Where do we start?! Barb and Manuel went above and beyond for our wedding in Akumal! It was so magical how everything turned out. We are so happy we found them on trip advisor, we wouldn't be able to make this happen! The vendors they work with goes above and beyond too. Barb and Manuel really do care and wants to make our dream wedding come true! Aside from the wedding, they provide great suggestions for activities after/before the wedding. It didn't stop at the wedding, they provide assistance with other things such as favorite restaurants, activities and advice on how to get around! They are really good at what they do. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We can't wait to see the photos!

Working with Barb was such a fun experience. She's a wonderful person to talk with, and she's very knowledgeable about all the local vendors and options to make your day special. I truly felt that her and her team took our special day to heart, and made sure that we had everything we could possibly want for a magical wedding! She runs a small family operation that made the whole experience feel much more personal. And when the day of the event arrived, I had nothing to worry about, Barb and her team handled everything seamlessly! I had no stress and wasn't even aware of all the action going on behind the scenes to make it all happen. I wouldn't look any further for a wedding planner. Honestly, this experience was highly personalized to us and our needs. She works hard to fit everything in your budget, and she just gets it done! We loved working with her and all her vendors, our day could not have been more perfect!

We could not have pulled off our wedding had it not been for Barb and Manuel. We had never been to the Riviera Maya. We were on a fairly tight budget and she helped us stay within it by suggesting a location and venues we would have never found on our own. We were able to hire quality vendors as well as splurge on some extras such as a salsa teacher and a great DJ. We reached Barb through a recommendation online 10 months ago. We did not meet in person until a few days before the wedding. During these ten months she spent countless hours on the phone with us and over email. Always patient, honest, PROMPT! We knew she was someone special within days of speaking. We could tell she truly enjoys what she does. Her enthusiasm and reliability translated into a relaxing wedding week for our families with a welcome event for which she and Manuel ordered a delicious Mayan meal for our guests. The wedding day was more than we could have hoped for. We can't wait to see our photos from the wedding and our trash the dress session.

Barb and Manuel were an AMAZING help with our dream vacation! We wanted to go to Mexico with our 11 year old daughter without going to an all-inclusive resort. Barb was so generous answering my many, many, many questions. Thank you Barb!! From the perfect places to stay, what to see, which restaurants to go to and what was great on the menu to the car rental, they were amazing!!! Manuel called the car rental to make sure all was well and again on the day of our arrival, just to make sure all was arranged and ready, which was such a comfort. Renting a car can be stressful, but not with his help! Thank you Manuel!!!We went first to Tulum, then Akumal and ended in Valladolid. We didn't take any tours, we did it all on our own thanks to all of the information and help they provided! I speak very minimal Spanish, and my husband hardly any, and we had no issues. We can't wait to go back. We had a trip of a lifetime! The people are lovely, the food incredible, the beaches glorious and the ruins and jungle were magical. The only problem was, we only stayed for 8 days! It should have been at least 10 but better yet 12! Thank you so much you two!!! Lots of love from Colorado! Sincerely,Ann Brumby

Barb and Manuel are the beyond amazing. They practically can anticipate the best shots, any and all details that you could/would/and might not even think of, and they're just all around caring people. You are in the best hands when you choose them to plan your event and/or do the photography. I loved working with them, and they and their team are the main reason our wedding was the best I've ever been too, hands down!
