a year out from the wedding and Fenella was always extremely prompt in getting back to me about any questions or requests I had. I actually did a trip there the summer before the wedding to sort out some details for accommodations and Fenella took the time to meet with me at the ceremony location site and show me around.
Fenella is so organized while maintaining an upbeat attitude. Halfway through the planning process we completely changed our minds about where the reception would occur and Fenella didn’t bat an eye; She just gave us options for a new reception location and catering that would work better for our overall plan for the day. She was consistently able to accommodate our wants while providing guidance when it was needed (which was often).
Getting married outside of your home country can be a bit stressful because there are so many unknowns like legalities and not being able to see everything ahead of time. Fenella made sure we knew when we needed to make decisions by, submit required documents, and make all payments. I was able to send her pictures of what I was thinking in terms of décor, flowers, and set up and on the wedding day we were BLOWN AWAY. We couldn’t stop thanking her the whole night because it was just amazing what she was able to do. She perfectly created what we were looking for!
Awesome Caribbean is connected with THE BEST vendors as well; there were so many menu options to choose from for our catering and everyone mentioned how delicious all the food was. The photographer took incredible pictures and made us feel extremely comfortable working with him throughout the day. The violinist sounded beautiful and really set the mood for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Our flowers and décor looked stunning and were just what we’d asked for. The DJ was able to play some special requests during dinner and then kept everyone dancing until the end of the night. And my hair and makeup were amazing! I was worried about humidity being a problem (and we did have especially perfect weather) but my hair and makeup lasted all night!
I couldn’t recommend Fenella, Awesome Caribbean Weddings, and the vendors they work with enough. I feel so grateful for everything they did for us and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to start the rest of our lives.

Yvette Sent on 12/15/2024The best experience
My husband and I have nothing but incredible things to say about Michele and her team at Awesome Caribbean Weddings.
I (Bride) work in the wedding and event industry and Michele’s attention to detail and organizational skills are unrivalled. I’d also like to mention that she is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable about the island, hands on and an absolute breeze to work with. She helped us arrange every aspect of our wedding week such as; cameraman, videographers, booking a catamaran cruise day trip for our guests, chair and marquee rentals for our welcome party at a rental villa plus hair and make up for the bridal party on the wedding day.
None of our questions were ever too silly, and no idea too grand. She rose to the occasion every time and helped us make ideas and dreams a reality. There’s absolutely no way our wedding could have been a fraction of the dream it was, without her presence and expertise. To epitomise how integral Michele was, she stood in as our officiant at the wedding ceremony when the original choice became unavailable !
She is an absolute Gem and we couldn’t recommend her company more. 10 + stars.✨Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Yvette and Adrian,
I am so going to miss you guys! I loved every minute of working with you to plan your wedding, all of our chats and messages over the year and of course getting to know you better when you came out to visit. I especially loved getting to know your families and friends, it's evident just how loved you both are.
I wish continued love and happiness to you and your growing family.

Lauren Sent on 10/26/2024A Dream Wedding Made Effortless – Thank You, Michele & ACW!
We had the immense pleasure of working with Michele from Awesome Caribbean Weddings (ACW), and WOW – we couldn’t have asked for a better planner! From start to finish, Michele took care of everything with incredible attention to detail. She even gave us amazing recommendations on where to stay, and in hindsight, we probably should have taken her up on those so we could have tapped into her top-notch makeup and hair vendors more easily!
What stood out most was how attentive Michele was to our needs and interests. She genuinely wanted the best for us, never adding pressure, and always keeping communication open and smooth. It felt like we were in the best hands the entire time!
When it came to choosing a venue, ACW had so many stunning options! We ultimately went with the Piton View venue—the breathtaking scenery made it the perfect backdrop for our intimate ceremony. But whether you’re dreaming of a beachfront, garden, or luxury resort setting, they’ve got an incredible selection to suit any vision.
On the big day, all we had to do was show up and love each other—Michele and her team handled everything else flawlessly. From managing bookings, set-up, and transportation to coming in clutch as the bobby pin hero right before I walked down the aisle, she thought of every little detail! Knowing we didn’t have to worry about a single thing made the day even more magical.
Michele’s vendor recommendations were absolutely spot on! Our photographer, Daniel, was fantastic—everyone has been raving about the pictures, and we had a blast shooting with him. He captured our day beautifully, with each shot better than we could have imagined. And the flowers left me completely blown away! Michele’s florist brought my unique bouquet request to life with a beautiful island twist that was even better than I had dreamed of.
Michele kept things so organized and seamless that my husband could relax and enjoy the moment without lifting a finger. He didn’t just survive wedding planning—he actually had fun (which says it all)!
Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony like ours or a big celebration, I can confidently say Michele and the ACW team will exceed your expectations. If you’re dreaming of getting married in St. Lucia, you can stop searching—Michele is the planner you need!
Thank you, Michele and ACW, for helping us create such a beautiful, love-filled day we’ll cherish forever!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Lauren and Jeff,
You've made my heart sing :-) What wonderfully kind words, I cannot express how much your review means to myself and all of our vendors.
I wish you and Jeff a lifetime of love and happiness, you absolutely deserve nothing but the best.

Words will never be able to describe how grateful I am for Michele. We worked together for 2 years planning my dream wedding in St. Lucia, which consisted of a beautiful ceremony site, a catamaran cocktail hour and a stunning/lively reception. Michele responded to every email promptly and truly made my vision into a real life fairytale. She truly made the wedding planning process relaxing and fun. Even when I hit a snag when planning my reception with the resort we were staying at, I vented to Michele and she immediately had a new plan up and running for me within a mere few hours. Finding someone as genuine and who is also the best at their job is difficult to come by so truly look no further. Michele and Awesome Caribbean Weddings is #1!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Aw, I miss you guys already! Thank you for taking the time to write this Danielle, it really is appreciated by myself and my team. You were an absolute pleasure to work with over the two years of planning, and your wedding day was just fabulous.

