Vitaly and I wanted to thank you again for all your hard work and dedication.  We've shown the video quite a few times and everyone is always impressed with how beautiful the location is, how vivid the flower arrangements are and how smoothly everything was conducted. 

I am really grateful for your patience and your insistance on allowing us to have the day of our dreams.  I get a pretty good chuckle when I think about asking you to add the horse only 24 hours before the wedding.  You never broke your smile :-)  That was a truly memorable addition.
     
Take care and best wishes,
Jennifer and Vitaly Goltsberg USA

As we had both been married before and neither of us was keen on a large ceremony we decided to elope to St. Lucia taking with us only our three sons. We booked our flights and villa via the Internet and were planning on organising the wedding from our PC in the UK . However, it soon became apparent that this was an awesome task. Although we were aware that companies existed who would arrange weddings for you we did not think that they would be interested in the low-key affair that we wanted and, if they did take us on, would probably not give us as much attention as they would to a big-budget production. How wrong we were!

Having looked at a few options on the Internet we liked the look of the Awesome Caribbean Weddings website and were particularly taken with the fact that they “only did one wedding a day”. We filled in the enquiry form and sent it off. At first we were somewhat overcome with the choices on offer but the descriptions of the available venues were excellent and we soon opted for the beach wedding. Despite this being the least expensive option their attention to detail was faultless. We are somewhat unconventional people and we must have had sixteen exchanges of emails regarding the flowers alone. The whole process was made simple and straightforward with all the options presented clearly and succinctly allowing us to make informed decisions we were instantly happy with.

The result of this attention to detail was that we didn't need to worry about any arrangements and could concentrate on enjoying our vacation right up to the afternoon of the wedding day. The event itself was totally stress free, ran smoothly and, above all, was thoroughly enjoyable. The Awesome Caribbean wedding team was attentive but discreet and kept our glasses full of Champagne throughout the photographs. They even had cool towels on hand for the occasional sweaty brow. The location, an idyllic sandy beach on Pigeon Island, was perfect. The Wedding Officer was friendly, witty and charming and the mood of the occasion was set perfectly by the guitarist, who played our favourite pieces of classical and Spanish music. We also now have over a hundred digital photographs to remind us of just how perfect our wedding was. Oh, and by the way, the flowers were exactly what we wanted!

We were undecided at first about having the ceremony filmed. We have both sat through other peoples wedding videos, stifling our yawns, and cringing at the cheesiness of the footage on the screen. However, as we were leaving most of our family and all of our friends behind in the UK we felt it was only fair to take them all back a record of the event. This was the single best decision we made. From the first run-through in our villa just three days after the wedding, we were blown away. The videographer, who had worked through the night to get the film ready before we flew home, said that he had never seen the bridegroom cry at the preview before! He has somehow managed to take two very ordinary people and turn them into film stars. We have since shown the DVD to our family and friends and they too have been overwhelmed. One friend commented that it was like watching a music video and, considering that we gave him less than 24 hours notice of one of our choices of music, the merging of images to lyrics of two of our favourite songs still brings lumps to our throats, even after countless viewings.

Despite us opting for a low-key and inexpensive wedding no corners were cut. We were treated to first class service with a personal touch.

“Truly it was the best week of our lives. First, because we both married the love of our lives, second because we shared it with the people that mean the most to us in the world, and third because our extraordinary expectations for the days surrounding our wedding were met and then far surpassed…” See below for more about the whole week of events and wedding...

We want to thank Awesome Caribbean Weddings for working diligently over the course of 10 months to make our wildest wedding fantasies a reality.   Each event, which included a “Welcome to the Island BBQ”, a catamaran trip to Soufriere for a rainforest hike and swim in a waterfall, a 5-star gourmet Asian-fusion rehearsal dinner, an unspeakably amazing wedding celebration and a farewell brunch, were sensationally planned.  

The mood was set by the off the beaten path accommodations. Sunsets at the villa and breakfast each morning in the gazebo overlooking the ocean melted away our worldly stresses and induced the most blissful mindset. Each of our guests thoroughly enjoyed the small villa-style hotels in which they stayed.

The welcome BBQ was a brilliant way to kick-off the festivities (thank you!).   Andy, our delightful host, threw quite a party. We will never forget the outrageous spread or his superlative hospitality.

