    Made Our Dream Destination Wedding a Reality

    We found Talbot through a friend and could not be happier with our decision. Before we even paid a retainer, he got on a call with us, listened to our vision, and offered recommendations that helped us find our venue in Puerto Vallarta. He fully embraced our idea of a full destination weekend, a Friday welcome party, Saturday wedding, and Sunday pool party, came prepared with ideas that elevated each event, and worked through every challenge we threw at him calmly and creatively. His local network was one of the biggest advantages of working with him. He helped us find our photographer, DJ, ceremony guitarist, and more, and because he had worked at our venue many times before, coordination and setup were smooth from start to finish.

    When the weekend arrived, Talbot was exactly where he needed to be at every moment, available without ever being intrusive. His team transformed the venue on wedding day with remarkable speed and professionalism, and the turnaround between the wedding and our Sunday pool party left our guests genuinely amazed. He even coordinated our own shuttle transportation and surprise entertainment so we never had to think about them. His installment payment structure was an added bonus, meaning once the weekend arrived, we weren't dealing with cash, pesos, or any last-minute logistics. Planning a destination wedding can be overwhelming. Talbot made it enjoyable, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone considering a wedding in Puerto Vallarta.

    The most talented wedding planner!

    Talbot is truly such an incredible and talented wedding planner. From the very beginning, he understood my vision and brought my pink wedding dream to life in a way that exceeded anything I could have imagined. I sent him a few Pinterest inspirations, and instead of just recreating them, he elevated every detail and made it feel completely unique and personal to me.

    His creativity, attention to detail, and ability to transform ideas into something magical is unmatched. The florals were absolutely stunning. To this day, our guests are still talking about how beautiful everything looked and how unforgettable the ambiance was. The entire night felt like a dream come to life, and that is entirely thanks to Talbot’s vision and execution.

    Beyond his talent, he was also such a joy to work with throughout the entire process. He was professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. I felt completely at ease knowing he was handling everything.
    If you are looking for someone who will not only bring your vision to life but elevate it beyond your expectations, Talbot is the one. I cannot recommend him enough.

    San Pancho wedding

    Talbot helped plan and execute 4 events for my daughter’s wedding in San Pancho in May. We had a welcome dinner party at our home with open bar, dinner and live band. The caterer and band chosen by Talbot were wonderful and very professional. The following day, Talbot assisted with a pool party at the local beach club with open bar, lunch and DJ. Again- a great event! That night Talbot organized a rehearsal dinner at the polo club with mariachis, dinner, open bar and live music. Finally, Talbot planned and executed the wedding and reception back at the beach club. Absolutely flawless! At each event, the food, decor and flow were perfect! He has impeccable taste and it showed! His hair/make up and photography referrals were spot on, and he also helped with the transportation of our guests to and from each event - not an easy task considering that people stayed at @10 different hotels and rental properties! Most importantly, Talbot’s expertise and confidence allowed my family to relax and enjoy each event. Thanks to Talbot and his team, my daughter’s wedding dreams all came true.

    Absolutely 5 STARS

    Talbot was an absolute delight to work with and played a huge role in making our wedding so special. From our first conversation, he was warm, easygoing, incredibly organized, and always attentive to even the smallest details. He seemed to intuitively understand our vision and brought it to life better than we imagined.

    Talbot made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free, and on the wedding day everything came together flawlessly. He truly exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be more grateful!!!

    Best money we’ve ever spent

    We booked Talbot after our first conversation because he immediately put our minds at ease. Planning a wedding in a city you don’t live in can be a little unnerving. You have to take the planner at their word for a lot of recommendations. Food, the DJ, etc. but Talbot made us feel totally in control throughout the entire process. When the big day came he was so on top of everything. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Best money that we have ever spent. Book Talbot and you won’t be disappointed.

    Exceeded our wildest dreams

    Talbot and his team are magic makers. They created an unforgettable wedding weekend for us at the end of April. Our family and friends are still buzzing about it. From the food, to the venues (welcome party and wedding) to the music, everything was perfection.

    There is a lot of trust that goes into planning a wedding in another country and Talbot proved why he was the one for the job. I work in events so relinquishing some of that control was only going to happen if I had the utmost confidence in our planner. We would have truly been lost without his guidance and expertise. Every vendor he recommended was amazing. Talbot also does his own florals and what he created for our Welcome Party and our Wedding felt like something out of a magazine. I was so relaxed leading into everything because I knew he had my back and all I had to do was sit back and enjoy.

    If you want someone to make your wedding dreams come true - Talbot is your person.

    Planned the wedding of our dreams!

    Talbot was absolutely incredible from the beginning stages of planning through the execution of our dream wedding weekend. He acted as a true partner and consultant by helping us turn our vision into a reality. Our guests shared that the wedding was the most beautiful and entertaining wedding they had ever been to and I attribute so much of this to Talbot. The weekend was full of intimate details, fun surprises, and it was visually stunning. I cannot recommend Talbot enough. It was a 10/10 experience and he is an incredible human to match!

    The BEST Wedding Planner Of All Time

    Words cannot truly express how incredible of a wedding planner, Talbot Ross is. He exceeded my expectations in every way possible and gave me the wedding of my dreams. I discovered a ceremony that he had done on Pinterest, and knew exactly at that moment that I had to have him plan my wedding wedding, and get married under the same beautiful trees overlooking the ocean at the St. Regis Punta Mita resort. From the start of planning to the day of the wedding, Talbot was nothing but exceptional in communication, coordination, support, and advice. I knew from the first time that I met Talbot that I could trust him to plan a perfect wedding weekend for our closest family and friends. We immediately clicked, and after giving him some inspirational photos of my ideas of the vibe of the events of my wedding weekend, I had no doubt he would surpass my expectations and make my dreams become a reality. And he did. Talbot is everything that a bride to be could ask for in a wedding planner. He is very honest and straightforward, helpful and supportive, and willing to give honest advice in order to provide you with the best wedding possible. My husband and I are forever grateful that our paths crossed because he gave us, our closest friends, and family members, a weekend that will be remembered for the rest of our lives. I cannot say enough good things about Talbot, but I will say that I am so happy with the wedding weekend that he planned for us and how incredibly special he made us feel. He is truly a one of a kind gem, both as a person and a wedding planner. So thank you Talbot for giving me the most beautiful wedding of my wildest dreams and for surpassing all of my expectations going in to our wedding weekend. Zachary and I truly cannot thank you enough for all that you’ve done for us. For any future brides & grooms, I can assure you that you can trust Talbot Ross to fulfill your wedding vision and exceeded your expectations, while giving your friends and family and event they will always remember.

