Bobbie was extremely helpful as we prepared for our destination wedding in Miami. She was very personable throughout our entire wedding journey which allowed us to have a great working relationship. She suggested our dream team of vendors who could supply us with quality, kindness, and listening ears as we explained the vision for our wedding day. As a couple who was traveling for our wedding day this was extremely important as we did not have personal contacts in the area. We trusted Bobbie’s recommendations and every vendor she suggested was remarkable! Moreover, Bobbie checked in with us monthly and in between as needed to keep us on track for the wedding day, to review our setup for the ceremony and reception, and so much more. In addition to her relationship with others her previous experience with graphic design was extremely helpful as she created our wedding invitation which was in the format of a magazine! The wedding day was truly memorable and magical due to Bobbie’s expertise and execution. We were grateful to have the experience to work with her and definitely recommend her to other couples! -

Fortuna Events Miami did not disappoint! Bobbie and her team are THE BEST! My husband & I were so scared when we started to plan our wedding given that it will be a destination wedding. From living 6 hours away from Miami to having both of our entire families living in Massachusetts, we were skeptical about everything. Bobbie made the process so easy and flawless. We’re so grateful that we found Bobbie because not only is she professional, she is also very personal. From handling all of our questions, to reminding us on vendor payments and the all in between, she had it covered. She gave us so many ideas and also incorporated our own and made our dreams a reality. Our big day would not have been possible if it wasn’t for Bobbie. Fortuna Events thank you for making our dream wedding a reality! Best wedding planner EVER!Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Oh my God, I so miss you guys. You were amazing and most of all I absolute love the way you LOVE each other. I wish you all the best for your new endeavors together. I am here for you whenever you need me. Thank you for letting us be part of your amazing wedding. Love you guys! -

Bobbie was so wonderful!!
Planning a wedding is stressful enough but gosh Bobbie was so kind, helpful and extremely patient with us throughout the whole process. From text messages to zoom calls Bobbie was there for Jaz and I.
On the day of her team was AMAZING! We stayed on timeline the whole day. As a bride you forget to eat and they made sure to feed me and change out of my heels into my flats, literal angels. Thank you Bobbie, Xiomara & Vicky!
We are so grateful to have had the universe align us. DO NOT HESITATE to book her and her team to plan your dream event!!Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Thank you Jaylin/Jaz it was a pleasure working with both of you. Your vintage wedding turned out amazing. The weather was perfedt despite the wind, it was such a beautiful day for such a beautiful couple. I wish you both the very best in your new journey together. Many blessings. -

WOW I didn’t realize how much I needed Bobbie until I hired her, one of the best decisions I made for our wedding!! I hired her for the month of, and thank goodness I did because there were so many small details to figure and some I hadn’t even thought of until Bobbie pointed them out. She is very professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about what she does. We got married at Secret Gardens Miami, and it was especially valuable to have a planner who knows all the ins and outs of that venue since she does weddings there all the time. Thank goodness we went with someone who knew our venue so well, she knew just how to plan everything out from the timeline to the placement of, well everything! It was insanely helpful to create a vision-board and timeline with her. She also had many great recommendations for props and where to buy or rent them. Bobbie made herself very available especially the month of and was always just a text or call away. Another that I liked about Bobbie is that she would give it to me straight and tell me her honest opinion when I needed it, rather than just sitting back and just following what I said. The day of our wedding was pretty hectic as we had a lot of rain come through. Bobbie kept it all together and communicated well with all vendors to make sure everything went smoothly, and let me just say she did a fantastic job. I don’t know what we would have done without her, so many things could have gone wrong but didn’t. Thank you Bobbie and team for making our day magical!!Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Renee, thank you so much, you guys were wonderful to work with. I truly appreciate your kind words. Like I always tell my couples there are things that always happen at a wedding, but we do what we have to do to make it the best day no matter what happens rain, etc. I'm so glad you guys were happy that's truly what I strive for is to make all of my couples happy. Many blessings to you guys on a beautiful future together. -

Wedding planners save you time and effort
Bobby did a great job With the vision board she creates and helping with the process. She made my day less stressful. Even with the rain and last minute change, it was all perfect. I feel that for certain things, I had to be behind her and reminding her or things due to the workload she takes on. But Over all I was happy. Bobby definitely helped us out a lot and hustles.Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Thank you Jenilice for your great review. It was a pleasure working with you. Yes, our workload at this time of year is extremely heavy. As you stated, we hustled to make your day special and seamless as possible. I take great pride in the work I do and I am very happy that you considered your special day to be perfect. Many blessings! -