Friday, our trip to the rainforest, was spectacular as well. Laying on the nets on the front of the catamaran cruising down the western coast of the island to Soufriere was a highlight of the trip. When the safari jeeps picked us up at the bay the group was energized. Leo, one of our guides, was extremely knowledgeable on the rainforest ecosystem, making the hike an educational experience as well as a fantastic adventure. The waterfall and swimming hole were the glorious climax of a fantastic hike.

The rehearsal dinner over looking the beach was elegant, the service was phenomenal and, as Ginger's father said, it was “some of the best food I've ever had.”   Thank you also for solving our “to sushi or not to sushi” crisis. Your compromise was brilliant. You are exceptionally skilled in making everything right.

As for the ceremony itself, fairy tales do come true! Every detail was perfect. All of the hard work we put into it all came together in a magical wedding celebration at the Estate House. We had some very specific ideas about the things we wanted, like bohemian candles and Blue Label Scotch. Thank you for ensuring that the reality matched our fantasy. The only limit was our imaginations. The flowers and decorations were gorgeous and we absolutely loved all of the music. Lawrence did such a great job with the songs. His voice is so sweet and romantic. And the band . . . they were so much fun. Some of our most memorable moments occurred on the dance floor.

We floated through the Sunday morning brunch as overwhelmed newlyweds.   The restaurant continued the theme of the weekend . . . excellent food, drink and company.

It's important for brides-to-be to know how enjoyable you made the planning. There are many things about getting married that can be completely overwhelming and stressful and you guys never added stress or anxiety to Ginger's day. She would turn our computer on and look forward to your e-mails, which included all kinds of information, pictures, options, etc. You solved problems, made everyone happy and made our wedding dreams come true.

We just finished watching the video . . . Wow! He did such a great job.   And the photos were excellent too.   The hardest thing is going to be to choose the pictures for the album. There are too many good ones.

In sum, we want to send our most sincere thanks for making the best week of our lives possible. We also want to make it clear that we would encourage you to have any couples making a decision about Awesome Caribbean Weddings to contact us to discuss our experience. We are so happy to have chosen you to plan our wedding, and we're proud to enjoy you now as friends as well.   Well . . . goodbye for the time being. Our parents are already planning a reunion, so we'll see you soon.

Mr. and Mrs Frank Brown, New York, USA

From the moment we first made contact on the web it was clear we were
dealing with a highly proffesional organisation. E-mails were promptly answered and every little question answered. All the things we didn't think of, Awesome Caribbean Weddings did. E-mail by e-mail, we worked together to put together a dream wedding. That could never have happened without the incredibly thoughtful and enthusiastic help we received. We left for St Lucia with not a care in the world, confident that the day would go without a problem, and that's exactly how it turned out. The whole wedding, from pickup at the hotel, to the event itself to delivery to our reception, went like clockwork. The beach wedding is highly recommended, as is Froggie Jacks (now Jacques tropical bistro) for a great meal and atmosphere. We would also like to say that the people of St Lucia are an amazing bunch, clearly immensely proud of their beautiful little nation and incredibly friendly and welcoming. What an amazing day!

John, Juliet and Holly Gosling  UK

We want you to know how grateful we all were for all your hard work with our wedding. We have watched and showed the video so many times and it reminds me of just how perfect and wonderful you made the day for us. Everything came together exactly how we dreamed which is all thanks to the hard work you put in.

The steel band were superb and i hope that they are able to play those wonderful songs for other couples as well.

The videographer is simply unbelievable and his video captured every heartfelt moment and detail of our day. He really is gifted and even my uncle who has been a cameraman at ITV for over 20 years was very impressed.

Gosh I just dont really know how to thankyou you enough for all your help but I would like you to know that you made our wonderful day trouble free and picture perfect for us, one that we will always treasure.

Hope to see you again when we return to St Lucia.

Kindest regards

Charlotte and Hilal Khalfan

We would like to thank Awesome Caribbean Weddings for making our wedding day such an unbelievably beautiful experience.  Awesome Caribbean Weddings truly lives up to its name.  Everyone was so professional.  The photographer and videographer did phenomenal jobs.  The tropical garden was the perfect setting for our wedding.  The flowers were breathtaking.  We truly felt like we were in paradise. You were right on point with my bouquet.  It was even more beautiful than the picture I sent to you.  Thanks for being such an excellent wedding planner!  We would highly recommend ACW to anyone looking to get married in exotic, magical, beautiful St. Lucia.