    Also, if you are working with Talbot, we HIGHLY recommend working with Taryn Baxter, our photographer, and Graham Mattock, our videographer. They are called the ‘Dream Team’ for a reason!

    Dream wedding weekend

    Talbot helped make our dream destination wedding come true. It was wonderful working with him to make our wedding weekend festivities so special. We valued his keen eye for design and beautiful floral arrangements. He listened to what we had envisioned and made our wedding even better than we could have imagined. We received so many compliments from our guests about not only our wedding, but Talbot himself. We’re so happy we had the chance to work with him and his wonderful team.

    Amazing wedding weekend!

    Talbot Ross Events created an amazing wedding weekend for our daughter at the St. Regis, Punta Mita. Not only is Talbot creative in his design, but he also understands the timeline and flow of a party, how to use entertainment and crank up the energy. He created a gorgeous lounge on the beach for our Welcome Party and coordinated the music and entertainment. His design of the wedding ceremony and reception was exceptional. The decor was sophisticated and captured the culture of Mexico, using local resources and florals. Our guests felt treated to an extraordinary experience and were highly complimentary of the decor, the entertainment, the food and service, the energy and vibe, much of which is to Talbot's credit. Talbot also understands the dynamics of working with resort staff, and has an outstanding vision for the use of the property. He created privacy within the resort for all of the events, and used the natural beauty of the beach and oceanfront, together with lighting, florals and tabletop decor to create a magical experience. He guided and choreographed the flow and timing of the wedding day and reception, which allowed us to fully enjoy every minute and was beyond our expectations.
    I would highly recommend Talbot Ross Events to anyone planning an event in the Puerto Vallarta area.

    Simply Amazing

    I hired Talbot Ross Events to do my do my BIG birthday party (more on the scale of a wedding than a birthday party) and I could not be more happy with his services. Talbot knocked it out of the park. The flowers were so beautiful and well thought out all the guest were clamouring to take them home at the end of the night. Everything from communication, organization, design, entertainment and co-ordination could not have been executed better. His knowledge and advice are invaluable. When he gives you advice, do yourself a favor and take it, he knows what he is doing. He is calm, cool and collected and reeled me in when needed as I was very nervous about the big day. All of my guest told me it was the best party they have ever been to and his staff took care of all of them. I am still on cloud 9 and could not be happier with my experience.

    Best planner we could've asked for!

    We had extremely high expectations and Talbot managed to exceed all of them. From our beach party the night before our wedding to the actual wedding, everything was executed exceptionally with minimal work on our part. We couldn't be happier with the vendors Talbot brought us. We feel we received the best of the best in terms of service provided but most importantly how kind and caring everyone we worked with was. Our guests can't stop raving about how amazing our wedding was. We are forever grateful to Talbot and his team for giving us the best day ever!

    Best Wedding Decision Ever!!

    We are still dreaming of our wedding as are all of our guests too. The last week has felt like we just won an Oscar, Grammy and a Tony.. all in the same night, WOW! Today has been the first day that we are going through photos and videos. This high is the strongest we have ever felt. We are not sure that there are any words to express our gratitude and forever love to you. The tale we lived that week and the amazing night we all had will be ingrained into our memories forever. Truly the event of the century.

    Our most wild dreams and ideas were surpassed by a landslide. This was OUR moment and YOU made it so damn special for us. We know this is your job but this was truly something so priceless. We could go on and on but we really just want you to know how special and loved we felt. From the bottom of our hearts Talbot...thank you thank you! We have been shedding tears of joy on a daily basis and never want it to stop.

    We are already planning dates for a one year anniversary. We were thinking of a villa for a 3 day weekend with a party on Friday night. We cannot wait to speak with you and perhaps have dinner in the near future.

    I think my Vows(Luis) will now apply to our wedding you made happen. 'If I had a flower for every time we thought about our wedding... we could walk through our garden forever.."

    We cannot wait for our photos and videos to come!! Talbot, you hold a very special place in our hearts forever. This team of yours absolutely crushed it and there is no doubt you are the BEST out there.

    Talbot is the best!

    Talbot is the greatest wedding planner there is! He helped execute our dream vision for 90 guests in Puerto Vallarta in April of 2023. He's truly a visionary and designs the most gorgeous events (the florals are to die for!). From the moment we met him over the phone, we could tell Talbot had a calmness and confidence that you need in a wedding planner- especially one that's helping you plan a wedding outside of your own country. We weren't able to make a trip to see the venue before booking, but fully trusted Talbot's recommendation. His team goes above and beyond on the day of the event to make it run as smooth as possible.

    A very special Wedding Planner

    There are so many wonderful things to say about Talbot Ross it is hard to know where to start! If I could give more than a 5 star review, I would do so. Talbot planned my daughter's wedding at Villa La Mansion and it was spectacular. He is an incredible wedding planner who is also kind, genuine and very easy to work with. From our initial contact with Talbot until the completion of the wedding weekend, he guided us through the process with calmness and ease.
    Talbot's impeccable taste, attention to detail and sophisticated touches created a wedding that was both elegant and breathtaking. He handled every detail from the Welcome Party to the day after brunch giving my daughter and son-in-law a magical weekend they will always remember. The decor, table arrangements, florals, fireworks (I could go on and on!) and seamless execution of the wedding day was flawless.
    I would recommend Talbot and his amazing team for any event large or small. We can't thank you enough Talbot for giving my daughter and entire family a wedding we will never forget!

    Dream wedding

    Talbot single handedly made the wedding of our dreams happen. I want to start by saying that Talbot is such a kind and genuine person and so easy to work with. I said multiple times throughout the planning process that I don’t know what I would have done without Talbot.

    We had our wedding at Four Seasons, Punta Mita. We were set that we wanted the wedding at four seasons, although the reception choices were limited. Talbot went to four seasons and scouted venue options for us and picked the absolute best spot to have our wedding which was coral beach house! I sent Talbot some inspiration pictures and he absolutely nailed it! It was so amazing how little I had to communicate with Talbot through the process and yet he had everything completely under control. It was something I never had to worry about and had to put little personal time into, and he got everything done behind the scenes. Trust that he knows what he is doing and he will deliver!

    Our reception was in front of coral beach house, ocean front, with a large dance floor, long tables, candles, flowers, twinkle lights etc. Not only were the flowers and decor on point, but Talbot also constructed the dance floor for us. We ran into a problem when we realized the four seasons had recently done a remodel of the beach front area of coral beach house (where the wedding was taking place) and put in a fire pit that could not be moved. Talbot said “no problem do not worry I know what to do” and created a raised dance floor for us over the fire pit! It was amazing.

