    Passionate Weddings is the BEST!!!

    Passionate Weddings with Diana Santiago guided us every step of the journey to help create an amazing wedding for our daughter and our new son-in-law. The scope of work for our wedding included onsite meetings, vendor recommendations,coordinating vendor contracts, payments and all vendor follow ups, interfacing with the local accommodations, invitations and communication with our guests throughout the wedding process. When we couldn’t make the floral on-site meeting, Diana attended and FaceTime us to helped to tweak the floral design. Throughout the process a Google document is shared and helps to keep every detail organized. The timeline Diana created of the
    rehearsal and wedding day coordination and guidance was indispensable. We didn’t have to worry about anything, Diana and her team took care of all the wedding day details. Additionally, Diana is able to be both a good listener for the bride and grooms vision of their wedding and help elevate the event with additional wedding ideas and suggestions. We had a fantastic experience with Passionate Weddings and highly recommend their services. The combination of keen attention to details, consistent communication and a positive attitude really made the wedding a magical experience.

    Dear Kate,

    We did it! It was a true honor and pleasure working together in these last 6 month on A&E wedding. Thank you for allowing us the trust to help guide the vision, managing logistics and finding the dream team of vendors. We enjoyed being part of the experience and the family unity!

    Best wishes always,
    Diana

    We couldn't have pulled it off without Passionate Weddings

    J and I are so grateful to you for helping to make our wedding everything we hoped it would be. Our guests raved how flawless and smooth everything went. Thank you again for working with us on making the final ceremony rain back up plan call. You saved all of us from rain and humidity.

    You and Bridget made everything possible! We appreciate you going above and beyond for us.

    Many thanks,
    J&J

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear J&J,
    It was a true pleasure working with you on all your wedding details. Yes, the rain back up plan call was a great client & team decision. Everything worked out nicely. Can't wait to see the photos!
    Thanks for allowing us to be part of your planning journey.

    Best,

    Amazing Team

    Full disclosure: I initially had my doubts about hiring a day of coordinator. Those doubts were erased when I hopped on the phone with Diana and was given the run down of the services provided. The description of “day of coordinator” does not do Justice to the services provided.

    Diana and her team were absolutely professional, well organized, friendly, and provided so much help to us in the lead up to and day of the wedding.

    I cannot recommend her and her team enough.

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Matthew,

    Thank you for your kind words and review. It was a pleasure being part of wedding and for allowing us to guide you and Nina through a seamless event.

    Best, Diana & Jenn

    Great Service

    I hired this company for my brother's wedding. Diana was a great host, made sure all guests were doing great, and walk us through the entire wedding preparation. Would definitely consider for my own wedding!

    10/10 for Passionate Weddings!

    Diana and Bridget with Passionate Weddings were absolutely AMAZING! The best money we spent on the wedding! They got us where we needed to be, when we needed to be there, all while making it feel seamless to us and our guests. They worked well with the other vendors and proved them with detailed communications and timelines along the way. They helped us feel at ease the entire day and we completely trusted them to carry out our timeline vision. I couldn’t recommend them enough. Honestly it’s one of the first thing I talk about when I am discussing our wedding day. Just truly in awe of their services and I couldn’t be happier!

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Bethany,

    Thank you so much for the heartwarming review. We enjoying being part of the planning and watching all the Greek wedding traditions all come to life. From the beautiful ceremony, cocktail hour vows and EPIC reception, it was a pleasure being part of your day!

    Best wishes,
    Passionate Weddings (Diana & Bridget)

    The Best Vendor Experience We Had!

    Diana and Bridget from Passionate Weddings gave us more than we could have hoped for our wedding day. They took away all of the day-of stress, working with our vendors, venue, and wedding party to make sure everything went smoothly. We greatly appreciated the effort they put in to make sure that the bride and groom were taken care of, giving attention to both individually as well as together. Small issues with other vendors were addressed and handled before we even knew about them. They advocated on our behalf when we wanted particulars from our venue, as well as when they believed other vendors had fallen short. From helping bustle the bride’s dress to collecting and setting up all decor, we truly felt like we could enjoy the day without having to worry about those things ourselves. On top of their amazing organization and execution of our wedding, we were so appreciative of their positivity and excitement throughout the time we worked with them. They were kind, approachable, great to get along with, and could also easily take control of situations when the time called for it. We cannot recommend their services enough.

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Matt,
    We're really grateful and appreciate you taking the time to share your rating with us. It was our true pleasure to make sure your day ran smoothly. We're glad that everyone an amazing time.

    Cheers to your new beginnings!

    Best choice we ever made!