Mr. and Mrs. Tyson Smith, Chicago, IL USA

Bryan and I would like to express to you, again, how pleased we were with your services for our wedding at the Catholic Chapel in St. Lucia .

In planning a destination wedding, our goal was to reduce our stress as much as possible and create a unique experience for ourselves and our guests. As a Catholic, it was important to me not only to have a church wedding, but also to have a full service wedding planner who would act as a liaison to the church and help handle the additional paperwork and other requirements associated with coordinating a Catholic wedding in a foreign country. ACW did a phenomenal job in all respects.

Concerning the other wedding details, we believe ACW provided us the best the island had to offer. The Chapel is a lovely setting and Father Goodman was just wonderful. Our flowers, music, photos and video exceeded our expectations. The catamaran sunset cruise was a highlight for our guests. We adored our cab driver, who was available to our entire party throughout our stay. Our families and friends were very complimentary of our wedding ceremony and festivities and their experiences vacationing in St. Lucia .

Thank you, again, ACW, for making our dream Caribbean wedding a reality!

Sincerely,

Amy and Bryan Smith, Texas USA

Over six months later, Dave and I are still pinching ourselves about how perfect and absolutely easy our wedding in St. Lucia was. We would not change a single thing and we owe our amazing wedding experience to you and your staff!

Initially concerned about planning a wedding overseas with a company discovered over the internet, our fears disappeared with your professional and reliable correspondence. Extremely organized, extremely efficient, and extremely informative, you were always able to answer all of our many (many!) questions, and provide suggestions and alternatives based on your knowledge and experience with weddings on the island. We were challenging customers as Dave and I had very specific ideas about our wedding ceremony (from our own ceremony script, to the type of pictures) but you found a way to accommodate all of our requests. Our wedding day was perfect and we have wonderful photos to prove it. Thanks again for being a wedding coordinator extraordinaire. We highly recommend your services!

Warm Regards,

Dave & Natasha , British Columbia , Canada

Dear Kayt and Michele –

As you both know by now, Jeff and I think you are saints. There is really no way for us to thank you for all you have done for us. You gave us a perfect wedding in paradise without any stress (and anyone who knows me can tell you that it is a near impossible task to make anything stress free for me! It is nothing short of a miracle!). We could not have done it without you, and we just feel we owe you such a debt of gratitude. You truly made our dream wedding come true!

We've been looking at our wedding photos almost every day since we came home from St. Lucia and we honestly just can't believe how beautiful and perfect everything was. We show other people the photos and they can't even believe the background in the photographs is real. When we asked for a ‘wedding with a view' we had no idea just how spectacular the view would be! And we really appreciate you throwing in the rainbow at no extra charge!

We knew right from the start that we had found something good in you two. You always made us feel like we were the only people you were dealing with, and your response time and professionalism for all of our questions and requests (big, small, important, stupid, and down right bizarre) was just amazing. I don't know how you do it! Your attention to detail and excellent taste made it so easy to trust you. It is quite a leap of faith to let someone else plan your wedding - especially long distance, but from the very beginning we knew everything would be great. I still can't believe how much attention you put into every single detail from the planning stages right up to the actual event.

I could go on and on, but this will be 10 pages long if I go into detail about everything. In short: the flowers were beyond our expectations, the cake was gorgeous and delicious, the music was excellent (everyone is still talking about the steel pan band), the food, drinks and atmosphere at the reception location was wonderful (and the staff was so helpful and friendly). Our photographs are amazing. The welcome baskets were just what we had hoped for, and I won't even mention the donkey in case you use this as a testimonial and anyone else gets any crazy ideas. On our wedding day we were so happy anyway, but we were overwhelmed and overjoyed by how beautiful and perfect everything was. Our wedding day was the happiest day of our lives so far, and you also made it the most beautiful and special day as well!

But most important is that you are both amazing people who are just a joy to work with. Not only was our wedding day special and amazing but you made us feel so important and special, too.

We will never know how to really thank you enough for everything including the “special project” you helped us with, too!

(Greer and Jeff adopted a stray dog - or rather the dog adopted them during their stay in St. Lucia. All turned out well and Greer and Jeff flew home with their new family member who is now settling down well in her new home in the States - and Lucy even got to ride in a limousine from the airport!)