    Day of wedding, Talbot was calm and collected and made the wedding day a breeze. As a bride, you just want to enjoy your day and stay in the moment. Talbot made sure I got to do that and handled everything. All of my guests raved about the wedding and said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. Talbot’s decor is timeless and elegant. I wish I could do the entire day over again. With Talbot by your side, you need to just sit back, relax, and know your day will be amazing! Thank you so much to Talbot and his team who worked so hard setting up our wedding and making it a night I will never forget!!!

    Talbot Ross Events is first class in every aspect of planning!

    Were do I event start?! Talbot Ross is such an incredible event/wedding planner. From our initial meeting with Talbot through the big week, the process was absolutely wonderful. Talbot has such a calming presence about him and truly understands how to plan a once in a lifetime experience regardless of the occasion. As this was for our wedding, we wanted to ensure we had someone who could navigate the challenges that were undoubtedly going to arise and of course, some did. Fortunately for us, Talbot was our steward and made sure the wedding could handle the challenges faced and somehow had a way of making it seem like nothing had even changed - challenges averted due to Talbot! From the time we began working together I felt comfortable letting Talbot make the majority of decisions as he is the professional, and what a great decision it was. I realized early on in the process that Talbot does this for a living and his expertise should be trusted, which 100% proved to be the correct decision. The venue's were beyond what I could even imagine and the beauty as well as cadence of the weekend were unparalleled. My wife and I spoke about the events (Talbot planned three (3) days for us in Punta Mita - 1. Welcome Party 2. Wedding (ceremony and reception) and 3. a pool party) after we had some time to take a breath and relax after the amazing weekend. We both agreed that there wasn't a single thing we would have changed during the course of the weekend. I never felt like the events were rushed but at the same time felt that everything was moving at the perfect pace to truly take in the magic of our special weekend with our closest friends and family. I can not recommend Talbot highly enough to plan your special event. He was gracious, kind, funny and simply a good time to work with! 11/10 stars for this man!! We will be encouraging family and friends to work with Talbot in the future and look forward to visiting with him during our next trip to Puerto Vallarta and Punta Mita!

    Above and Beyond

    There are not enough fantastic things I could say about Talbot and his team. He truly exceeded all (very high) expectations. We had a few hiccups with our wedding location and Talbot helped walk us through everything, be our advocates, and plan what many people refer to as the best and most beautiful wedding they have ever been to. He also became a guest favorite appearing in many instagram posts later on!

    Talbot took my hazy vision and turned it into something beyond my imagination. It was truly perfect and flawless in every way. The three day event was so smooth running. I would clone him and gift every bride I know him and his team if I could.

    Fairytale wedding

    Talbot gave us the destination wedding of our dreams! He was professional, understanding, and creative. He allowed us to enjoy planning our wedding without the stress and complication of planning outside of the country. He gave us uniqueness, wow moments and elegance from start to finish. A truly fairytale wedding that our guests and us will never forget.

    Incredible

    It was an absolute pleasure to have Talbot planned and executed our dream wedding. He was incredibly responsive and gave the best advice when it comes to our day. He is also extremely kind and his professionalism is on another level. We were glad to choose Talbot as our wedding planner, and I would definitely recommend to anyone who would like to hire a planner in PV.

    Talbot is the best

    We left our wedding weekend with the decision that we need Talbot Ross Events for any major events from here on out- no matter the location.

    Talbot Ross Events did so much for us. I am in awe of the company Talbot runs, and his ability to personalize the entire planning experience. Not only did he plan and execute an incredible day for us, he taught us so much about efficiency, patience and communication.

    Our event was complex, we had separate locations around Punta Mita for getting ready, the wedding mass, and our reception. Talbot coordinated with us at each location with grace and made the entire day very easy and enjoyable. He worked with us on every curveball; from coordinating with our Church, budget discussions and advice, a 50% increase in anticipated guest count, out of town wedding band, last minute musician additions, the list goes on and on. Talbot is no drama, direct, and efficient while still being kind and personal, he is a joy to work with. Trust his pace and his process, because he knows what he is doing.
    Talbot and his team also ran our wedding day smoothly and beautifully. He helped us be present in the moment and made sure we savored all the love of the day.
    He listened to our priorities and made sure our timeline reflected it. Using his wide network of connections and incredible design talent he worked with each vendor directly to plan a beautiful reception. We are very thankful for Talbot, and his entire team, and look forward to working with them again.

    Dream Come True!

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Talbot and his staff. He was always quick to respond to my emails and was always willing to set up a phone call to discuss our wedding details. I explained my vision for our wedding and he made it into a reality that exceeded our expectations. The day of the wedding, his staff were very attentive and helpful. Every detail of the wedding was perfectly executed with care and attention. Wonderful wonderful wonderful!!

    The day was perfection!

    A pandemic wedding never to be forgotten! My fiancé (Cole) and I were lucky enough to be referred to Talbot when we started talking about the idea of getting married in the PV area in January of 2021. Actually we were flat out told - if you want to get married in the area Talbot is the man you want to be working with, he’s incredible. From our initial call we hit it off immediately and after looking at his Instagram profile I was all in. Something that was extremely important to us (and always has been) was experiences and we could see that was Talbot’s end goal in the pictures that he would share. Then let’s also talk about the pandemic. In January the vaccine had come out and I was convinced we’re going to be done with Covid by the summer and we planned a December 2021 wedding.

    We were so excited throughout the planning - Talbot had found a perfect private location for our wedding - La Mansion - a beautiful villa overlooking the bay and PV. I told him the most important thing for me was that I wanted to capture the colors and beauty of Mexico - and he did just that - truly a “Mexican Chic” experience. Well one week before the wedding Cole went to get tested for Covid and came back positive. And we called Talbot. Right away he came up with a contingency plan pending the PCR results we were waiting on and when I asked him what we needed to do he said “take care of Cole”. I still tear up thinking about that. The next day it was confirmed that he was positive and Talbot asked if we still wanted to do think about getting married in PV. The answer was a quick yes from us both and within 2 days we had a new date - 1/23 - Talbot didn’t waste a minute. As upsetting as all of this was we were thrilled as he had managed to secure all of the same vendors we had lined up for December. He checked in on us a few times that week to see how we were both doing and we appreciated that more than he will ever know. Throughout the last few months of planning and checking in along with us meeting him live in September to do a walk through and a tasting - Talbot had become a friend.

