Who does the detailed Event Planner Bride call for their dream wedding? ISLAND BLISS WEDDINGS!!!! To those of you who actually read these reviews, let mine guide you into helping you to choose your wedding planner. ;-) As an Event Planner & owner of 2 additional businesses, there are a few things that are extremely important to me: Customer service, the DETAILS, communication & professionalism. Janelle possesses all of those things & more! From the moment we began planning our wedding, until the day of, we must've exchanged over 1,000 emails, easily! While Janelle is VERY busy (which is a good sign), the one thing that stood out to me the most was...I ALWAYS FELT AS IF I WERE HER ONLY BRIDE. I felt like I was made a priority & she responded to EVERY question, text & phone call. I had a vision of how I wanted my wedding to look, all the way down to the agate stone place cards on the table. On our wedding day, I did not leave the room until it was time for me to walk "down the aisle". Janelle had placed every floral arrangement, napkin, sign, candle, etc exactly where I envisioned it! & let me tell you, as an Event Planner, it is sooooo hard to let go of the control & allow someone to execute your vision. Lol Needless to say, we couldn't have been more happy with Janelle's services. She assisted with transportation for our guests, handled custom items that I had shipped to the islands, etc. If you're looking for a detailed, professional, attentive, responsive, creative Wedding Planner in the Virgin Islands, Island Bliss Weddings is the one! Happy planning!

Stress-free & budget-friendly!!
My fiance and I are currently working with Janelle to plan our December 2019 wedding on St. John. She has been very responsive, attentive and friendly to work with throughout the planning process so far. She is happy to offer up suggestions but also listens to what we want and does not push any particular vendors on us - rather just helps us navigate the process of finding exactly what we are looking for to make our wedding day perfect. She provides thorough information for everything you need to know about planning a destination wedding, not to mention her inventory of wedding arches, chairs, decor, etc. is awesome - which makes planning the wedding decor so much simpler!

St. Thomas Dream Wedding via Cruise - Villa Botanica
We are 1000% in love with everything about our big day, it was our dream wedding and we couldn’t appreciate the IB team more for making it happen.
Janelle and Stuart were such a pleasure to work with. Their experience, knowledge, creativity, and Island connections helped ease our stress from planning a seemingly complex destination cruise wedding of 100 guests. They were very accommodating with our vision, timelines, and all our requests. Our favorite part of working with them was bringing our theme and vision to life - we constantly bounced ideas off of each other and ultimately landed on an incredible bold and modern theme that worked so well in a tropical garden setting (Villa Botanica).
We and our 100 guests came to St Thomas by way of Royal Caribbean Cruise, and Janelle and the Island Bliss Team absolutely nailed the coordination of a jam-packed big day! From pick-up at the port to getting ready to the ceremony to the reception and all the way to drop-off at the port, we and our guests had an incredible experience and were well taken care of by the Island Bliss team (and vendors). Everything, including the unique venue, the arch, reception tables, the FOOD, the cocktail hour with violinist, and most importantly the team.
Aaron and Alexa made sure we as the bride and groom were comfortable, fed, happy and at ease. They constantly checked in on us regarding water, our attire, food, timeline adjustments, and everything else that comes up on wedding day! Kelli and Prestwich did the same for us, among other video/photography things. We had an unfortunate experience in which one of my bridesmaids suffered from heat exhaustion at the tail end of our ceremony - and Alexa, Aaron and the team jumped on it to tend to her while still somehow juggling everything else going in during cocktail hour and picture-taking. We appreciated that the ceremony started on time as planned, and when we experienced any delays - Alexa was on her feet and very flexible to make necessary adjustments and ultimately caught up to schedule. She was on point with communicating with us and DJ Dell as well.
The black geometric arch setup was beyond our expectation - big, bold, simple yet elegant - especially with the tropical greenery in the background. It popped so beautifully! It was perfect behind the sweetheart table as well and made for even more beautiful photo opportunities.
The table decor and welcome table setups were just stunning. The black and gold really popped in this setting. As I kept telling our guests who complimented them, “we and our wedding coordinator really put our ideas and thoughts together to come up with this vision and we are over the moon and couldn’t be more happy with the way they turned out!” So thank you and the team for not only the creativity but the execution.
Our photographer was Kelli Peevey and she absolutely rocked it. Her day-of coordination, efficiency, and knowledge of the grounds helped us capture so many picture-perfect moments. She sent us sneak peeks right away and we were awe-inspired by them. Her work and edits are second to none, and the pictures take us back to all the beauty of our special day.
Our videographer was Prestwich Films who teamed up with Olivia Whitaker and Haleigh Barber. They were such an outstanding team - extremely helpful on the day-of and having 2 shooters made for such incredible videos. They really captured the energy, vibe and love from our big day in our teaser and full video and we couldn’t be more in love with them. We watch them almost daily.
DJ Dell as well as Chris Robberts really set the scene with the music and announcing for ceremony, reception and cocktail hour. Working with DJ Dell from planning to day-of was super smooth and we enjoyed getting to know him throughout the process. He really took the time to get to know us, our background and our music selection - and it showed in the way he got us and the crowd involved throughout the day. He played all the jams we love and he got us singing and dancing all day long. We also appreciate his flexibility with changing timelines and how the ceremony and grand entrance music was seamless. Since we were taking pictures most of cocktail hour, we weren’t able to hear the majority of the violinist but thanks to Alexa’s coordinating, she made arrangements for bride + groom to make it to the last 2 songs (which were our song requests). She had us stand at the stairs right above the dance floor while Chris played to us. We loved this - it was a beautiful time for both of us to enjoy a moment together while our guests were able to watch us in pure bliss and made for great photo/video capture.
The venue and food were also huge stick-outs for our wedding. Stepping foot through the entrance door to Villa Botanica, we were taken to a lush, natural oasis set apart from the sights and sounds we and our guests have experienced during the rest of our cruise and trip. We and our guests were overwhelmed with all the picturesque moments and sceneries the Villa has to offer. The food was AMAZING and also like no other meal we experienced during our cruise/trip. The local fare was everything and it was the highlight of many of our guests compliments as well. Please give compliments to the chefs who were also working hard that day, to deliver the food on time and with top quality!
We ADORED the cake - Island Sweet stuff absolutely nailed our look, and the cake along with the coconut key lime cupcakes were the tastiest and most delicious wedding desserts we ever had! Even better that they were all local tropical flavors so the desserts certainly added to the authentic Caribbean experience for us. I have to mention, we were so happy to be fed during our wedding day. Many of our guests were impressed with us being able to eat because apparently it’s common for bride and groom to eat very little if at all on their big day - we owe much of this to Alexa, Aaron and the VB catering staff who took care of everything and left us very little to worry about.
Such a special day and thank you to Janelle, Stuart and the IB team for making every aspect of it memorable!