I wish you and Brian all the happiness in the world, you deserve nothing less.

Awesome Caribbean Wedding May 2024
I found Awesome Caribbean Weddings on Facebook and the photos drew me in. I was in touch with Fenella who was absolutely amazing. She was very quick at responding to all of my questions and emails. She made the whole process from planning to the wedding day go so smooth. I had friends and family ask me how wedding planning was going throughout the year and I always said I haven’t done much because Fenella has taken care of it all. Little to no stress throughout the planning stages. Fenella met up with us when we arrived in St. Lucia and went over what the day was going to look like. When a thought would come up that we might have missed or forgot something she would say I already have that taken care of. It was nothing short of a perfect day and we would not have changed anything. I highly recommend Fenella and Awesome Caribbean Wedding to anyone who is looking into doing a destination wedding! Also, shout out to Brent for the beautiful photos! -

Five stars simply aren't enough to express our gratitude to Michele and the incredible team at Awesome Caribbean Weddings. From the very beginning, they worked tirelessly to turn our dream wedding into a reality, surpassing all expectations. Michele's expertise of everything St. Lucia and her passion for her work shone through every step of the way.

Thanks so much to Fenella at Awesome Caribbean weddings for helping us plan our wedding day! We wanted a very simple but special day, and Fenella understood that from the beginning. We put all our trust into her! Our day was beautiful and we didn’t have anything to stress about at all throughout the day or planning process.
From the boat, to the beautiful restaurant setting, everything was perfect. Thank you Fenella. Highly recommend Awesome Caribbean weddings.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:

Natalie Sent on 02/04/2024Magical Memories: Our Dream Wedding in St. Lucia with Awesome Caribbean Weddings
We are absolutely thrilled to share our heartfelt testimonial for the incredible wedding ceremony and reception that took place at the Historical Ruins in St. Lucia, followed by the wedding reception at Jacques Waterfront.
Originally, we planned to wed in January 2025, but fate had other ideas. Our family trip to St. Lucia from December 31st, 2023, prompted a change of heart. We yearned for an intimate ceremony there, reflecting our love, surrounded by loved ones. St. Lucia, with its charm and special meaning to my husband, became the perfect destination.
Our search led us to Awesome Caribbean Weddings via Google. The glowing reviews and heartfelt testimonials from past couples caught our attention. We reached out, unaware that this choice would lead us to our dream wedding.
From our very first interaction with Fenella and her team, it became abundantly clear that we had found the perfect match. The distance of 4,000 miles between us was never a barrier. Planning a wedding can be an incredibly stressful endeavor, especially during a time when we were both navigating new beginnings. I had just started a new job, and we were diligently saving towards our dream wedding in 2025. This, coupled with the fact that we needed assistance to stay within our budget, made choosing the right wedding planner of paramount importance.
The entire planning process was seamless and stress-free, thanks to Fenella's exceptional organisational skills and her ability to turn our ideas into a reality. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and warm personality made us feel like we were in the most capable hands throughout the entire journey. Fenella and her team not only embraced our vision but also helped us navigate the intricacies of planning a destination wedding with finesse. They ensured that every detail was meticulously taken care of, from finding the perfect location to coordinating with vendors and creating a day that was nothing short of magical.
The wedding ceremony at the Historical Ruins was nothing short of a fairytale. From the Steel Pan Band to the simple yet effective decor, every element came together seamlessly. A heartfelt thank you goes out to our marriage officer, Danielle "Lulu" Bergass. Her vibrant spirit and melodic voice added an enchanting touch to our ceremony, making it truly unforgettable. As we exchanged our vows in this historical and picturesque setting, our hearts overflowed with joy. We'd also like to extend our gratitude to the talented videographer, Tarrick Alexander. He skillfully captured the essence of our wedding ceremony, creating a beautiful short video compilation that perfectly encapsulates the magic of the moment.
Following the ceremony, we made our way to Jacques Waterfront for our wedding reception, and once again, Fenella and her team exceeded all expectations. The venue was beautifully decorated, the service impeccable, and the cuisine exquisite. Our guests continue to rave about the delicious food and the overall ambiance of the evening.
Fenella, your attention to detail, creative vision, and unwavering commitment to ensuring our day was perfect left us in awe. Thank you so much!
To anyone looking for a wedding planner in St. Lucia, we wholeheartedly recommend Awesome Caribbean Weddings. They turned our dreams into reality and gave us a wedding day that will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
Best wishes,
Natalie and Francis xx