    Fast forward to January Cole and I decided to isolate and not see a soul to not take any chances on wedding 2.0 as we were calling it Talbot was keeping us up to date on all things Omicron - because why wouldn’t we have a new variant getting in the way from wedding 1.0? As we were landing in PV I got a text asking if we arrived safely and from that point on I decided to leave everything to in Talbot’s very capable hands.

    As we met with him in the villa the day before the wedding to do a quick rehearsal he took charge and you could tell he would do everything to make sure our day was perfect.

    From the time our guests arrived and were greeted with ice cold refreshments, escorted downstairs to the beach area that Talbot had transformed with the most beautiful floral arrangements and sat down in his wooden chairs that each had hand painted maracas everyone was blown away. We had a Spanish guitarist that our guests enjoyed as they waited for the ceremony to begin and that we all walked down the aisle to. When he asked me if I’m ready to go I do remember looking at him and at my parents and tearing up a little bit and we were off! The ceremony was visually stunning from what he created and as we were pronounced husband and wife a Mariachi band surprised our guests from them above area and kicked off our cocktail hour. As our guests moved upstairs Talbot yet again transformed the beach area into our reception. His table settings were breathtaking - from his linens to his table, glass and serve ware (my mother in law who had owned a high end home store previously was absolutely delighted)! And the floral arrangements. Sigh and double sigh - super dreamy! Dinner was phenomenal but there were still surprises planned. Between the lit up dance floor, overhead fireworks as Cole and I were finishing up our first dance followed by a song that got everyone on the dance floor - seeing the look on our guests and parents faces was priceless. The best part was we still had a churro cart, a photo booth and a late night taco stand that were huge huge hits. And of course throughout the night Talbot was checking in to see if we had everything we needed and to see how we were doing and feeling and also super attentive to our parents to make sure they were having the best time. The night was magical and spectacular and more than I ever could’ve wished for or dreamed of. Talbot did one last check in and we were set for the night and thanked him for all that he had done for us.

    I’d work with him again in a heartbeat and for any event that we ever plan in Puerto Vallarta or in Nayarit, he will be my first call!

    Talbot is amazing

    We had Talbot plan our wedding at a private residence in Puerto Vallarta for 120 guests. Everything went off without a hitch... total perfection. His recommendations for DJ, floral, and catering were spot on - everything was absolutely perfect! Talbot made the night go super smooth, keeping a pulse on all going on.

    Very Special Moments

    We originally started working with Talbot in 2019 to plan our wedding in Puerto Vallarta. We were finally able to celebrate in October 2021 and Talbot played a major role in making it happen. He guided us through every step of the process and provided excellent guidance and suggestions on how to make our event extra special. We hosted close to 80 people from all around the world including family and friends. Talbot managed a Friday wedding reception and a Saturday celebration. Both events went off perfectly and our guests were delighted and even surprised by the detailed touches that Talbot provided. His taste in design and style was excellent and he knew the various providers and venues in Puerto Vallarta to make things happen seamlessly. He even remembered details that we discussed in our initial meeting - 2 years before the actual event. My husband and I were so very happy working with him and would highly recommend him to anyone considering a destination wedding or celebration in Puerto Vallarta or the surrounding areas. When you go with the best, you get the best. Thank you Talbot!

    The best damn wedding planner

    If I had to choose one thing to describe Talbot, it would be impeccable taste when it comes to design and décor. But there is a lot more. Lets start with the fact that he is incredibly friendly, easy to chat with, attentive and executes all too well. Talbot was ecstatic from the start. He went above and beyond to help us make our day perfect, and incorporated our many ideas into something cohesive and beautiful. We're an extremely busy couple and don't have the time to micro manage all that goes into wedding planning. Talbot made our whole experience incredibly stress free, and more importantly fun. He was never too busy for us when we did have a question or concern and he always made us feel important and heard. We can't thank him enough for everything he did, and I'm happy to be able to have turned what could have been a stressful working relationship, into a friendship! Our wedding turned out better than we could have ever imagined and we're so grateful. Picking Talbot Ross Events was simply the best choice for me and my wife and our black tie beach front wedding!

    Best Wedding Planner Around!

    Everyone needs a Talbot when planning a wedding, and even more when planning a destination wedding. It’s so STRESSFUL planning a wedding, but he did such an amazing job listening to my wants and needs and running with it. He was there for my every question before the wedding and my wedding exceeded our dreams! I feel so blessed to have found him! Thanks Talbot for being amazing at what you do! We love you and our wedding was BEAUTIFUL!

    Beautiful and super easy wedding experience

    Talbot was absolutely wonderful. He handled everything for me. He consulted with me around my taste and created a stunning two day wedding. Talbot seamlessly worked with my venue and created a magical experience for my husband and me. My wedding feedback was "best wedding I've ever been to." I'm going to have him plan my birthday next year... loved him!

    Talbot knows PV Weddings best

    Talbot is well versed in all areas of a PV wedding. He is also very flexible and easy to work with. When our April 2020 wedding was delayed due to COVID, he made adjusting all our plans so simple. Our original vision also really changed after a 1 year delay, and he embraced all of our changes and delivered the most fabulous event beyond our imaginations. He is professional and fun to work with. I would definitely recommend.

    Incredible!

    Talbot did our rehearsal dinner and wedding/ reception. I cannot imagine more perfect table scapes and alter. It was like he read my mind for what I wanted. The florals he did were astonishingly beautiful. He had some gorgeous ceramic plates hand painted for us. He remembered all the little details, and even my small requests that I probably made off hand when we were planning the first wedding that got postponed from May 2020 to February 2021. He did everything with very little direction, which allowed me to enjoy the week with my family. After dealing with postponements, I was very grateful to be able to put the whole thing in Talbots talented and capable hands. I’ve been to many beautiful weddings all over the world, but my own was the most beautiful I’ve ever attended.

    Exceptional!

    Perfection is a hard thing to create but Talbot did it with this party!! Absolutely nothing was left to chance! Every detail was taken care of with professionalism. The thoughtfulness he put into the table decorations, the florals, lighting, and the musicians, even the dance floor was not left out if his meticulous planning! From the start to the finish it was more than we could of imagined, We feel blessed that we had him as our Party Planner.
    My guests are all saying it was the Party of the Century!
    Thanks to Talbot and his amazing talent!!

    Above & Beyond!

    We do not even know where to begin when it comes to reviewing Talbot and his team! We used his full wedding planning services, and he did our Welcome Party, Rehearsal Dinner, and Wedding at the St Regis. We were completely blown away by EVERYTHING he did and thoroughly enjoyed working with him and his team. 