    My wife and I hired Diana and her team at Passionate Weddings for their month-of coordinating services for a number of reasons. Firstly, it was important for us to have a bilingual coordinator, as my wife's family is Spanish-speaking, and Diana is fluent in three languages. Second, when we spoke with Diana on the phone, her extreme attention to detail stood out among the other coordinators we interviewed. From the moment we started working with her, we were so relieved to have made this choice! Diana was exceptionally responsive to all of our questions; she also provided us with recommendations that ended up panning out very well. She was organized and proactive, immediately getting in touch with all of our vendors to ensure everyone was on the same page. She sent out helpful reminders to us to make sure we were on track with everything we needed to be doing. On our wedding day, her and her team were truly MVPs. The whole day went off without a hitch, and any issue that came up (there were very few), Diana handled immediately. We truly felt that hiring her and her team was one of our best choices in the whole wedding process. I HIGHLY recommend Passionate Weddings!

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Jenny,

    Thanks so much for sharing your experience with us. We are so honored that our expertise and bilingual team created a positive experience during your wedding planning process /day of.
    We enjoyed watching your wedding day all come together. It was great to see you and your wife celebrating your unity with friends and family.

    Un abrazo bien grande, Passionate Weddings

    Above and Beyond Coordination Team

    Diana and her day-of coordination team were amazing! I could already tell after our first phone call that she was congenial, communicative, supportive, organized, and simply everything you would want out of a coordinator. I screened a few different coordinators, but Diana just stood out.

    She was incredibly helpful in the month leading up to the event. She truly went above and beyond to stay on top of all of the vendor communications, event timelines, and checking in with me and the groom. We absolutely got more than we expected in hiring Passionate Weddings!

    All we heard the days after our wedding was how our wedding party, friends, and family had so much fun! Everything was so organized, yet Diana and team were able to be adaptable to any change or disruption that came up.

    The year of planning would not have been worth anything without Diana's team to be there to help execute our vision. I can easily say that our wedding was the happiest day of my life, and it would not have been the same without Diana, Alvera, and Hanah. Do yourself and your guests the ultimate favor--choose Passionate Weddings :)

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Jenn,

    It was a true pleasure being part of your wedding planning experience out in Seattle, WA. Literally the perfect wedding day! Thank you for being such an amazing couple that provide us with great detailed information to ensure we captured your wedding day vision.

    Best wishes always,
    Passionate Weddings

    When searching for a wedding planner, we prioritized finding someone who had experience in planning multicultural weddings. Not only that, we were looking for a planner we could rely on to do the groundwork in DC since we were planning long-distance from New York. Upon our first meeting with Diana, we were thoroughly impressed by her knowledge of Brazilian and Chinese wedding traditions. She really listened to our vision and was able to help us find vendors who matched our specific needs/budgets. She was extremely helpful in finding decorations, even offering personal items like her own family's vases. Throughout the process, Diana was entirely supportive and understanding and maintained complete professionalism, always making sure all fees and services were clear and agreed upon. It was a sincere pleasure working with her and we highly recommend her to be your wedding planner!

    Went above and beyond!

    Diana was an incredible coordinator who really helped us achieve the best night of our lives! She was down for any idea we had and went the extra mile with the small things to make us feel special.

    For example, our friends mentioned a few days before how we love fried chicken and she had the great idea to grab us some so we can sneak away and take really fun photos!

    She definitely went above and beyond our expectations with her fun personality and exceptional organization. Her response time was very quick and she easily answered all the questions we had throughout the planning process.

    We would highly recommend Passionate Weddings if you want a dedicated and easy-to-work-with coordinator!

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Rebecca,
    Thank you so much for your review. It was a pleasure working with you and Collin. We enjoyed being part of your EPIC wedding!

    Cheers on your upcoming wedding anniversary!

    A thankful mother of the bride

    My daughter chose Passionate Weddings to provide Month-of-Coordination services and I'm so glad she did. Diana paid attention to all the details, including many things we hadn't thought of. With Diana taking care of the details, we all enjoyed the wedding day with minimum stress on the Bridal party. She is a skilled communicator who stepped in to take care of things when needed and then faded to the background to let the wedding party shine. Her calm demeanor and cheerful presence is an asset. I can't imagine how the day would have gone without her support and skilled direction.

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Leslie,

    Thank you for your wonderful kind words and trust. We're so honored to have been part of Kathryn & Billy's wedding planning experience. We're so glad to hear that both families, the wedding party and guests all had a great time celebrating with the newlyweds.