Skylar Sent on 01/09/2024AWESOME Experience with Awesome Caribbean Weddings
I cannot express how incredible our experience with Michele from Awesome Caribbean Weddings was in helping us plan our special day. From the moment we first reached out for information up until the end of our reception, Michele made the process so easy and actually enjoyable. We are genuinely sad to no longer be working with her now that our wedding is over, but we now consider her a good friend and hope to see her during future visits to St. Lucia.
When we initially reached out, I could tell Michele was truly dedicated to understanding our vision and getting to know us. She was very thoughtful in providing feedback and recommendations. She even helped us with resort recommendations when I was trying to secure guest accommodations and find a reception space. I could tell that she was committed to ensuring our day was a reflection of us and our story, and her attention to detail was unmatched.
The guidance and support provided by Awesome Caribbean Weddings made the planning process a breeze. It is so easy to get overwhelmed with all of the wedding details, and while that still happened to me on occasion, Michele's organization and approach to planning made it very manageable. She was very responsive and on top of things, ensuring we never missed a deadline. She provided extremely valuable input on what would look nice, details or decor that may be missing, and she even helped me pick a bridesmaid dress color based on our floral selections. I appreciated that she was honest in terms of what would help us achieve the look we wanted without steering us toward more expensive options. She also handled all of the vendor communications for the most part, and the quality of the vendors she uses is just impeccable. Based on our experience with Michele, I trusted that she would use the best vendors and not sacrifice quality for price, but she still was able to secure great rates. The only vendor of ours that was not one ACW works with was our photographers, as we used a company we've worked with previously (plus they're good friends). I put off planning pretty much until the last 3 months, but everything came together even better than we could have imagined.
Our wedding day was an absolute DREAM. We chose the Piton View venue for our ceremony and held our reception at Stonefield Villa Resort (based on Michele's recommendation). It was important to us to let the destination and views speak for themselves, and just enhance the experience with simple touches. Awesome Caribbean Weddings absolutely delivered. Our guests are still raving about the views and flower arch from the ceremony, the steel pan band from cocktail hour, and the food served for dinner. When I walked into the reception space, I was blown away by seeing how it all came together. Having Michele and other members of her team there throughout the entire day allowed us to really enjoy every moment and not stress. I knew we were in good hands.
To anyone considering a destination wedding in St. Lucia, I will always recommend working with Awesome Caribbean Weddings. They will bring your vision to life and exceed all of your expectations. We will be forever grateful for Michele and all she did to make our dreams a reality.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Skylar and Paul,
I really do not know how to express what your heartfelt words mean to me and my team and all I can do is say a massive thank you!
I am looking forward to sitting down with you two and glass of wine or two and catching up the next time you visit!
I wish you all the love and happiness in the world.

Morgan Sent on 12/29/2023Absolutely amazing
I was never the person to pre-plan my wedding, so when my boyfriend at the time proposed, I had no idea where to even begin. Being a planner by nature and career, of course I wanted everything to be perfect. After looking at a couple different islands to host our wedding (St Lucia being the very first location we looked at) our minds kept taking us back to those beautiful pictures we had seen of St Lucia and finally we decided that is where we would have it.
After a google search of wedding planning companies in St Lucia, the first that came up in my search was Awesome Caribbean Weddings and we are glad we didn’t look at any others. Right from the start, Michele was quick to respond and set up an initial Video chat meeting to find out some details of our dream wedding to start the planning process. We knew right from the get-go that we were in good hands for our special day and there would be nothing to worry about even with a decent sized wedding guest list. Despite my excessive amounts of questions, Michele continued very responsive and professional communication over the next year of planning and made sure to keep track of every little detail and every little change (there was many) that came her way. At the time I had 5 other friends planning their weddings as well, with each one of them at different points commenting on the stressful time they were having trying to plan everything out. I can honestly say that I didn’t have any moments of stress throughout the planning process because Michele was on top of everything including all the vendors. The vendors that we picked from her wonderful network, Daniel (photography), Hannah (Makeup), Flora (hairstylist), LuLu (officiant), Yannick (Violinist), DJ Romanus, Jacques (Food service at reception) all provided amazing and professional service to not only us but all our guests.
Honestly, everything went absolutely perfect. The ceremony was simple but more beautifully decorated than I ever could have imagined and really made the backdrop for our vows just incredible with amazing tunes by Yannick. The transportation for our entire party was timely with professional and friendly drivers. The reception set up was perfect despite the large crowd of guests we had with plenty of space on the dance floor with an amazing DJ who kept the party going all night long. The food was absolutely to die for (some guests a week later even told us how they were day dreaming about the food at Jacques). Everyone kept raving about how amazing and fun our wedding was, some stating that it was even more fun than their own. We wish we could take credit for it but truly all the credit goes to Michele. Michele did such an amazing job ensuring the wedding was so personalized to what we wanted and that our special day was everything we could have wanted and more. If you are looking to book your wedding in St Lucia, you would be doing yourself a disfavor not to book with Awesome Caribbean Wedding, Michele and her team. If I could give them 15 stars, I would! I am ready to start planning a reunion wedding next year 😊
Thanks again for everything Michele, you are truly the best!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Morgan and Jorge,
What can I say but a massive thank you! We all really appreciate you taking the time to write this, it means the world to us.

Our Stunning St Lucia Wedding!
We had our wedding on October 7, 2023 at the Cap Maison resort in St. Lucia. Our experience with Michele and Awesome Caribbean Weddings was nothing short of amazing. From beginning to end, Michele took great care of us. She is so organized and on top of everything. We never had to worry about missing a deadline or forgetting anything. She continuously made changes to our wedding day programme without complaining and she was always happy to do whatever we needed. Once we arrived in St. Lucia, she was available at all times. She made sure our day was absolutely perfect. She arranged the flowers, entertainment, cake, decor, videographer, makeup, etc. There is no way we could have planned this wedding without her. All of the vendors she worked with provided great service. She was there the entire wedding day to make sure things went smoothly and to keep us on schedule. She truly went above and beyond. Our wedding (week) was more than we could have ever asked for and our wedding day was perfect and breathtaking. ACW was even able to arrange transport and excursions for us and our guests. Michele even answered my WhatsApp message at 9pm to arrange an excursion for my brother and his girlfriend at the last minute. If you want to do a destination wedding and you're interested in St. Lucia, I highly recommend using ACW. They take the stress of planning away so you can just enjoy your day.
Michele, we can't thank you enough for everything!