Thank you again for giving us our dream wedding!

Greer and Jeff USA

From the time we made our initial enquiry back in January up until the big day in October, Michele made everything seem so easy. We received prompt responses to all of our enquiries and nothing seemed too much trouble for them to handle.

The day itself exceeded even our own hopes and expectations. We were all taken aback by just how magnificent the views were from our chosen venue, La Haut Plantation in Soufriere ; the Pitons seemed to be placed in the background just for us! Somehow, you even managed to stop torrential rain from falling prior to the ceremony. You obviously have some very good connections in high places!

It's impossible for any photographs to reflect the true beauty of our wedding location. What made it more astonishing was the fact that we didn't visit the location prior to the wedding day. Consequently, we were all to a man overwhelmed by the lushness and peacefulness of the landscape.

Everyone was looked after really well, especially us. We had a large amount of guests, and not one of them felt neglected. And Kayt even did some emergency babysitting with our son Cameron, who was a little upset just before the start of the ceremony. What a lifesaver!

Everything just seemed to flow, and we had nothing to do but relax and enjoy the day. Our guests all remarked on how well organised the day was – and how extraordinary the attention to detail was. Michele and Kayt were present, and yet inconspicuous and unobtrusive; no mean feat! They more than ensured that the day ran seamlessly. Our day is still a talking point for all who attended.

Thank you for everything. You truly deserve the name Awesome Caribbean Weddings !

Susan & Lloyd , UK

Kyle and I wanted to thank you sincerely for arranging and planning our perfect wedding. When the decision was made to have a wedding as far from home, we had to take a giant leap of faith and just trust that good people would do good things on our behalf. We have to say you were incredible, so efficient, and organized. You and your company exceeded our expectation! Because of your hard work and conscientiousness, every single detail from our wedding has been forever crystallized in our memories. We couldn't have picked a better island and location for our wedding.

W e really are amazed that our wedding was so perfect despite doing everything online. From beginning to end, it was such an incredible experience! It was total paradise! Every detail was taken care of; all we had to do was show up and enjoy ourselves. The flowers, hair, makeup, minister, cake, music, photographer, lunch, champagne, limousine ride, dinner at The Great House, was absolutely perfect. So many compliments have been given to our pictures, and we believe we've inspired many others to do the same. We wish we could get married again in St. Lucia!  We will definitely recommend you/Awesome Caribbean Weddings to anyone who wants to run off to St. Lucia and get married. If you ever need a reference of any type, please let us know. We would be glad to write a glowing letter on what a wonderful job you did.

“Thank you for a wonderful day,”

Renee & Kyle from Minneapolis, MN, married at the cliff location in St. Lucia on

Dear Kayt and Michele,

Firstly I would like to thank you both for making our wedding day truly the best day of our lives. After many frustrating phone calls with other companies at last I found Awesome Caribbean Weddings . From the start you were both very efficient, professional, accommodating and helpful. If any bride to be wants a less stressful wedding in beautiful St Lucia, with as much or as little input into the planning as you choose, then I highly recommend Awesome Caribbean Weddings .

We arrived on the island a few days before our guests and booked into the Ginger Lily Hotel. A very friendly hotel and the rooms were beautiful and clean, after a day at the beach we came back to fresh petals sprinkled on the bed. After some amazing day trips, including a Catamaran trip to Soufriere in the south of the island, a Helicopter ride which was spectacular and a beautiful rainforest walk, we really had seen St Lucia at it's best.

We had a Barbecue the night before the wedding at the Ginger Lily, they really laid on a fantastic array of food. We also had some Caribbean style entertainment with a Steel Pan Band who were just fantastic. It was a blast and the perfect way to spend our last evening as Miss Martin and Mr Fee.

The best was yet to come. We got married in a lovely gazebo surrounded by lawns, which was absolutely stunning. It was the perfect day, the flowers were spectacular, the String Ensemble really captured St Lucia, the marriage officer was delightful and the photographer was excellent. We ended up buying all the extra photo's he took as they were so good. If you are undecided on getting your ceremony videoed, then take my advice and definitely have one, it has been well worth the money and we have really enjoyed showing the DVD to family and friends that were unable to come. We decided on Froggie Jacques as our reception venue and it was just awesome, with a lovely bayside vista and having the place to ourselves was a bonus. We had eaten some amazing food whilst in St Lucia, but this just far exceeded our expectations. The owners were so accommodating and joined in with all the fun, they were more like our friends by the end of the night. For the entertainment we had fire eating, which was guest participation and limbo dancing and the DJ was excellent playing all our requested songs.

