ok. so for my wedding day....it was PERFECT!!! The flowers were just what I asked for (altho in retrospect, I think tropical flowers with no specific color might of also been a good choice) The food from the hotel was delicious, and most importantly......you got the ambiance with the lighting and decorating details just right! I think that was most impressive. For the ceremony AND the reception. I could not have done that and you got every single thing right there! PLUS, you worked with my budget! Amazing! Some people laughed at my budget and told me it couldn't be done. You did it. You gave enough options so that it was possible.....and the kicker.....it didn't LOOK budget at all!!!! I can't say enough of how impressed I was.....and not just me. My friends and family also commented without being prompted. Wendy told me a few times how impressed she was with you.....and I think she is a tough one to impress! ;-)

You also took care of any bumps in the road quickly and did not give me any stress. Also, worked with me in the bar areas. Letting me know when we were out and exchanging white for red wine. great! My only regret is that I should have had you there on Friday for the rehersal dinner. It would of gone a lot smoother.....but I did have to keep my budget in mind as we had already gone over and I didn't want you to work for a price that is not fair. oh well!

Also the contractors that you reccomened were perfect also. I loooooooved Carlos and Pamela! Turned out to be a life saver too when the girls were running late....it was such a relief to know that the boys had started with photos! wow! I haven't seen my photos yet, but I know they are going to be beautiful. The guitar trio was even better than I envisioned also:-) and of course having it at Casa Conde was beautful choice as well.

The only thing I would say that could of been improved was the hotel bar.....which you have no control of. There was some difficulties there with the staff all week. (and my freineds drink a lot!;-)) They never had change if you just wanted to order one drink? Also, the night of the wedding there was confusion that you solved as well. The orginization in that department could be better. But, Daneil worked with me and my small budget for the rehersal dinner and the reception. That was very much appreciated!

Overall, your services can't be beat. You were always in quick contact if I had any questions and made the process of decision making easy! (I hate making decisions! So many choices!) My wedding day could not of gone ANY better. It was more and better than I imagined!

THANK YOU!!!!

Chrissy & Bruno Lucidarme.

Wedding Olshansky Kadish  

May 11, 2008
Manuel Antonio

Organizing the wedding of Marina and Aram was an enjoyable experience! Meeting the many details that a traditional Jewish wedding involved and being able to please both groom and bride’s preferences was a challenge... After many emails and phone calls, we managed to put together a wonderful event, and the day they arrived to Costa Rica and I met them at my office, I could see how nice energy they and their family had. I was very impressed by the wonderful work of art; Marina’s mother did with the huppa, lots of hours of love and dedication into it.

.

“Dear Sylvia, Marina and I wanted to write a letter of thanks and recommendation for you and your staff. We couldn't have asked for a better, more detailed oriented and organized wedding planner than yourself. Everything exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family still comment about what a great job you did. I don't think people expected a Costa Rican destination wedding could be so successful. ”

Fisher-Lawrence Wedding
March 22, 2008  Playa Hermosa, Guanacaste

This wonderful couple enjoyed a beautiful and romantic ceremony with the sunset behind them with a small family & friends group. Was a challenge for us designing the modern concept they wanted, but we got an excellent result. The best moment was the breathtaking sunset right after the bride and groom said their vows and we loved to work with such an easygoing couple.

“Thank you so much! We just got back Saturday and I am just now back on email. Everything was WONDERFUL and I can't thank you and Sylvia enough!. Thanks again”

Haddock-Patterson Wedding  

April 02, 2008 Villa Caletas, Puntarenas

The elegance of Villa Caletas combine with beautiful Irish and Scotland people allows us to make a unique wedding for Alan & Jill. It was a pleasure for us working for such a wonderful family where the good humour was present all the time, since the organization of the wedding until the speeches of the Bride's father and the best man that gave a very funny but at the same time emotive touch to the celebration.

.

“It was a great comfort to us to have Sylvia and her staff on hand during our special day. She made herself available to everyone who needed her help and was usually able to calm the most anxious family members with a reassuring “that’s been taken care of” or “I will tend to that immediately” and always did”

Esta boda se realizo en una villa privada en Manuel Antonio llamada Casa Elsa. A pesar de solo contar con 10 inviatdos fue una boda intima y especial entre amigos. La ceremonia se realizo en la playa y la recepcion en la Villa. Tanto los novios como los invitados pasaron un momento inolvidable e el momento mas gracioso de la noche fue cuando los hombres se metieron a la piscina con todo y ropa.

El clima estuvo perfecto y la noche fue espectacular, dejando momentos memorable en la pareja y los invitados.

“Muchas gracias por toda la ayuda que nos dieron tu y Silvia y por hacer nuestro dia tan especial y memorable”

Después de compartir con Nela una organización de tres meses, con muchos cambios y retos satisfactorios, logramos una boda de ensueño que nos permitió combinar tradiciones judías con católicas, obteniendo una ceremonia emotiva y especial para ambas familias. Tras el nerviosismo por las fuertes lluvias durante toda la semana, el día de la boda fue diferente y el clima nos permitió disfrutar un atardecer único y una noche llena de estrellas. La alegría de Nela y su gran amor por Doug facilito para tener una boda llena de alegría celebrando la unión de dos almas gemelas.

Venard-Ryberg Wedding

June 3, 2008  Hotel Grand Papagayo, Guanacaste

Was a pleasure for us working with such a beautiful couple and enjoy just with the two of them this special day. Besides the bad weather we had that day, we never lost the perspective of the big event and we converted a rustic hut in a very romantic ceremony place full with rose petals, colorful flowers and the sound of the rain as company.

“Thank you for all that you did. Things are great with us, although we do not have the tropical feel or view of Costa Rica. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much”

Barrow-Turner Wedding

June 7, 2008 Playa Dominical

 

Playa Ventanas is a unique beach but was at the same time a challenge for us setting up for the ceremony because there’s no easy access, but we wanted to go one mile ahead and do our best for Warren & Bree and give them an unforgettable wedding.

The water coming throw the rock window was the perfect scenery for all the guests and help with the acoustic of the emotive music of a solo guitar player. The sympathy and sweetest of all the guests was one of the most amazing regards me have ever had.

Boda Wagner-Velasquez

5 de Julio, 2008 Los Sueños Marriott, Herradura

 

Después de tres meses de organización de la mano con la mama de la novia, pudimos disfrutar de la alegría que Karla y Julián sentían el día de su boda. Alegría que se contagio al resto de invitados, obteniendo así una boda alegre y llena de sorpresas para ambas familias.

A pesar de adversidades de la vida, nos encanto poder darles un poco de alegría durante una noche inolvidable para el resto de sus vidas, y definitivamente, fue un placer trabajar con tan linda familia y definitivamente volveríamos a pasar los mismos contratiempos y presuras para lograr un día tan especial.

 

Le queria agradecer por todo el esfuerzo y el trabajo que dedico en la boda. Julian y yo quedamos muy satisfechos y felices de que todo salio excelente. La pasamos super bien y al parecer la gente tambien. De nuevo, muchas gracias y me imagino que oiremos de usted en un tiempo; que todavia falta una hermana.

Cuidese mucho y le deseo lo mejor.