    Warmly,
    Passionate Weddings

    Wonderful - so pleasant to work with and on top of everything

    Diana was so wonderful to work with. She was the day-of wedding coordinator for our daughter's summer wedding reception at the Hendry House in Arlington, VA. Before the big day, she met us at the site for a walk-through, provided helpful input that guided our pre-planning, reviewed all the contracts and event plans in advance to be fully prepared, and was a lifesaver on the day of the event (including running out to fetch an item that I had forgotten - crackers for the cheese platters!). I can't say enough great things about her. She is a lovely person, so pleasant and positive, putting everyone at ease. All the vendors loved her too, including the back-of-the-house staff. And she knows her stuff and has a handle on all.the.details. That was especially important for our venue where we had multiple vendors bringing everything to the site - tent, tables, chairs, etc, etc. Hire Diana and you will not regret it!
    PS: She is also fluent in Spanish, which was especially important for our bilingual event.

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Kristine,

    Thank you so much for your kind words and review. We truly enjoying being part of S & A's special day. It was the perfect summer reception to celebrate their unity and anniversary!

    Best Bilingual Wedding Management Business!

    Diana and her team truly made our wedding day unforgettable! In 2019, my now-husband, Selvin, and I were trying to mentally prepare ourselves for the stress that comes with wedding planning. However, as soon as COVID-19 hit in 2020, we were a mess! We had our initial call with Diana before COVID-19, where we had a large expected guest list. However, we had to pause on reaching out to vendors and confirming with them because we weren’t sure what we would do in the middle of COVID-19. During the stress of it all, Diana was so patient with us as we tried to figure things out. She was there for us even BEFORE we booked her! We knew right there and then that if the wedding were to go on, Diana had to be part of it. Initially, we went back-and-forth with hiring a day-of-coordinator, but booking with Diana was the BEST decision we could have made. We began working together towards the end of October 2020, once we had downsized our guest list. She immediately began sending us everything from shared documents to lists of things to work on. I was amazed. I am detailed myself and therefore I appreciated Diana’s extreme attention to detail and efficient responses. She worked so well with both Selvin and I.

    If anyone is undecided about a coordinator, I HIGHLY recommend allocating space in the budget, if possible, for Diana. The feeling of knowing that someone you trust is handling everything on wedding day is absolutely amazing! I cannot express that enough. Selvin and I were able to be 100% present with our wedding party/guests and enjoy every moment of the wedding. We never saw any of the stress that went on behind the scenes because Diana and her team managed it all! We would get updates constantly and felt supported by Diana every step of the way. Our family and guests continued to say how organized and effortless everything was- all thanks to Diana and her team! Lastly, we initially removed the “send-off” from our timeline, but Diana was able to make it happen with some of our guests – which was the perfect way to end the night. These gestures meant so much to us. After the wedding, she provided an amazing recap and even looked-out for us with anything that came up with the church/venue. Selvin and I truly felt that Diana cared to make the day as special as possible, which made the whole experience super comfortable and beautiful.

    Diana – thanks again! Forever grateful!

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Dear Yuri,
    Thank you and Selvin for your kindest words (prayer hands) and review. We know that this year has been a whirlwind for 2020 wedding couples. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity and trust to work together. We we you all the best and many more years of happiness. Cheers to getting married in 2020 under an unforgettable wedding day weather.

    COVID Wedding Lifesaver!

    Diana is an absolute lifesaver!! I started meeting potential day-of coordinators 11 months before our wedding and Diana was the only coordinator I had an instant connection with. She was responsive, punctual, professional, detail-oriented, personable, and most importantly bilingual (to accommodate my Spanish speaking family)!! She was slightly above our budget but she worked with us on a suitable compromise. Wedding planning was going great until the pandemic hit and everything shutdown. Diana was the first vendor to email us about waiving her rescheduling fees. And that’s when she became our savior. As many COVID brides know, trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic was nearly impossible. All the rules had changed and in our case our venue had temporarily closed. Once we informed Diana, she not only provided us a new venue contact but reached out to them personally to make sure we were all set. That’s just one example of how Diana went above and beyond by using her resources and determination to answer all our wedding questions and concerns. Ultimately, we decided to postpone our wedding reception but kept our original wedding date for a more “intimate” wedding ceremony (

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Wow! Thank you Evelyn for your kind words and review! Your wedding will also be VERY memorable to us. We’re so glad we got to be part of it. Thank you for your trust in allowing us to make your special day stress-free. Can’t wait to celebrate again next year!