    Talbot made us feel so comfortable from day 1. He is so knowledgable of everything in the area, and he takes so much pride in his work. He was very accommodating of our budget and concerns throughout the entire process, and he made everything so easy for us.

    Talbot has worked with almost every vendor in the area, and has amazing relationships with all of them (which speaks to his character and professionalism!) He was able to help us find the best vendors to work with, and took care of all of the logistics during the events.

    We had a vision, but Talbot made everything better than we could have even imagined. He is very tasteful and knows how to make things look beautiful without going overboard. His florals were out of this world- and everyone at our wedding is still talking about our tables!

    We are so grateful for everything Talbot and his team did to make our wedding weekend perfect. We would not hesitate to work with him again, and look forward to seeing him every time we are back in Puerto Vallarta!

    Talbot Ross makes dreams come true! Not only did he flawlessly execute my vision for my day of the dead welcome party and circus/party wedding, but he went above and beyond and blew myself and our 100+ guests away with his talent and creativity. Everything was absolutely perfect. He is one of a kind and I can't say enough good things about him. Working with Talbot was a five-star experience. He is brilliant, kind, and talented beyond belief!

    Talbot is simply the best!

    Planning a destination wedding for 100+ attendees can be a daunting task, but with the help of Talbot, we were able to find the perfect vendors, rentals and everything in between. From start to finish, Talbot made the planning process as stress-free as possible and executed our vision flawlessly (while working within the constraints of our budget). He is kind, calm extremely responsive and very seasoned. My husband and I would undoubtedly recommend him to any couple looking to plan a wedding in Puerto Vallarta or Punta Mita.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM! He nailed it! :)

    He Planned Our Dream Wedding

    Hiring Talbot as our wedding planner was the single best decision we made during the planning process. From the very first phone conversation Talbot was attentive, honest, and helpful with all aspects of our wedding planning including areas outside his contract. I cannot recommend him enough.

    Perfection!

    Talbot has been a dream since day one. He flawlessly executed my vision for a vibrant bohemian wedding. I received compliments from all of my guests about how beautiful the evening was. From the flowers and tables settings, to the lighting and food, the mariachi, the fireworks- late night churro and taco stands. Everything was perfect. I am So grateful he made my wedding even better than I could have dreamt. 10/10 recommend!

    5-star experience 100% of the time

    Talbot is simply the best. Our wedding exceeded every hope/expectation and we owe that to Talbot. From day one, he was very responsive, informative, honest, and extremely helpful! If I had to describe our planning experience with Talbot in a few words, they would be: smooth, easy, and fun! To be able to describe our wedding planning in those words with the magnitude of events/details/vendors/guests, not to mention planning a wedding in Mexico while living in California--- is quite the feat. Talbot planned and executed two major wedding events for us: Welcome cocktail party on the beach & the Ceremony/Reception. Our events had about 130 people and numerous entertainment and design components. Talbot made planning smooth/easy by streamlining all the vendors and design aspects, as well as getting to know us to understand our style/tastes. All our planning took place through Talbot, so we didn't have to follow-up with multiple parties/vendors. We loved that Talbot works this way - keeps things moving and prevents things from slipping through the cracks. Talbot brought awesome ideas to the table and enhanced the vision of our wedding day. We would share photo ideas over email or describe over the phone and Talbot knew what to do based on that. Talbot was very organized and had everything centralized for us regarding any questions or concerns. Overall, it felt easy because Talbot is a true professional. Talbot planned out everything to finite details and managed the set up and execution of our events flawlessly. The day of our two events, we were blown away seeing it all come together. Everything was beyond what we dreamed of. Talbot also has exceptional taste, so if you are in need of inspiration and design guidance, he's your guy. Also, Talbot is not only a professional but a good person. He is so friendly, kind, trustworthy, and hilarious! He kept the planning experience fun, because it was truly enjoyable and we knew we could trust him to make our important events come alive! Planning a destination wedding is no walk-in-the-park, but it felt so easy with Talbot. Working with Talbot was a five-star experience 100% of the time.

    Fabulous Party

    Talbot planned the perfect birthday party for me and 70 guests. It was held at a beach club and everything Talbot planned was flawless—the decor, the food, the music, the entertainment and the service. My guests described the event as elegant, fun and one of the best, if not the best, birthday party they had ever attended.

    I was introduced to Talbot by a friend of mine in Chicago who is a high-end event planner. We ended up with about 80 for a destination wedding in PVR. My partner and I had high expectations. We flew down to PVR in January 2017 to meet with Talbot and he blew us away - taking us to multiple venues and coordinating vendor meetings. In the 12-months between initial meeting and our wedding, Talbot was always available to us via email/phone at a moments notice. He provided excellent vendor resources and offered his expert opinion when requested. We felt so comfortable in his care that many details of our wedding we left to his discretion, as we knew that he would execute perfectly. He was me personified in many ways. You know that person you meet that you know you don't have to worry about shit? Worry about anything? Know they'll take care of it? It's rare. Well, that's Talbot. He executed on our wedding accordingly. I don't like surprises and I don't like f-ups. If they happen, fix them and don't make me have to deal with them. Be capable and plan. Talbot did that. We had a seamless three days of events, and although Talbot didn't plan everything, he facilitated the connections. Talbot came to our Welcome Reception even though he didn't have to. Then, two days later he literally blew everyone's socks off with the most amazing wedding and reception ever. Unless you've used Talbot to plan your wedding, or been to a Talbot Wedding, it will be your best ever. His attention to detail was flawless. We were so confident in him, which is rare, but he had our trust - on the decor almost completely and it rocked - no one had seen anything like it, then it was one thing after another from painted pineapples to pinata to fireworks that provided us and our guests a truly unique and memorable experience. We wish we could do it all again. Thank you, Talbot. You can't go wrong with him. Wedding or event in PVR or the surrounding area - go get Talbot. There's no one else.

    Talbot is the best! He has great taste and style so you get more than just a wedding planner. He’s built a strong reputation for himself and all the vendors respect him because of it. Everyone is still talking about my beautiful dinner center pieces and everything played out as planned! We had the wedding of our dreams because of Talbot! Even with short notice he got I done!

    Tal executed our wedding vision flawlessly! He is extremely talented and brought a high level of sophistication and expertise to our wedding. Tal is not only professional, but also very warm and gracious. Working with Tal was a true pleasure. He exceeded our expectations, and created an elevated aesthetic that blew everyone away. Tal's team anticipated our needs, and handled everything with grace and with such attention to detail. In addition, all of the vendor's that were recommended by Tal provided exceptional service. I can't thank Tal and his team enough for helping us make our wedding such a special day for us and our guests!!!