Casey Sent on 07/02/2023Unforgettable Wedding Thanks to Michele
As we were trying to decide on where we would like to have our wedding, we knew that we wanted to do something unique but in the Caribbean to serve as a type of "halfway point" for our families who are spread between California and the Netherlands. We stumbled upon Awesome Caribbean Weddings and were immediately sold when we saw the Piton View Venue.
Michele was truly incredible in helping us plan our dream wedding in a place we had never been to before. When she said we could do a catamaran cruise back up the island from the wedding venue, I was thrilled! She is extremely kind and was always very patient during email correspondences as I did not always have the opportunity to respond right away, but Michele always did within the two to three day guaranteed response time frame. In addition, Michele always rolled with the changes we made to the wedding day during planning whether it was table setup or guest counts. I also really liked that Michele would offer her advice/recommendations on certain things like where to have the reception, value for money regarding menus in varying places, decoration, etc. Everything was perfect from the moment we started working with Michele until we sadly had to say goodbye to each other at the end of the wedding. Everybody attending the wedding said it was the best wedding they had ever been to and that everything from start to finish was absolutely perfect. I really appreciated this as these people chose to spend the time and money to come all the way out to Saint Lucia to celebrate my husband and I and Michele made that day extra special for our guests as well. I would absolutely recommend Awesome Caribbean Weddings to anyone who is looking for a unique wedding in the Caribbean!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:

Working with Michele and her team at Awesome Caribbean Weddings was a total breeze.

She's a hard worker and you can feel the care that she puts into her job.

My husband and I decided to have a private wedding in St. Lucia with just the two of us. We fell in love with the backdrop of the piton view venue and knew early on it was where we wanted to exchange our vows. Fenella helped us plan the day of our dreams!! Having never been to St. Lucia and planning from Minnesota, she was so responsive and put us at ease through the whole process. Daniel was an incredible photographer and the eye cast videographer crew captured the moment so beautifully. Our florals were amazing!

Awesome doesn’t even begin to describe my experience!
I can't even express how happy, overwhelmed with joy, and grateful I am after working with Michele and Awesome Caribbean Weddings!!! They were nothing short of AMAZING. All of the vendors that work with Awesome Caribbean Weddings were absolutely perfect - multiple options and extremely amenable to suggestions/recommendations. Michele is the sweetest and most hard working planner there is. Planning a wedding from a couple thousand miles away was a big task, but Michele made it seem like we were only a few miles apart. Her responses were prompt and extremely detailed - she always answered all of my questions and more! She was always thinking ahead to the next thing we needed to work on, so I didn't have to worry about anything. When I say that I had ZERO stress on my wedding day, I mean it and that is 100% due to Michele and her brilliant team. When things got dicey with transportation, Michele was my biggest advocate, demanding I not be transported in a bus. Honestly I can't say enough good things about this company and the owner. If I were to get married again, I know exactly who I would be contacting. Do not question it - just work with them, you won't regret it!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Aw, I miss you guys! You made planning your wedding so much fun and it turned out beautifully, your eye for detail is amazing. Yours is a wedding we are very proud of as a company, we are still talking about it!
I hope you and Joey share nothing but love, happiness and good fortune in your married life, you certainly deserve it.

When I came across the brilliantly named wedding planners, Awesome Caribbean Weddings I had to check them out but I could never have anticipated how truly ‘awesome’ Michele and her team would be.
We did not have long to arrange our daughter’s wedding and we were on a tight budget but at every step of the planning, she supported us to achieve the wedding our daughter and her fiancé wanted.
Nothing was too much trouble; Michele always responded quickly; she was always calm and professional and always knew what we needed, sometimes before we did. Engaging Awesome Caribbean Weddings to help us organize our wedding was like having an intuitive and supportive friend navigate our way through all the arrangements.
We’d also like to say a special thank you to Michele’s hair and make-up duo.

Best Decision!
The best decision I made while looking for a wedding planner in Saint Lucia was finding ACW. The second I got engaged I knew I wanted to get married in the Historical Ruins at Pigeon Island. I can’t thank Michele enough for making my dream wedding ceremony become a reality. 16 months of planning and after numerous emails about likes and dislikes Michele was able to figure out just what I was looking for; simple but elegant. Planning a wedding can be stressful but not once did I feel like I wasn’t in good hands. Michele went above and beyond and her professionalism was just amazing. Her responses were quick and I loved that she always had options for all my questions. I would 10/10 recommended anyone planning a destination wedding or any event in Saint Lucia to go with ACW you will not be disappointed!
I also would love to add that Michele is the sweetest person I have ever met!! having her by my side planning my wedding was like having a best friend planning it. She wanted nothing but the best for us. She genuinely loves what she does and I couldn’t be happier with the result.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:

Lissa Sent on 07/25/2022Best Wedding planner ever
To put it in a few words: Michele and her team are simply the best. Clément and I happily trusted Awesome Caribbean Weddings for the organization of our wedding on June 4th. It's hard for us to describe how grateful we are for everything they've done. Despite the distance, as we live in Martinique, the communication with Michele was always smooth. She paid attention to every detail, every demand we had. We were able to rely entirely on her and - gosh, it was an epic challenge. We were a little less than 100 guests, we had our wedding ceremony in the ruins on Pigeon Island, the cocktail hour on the cliffside, and dinner on the lawns. Yet, everything worked out extremely well: the set up, the timings, the catering, the steel pan band, the violinist, the transport ... We just enjoyed our wedding day without even being aware of any little inconvenience that might have happened.
We're also very thankful for her remarkable team & vendors : special thanks for Hannah the make-up artist, and Flora the hairdresser, who are the sweetest. They understood the assignment perfectly, my bridesmaids and I have never been so gorgeous. Daniel, the photographer and the whole Eyekast videography team were absolutely perfect too. And what to say about Chef Richardson, my guests are still commenting on how great the dinner was.
And that's just for the people we met ; but we know there is a whole staff and a million other stuff that we don't even know about. Michele just makes it happen, she's pure magic.
So, if you're still hesitating about contracting her or not, JUST DO IT. It will be (one of) the best day(s) of your life and also, you'll make a friend.