Amazing Wedding!
Janelle and Stuart were great to communicate with. It was the best experience ever! We didn't have to worry about any type of details. Everything was taking care of and the on site coordinators were excellent. I loved that it was a package deal. We didn't have to worry about booking a venue or a photographer or the DJ. The DJ was excellent, we didn't have to do a playlist he just created on his own and every single song that he selected was the best. The photographer created beautiful pictures of us and our family. The day was perfect!

Best Wedding Day!
I worked with Island Bliss Weddings for my destination wedding in St. Thomas this past May. Janelle and her team allowed me and my new husband to have the absolute best wedding day imaginable. Janelle and Stuart are extremely responsive to emails and offered so much help with making decisions. Island Bliss coordinates almost all of the vendors such as photographer, food, cake, flowers, videographer, transportation, officiant, venue and handles all of the decor. All I had to do was decide what I wanted, which was much easier with how much information Island Bliss provides. Detailed instructions were also provided to complete the marriage license, which was extremely helpful. All of the vendors that Island Bliss uses/recommends are also incredible. My wedding day exceeded my expectations. Everything was absolutely beautiful. All of our guests loved the wedding, and I am so happy that I chose to get married in St. Thomas and work with Island Bliss Weddings!

IBW Planned our DREAM Wedding!
A few months into planning a local wedding in Washington, DC, my now-husband and I found ourselves entirely overwhelmed by the idea of a large wedding, not to mention the ever-growing list of (often opaque) costs. In a desperate search for a simpler, more affordable, and more "us" option, we came across Janelle and Island Bliss Weddings. And we are so grateful we did. The moment we decided to cancel our DC wedding plans and move forward with a wedding in St. Thomas with Island Bliss, it was like a huge burden was lifted off our shoulders. We had the best partners in Janelle and her husband, Stuart - the two of them were responsive, honest, and full of great ideas. We planned our wedding in less than FIVE MONTHS. I think the bulk of the planning happened about 10 weeks out, and Janelle was very patient with us as we figured out what we wanted (I am not the kind of bride who pre-planned her wedding...). We had 40 people attend, which was our dream micro-wedding. Janelle and Stuart answered every single question we had and sent us any information we inquired about, including things outside the wedding day itself (i.e., welcome party recs, post-wedding activity ideas). Additionally, we greatly appreciated the flexibility that Island Bliss offered throughout the planning process - we never felt pressured to purchase anything extra but when we wanted to add on a service that was outside of our package (say, a videographer a mere one week before the wedding) Janelle and Stuart took care of it right away. They were also always very upfront about costs. I am not exaggerating when I say that literally every part of our wedding day was not only perfect, but more magical than we ever could have imagined. Every single wedding vendor Janelle works with is of the utmost quality. And even the vendors that were recommended to us by Janelle but not booked through our wedding package (specifically, bridal hair and makeup) were exceptional. Our wedding venue, Villa Botanica, was an absolutely breathtaking paradise with the kindest, most hospitable owners any guest could dream of. Our guests are still talking about the food at our wedding and we were blown away by the consistently great service the entire evening. Our photographer, Brooke Heikkila, and our videographer, Tropic Media, were both booked through Island Bliss and each were skilled pros - our photos and videos turned out stunning. DJ Dell was awesome and we had a lively dance floor and great photobooth the entire evening. And the Island Bliss team itself was incredible. Our day-of coordinator, Alexa, took care of every single detail and even brought us food and drinks from cocktail hour as my husband and I were taking our photos! She was extremely professional and kept the timeline moving while also being a complete joy to have around. Aaron, our officiate, did an amazing job officiating our wedding - he didn't have any notes and officiated our wedding as if he had known us for a long time (and not like we had just met that morning!). Aaron seamlessly led everyone through our interfaith (Christian/Jewish) ceremony, which was not an easy task as we had some moving pieces. There's so much more we can say about our day and all its details but we will end with this: if you want a beautiful wedding and a dependable team, go with Island Bliss Weddings. We couldn't be more grateful for the way Island Bliss Weddings turned our wedding planning journey into a positive experience, and for the completely magical day we had! We are forever thankful. [Credit for the attached photos goes to the very talented Brooke Heikkila!]

