    Our Key Largo Wedding

    We are from Indiana, so having a destination wedding can be difficult especially when you’re not from the area. Wendy was helpful is every way when planning my wedding states away! And she was even more helpful the day of the wedding. I never felt overwhelmed even when things didn’t go as planned. She was in constant contact with me the entire month of my wedding. I cannot recommend Wendy more. Especially if you’re having a destination wedding!! She’s everything you want and need in a planner!!!

    Made The Day SO Smooth

    We hired Wendy and her team as our Month of Wedding Coordinator and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We were coming from New Jersey and we wanted someone who not just knew the places but could also help us in that final crunch time. She made so many great recommendations after I gave her some invoices and pointed out things I should look into or do. One example was getting string lights for the beach area which I never would have thought of if not for her and our guests talked about how good of an idea that was. The day of the wedding also could not be more smooth. She was there early to make sure we got everything we ordered and were all in the perfect places. I am a worrier and I was nervous I was going to be anxious the whole day and during the wedding but Wendy put my mind at ease and we had the absolute best day ever in large part due to Wendy and her team.

    Professional

    Wendy and team were excellent. Poured rain on our wedding day, Wendy and team made the day low stress and was there to help with every decision. She made the day that much easier and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and her staff to anyone.

    Excellent Wedding Planner

    Wendy and her team was wonderful and patient. On the day of the wedding, everything was on schedule and according to plan. I opted for month of planning and Wendy definitely kept me on track while I was booking vendors. She made sure she had everything she needed to bring my vision to life on the day of the wedding.

No complaints on our end! Book it! Thank you to everyone who made our day perfect. We love you Cheeca Lodge!!

    Organized and reliable!

    Thank you Wendy and team for taking such care of my personal items on my wedding day. They set up everything just as I envisioned and boxed everything up at the end of the night with great care! Having her on-site really allowed me and our families to just be present in the moment!

    The best day!

    We were planning our wedding in the Keys from Ohio, so having Wendy’s expertise was extremely helpful! She knew the venue and what was needed, and she definitely helped me fill in so many detail gaps that I never even would’ve known were missing without her! Her attention to detail and overall organization was spot on and it truly allowed for us to not only have a stress free wedding day but the absolute best day! Thank you so much for your help!!!!

    Key Destination Weddings & Events's reply:

    Thank you Rachel and Brandon! We loved every single last second of your wedding weekend! Best wishes to you both! xoxo

    Beautiful Small Wedding/Elopement

    My husband and I were planning a wedding in the Keys with our immediate family while living on the West Coast. Dawn and Wendy were absolutely amazing across the entire wedding planning process. They had wonderful suggestions re: vendors and gave me a ton of choices without being overwhelming. Our wedding turned out gorgeous- and all without stress! Thank you so much for making it such a memorable day :)

    Outstanding, personable and professional! We love you all and thank you for a smooth relaxing wedding planning experience

    We couldn’t have found a better team to help us plan our Beautiful wedding day! From day one until we said “I DO” Wendy and her team made sure every detail along the way was covered, their communication with us and all the vendors through out the whole planning experience was very professional and reassuring. Wendy could tell just from an email or text if I was starting to panic and made a point to call me and meet with me to go over anything and everything I was concerned or unsure about for that I am forever grateful!🥰❤️ our whole wedding day was smooth sailing and absolutely gorgeous. Our family and friends are still talking about how our wedding day was one of the best weddings they’ve ever been too🥹 we couldn’t have done it without Wendy, Dawn and the rest of the Keys Destination Wedding and Events team, We love you all! and we really appreciate all the hard work and dedication you put in to make our day extra special!
    🥰😘 The Flynn’s

    Key Destinations was terrific!

    Our wedding in Key Largo went off without a hitch, thanks to Wendy and her team! They were very helpful with vendors, setting the timeline for the weekend, and most importantly ensuring everything went smoothly the day of the wedding! We would recommend them for any wedding or event.

    Wendy and her team were AMAZING!

    Wendy and her team did an amazing job on our wedding! We didn't have to worry about anything from start to finish. I was in awwww on how smoothly everything went. As a Bride your wedding can be hectic, but I honestly didn't feel that on our day at all. We got to enjoy it to the fullest because of Wendy and her team. Thank yo so much for allowing us the perfect day!