Above and beyond!!
Awesome Carribean Weddings went above and beyond to make our dream wedding come true! Michele was our amazing wedding planner but really more like a fairy godmother. We had countless emails/texts/calls and she was always so helpful and pleasant. We had 50 guests, so we wanted to set up events other than the wedding for people to socialize and she was more than happy to help. We had only visited St. Lucia once, so we weren’t sure about the best caterers, locations, or even catamaran companies. Everything Michele recommend (and helped plan) turned out better than expected! We had a tight budget, but Michele had tricks on how to save. I had a very specific vision for what the reception would look like and she blew me away with what her team put together. The photographer and videographer Michele recommended were reasonably priced and did an outstanding job. We will cherish those memories forever. My husband and I are so grateful for all the hard work Michele and her team put in to make our wedding week magical.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:

If you're remotely thinking about working with Michele and using Awesome Caribbean Weddings - DO IT! She was the best advocate to have on our side during the beginning of the pandemic. She is so kind, trustworthy, considerate, respectable and just so AMAZING at what she does! She went above and beyond for us to make our wedding dream come true.

She is so very organized and remembered all the details even I (the bride) had forgotten! She made our wedding dreams become a reality from the florals to the venues and the musicians to the transportation. She even planned our pre-wedding and post-wedding excursions!

Awesome wedding!
We can’t thank Fenella and her team enough for making our ceremony so beautiful.
Not knowing Fennel and planning our ceremony remotely made us a little nervous but after we met her the day before our ceremony we knew we were in good hands. She had everything done exactly like we planed and even stopped the rain an hour before our ceremony giving us a picture perfect day. Even the car d so he sent was perfect and the drive couldn’t have been more accommodating.
The beach venue was exactly like we had hoped and the gazebo and ruins where an extra fabulous bonus.
The photographer, Daniel, did a outstanding job. Everyone who sees the photos comments on how beautiful they are, he is truly a master at his craft.
And last but not least is Lulu. It was such a blessing to have her officiate our services, she made everything seemed so personal and gave us the feeling that we were the most important service she had ever officiated, although we know she has done hundreds.
Thank you Fenella, and your team, together you not only gave us a beautiful ceremony but most importantly you gave us a memory that we will cherish the rest of our lives. And thanks to Daniel’s fabulous photos we can share the day with all our family and friends. -

Kayla Sent on 09/01/2021Amazing experience
If you are on the fence with booking through this company, just do it! I 10/10 recommend them. Fenella helped with every single detail, including the reception dinner following the ceremony. Our wedding was originally scheduled for 06/25/2021 in Saint Lucia. The day before the wedding, the weather forecast called for heavy rain and storms. We were able to reschedule for the 26th and Fenella made sure every detail was exactly as we planned for the day before. Fenella was AMAZING throughout the entire process and very patient with the million questions I had. The private beach on Pigeon Island was beautiful and the food at Jacques Waterfront Dining was delicious. We purchased the photography and videography package and it was well worth it. This company is exceptional!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Kayla and Jason,
It was simply a pleasure meeting you guys. I'm very happy I was able to assist you with the plans for your wedding day. I wish you both continued love and happiness.

Sarah Sent on 06/07/2021Exceeding expectations
Planning a destination wedding during a global pandemic; what could possibly go wrong? Everything… which is how the worst thing ever quickly turned into the best thing ever. Having to change our destination, sent us looking for help. This is when I found ACW, and the historical ruins quickly became the venue I just had to have! From our emails, video chats, shipping decor, to meeting in person just days before our wedding, I felt like Michele had known me my entire life with how she understood what I wanted better than even I understood! Michele and her team blew it out of the water when it came to organizing and putting everything together for the most magical day. She found all the right people for every job needed. I could not have dreamt our wedding, let alone our stay, could have been as magical if it weren’t for her professionalism, expertise and knowledge. Everything, and I mean everything was beyond perfect. She brought my vision to life, she placed amazing people into our lives, and she worked her magic with every bump in the road that had been thrown our way. Even with an erupting volcano on a neighboring island, our wedding day was nothing short of perfection. Look no further, because you’ve found your guiding light with ACW. You won’t be disappointed, I promise!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Sarah and John, I am so very happy that we were able to give you the wedding of your dreams. It was such a pleasure getting to know you, your family and friends and I think all the challenges everyone had to go through to be a part of your special day speaks volumes about the two of you. I wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness, Michele xx -

Jared Sent on 01/08/2021Dream Wedding: An ACW Production
Michele, the ACW staff and vendors made our wedding a dream come true from the first planning phone call to the last guest leaving the dance floor. Michele’s calming voice and demeanor during the planning and on the big day really helped us manage the whirlwind of emotions that comes with planning a wedding. Michele listened intently to our wants and needs and gave us suggestions where needed. We originally wanted our wedding on the Amalfi Coast, but the Covid outbreak forced us to pivot our wedding vision. The vision we had in mind for the wedding ceremony involved a backdrop consisting of rolling hills and the Petit and Gros Pitons sloping into the sea. Michele took our vision and made it reality with a venue that possessed exactly what we were looking for with sweeping views that will stay with us and our wedding guests forever.
We began planning the wedding in June of 2019 with a wedding date set for August 2020. As Covid took more and more control away from us with the wedding planning, Michele was there every step of the way offering suggestions and keeping us informed of developments in St. Lucia that would affect wedding outcomes. When our wedding venue was put in jeopardy of not being able to host ceremonies, Michele worked tirelessly contacting whomever to acquire information about the venue's status to host and finding alternate venues just in case…we were so happy we got to keep the original venue. Ultimately, we pushed the wedding date back to Dec. 2020 and Michele made all the necessary arrangements with her vendors with no added stress to us.
ACW’s network of vendors — drivers, make-up, violinist, photographers, cake designer, chefs, caterers, DJs, etc — are consummate professionals that provide exemplary services. We were so amazed at how it all came together under Michele’s leadership. Daniel, the photographer, took beautiful pictures of the ceremony, guests, and reception. We opted for a photoshoot at the waterfalls which was truly magical. Michele and the ACW staff created such a beautiful table for the dinner that was set on a terrace with perfect sunset views over the water and the pitons towering in the back. Our wedding guest could not stop talking about the three-course meal for the reception. The plating of each course showed the attention to detail coming from the kitchen. Each plate was phenomenal! The DJ Romanus kept the party going with a great selection of music from beginning to the end.
We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding…well maybe we could have done without the Covid onslaught. But Michele, the ACW staff, and the associated vendors made our wedding day so special during a year that was really heavy on everyone’s spirit. There is no amount of thanks that can express our gratitude to Michele…but one more won't hurt. Thank you, Michele!
Forever Grateful,