    The Dream Team

    Words can't express how amazing Diana, Christin, and Alyssa are and how grateful I am for them. Diana and Christin extracted every fine detail you can think of and laid it all out for the big day. They brought up details that a first-time bride wouldn't think of such as gratuity and the aftermath and much more- things that if you didn't have a planner, you would freak out about if you weren't Type A. Christin and Alyssa did a phenomenal job the day of. All I had to do was show up. They took care of every fine detail that I was worried about and effectively executed each step. It rained- I wasn't worried. The DJ forgot to announce my parents- I wasn't worried. At the end of the night, I was so wild, I couldn't remember how to tie my shoe- I wasn't worried. Christin and Alyssa literally took care of ALL of it.

    Not only did they take care of it all the issues that popped up, they also had fun themselves. I've heard from a lot of vendors that sometimes the planner is more of a planzilla compared to the bride- they're not that type. They were helpful, productive, troubleshot issues but enjoy their time as well. If I were to do this all over again, they would be the first people I call, hands down. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend.

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Lisa for your review! We're honored to have been part of your celebration. We enjoyed working with you and all your vendors to make sure that you and Jeff had an amazing day! We wish you both a lifetime of everlasting love and happiness.

    Outstanding

    Diana and the Passionate Weddings team were the quickest and most efficient team I have ever seen. They handled every last minute request, snag or change of plans like true professionals. The whole wedding flowed like a dream and we got multiple compliments from our family and guests about how flawless and easy the day felt. I wholeheartedly recommend them to every other bride who is looking for a cool, calm and collected planner.

    Passionate Weddings's reply:

    Thank you Marie! We're so humbled by your review. It was our pleasure working with you and Jack to help fine tune all the final details leading up to your special day. We're so glad you had a wonderful time celebrating with all your family and friends.

    One of the Best wedding planner in DMV area

    For engaged couples having a wedding should consider Passionate Weddings as their planner or coordinator. I worked together with Diana for the first time on a South Asian wedding at the Tysons McLean Hilton. She has excellent communication skills with her couple and vendors. Her detailed timeline cover everything a DJ needs to know about the day, name of the wedding party, the song selections, timeline you name it. With Diana's expertise, she know how to manage a large group of guests with a wedding that had lots of moving pieces. Passionate Weddings is highly recommended.

    Thank you Jay!

    My fiancé and I got engaged on Christmas Day of 2017. Around April of 2018, my fiancé decided that she wanted to have our wedding on our anniversary date that year – November 11. I felt the decision was a bit rash with only 7 months to plan and coordinate a wedding. Doubting that anything would materialized, I allowed my fiancé to humor her own idea of planning and coordinating a wedding. Four months into the planning, I realized that this wedding was going to happen and IMMEDIATELY encouraged her to consider acquiring a month-of wedding coordinator. It took a while for my fiancé to realize that she could not be the bride and the person to execute her vision on her wedding day – it is not possible. My sister who was also planning a wedding (2019) had mentioned to me that she had acquired a month-of wedding coordinator and was very pleased with her decision. I had asked my sister for more information which brought us to Passionate Wedding Planning Services. My fiancé chatted with Diana over a phone call and was immediately impressed by the preliminary help and advice provided during her consultation. My fiancé was so set on acquiring a month-of coordinator from Passionate Wedding Planning Services that we adjusted our wedding budget to accommodate having Diana as our month-of wedding coordinator. With four months to go until our wedding date, I could immediately sense a huge amount of weight taken off my fiancé’s shoulders. My fiancé and Diana had several email exchanges and phone conversations during the month leading up to the wedding. Details of vendors contracts, payments, wedding day timeline were meticulously combed over and refined. We had a preliminary finalized timeline a week prior to our wedding date. This PDF document covered every possible detail you could imagine relating to the wedding day. The timeline was shared with all our vendors to ensure that my fiancé’s vision for our wedding day was executed. Our wedding day was wonderful. Our photographer knew when and where to be to for photos. Diana coordinated transportation from our hotel to our photo session and to the venue. Throughout the day, I would question myself – how in the world would we have been able to pull this off without a wedding coordinator! Our wedding day was amazing. Our guest had a blast. We were even able to enjoy the food and music we selected all thanks to Diana. I would highly encourage anyone considering a month-of wedding coordinator to get one without hesitation. And from my experience, I highly recommend Passionate Wedding Planning Services. Thank you Diana and her assistant Christin for making our wedding day memorable, enjoyable and stress-free.

    “Words can not express how much we LOVED working with Passionate Weddings. Diana and her team are AMAZING! Diana helped us plan our entire destination beach wedding and reception in under 3 months. When we thought it was impossible, she made it possible. She captured our entire vision while keeping us calm and organized from the very beginning. Our wedding day was very relaxed and perfectly coordinated. We are truly and forever grateful for all of Diana’s guidance, trust, and expertise in making our wedding planning process a wonderful experience.”