    Talbot was the wedding planner I have always dreamed of! We hit it off from the beginning and I knew that I could trust him with my vision from the very start! The wedding turned out even better than I could of imagined with my parents and Talbot even surprising me with fireworks and Cirque de Soleil performers. I wish I could go back and do it all over again, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

    My daughter recently got married in Puerto Vallarta. She had the good fortune to choose Talbot as her wedding planner. Calling Talbot, a "wedding planner" is a little like calling Michelangelo a "ceiling painter". My daughter and I interviewed several wedding planners before finally settling on Talbot. There were about 100 guests and everyone agreed that it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended! Talbot is an artist in every sense of the word, he is absolutely incredible to work with, every detail from flower designs to seating arrangement left no room for improvement! He arranged and choreographed the entire affair like something out of a movie. I can't think of anyone who could be his equal. Thank you very much Talbot for making my daughter's dream wedding.

    It has been a couple of weeks since our wedding and we still feel like are walking on a cloud of happiness. It was undoubtedly the most magical day of our lives and we have Talbot and his team to thank for bringing it to life. With his incredible eye for design and attention to detail, Talbot took our vision for a rustic Mexican wedding and delivered a beautiful event that everyone in attendance has described as simply unforgettable. From the officiant selection to the food and decor, every detail of the celebration was expertly coordinated by Talbot and the day went by without a glitch. Planning a destination wedding was no easy feat but working with Talbot and his incredible team made it a lot easier and stress-free. Thank you Talbot!

    We contacted Talbot after reviewing his website, and within minutes of talking to him, we knew he would be a great fit for us. We were locked in on a date and only had 5 months to work with. In that short amount of time, Talbot put together an EXTRAORDINARY wedding weekend! Yes, four days of events, not just a wedding ceremony. Talbot has EXTENSIVE knowledge of the area and vendors, and has cultivated great relationships with them all. Most importantly however, Talbot knows the intricacies of operating in Mexico and bringing things to full fruition. ALL of his recommendations were top notch. After a few conversations with him, Talbot quickly understood our style and the kind of wedding and decor we wanted. He also was able to take our vision and help us imagine components we would have never thought of on our own. Fire dancers, cigar rollers, and even a churro cart, to name a few. My husband and I are both tough critics, and we demand excellence--Talbot exceeded any and all of our already high expectations. Four days of events, executed seamlessly. Talbot's calmness and control over every situation, was a relief and truly allowed us to absorb every second of our wedding without ever having to worry. Perhaps the biggest evidence (and reward) of Talbot's diligence was the effusive praise we received from our guests. Many of them telling us our wedding was literally the best wedding they had ever attended in their entire lives. Our dream wedding became a reality, and we owe so much of that to Talbot. It was PERFECT. If you are planning a wedding in Puerto Vallarta or the surrounding region, and Talbot is available, you would be a fool not to book him immediately!

    I don’t know where to begin- Talbot Ross Events planned the most perfect night (and weekend) of our entire life. Not only does he plan a fabulous party, but he is also an exceptional person to work with. Our rehearsal dinner and wedding reception were both show stoppers... every single little detail was PERFECT. Talbot made the planning process fun and stress free. My husband and I live in the US so we were not able to do planning in person.... yet Talbot was still incredibly attentive. He sent us pictures now of his ideas often and remained in constant communication in regards to our vision and his plans. I can’t recommend Talbot Ross Events enough. He is truly the best wedding planner ever... we feel so lucky to now call him a lifetime friend.

    Most people come for a destination wedding or event. I have the good fortune to live in Vallarta half of the year so when I was interviewing for a planner/designer to produce my extravagant vow renewal / birthday celebration I was able to do my own research for the perfect planner locally. Unlike most people I am “old school” I tend not to put much stock in internet reviews, finding them at times overly inflated or overly negative. Luckily for me I have lived here a long time and know many business people in town. When I was considering Talbot Ross as one of the possible planners for my party I was able to speak to many people here in Vallarta to check his credentials/abilities with the locals. The overwhelming response I was getting was that he was very good to work with, honest, very creative, straight forward and no nonsense. Delivers what was promised. We would be inviting people I have know over a lifetime from several different countries and I wanted my guest to have an experience they would never forget. I can tell you that was exactly what it was. He delivered everything I could have wanted and more. The party was a very detailed event with a lot of elements and I could not have been happier. The floral was out of this world and to be honest, looked like twice the budget I gave him. The attention to detail and the one of kind ideas he came up with blew me away. He and his staff were so professional and had a calming effect on me that I so needed the day of the big event. My husband and I were able to show up and enjoy knowing all was taken care of and did we have a good time! I will never forget my special day and I am extremely grateful to Talbot Ross Events for all they did. I have an evening of memories that will last a lifetime. THE BEST!"

    Talbot was so great to work with. He created our daughter's dream wedding, from flower petals on the sand, to the fireworks after their first dance, the whole evening was magical. Spanish guitar, mariachis, and DJ...wonderful food,
    beautiful mirror topped tables aglow with candles and lanterns.
    As a professional event producer in Texas for over 26 years, this wasn't my 1st rodeo !!!! I set a very high bar for Talbot, and he met my expectations. He used nothing but the best vendors...who all were great to work with !
    When we asked Kimberly was this night what she had dreamed of forever......her answer was "it was perfect" !
    You can trust that Talbot will give you a beautiful event, with no worries that come with long distance planning involved with a destination wedding.

    My husband and I just finished our destination wedding in Puerto Vallarta and it was beyond our greatest expectations. We found Talbot about a year ago searching for wedding planners online who have experience supporting same sex weddings in Vallarta. We met Talbot in his office downtown about a year before our wedding when we were down there deciding on a villa to hold the wedding. We were looking for someone who was a good designer (I am not) who also had the expertise and connections to pull together decor, DJ, and catering, and Talbot checked all those boxes. Since we lived in Washington D.C, we worked together over the coming months over phone and email and Talbot was responsive. Whenever a topic was easier to discuss over the phone, we would plan a time and catch up. Anyways, I guess as can be expected it all comes down to the wedding weekend. You put all your trust and vision in someone and just hope for the best. Well, this is where Talbot exceeded all expectations. He came to the villa where we were both staying at and holding the wedding a day before to check in, walk through the space and answer any questions. His operations day off were flawless. He coordinated the entire set up as we were getting married at a villa and bringing everything in (chairs, seating, two DJ booths, lighting, etc.). When my husband and I were getting ready he would check in with us every 15 minutes with such a calming and positive manner. He now felt like a friend there for me to calm my nerves before the ceremony started. Needless to say, everything from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to speeches, dinner, dancing, was executed flawlessly. Many guests have said it was the best wedding they ever attended. (Not the goal of the wedding, but great to hear.) I can't imagine doing it without Talbot.