Hi Demia and Jared,
I miss you guys! I miss our emails and our phone chats and our working on multiple scenarios "just in case"!!! It has been fabulous to be able to do any weddings at all during these awful covid times, but to be a part of your wedding has been extra special and it is a wedding, and you are a couple, that I will never forget. I wish you love, peach, health and happiness all your days.

Absolutely Perfect - A dream come true.
We worked with Michele from Awesome Caribbean weddings and she was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond on everything we needed. when the pandemic hit, she helped us transition easily to a postponed wedding date. She was very transparent in next steps and options as well as risks during St. Lucia's strict COVID regulations and laws. It was a very stressful time trying to coordinate our travel changes for my husband, myself and our guests. In every interaction both via email and phone she was so professional, kind and positive. Her suggestions were so creative and well thought through for our specific requests and needs. In the weeks leading up to the wedding Michele and I spoke multiple times a day and she was always so sweet to take my calls.
I had a very specific vision in mind for our wedding style and color theme and Michele listened and provided amazing options and choices on everything. It's a hard pill to swallow when you have to trust a stranger to plan your wedding and trust that their vendors are good quality. The team of vendors AWC provided were so incredibly talented from the hair and makeup (Ann and Hannah) to the DJ (DJ Romanus) to the Catamaran crew! We could not have been more impressed. Everything turned out as a dream come true and I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful wedding! We would highly recommend her for any type of wedding.
Thank you Michele for your hard work and for making our dream wedding come true! I am so happy to now call you my friend!Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Sydney and David,
Thank you so much for your lovely review, we really do appreciate it! COVID certainly made it challenging for us all, but the end result was worth all the stress and tears that I know you went through having to change plans so many times. Your wedding day was beautiful and fun, perfectly suited to such a lovely couple as you two are. We will certainly hook up when we are able to travel to NY again!
Much love,

Misha Sent on 05/01/2020The perfect day, perfectly planned
Choosing ‘Awesome Caribbean Weddings’ for our special day was the best decision we made. We are from the UK and got married in April 2019 on Pigeon Island Private Beach organised by Michele. From the first email, it was clear that Michele could cater for our visions and dreams - our wedding was 2 years in the making, and 187 emails! I had previously met Michele on a visit to the island but all wedding planning was done via email. No request at any time was too big or too small and Michele put us at ease from the very beginning. Myself and my husband are very busy people and Michele was able to execute our dream day beyond our expectations, allowing us to enjoy the process without worry. Michele has amazing hookups on the island meaning a Pinterest photo or a small idea could be transformed into something really special.
A quick mention to Joanna who did the makeup perfectly, everyone looked beautiful and I felt incredible. Our photographer was Daniel (Belle Portwe) who captured stunning shots and our videographer (and drone) was Wyndell and his team. Our wedding video is like a movie and has surpassed anything we have ever seen! I would recommend each of these for anyone else stuck with who to choose from Michele’s extensive list of services. We had a face to face meeting with our photographer/videographer to discuss the day too.
Before the big day Michele organised a rehearsal and ran through the ceremony which relaxed everyone in preparation for the real thing. Our whole wedding was customised from the beach set up, the serving of fresh cocounts, steel drum band, flowers, music selection, DJ, food, drinks, refreshments, cake, a catamaran, hotel rooms and the set up to allow one of our guests to perform during the ceremony. The legal side of the wedding was all managed by Michele too. We even had an extra suitcase load of items for the reception which Michele and her team took away to organise. We didn't have to lift a finger! Our wedding had 80 guests (originally planned for up to 100) with the majority travelling from the UK and America.
Michele accommodated extremely last minute requests (to suddenly add canapes to our package) and she put a contingency plan in place if it were to rain during our ceremony. Reading some of the emails back, Michele really did go above and beyond, giving suggestions when we were overwhelmed and just didn’t know, keeping on top of our rubbish responses when we had only answered part of the question and making sure all deadlines and everything was sorted on time.
Michele, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts. And apologies this review is so late!
And to anyone reading this, look no further, your wedding planner is right here!
All our love

Elaine Sent on 12/24/2019The Full Package for a truly Awesome Wedding
We stumbled upon Awesome Caribbean Weddings when we began planning my wedding in 2017. At the time, I was planning a late 2018 wedding. Well life, and hurricanes, happen, and we ultimately pushed our wedding back to summer 2019. However, despite delays, complications and a larger than average destination wedding, Michele and the team at ACW provided exemplary service from day 1 through midnight on our wedding day almost 2 years later.
Michele's key skills included organization, responsiveness, detailed communication style, solutions-oriented approach, flexibility and creative mind - all of these were critical to me. For me, having my wedding in St. Lucia meant going home. I wanted an event that honored my roots and family in St. Lucia while also catering to ~80 off island guests from 6 countries. Michele worked with me tirelessly to create an event we are proud of and that our guests are still talking about. I was rarely able to speak during normal work hours - I appreciated Michele's willingness to accommodate me and her ability to handle complicated planning via email. Additionally, Michele and Teige's networks among vendors on the island were also quite extensive and allowed us to source amazing decor items, yummy cakes, and unique favors for our guests
Decor: Teige executed our vision to perfection, even though we couldn't really articulate the vision at our first meeting. Her detailed approach and brilliantly creative mind was perfect to help guide us tot he look we were going for. Like Michele, she is extremely organized and professional. She is creative and pragmatic and knows how to make ideas into reality
Flowers and Cake: I LOVED our flowers. I wanted local flora and that's what I got. And our bouquets were stunning
Photos: Work with Daniel. You won't be disappointed
To Michele, Teige and the rest of the team thank you for a memorable and perfect day. Elaine & Clever -