    Almost too good to be true!

    In the year leading up to the wedding, Wendy Cole at KeyDestinations Wedding planners surpassed what we had anticipated, by leaps and bounds. She made everything happen. Calm, super knowledgeable and professional - in those moments of potential despair - her demeanor was steady, delightful and reassuring. Every detail - ones that never occurred to us - was attended to. Her assistants were marvelous as well. As I've told so many, it could only have been better had it lasted longer! Gratitude is very deep here.

    Wendy was amazing, I had full trust in her and she delivered! Wendy was very timely, responsive, and nice! She set the wedding up beautifully and was so organized and detailed and had so much past knowledge. She thought of many things I never would think of. Would definitely recommend!!!

    Our destination wedding in Key Largo couldn't have been scripted any better. Wendy and her team delivered and provided an amazing wedding which ran flawlessly. Every aspect of pulling together all the vendor's - Annie our Officiant, Chef Drew's, DJ Mayner, Keys Audio Party Rental, to our hosting location - Coconut Palm Inn everything was handled timely and professionally including the weather! Thank you Wendy for making our special day amazing!

    Stress-Free Wedding Day!

    We had a destination wedding in the Florida Keys and my goal was to be 100% stress-free on our wedding day. Wendy and her team made that happen! I went with the month-of coordinator option since I was planning a wedding from out of town. Wendy was so helpful in the months leading up to our wedding, answering any questions I had via email about the process and regarding vendors. In the weeks leading up to our wedding she really went to work and made sure everything was taken care of with vendors and that each and every bit of the day-of schedule was ironed out. I am honestly not sure how I would have gotten by without her! I'm generally a great planner myself, but she knew so much about the process that I had absolutely no idea about. My wedding day was virtually flawless, and any minor issues were dealt with easily. I even broke a shoe fifteen minutes before walking down the aisle and Wendy was there in mere minutes with super glue! Absolutely phenomenal. I honestly could not reccommend Wendy and her team enough! Everyone at our wedding told me I was the most stress-free, happiest bride they had ever seen, and I know that was largely due to Wendy and her team having everything handled!

    Thank you so much Wendy and team!

    My husband and I worked with Wendy and her team for month of/day of coordination for our wedding and we are so grateful for Wendy and her team's help. Our day went by so smoothly thanks to them! I never once was worried or even thought about logistics the day of the wedding and got to fully enjoy the day and be present. The amazing coordination and organization stood out not only to us but also to our bridal party and family members which came up to us through out the weekend to let us know how impressed they were with how smooth everything went and how detailed our day of timeline was. Wendy and team, thank you so much for making our wedding day run seamlessly!

    I actually couldn’t have done it without her!

    I truly cannot imagine my wedding experience without Wendy. The thought of planning a destination wedding really overwhelmed me and I didn’t feel like I had the time to create the wedding I truly wanted. Luckily I found Key Destination Weddings & Events! Wendy was always available for questions I had, and had a solution for every issue I ran into. Even though the idea of a destination wedding felt scary at first, working with Wendy really made the experience seamless.
    The day of my wedding, all I had to do was walk down the isle, eat cake, and drink champagne. Wendy and her team handled every little detail allowing me to truly enjoy the day. She managed all the design elements of my wedding as well, and was able to create the modern tropical vibe of my Pinterest board dreams. I am forever grateful to Wendy for creating this day and these incredible memories for me!

    Fantastic and Flexible

    Wendy was amazing! We hired her for month-of coordination and we secured the major vendors, but then she swooped in and made all the details thereafter super easy—for both us and the vendors. We had our wedding planned for a beach but we were rained out but she fixed everything very quickly and we were married on a beautiful veranda. Not what we had planned but just as perfect! Also, I had to worry about nothing the day of. I was able to focus on my wedding and have lots of fun. If we had hired someone else with less experience with our venue, we likely would have gotten married inside, but Wendy knew our venue (Baker’s Cay) like the back of her hand and came up with the idea for the veranda. We are so thankful, and think having Wendy was one of our best investments in our wedding day.