Best of the best
This was the absolute best service I could have asked for during a pandemic. She made the event beautiful and everything happened effortlessly. I felt as though she was my fairy godmother. Was super attentive and detailed about all the time lines and everyone roles. Made the transition (we had to switch our wedding date due to the pandemic) effortlessly. 11/10 would recommended to any bride who truly wants a supportive wedding planner that only wants the best for the bride and truly enjoys her work! -

What can I say?
I honestly didn’t know where to start. We hired Bobbie for the month of wedding, and she was so kind to guide me and advise me with her professional option A MONTH BEFORE! Who does that?! Bobbies was fabulous, experienced, and very affordable. She did a great job, and the few items that were different than planned she made sure to fix immediately. I can't recommend her enough! -

Fenomenal fairy tale wedding
Ever since forever I always dreamed of the perfect wedding planner for my wedding. When I started planning my wedding I thought I didn’t need a wedding planner and all of a sudden I came across Bobbie. We spoke literally about an hour or so and the connection was just there. I just knew I had found my wedding planner just by talking to her. I had a very detailed beauty and the beast sparkled with a little bit of Cinderella wedding. Bobbie heard every single detail that I had we went over everything and on our special day everything was just magical. Having Xiomara and her assistant helping us out throughout the night was the most amazing thing ever. I didn’t even have to hold my tail because they were there helping me. Everything from start to end was just amazing!! I will recommend Bobbie and her girls with my eyes closed anytime. Thank you ladies for making my dream wedding come true. -

You DEFINITELY need Bobbie on your wedding team
Our dream wedding came true and it wouldn’t have been possible without Bobbie! If you need a planner who will make sure you everything goes off without a hitch, then Bobbie is your person. From start to finish, she was organized with her planning & notes, scheduled Zoom meetings to go over every detail, and toured our venue with us and our DJ (Dave Trakz Entertainment) to ensure that all final details and preparation would be set for the wedding. Not only did she drive over 4 hours to be present for the venue walkthrough, wedding rehearsal, and wedding day, but she was also participated in Zoom meetings with our venue and catering contact. She went over everything I needed to have prepared and how it should be organized, such as having our decor and items listed in marked storage bins. As someone who usually stresses over everything, I can say with certainty that my wedding day was one of the most stress-free days of my life thanks to Bobbie. For the rehearsal, Bobbie walked us through the order of events and ceremony in a timely fashion at our venue. On the day of our wedding, she and her assistant arrived early to the venue to check in with me as I was getting ready in the on-site cottage. They collected the bins and started transforming venue as soon as they were able to. Additionally, Bobbie had our welcome sign, seating chart, & menus designed and printed. While we had an early evening ceremony, it began to rain before Bobbie and our venue began to set up the outdoor seating. Bobbie called me, explained what happened and how she would be able to transform the ball room (where the reception would later take place) into a ceremony area. She sent me photos of the ball room; it was absolutely gorgeous and even more elegant than we had originally planned. Following a beautiful ceremony and cocktail hour, we were preparing for the entrance into the reception when it became apparent that the shop which had done my wedding dress alterations only completed half of the bustle. With her emergency box close by and safety pins in hand, she and our amazing photographer (Joy Grace Photography) went out of their way to transform my long train into a fully complete bustle. No one could tell anything was wrong with my dress. So when I tell you Bobbie is a miracle worker, that’s the God’s honest truth. I would recommend Bobbie and her amazing team at Fortuna Events to anyone who wants to feel taken care of, work with someone who has a passion in all that they do, and wants to help make their dream wedding come true!Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Wow, thank you Taylor for such an amazing review. We all loved doing your wedding it was truly magical. You guys were an amazing couple to work with. We wish you both nothing but the very best in your beautiful future together. Thank you again for your review we truly appreciate it. Blessings! -

I got married in the middle of a Pandemic with a very tight budget and Fortuna Wedding’s not only made my dream come true but it was better than I could have even dreamt it. Bobbie has such a special heart she went above and beyond for me to make sure my day was absolutely perfect. Organized but like OCD with a sparkle ✨ I was calm and enjoyed every minute because she definitely took care of me. You will not regret choosing Fortuna weddings and Bobbie is like the fairy godmother we all wish to have on that day. ❤️ -