Dina Sent on 07/30/2019Wedding Vow Renewal
To celebrate our 25th Anniversary, we set out to renew our wedding vows in a tropical location, we chose St. Lucia, and started by speaking with our resort. What was offered seemed like a cookie cutter approach, we both wanted something unique that featured the landscape of St. Lucia but not the backdrop of a resort. Once we came across Awesome Caribbean Weddings we knew this is who we wanted to work with.
Being completely honest, we didn't know what to expect. We were making arrangements for our special day by email...something neither of us were too comfortable with. However, Fenella was quick to respond to our many questions, concern and requests, she even made time to connect with us with a phone call. This put us both at ease and helped make our decision to trust in Awesome Caribbean Weddings, and Fenella, that much easier.
We chose to use Latille Falls in Micoud as the beautiful location we wanted for our special day. The gardens and surrounding grounds are well maintained and made for an excellent backdrop for our ceremony and pictures. You can even have a fish pedicure afterwards by dipping your feet in a pond.
Our photographer, Daniel, was very professional and took his time setting up each shot. He even allowed us to incorporate a few props which we wanted to include in a few shots. The photos from our vow renewal ceremony are so nice, we can't wait to share them with our friends and family.
Many businesses tend to over promise and under deliver, that was not the case with Awesome Caribbean Weddings, Fenella and Daniel. They delivered everything as promised and made our day so memorable. Thank you for going the extra mile.

When I saw the wedding photos of an old friend, I fell in love with Awesome Caribbean Weddings work and I knew that we had to have my vow renewal at the Pigeon Island Ruins.
From the first email from Fenella, I know I was in the right hands and that everything would be worry free and seamless. Fenella was always very prompt with her email responses and extremely thorough with everything. When I thought I was stressing her out, she never flinched, just always happy to help.
When I met Fenella the Monday I arrived on the island, she greeted me with a warm smile and huge hug. My nerves were calmed instantly. She was able to help me envision my day and was very accommodating with my last minute requests.
The day turned out to be everything I envisioned and more. The decor was the most beautiful thing ever, the staff amazing, and my photographer Brent....OMG, Brent, you tired me out!!!!! Words cannot express how happy and satisfied I am with my photos.
Thank you so much Fenella and Brent for making out 5 year vow renewal everything I expected and more.

Storybook Wedding
Michele helped create the most romantic and personal wedding for us at Villa Susanna in June 2019. As a bride I was nervous attempting to plan a wedding in a country and a venue that I had never been too, especially since I had a very particular vision of what I wanted (and didn't want). From day one Michele was super easy to talk and eased my fears. She listened to all my crazy visions and helped guide me when I didn't have something exactly figured out. Everything from the cake, to the table settings, the flower decor and the personalized drinks turned out perfectly. My husband (yay) and I could not have asked for a better experience. We had initially planned on getting married at a farm in upstate New York but we are so happy we took a chance and went with Michele and her incredible team. The natural beauty of Villa Susanna and the creative eye of Michele and her team made it an absolute story book wedding backdrop and an unforgettable day.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Hi Josefine,
I am so happy to read this, what a lovely review! I am also extremely happy to hear just how much you loved your wedding day :) I had a lot of fun working with you to plan it, your had some absolutely beautiful ideas and for me it was fantastic to be able to make it all a reality for you. I wish you, your husband and your adorable daughter all the very best for your future together as a family.

Forever grateful for Awesome Caribbean Weddings!
Words can’t even describe how grateful we are for Michele and the Awesome Caribbean Weddings team. From the very first correspondence with Michele we knew we were in great hands. Everything was so organized and laid out in a way that made the whole planning process very fun and relaxed. Michele was so responsive in her emails and always had great suggestions without ever loosing our own vision for our day.
As for our big day, Michele made sure every detail was perfect and our day was more than we could have ever imagined. The whole day Chris and I just kept turning to each other and saying how amazing everything was and how great of a job Michele and the team had done. The whole day was worry free and more than we could have hope for.
Everything went seamlessly. Awesome Caribbean Wedding’s whole team was phenomenal. From the hair and makeup artists, our photographer Daniel, the Officiant, the catering company….everyone did a phenomenal job. All of our family and friends also commented how great of a time they had and how flawless the day was for them as well. At the end of the night Michele approached us to let us know that our private car had arrived and that she had already packed all of our personal décor, belongings from the day, marriage certificate, bouquet ect. She had literally thought of every little detail and made our day so perfect from the beginning to end.
We would recommended Awesome Caribbean Wedding again and again to any couple planning a destination wedding. Michele and her team will forever be in our memories of one of the greatest days of our lives.
Thank you Michele and Awesome Caribbean Wedding’s!! We are forever grateful to you all.