My advice to any couple who want a destination wedding in St Lucia is to definitely go with Awesome Caribbean Weddings . If you are honeymooning on the island then the most romantic part is definitely the south, with Anse Chastanet and the Jalousie Hilton a hit with us.

Thank you once again Kayt and Michele, you really did make the beginning of our marriage the most amazing experience of our lives

Love Suzanne & Garry Fee.

We got married at the gorgeous large private villa, which was organized by Awesome Caribbean Weddings , whom we found just by stumbling on to the web site. There is always a concern when you do things on-line, but the whole process from start to finish was quick, easy & safe on-line thanks to the Awesome Caribbean Weddings team, obviously as it was our wedding, our special day & we wanted it to be as perfect as possible, so we had lots & lots & even more lots of questions for the best part of the year! So thanks to Kayt & Michele who were very patient with us!

We could never of imagined the day to go so perfect, down to every last detail, the flowers, the lovely Caribbean wedding cake, even our car to take us for the sunset photos was dressed for the occasion!

We were so lucky to have found Awesome & were glad that we did not get married on a resort; the way we had done this was personal to us in everyway.

We both loved our day so much, it was perfect in everyway & we never wanted it to end.

Thank you so so much to Awesome Caribbean Weddings who without them made our day truly special.

A whole 4 weeks since Vicky and I married!

Thank you for making it such a special day for us. I was a bit worried about organising it over the internet, but you were absolutely brilliant. You got everything as we wanted and it was all made so easy for us.

All the things you said you'd do, you did, and with such attention to detail. The care you took with the flowers was much appreciated, and the steel band - well wow! And the photographer you organised took great care and produced some excellent photos. Even the cake was as tasty as you promised!

Thank you for giving us a memorable day we will always remember vividly and with enormous pleasure.

Paul and Vicky Housego UK

Just a note to let you know that we couldn’t have been more pleased with our wedding at the cliff location and reception at Froggie Jack’s. We all had the most wonderful time. It was literally the best day of our lives. Your professionalism was astounding as was everything about the day. We wouldn’t change a thing; it was exactly what we wanted. The cliff top site was beautiful, the flowers gorgeous and attention to detail so appreciated. We choose this type of wedding because we didn’t want the stress associated with planning such an event. And I tell you what, this is the only way to go; we had the most fabulous time and so did all our guests, it was phenomenal. The way you took care of all the details and timings still amazes me. Our guests can’t stop commenting on how well the whole event went, how beautiful everything was, and how much fun we all had. The food at Froggie Jack’s was probably the best we had while we were on the island (and we had many five star meals) and the hostess so attentive, accommodating and professional, to say nothing of the wonderful atmosphere. To cap if off the wonderful boat ride down to Ladera was perfect. The whole day was like a fantasy. Then, I was amazed how wonderful the pictures turned out, we couldn’t ask for anything more. We can’t thank you enough for our truly incredible and awesome day! You will always be part of special day.

Sheryl & Kevin Meekin, MT, USA

Thank you both so very much.

On behalf of Mike and myself we want to thank you for a job well done.  We still talk about the wedding day today and what continues to stand out in our mind is that because of Awesome Caribbean Weddings, the whole day was fantastic, unbelievable and very memorable.  Knowing that you were taking care of everything, we were allowed to relax and have fun during all of the hours leading up to the wedding--shopping in Castries, relaxing by the pool and spending time with our friends--all without a worry.  All because of your wonderful service.  From the first email communication to the very last drip of champagne you all were on top of every detail.  The wedding itself was beautiful, romantic and well orchestrated.  And we can't say enough how Awesome Caribbean Weddings went beyond the call to duty and helped with cameras and making sure we had a great time.

On our wedding day, we were both so laid back and relaxed.

On the way to the beach the driver asked me if I was nervous...I just told him that I wasn't nervous at all, just excited and couldn't he drive any faster?!!  I was so excited to be married that I just wanted to get there!

All in all we were both so pleased with our wedding day, and so sad that it is over.  Our only true regret is that we didn't hire the videographer!  To anyone out there considering it but thinking it might be too much money....just do it!!!  You'll never remember everything as well as you wish you did!