Emeline C. Sent on 11/10/2020Amazing, thank you for everything, the best. Book now!
I will start with these wise words: EVERYONE NEEDS BOBBIE!
Not just a Bobbie, but THE one and only Barbara Corzo!
I am a very organized person and I had not planned to hire a wedding planner, let me tell you, you can be as organized and OCD as you want, trust me when I tell you you NEED BOBBIE.
Being a 2020 Bride sucked terribly! And I am so thankful I had Bobbie holding my hand through the COVID 19 restrictions nightmares.
She was there for me 24/7, always had my back and was always able to calm me down during the ups and downs of this planning process.
She was always so positive, always fought for us and went above and beyond to make sure everything turned out ok and that we had our dream wedding.
Despite all the restrictions and me accepting that things wouldn't be what I had initially imagined, thanks to Bobbie and all our wonderful vendors our special day turned out event better than what I had prayed for.
Bobbie was a TRUE BLESSING, and I have no idea what would have happened if we didn't have her.
After everything we went through to plan our wedding, we were hit with a heavy tropical storm on our day. Half of the festivities were planned outside and Bobbie did such an amazing job at redesigning the entire layout of the set ups in few hours.
With Covid I kept loosing guests, adding guests last minute (even the night before). Bobbie was wonderful at bouncing back and forth and accommodating everyone and everything.
She was like my wedding mom, so compassionate, genuine, responsive, loving with so much positive energy.
Bobbie also booked our honeymoon and got us the most AMAZING deals. She is a 2 in 1: She is a wedding planner and a travel agent.
We had accepted we weren't going to have the honeymoon we wanted. Thanks to Bobbie we are having something even better than what we originally wanted and for a lot cheaper!
I cannot thank you enough for everything you did and for making our day so beautiful, filled with so much joy, laughter, love and fun & memorable times.
Nothing ruined our day, not covid, not the rain, not the delays, not the mean church lady that kept yelling at you and almost tackled me! and all of that because YOU TRULY ARE THE BEST.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! From the bottom of our hearts, we couldn't have asked for more.
Thank you for making our day everything we ever wanted.
Beautiful humans, please trust me, Book HER NOW! -

My big day
First, I will like to take the time out to thank Bobbie our wedding planner for an amazing outcome. The stress that comes with planning a wedding is a lot. For this to be my first wedding, I did not want to spend more money on a wedding planner. I thought my bridesmaid and I had it. No, that did not work. I was very Skeptical about having someone to put all my ideals together. I came across Bobbie and spoke with her briefly on the phone regarding her package deals and she made me feel so comfortable. After speaking with fiancé he told me to give a shot. I must say that was the best advice EVER. I hired Bobbie as my planner. Bobbie wasn’t just a planner. She has amazing ideals and brought it to life. At this point I was stress free of everything. In my head I had my whole ideal wedding planned out and wanted that way I imagine. I was able to call Bobbie about anything. Bobbie took care of all the phone calls to the vendors. When I say I did not have to worry about anything, no worries.To make a long story short when I arrived to my venue I was Anxious to see how everything came out. The moment I walk through the doors my eyes started to tear up. It was so beautiful 🤩. My ideal wedding in my head came to life ten times better then what I expected. I highly recommend Bobbie because of what she has to offer beyond planner. Not only that! She has amazing assistance that work a long side of her. Bobbie will be hosting any other events I may have. -

Yvonne L. Sent on 08/27/2020Bobbie was a doll
Let me start by saying that my husband and I were blessed to have won an all inclusive micro-wedding where Bobbie with Fortuna Events was my planner.
She was an absolute doll from the very beginning to the very end. Always willing to answer my questions and listen to my ideas.
Originally both my ceremony and reception was set to be outside. Thankfully Bobbie arrived the day before to receive all of the furniture and called to asked me what I thought of moving the reception inside to the air-conditioned farmhouse because she was worried about me and my guests in the heat. Miami heat in the middle of August is no joke and her simple suggestion made my wedding 100% better than it would have been! She set up the barn house beautifully and added all the little touches I had brought along that I had asked her to use.
She was also the main contact with all of the vendors to make sure everything and everyone arrived on time and was as it should be.
She was also there to save me from walking down the aisle without my bouquet! In all of the hype I literally left the bridal suite without my flowers and was about 1 minute from walking down the aisle without them. She immediately told the DJ to hold off an extra minute on my song while my son hauled butt to go get them for me.
I hope to work with her in the near future for any other events I may have!Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Thank you very much Yvonne. It was a pleasure doing your wedding and working with both of you. I truly appreciate your review. I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves and this is a perfect example of a beautiful micro-wedding. All of the vendors truly enjoyed it. Many blessings in your matrimony!

Working with Bobbie and her team was such a pleasure. I am a fellow vendor and they made everything easy and seamless. Their communication and follow thru were a 10 of 10 throughout the entire process. It was clear that they are 100% invested in their clients experience. I work with a lot of event planners and Fortuna Events Miami definitely has been the best. I hope to work with them again in the future.Fortuna Events Miami & Orlando's reply:
Wow thank you so much for an amazing review. I truly appreciate it, and honestly I feel the same way about you and your team. It’s a great experience when you team up with vendors that care about their clients as we do. I can’t wait to start working again and hopefully working with you and your team as well. Thank you.