    My advise - trust in him and the process, it will all work out! Also, look into Villa Estrella Mar if you are undecided on a venue. It is one of a kind.

    Talbot was great to work with! He did a great job of listening to the type of experience we wanted to create and then made it happen. He was always available for a conference call and even helped us plan events outside of the wedding itself. The day of the wedding went perfectly - his team was so professional and was able to create a beautiful experience for both us and our guests. Couldn't have asked for a better planner!

    Talbot is top notch. We could not have asked for a better experience in planning our wedding. We connected with Talbot last summer after reading all of his wonderful reviews on this website and others. After one phone conversation, we knew there was no point in speaking with anyone else. We worked with Talbot without ever setting foot in Puerto Vallarta during the planning process (although we know the city well). We were not super detail focused, but just had a sense for what we wanted the overall feel to be. We sent Talbot some shots from Pinterest and he truly created the most beautiful and special wedding we could have imagined. Every detail was very thoughtful and very much in our style. Not only did he plan the event itself, but he also connected us with a nearby hotel for our guests, organized a family dinner, planned a fun beachfront cocktail party, and put together a fabulous farewell brunch! Talbot seems to know everyone in Puerto Vallarta, which makes it so easy to get things done.

    Our guests were blown away by the experience and many of them commented that it was hands down the best wedding they had ever been to. Many of our married friends even commented that they were glad they were already married because Talbot had raised the bar so high. We cannot name one thing that was not great...food was awesome, venue was amazing, DJ did a great job, and the service was top notch! Our only regret is that the weekend had to end.

    We cannot recommend Talbot highly enough!

    If you go with Talbot Ross Turner Events you won't be sorry. His access to resources when planning your wedding or event is unparalleled. We looked at another wedding planner first and tried to be objective. Going with Talbot Ross Turner was a no brainer. He's got style, he knows how to make your event beautiful and he works directly with you the whole way. It was a joy working with him and our wedding is still being talked about by our friends. Really a collaborative kind of guy with knowledge of destination weddings and events to ease your mind about planning from a far. Thanks again Tab! John & Nirm married 01.07.17!

    We hosted our wedding at Grand Fiesta Americana Puerto Vallarta Adults Only and were connected with Talbot through the hotel's wedding coordinator. After seeing some of his work on Facebook, I knew that we needed to find a way to work with him. Little did I know, he would be the saving grace throughout the entire planning process. He responded to every email in a very timely manner, attended to every detail and small request, tried to get a feel for our personalities so he could tailor style to them, and the list goes on. Not only did he create our dream rehearsal dinner and wedding, but working with him was wonderful as well. This may sound corny, but as thrilled as I was to be done with wedding planning, I was sad to be done working with Talbot. He made the entire experience enjoyable and as stress-free as is possible with planning a wedding. I would highly recommend him to everyone for planning any event!

    Worked with Tab on our wedding and it was an absolute pleasure. We just had our wedding on 10/15/16 in puerto Vallarta. Me and my bride are from Los Angeles and we were very stressed out about having a destination wedding and not being able to help plan in person. We only made one trip to Vallarta and met Tab and from then on he took care of everything. He had great recommendations for flowers, food, DJ, decorations, activities for our guests. On he day of our wedding we were blown away with how it all came together. We had 80 guests and all of them said the same thing. It was the best wedding they have ever gone to and it looked so classy. I highly recommend using Tab if you want to pull of your dream wedding.

    After our first phone conversation with Talbot Ross, my now wife and I stopped our wedding planner search. Talbot's confident and friendly approach instantly put us at ease. Over the course of the year, the three of us exchanged countless emails and phone calls. Talbot helped us to craft our perfect wedding, all while mirroring back personalized ideas that took our wedding to a level beyond our wildest dreams. A couple months into planning, we traveled to Puerto Vallarta for a site visit. Not only did we meet our wedding planner on that trip, we made a lifelong friend. Talbot is more than a guy cramming his calendar with as many weddings and events as he can. Talbot clearly cares about his couples' experience. He invested himself in us and our special day. He proved to us that we could trust his local relationships, expertise and advice. At times, I was a demanding groom, and Talbot kept up with me. He reassured us in times of doubt. We never felt alone when facing difficult decisions and uncertainty. The end result was the greatest day of our lives. Talbot's experience shown through as he dealt with every issue that arose while keeping the wedding day moving forward; allowing us to focus on the unbelievable feeling of love that filled the evening. Talbot set the stage, created the space, and facilitated something so special that words alone don't do it justice. My wife and my recommendation of Talbot Ross goes beyond a job well done. He isn't the wedding planner you work with to get a great wedding; Talbot is the wedding planner you partner with to live out something that will remain a part of you, and a part of the people you most love, for the rest of your lives.

    When I choose Talbott Ross to do my wedding I knew I was dealing with a professional. Not only was he professional, he was kind and so very helpful. I don't think anyone could have pulled off a gorgeous wedding like he did and leave me stress free and one happy bride! The whole event went perfectly. Hands down the best wedding and events planner!

    When my daughter suggested that we hire a wedding planner for her Puerto Vallarta wedding, I thought it was unnecessary. I was so wrong because Talbot Ross and his amazing team provided invaluable services that made the wedding fabulous. First he had imagination and inspiration to see what could be done at the venue (which was your average hotel box of a ballroom.) The flowers, the table décor, lighting and dance floor were over the top. However, they were not unduly expensive. Many of the decorations were available to us at minimum cost due to the fact that Talbot had a décor rental company. Second, it was easy to talk about money with Talbot. We received a reasonable budget before the wedding which was accurate after the wedding. In other words, there were no surprises. Finally, Talbot and his team were very easy to work with, prompt, industrious and thorough. I tend to be critical in my reviews but I cannot be critical of Talbot Ross Weddings and Events. Well Done!!!!

    Im an event designer from Chicago and I recently had the opportunity to work with Talbot on a friend's beautiful beach wedding. Because I flew in early to design the flowers, I was able to work closely with him to achieve the perfect design. The only problem collaborating with an amazing fun professional like Talbot is that everyone else just seem so average. Cheers

    I decide to work with Talbot because he was the first wedding planner I spoke to who was welcoming about my colourful (and slightly outside the box) wedding design ideas. Not only was he welcoming about the ideas but he went above and beyond to make them a reality. I admit that I was not as concerned about the specific details as many other brides might be but I always had full confidence that Talbot shared my vision and was working hard to deliver on those details. In particular, his idea to create a colourful wall of ribbons flanked with large agave plants was better than I could have imagined as a backdrop for the ceremony.