Amazing!!!
I have never been married I know nothing about weddings I knew nothing about the island so I was very nervous.. I asked Janelle for her opinion on things I didn’t know she gave it to me and I took it .. I had to downsize my original package because a lot of people could not make it she did it with no problem.. Wedding day was amazing her team was very patient no rushing us or anything they took their time I was very pleased.

The best day of our lives
Dear janelle,
Michael and I just landed last night so I finally Have some time to reach out to you. I wanted to thank you for helping us plan our dream wedding. I know I wasn’t easy at times and my ocd of planning being over here wasn’t the best. I want you to know that your team is amazing. If we didn’t have Alexa I think we would have been lost. She deserves a super raise! She made sure we were fed, taken care of, and was beyond amazing to my one year old niece .. ( she pretty much walked her down the aisle and helped her throw petals.) Alexa is an exceptional add on to your team. I didn’t want that to go unnoticed. Also, Aaron was phenomenal. He went above and beyond for our ceremony. He’s a great person. Thank you for all of your hard work. Everything was perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing. I also wish I could replay the day a million times again. Thank you.. thank you.. thank you!

Island Bliss Weddings
Highly recommend this wedding vendor. If you are looking for someone that cares about your experience and has extreme talent, Island Bliss Weddings won't disappoint you. There are several packages to pick from and even the option to build your own, which was what I did. We got married in St. Thomas and Janelle coordinated the entire venue. My wedding was more stunning than I could ever have imagined.

Great Planner
Janelle is likely the most experienced wedding planner in the USVI. Shes been planning weddings I believe since 2005, and her experience is a major asset when doing a destination wedding. She is very prompt with her email communications, and has numerous vendor options ready to go. She did all the heavy lifting as far as flowers and decorations, and clearly has a talented eye for design. There were some minor miscommunications the day of that weren't necessarily her fault, but she took great strides to rectify the situation and ensure that our day was perfect.

Best Coordinator I Could Have Asked For
Thanks to Island Bliss Weddings and Janelle, I had the wedding of my dreams. It was the most perfect day and they really cared about all the details that were important to me. The whole process working with IBWs/Janelle was very organized and that made me feel comfortable. She also made me feel comfortable telling her what I want even if it was something that could be seen as “high-maintenance”. She wanted to know so it could be exactly how I imagined it. Everything was so wonderful I am so grateful for Janelle.

Amazing experience!
WOW! I don't have enough positive things to say about Janelle and her team at Island Bliss Weddings. They exceeded ALL off my expectations and really, truly made our wedding an experience we will never forget. I was really worried about being 2,000 miles away and not knowing how everything was going to turn out but it was soooo much better than I could have imagined. Janelle was great with giving me different ideas/opinions on things. She was great about giving me different options so I stayed within budget. Her and her team are so incredibly knowledgeable.. YOU ARE IN GREAT HANDS WITH ISLAND BLISS WEDDINGS!! Do not hesitate when booking them for your special day. You will not regret it! :)

Perfect Island Wedding
Working with Island Bliss Weddings when planning my destination wedding was perfect! It’s so difficult to make decisions when you can’t be there in person to look at/try things out and they were so amazing at giving thoughtful suggestions tailored to what I was looking for and not just a generic set of vendors. They answered my (what felt like) million emails without complaint and when my ship had to dock an hour late they literally rearranged everything including my officiant to make sure I still got married. Their commitment went above and beyond and I would recommend them to EVERY SINGLE BRIDE looking to get married on the island.
Island Bliss Weddings's reply:
Thank you Elizabeth - you were such a dream to work with and I'm in love with your photos! We hope to see you back in the islands!