    Christin and Diana were terrific to work with! I hired them for "month of" wedding preparation, but our conversations started well in advance of the last month, mostly because I didn't want to leave any of the details to be finalized until the last month! I was pretty organized and kept detailed notes and contact information for my vendors, and also drafted a thorough timeline for the whole wedding weekend. But, most critical of all, Christin and Diana did an absolutely amazing job executing my timeline and all of my preparation and hard work! I felt like they were asking all of the right questions at the right time and taking care of details that I had forgotten about or just didn't have the time to take care of; either way, they were making my wedding SO MUCH BETTER. Christin put in 15 hours of work on my wedding day (10am-1am) and her assistant put in 12 hours (1pm-1am) - it's a long day! They were one of the only companies that could accommodate those long hours without charging exceptionally high rates. Given all the work, and the long hours on the day of the wedding, their price was more than fair, and their work was terrific. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

    Thank you Justyna for the kind review. Christin and I enjoyed working with you and Adam. Congratulations again!

    Diana did a wonderful job planning my Son’s wedding. She worked closely with my daughter in law for over a year to make sure the day was perfect and exactly what she wanted. Diana paid attention to every detail to make sure the wedding was organized and beautiful. On the wedding day, she took care of all of the logistics so we could all enjoy ourselves and not have to worry about anything except celebrating and having a good time. The wedding would not have been the same without Diana and we are so grateful for everything she did to make the day perfect!

    Diana and Minh are a great team! Diana worked closely with me for a year and a half to make our day perfect. She made planning easy, fun, and kept me so organized. She reviewed contracts with me, helped me select vendors, scheduled meetings at the venue, made a day of timeline, kept all vendors updated, reminded me of payments due, organized all RSVPs, kept our wedding party organized, and handeled so many logistics on the day of. Because of Passionate Weddings, I was able to relax on my big day and enjoy every second. I didn't have to worry about anything and was able to have a stress-free wedding day since Passionate Weddings handled set up, clean up, and keeping everyone on schedule. Diana is incredibly kind, helpful, organized, generous, and friendly. She is amazing at what she does and her services are truly pricelss. I am so glad that Passionate Weddings played such a big role in our wedding. I would highly recommend Passionate Weddings. Our day would not have been as perfect as it was without Diana and her team. We are so grateful and happy with our choice!

    Amazing, stress free experience!

    I worked with Diana from Passionate Weddings on a styled wedding shoot here in Seattle. We had a little over a month to plan everything and she wrangled together a full set of vendors, kept everything extremely organized, was always quick to respond to emails, and helped the shoot flow well. She eliminated all the stress I normally feel going into a styled shoot!

    Although Passionate Weddings is new to the Seattle area, I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Diana. She is a powerhouse at planning and organizing! I love that she is bilingual and full of knowledge about cultural traditions and I’m looking forward to working with Passionate Weddings again!

    I’ve wirked with several planners and Diana is the best by by far. My husband and I worked with her to plan a two day event and she carried us all the way through. I will be using Diana for all my events in the future. There’s nobody better!

    Diana worked with us during the month leading up to our wedding. I interviewed countless wedding planners, and Diana made it easy to decide to work with her. I could tell by our phone conversation that she was confident, smart, professional, and would get the job done right. My intuition was correct.

    From the start, Diana made herself available even before our month-of contract started if I had questions about vendors or needed advice. She sent us several forms to get started on, such as a packing list, so we had plenty of time to work on everything. She was so organized and I knew she would have everything covered.

    A month out, Diana came on board full force. She immediately set up a meeting with us, set up the walk-through with our vendors at the venue, sent us a few more forms (like a template for doing the table seating), and made herself very available by email and phone whenever we had questions. Her 10-page timeline of our entire wedding day included everything, color coded, from vendor setup, to transportation for each person in our wedding party and where they needed to be and when, and so much more. She finalized the details with all the vendors, took care of setting up our personal items, and made sure the day went as planned.

    Just like any wedding, our day had some hiccups. Diana rolled up her sleeves and we never even knew about these hiccups as they were happening. For example, our venue had a very short setup time, and Diana was with all the vendors doing whatever she could do help everyone set up on time. And when the band disappeared (yes, they disappeared!), she actually went to the neighboring restaurants to track them down!

    Last but not least, Diana brings two associates with her. There's just no way for one person to take care of everything, so this was critical. I had one associate with me all day to hold my purse, provide water, etc.

    Look no further than Passionate Weddings. It's the obvious choice!!