So amazing we could do it all over again!
We live in the UK, but had to coordinate a huge number of people. So whilst we were dealing with everything in the UK, Michele at AC took charge of everything in St Lucia. I am very particular and we have high standards, but live within our means. We contacted 3 wedding planners in St Lucia and from the speed and quality of their response - AC was a clear winner.
Our wedding in December 2018, was exactly how we envisaged after two years of planning, it was amazing to finally see everything come together. We married is a beautiful church with the loveliest priest you could ever ask for. We had our reception at a hotel nearby who served up the best food they had on the island (which was quoted from one of our fussiest guests).
Michele is friendly, reliable, professional, highly organised and honest. The day was seamless because Michele and her team paid attention to detail and listened to us yet was not afraid to tell us if something could not work. We had plenty of laughs along the way and made the whole experience a truly memorable one.
I know some people would say that it is what you are paying them for, but it honestly felt like she often went above and beyond the norm. She made us feel as though we were the most important people.
AC made the day stress free and on the actual day of the wedding she was everywhere! We honestly do not know how she did it. We had 100 people flying from the UK, US, Canada and other parts of the Caribbean and everyone commented on how the day just “flowed” so well.
Thank you sooooooooo much Michele you were brilliant! Also a big shout to Anne (hairstylist - felt like family), Hannah (amazing make up artist), Liz (lovely lady and lovely nail art), Brent (bexphotopro.com) who worked magic on our photos and EyeKast (the best videographers ever :) in our opinion of course) and Martin our DJ who had our guests and the entire venue partying away.
Awesome Caribbean truly lives up to their namesake and offer brilliant packages for all budgets - so anyone looking to get married in St Lucia we recommend AC every time.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:
Aw, you guys rock! Thank you so much for the lovely feedback Claire and Ray, we all loved being a part of your special day. I miss chatting with you :( but I know we will meet again!

Intimate church wedding
Awesome Caribbean Weddings were absolutely fabulous in organising and tailoring our perfect wedding day in beautiful St. Lucia (December 2018). A huge thanks to Michelle who made the planning of our special day so seamless and worry free. While they offer a range of options and packages for big or small weddings in various locations, the local knowledge and experience was invaluable when helping us to match our needs. We travelled from Ireland and wanted a very small and intimate church wedding during our stay on the island. Awesome Caribbean Weddings were very professional and efficient in arranging this, including the legal aspects, booking the church, priest, photographer and car. Services such as hair and make-up are also available. We would highly recommend getting in touch with Awesome Caribbean Weddings if you are planning your special day in St. Lucia.Awesome Caribbean Weddings's reply:

Linda Sent on 06/27/2018There are no words to describe how delighted we are to have chosen Awesome Caribbean for our wedding planning! We had the most spectacular and amazing wedding we could have ever imagined. Michele and all her vendors totally exceeded our expectations! We got married on June 2nd at Villa Susanna in Marigot Bay. Michele helped us pick the place and it was truly the most beautiful villa on the whole island. We didn’t want to get married in a hotel/resort as we preferred a more secluded and private ceremony, so Michele recommended renting out a villa and it was such a wonderful idea! Our family and friends stayed with us at the villa and we had the most amazing ceremony and reception overlooking the Caribbean sea.
My husband and I are both very busy professionals. It was actually one of the reasons why we decided to find a wedding planner. Michele was great at communicating with us. She kept us on schedule! She gave us concrete tasks to do and made sure we made our choices on time. She also drew our attention to details we might have completely over looked. She sent us options to choose from (extremely helpful!!!) and also gave us room to bring our own touch. It was such a pleasure receiving her emails, we felt like we knew her before we even met her. On the wedding day, she spent 12 hours working non-stop making sure every little detail is thought through. Her vendors including the make-up and hair artists, Daniel (photographer) and the videographer, the chefs and waiters, the guitarist, and the most amazing Coconut man and steel pan band were all extremely professional and all did an awesome job! The band kept all our guests dancing nonstop!
We highly recommend Awesome Caribbean, there is not one single thing that we would have wanted to be different! Just trust their professionalism and enjoy the planning process, it doesn’t have to be tedious and painful, Awesome Caribbean will make it all simply AWESOME !

Tessa Sent on 04/29/2018There truly are no words to describe the gratitude my husband and I have for Michele and the crew at Awesome Caribbean Weddings! You made all our dreams come true (and then some!) and went above and beyond any expectations we had.
We recently got married at La Haut (wedding venue with stunning views of the Pitons) on 4-18-18, followed by a reception at Orlando's (awesome food), and the day was absolutely magical! I never felt a moment of stress that day because of Michele. She thought of every detail and made sure everything ran smoothly. It was utter perfection! My guests were awestruck by the beauty of the location and how exceptional every detail was.
We started working with her over a year before the wedding. It was so easy to communicate remotely with her that we were never nervous about the outcome. However, we also underestimated truly how amazing it would be! Her execution and delivery was superb. She was so professional, organized, thoughtful, and patient, even as our numbers changed over time.
Eden (videographer) and Dani (photographer) deserve a huge shout out too! Everyone has cried and gushed about how outstanding the video and photos are. Some said it looked heavenly. I oscillate between smiling and crying happy tears every time I look at it all again. I had the awesome privilege of marrying the most amazing man, and thanks to them, I get to relive it over-and-over again. We couldn't be happier with the products they produced!
Orlando did a fabulous job with dinner and working around my allergies and those of guests. Everyone raved about the food and we even found some room for a little dancing!
St. Lucia is so special and idyllic for a wedding. Awesome Caribbean Weddings provides magnificent service!

Shamara Sent on 12/20/2016I cant put into words how amazing they are. They helped to make my wedding Day the day best day of my life. I worked with Fenella who really did all the work and changed anything that I asked with ease. My photographer was coming from the States and his flight was delayed due to a hurricane so he made it after the ceremony. Fenella was able to get a last minute local photographer to be at the ceremony to take amazing pictures. I can say thank you enough. I would recommend them to anyone who is thinking of St. Luca as a wedding destination.