Best for Destination Wedding
We planned a vacation to St.Thomas Virgin Islands and decided to elope while we were there due to COVID. I found Island Bliss Wedding via google, and I am so happy and pleased I reached out. We literally emailed her about 3 weeks prior to the ceremony and Janelle made everything come together so beautifully and smooth from flowers, location, photographer, and decor.
She lays out everything she provides and expectations with communication. She was so quick to respond via email with all of my questions and requests. She will make your dream come to life, just ask tell her what you want.
I also loved that she gives suggestions for dinner, hair stylists, photographers,etc on the island. With someone not from St.Thomas, she made it easy for us to find local go to spots. My favorite part was that everything was stress-free for my husband and I to plan and on our actual wedding day. I would recommend Island Bliss Weddings to all my family and friends wanting a destination wedding.

We were one of the many 10/10/20 couples. Janelle was very understanding and flexible when it came to my emotional breakdowns, nearly cancelling. I am so happy we stuck it out with Island Bliss and our original wedding date, because it was perfect!!! I highly recommend their services.
Island Bliss Weddings's reply:
I'm so glad you stuck it out too! It hasn't been easy for Covid brides, with so much stress, but wow, the wedding photos say it all, it was a gorgeous day and so worth it!

Perfect wedding
There is no way I can put into words how great Janelle & her team is. When we started planning our wedding I had emailed/called about 4 wedding planners in St. Thomas and as soon as I had read her email and called her I knew I was going to love her. I still can’t get over how perfect everything was the day of the wedding. I had so many last minute changes and you wouldn’t even know it. Aaron and Stewart did a freakin amazing job and all I can say is the communication skills for this team are top notch. I couldn’t be happier with the team I had the privilege of meeting.

An absolute pleasure to work with
The experience with Jennelle and her crew could not have been any more delightful. Island bliss weddings made the experience easy to plan the wedding we wanted, communication as simple, professional and prompt, After we arrived on the island everything was exactly on point, Arron thank you for your help and information about the island as you drove us to the locations we needed to get to, your ceremonial words could not have been better. We really did have exactly the wedding we envisioned.

100% Would Do Again
I found Island Bliss Weddings in 2018 by doing a simple google search of "St. Thomas Weddings" and after reading their reviews, I decided to go for it. Janelle was so easy to work with and always had answers to my questions even if she was over 2,000 miles away. I was pretty laid back and only communicated with her via email but I did know that I had the option to call/text her if needed. I trusted her judgement in the vendors she recommended (hair & makeup, flowers, DJ, etc.) and none of them disappointed. Our wedding day was so perfect and everything went according to plan. Janelle and her husband were on site the entire time to make sure everything went according to plan. I cant rave enough about Janelle, and her team - Stuart & Aaron. They were so wonderful to us and really enjoyable to be around as people. I would 100% do this again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much to Island Bliss Weddings and to all the vendors that made our day so special!

Beyond exceptional!
Janelle with Island Bliss Weddings is amazing to work with. We got married on 6.22.19 on Trunk Bay. She was very quick to respond and when she didn't respond right away, she had sent an email or a post online advising us (her brides that she was working with at the time) why she could not respond right away and when she'd be getting back to us. If it was an emergency, she always had her phone on and would try to respond ASAP.
I can't describe how much help she was. She made my DREAM WEDDING a reality. When asked, the only answer I can give is that my wedding was "beyond my dreams" and "more than I could have EVER imagined."
She listened to my needs/wants/ideas and put together a day and evening I will NEVER FORGET! Whenever I had a change, it was no problem. When I didn't know an answer (because I couldn't picture it or some other reason), I put it in her hands, and she DID NOT DISAPPOINT! She helped with vendors (photographers, videographers, floral, music, restaurants). She gave us information on all and let us decide on them.
Scott, our Officiate, was awesome as well. He loves what he does and is so natural and happy while doing it. I received so many compliments on the service with Scott and how genuine he was (especially with meeting us just earlier that day!).
I had NO STRESS with my wedding. Everything came together absolutely PERFECT and beyond. Janelle and Scott will get it done, they'll make it work, they'll put it all together.
I cry every now and then because when I think back on my day and look back at our pictures, it was BEYOND PERFECT and I could not have dreamed of anything more.
THANK YOU Janelle and Scott for going ABOVE and BEYOND for us!