    Other things Talbot did that went above and beyond include negotiating deals with vendors for the perfect wood tables and meeting with our wedding band (Los Bambinos) to ensure they would be a good fit for the event.

    I definitely recommend Talbot to anyone who is looking for an extra punch of creativity for their wedding.

    We cannot say enough wonderful positive things about Talbot. From our first phone call, he assured us that not only our vision would be fulfilled, but he would be there every single step of the way, be it for a silly question, a concern, or for a changes to our event. We live in Texas, and Talbot was our eyes and ears in Puerto Vallarta. From checking in on our venue multiple times, to ensuring that all vendors were kept in line, Talbot did it all. We had a number of phone calls with Talbot throughout the process, we constantly shared ideas, and Talbot mocked up flowers, and table settings for us to approve so that everything met our vision. To highlight his attention to detail, Talbot went as far as to inspect the beach where our ceremony was to be held, told us that the ocean was higher than normal and we may have less beach to work with. This enabled us to prepare things slightly differently so that our wedding went off without a hitch. In the end, the wedding was spectacular. Talbot arraigned perfect flowers, perfect table settings, music, candles and lighting, and even helped us find an amazing baker to make us the cake of our dreams. I am not sure what we would have done without Talbot; we are certain that our wedding would not have been half the success it was if it wasn't for him. We are so thankful for his tireless work, his professionalism, and his friendship in making this event something that neither of us will ever forget.

    I'm from Oklahoma and I was extremely anxious about having a wedding in Puerto Vallarta when I knew I wouldn't be traveling there before the wedding. Talbot was wonderful to work with and the wedding turned out more beautiful than I imagined. He is extremely sweet and was there to oversee the entire set up for the ceremony. I would recommend him to anyone for any occasion no matter how big or small.

    On the advise of a friend of mine in Hollywood who had recently seen Talbots work in Puerto Vallarta, I hired Talbot Ross Events to to produce my birthday party at the last minute on Christmas Eve. I had some last minute downtime from my show Empire and at the last minute decided to spend the holidays in Vallarta. Talbot had 3 days to put my birthday party together (on Christmas Eve) and I was blown away. It would not surprise me at all the see him in Hollywood one day designing a movie set. This guy has that certain something as we say in the business. I would take advantage of his creativity while you still can. Incredible!

    I absolutely loved working with Talbot Ross events for our October wedding in Puerto Vallarta. He completely captured my vision for our day and made the whole process extremely smooth and fun. Planning a destination wedding from afar could potentially be stressful and frustrating but Tab had access and relationships to all the vendors needed. He secured our caterers, rentals, florist and videographer. I was given options and his recommendations and outside of that could take those logistics off my to do list as he had them completely covered. I chose to secure my own photographer and DJ and he was able to jump in and take over communicating to those outside vendors as well where needed.

    What was most impressive is his ability to react quickly to any potential issues. In our case, we literally had a hurricane coming our way and Tab was never flustered. He updated me on its status on an as needed basis and had a contingency plan in place.

    Day of the wedding he executed flawlessly. Despite difficult circumstances behind the scenes due to the storm, he remained calm, in control and didn't have me worried for a moment.

    Our wedding remained on budget and encompassed everything we wanted. On top of that, Tab was truly a joy to work with and have around! He went above and beyond to make sure we had the dream wedding.

    I would highly recommend Talbot Ross events.

    While speaking to Tal, I discussed my decor budget and told him that I didn’t want to spend, nor could I afford a penny more than the amount discussed. I also made it clear that I didn’t want any last minute surprises of additional cost. Tal agreed to the decor budget, never asked for an extra penny and to be honest he delivered way above expectations. The day of my wedding the venue looked like a dream, I am not exaggerating; everything was exactly what we had discussed and even better. The thing with Tal is that he is a perfectionist and he is also an incredibly caring human being. You can tell from the minute that you speak to him that he is incredibly proud and passionate for what he does and he will go above and beyond for his clients. To be honest, during the planning process I thought it was all sounding too good to be true; that he might have been a great sales person, but this is not the case, his delivery is exceptional.
    I was one of those very controlling brides that wanted everything to be perfect so I would call him all the time, and he picked up every time. Looking back and after getting the perfect decor for my wedding, I could have saved myself hours of calls and worrying because I was in exceptional hands. To any bride out there looking for a decorator or a full-on event planner, I promise you that Tal is the one and only to call!
    When I hired Tal we had discussed that he would decorate the church, the reception venue (including flowers, head table, chandeliers, place settings, table numbers, etc), bouquets and boutonnieres. However, as the planning progressed, I asked him for help to find churros and Mariachi for the event. He didn’t ask for a referral fee, he just found me the best ones in Puerto Vallarta and fully handled all the coordination, helping me focus on other matters.
    Tal is the definition of chic and elegance. I truly love this man and this review does not do him justice.

    My wife and I got married in Puerto Vallarta Mexico on October 31, 2014 and used Talbott Ross as our wedding planner. We obviously had a lot of anxiety trying to plan a destination wedding since we were so far away. However Tab put us at ease right from the start. He was very confident that he would be able to put together a dream wedding for us and he delivered. He was very accessible (we spoke every Sunday ), had great suggestions, and most importantly LISTENED to our ideas and what we were looking for in our wedding. His recommendation for caterers, entertainment, location, flowers, photographer, and design were perfect.
    The day of the wedding, Tab was hard at work starting at 8:00 A.M. making sure everything was set up properly and good to go. He managed the caterers, music, set up of villa, florists, bartenders, and the overall flow of the wedding so we didn’t have one thing to worry about except having fun. He was hard at work until early the next morning—he did all of this so my wife and I were able to have our dream wedding. We are very grateful for Talbott Ross and his dedication as a wedding planner and a truly good guy.

    As the Concierge for several Villas in Puerto Vallarta, I find that using Talbot Ross Weddings and Events has allowed me to ensure my guests receive the finest available wedding planning and event services in Vallarta. With a very busy schedule, I make one call to Talbot. I know that the entire wedding/ event will be planned professionally, on time and in budget. With excellent coordination between the guests and myself Talbot eliminates the stressors for all involved. I use Talbot Ross Wedding and Events exclusively and have been more than satisfied with all the services provided