Thank you Michele and Awesome Caribbean Weddings for making our day truly the mostwonderful day of our lives!

James and I want to thank you for our wonderful wedding experience. I say “experience” and not just “day” because it wasn't just about the day, but the journey leading up to the day and the time spent in St Lucia before and after the ceremony, which are all so memorable. We knew we wanted to get married on a tropical island but it was your website and the first few email correspondences with you, that really turned us on to St Lucia . Looking back we can't imagine having it anywhere else. It was so fun planning with you. When I tell people we planned via email and a phone call here and there they are shocked! Of course we were fortunate to be able to take a quick trip down to St Lucia in our early planning stages to meet you and have you show us around in person and what you had in mind for us. Needless to say it only made us more excited about choosing Awesome Caribbean Weddings to do our wedding, once we met you!

You really made our dream come true and having the ceremony on the secluded beach was just what we wanted! The pictures with the surf in the background are gorgeous!

The Hotel Capri was the perfect setting for the reception. Dancing around the pool was just what we wanted. The atmosphere was romantic and elegant and everything we imagined. The tables looked gorgeous with the flowers and candles. We are so happy that we booked it exclusively for the 4 days prior to the ceremony, with our families. We really felt like it was our home and everyone was so relaxed. Andy and his staff were wonderful! Renting the small villa “Smugglers Point” for the 5 days after the ceremony was the perfect way to spend our honeymoon. What a beautiful spot and views!

Having you and your staff at our sides through out the 10 months of planning really made it so easy for us and I truly was not nervous at all on our wedding day! I didn't have to think of a thing! The band was excellent and I am so glad they were able to learn our wedding songs! We were really pleased with the guitar player on the beach! I finally got to hear him when we were watching the wedding video! The food was wonderful! Everyone still keeps talking about the ribs and our chocolate wedding cake! Oh yes and the flowers, what can I say! They were so very gorgeous.

We watch the video often and have shown many of our friends who were unable to be with us. The videographer did such a great job and of course we love our wedding pictures!

You hold a special place in our hearts, as does all of St Lucia ! We will be back soon and thank you so very much for everything!

All the best

We have only the highest regard for Awesome Caribbean Weddings and, given the numerous weddings attended previously by my lovely  wife & I, family, and friends, the planning, development, and implementation of services provided by Michele and Kayt is
unparalleled. Accordingly, it is with these words as context that Amanda and I submit our testimonial on behalf of ourselves and our 30 guests.

Amanda and I decided on St. Lucia because we needed a vacation; and because, we wanted to be able to spend large amounts of quality time with our family and friends -- who we encouraged to arrive several days prior to our actual wedding day. With guidance from
Kayt and Michele, we planned daily events for our guests ranging from shopping and beach trips to horseback riding and deep sea fishing to a lovely sunset cruise. As one relative stated as the Caribbean sun set into the sea, "Boy... you and Amanda did it right... this cruise is very nice... very nice."

To no surprise, our wedding day was more wonderful than the week's events. From the smallest of details regarding seating arrangements and floral arrangements prior to our ceremony, to the steel pan band playing as we walked down the aisle, to the absolutely fabulous meal and music after our ceremony, Kayt and Michele were nothing short of professional and conscientious (not to mention pretty good dancers... well, after a  little coaxing). And now, when Amanda and I talk about our wedding day, no other words could
summarize our journey to St.  Lucia better than Hoagy Carmichael's "Stardust":

Sometimes I wonder why I spend, the lonely nights dreaming of a song
That melody haunts my reverie; and, I am once again with you
When love was new and each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago; and now, my consolation is in the stardust
of a song
Beside a garden wall where stars are bright? And you are in my arms
The nightingale tells its fairy tale of paradise where roses grew
Though I dream in vain in my heart it will remain
My stardust melody? the memory of love's refrain.

A good time definitely was had by all prior to the wedding. Thank you, Kayt and Michele, for a truly Awesome Caribbean Wedding.

I was finally completing the wedding album last weekend and as well as the good feeling to get the album done, it was great to get a chance to really reflect back on the wedding .....and I had to drop you a line to thank you for the huge part that your company played in ensuring myself and Diarmuid have such great memories. Thanks for taking the time to really listen and understand what we wanted for the wedding - and for making all those suggestions and getting creative and resourceful ( especially with the shawls!). You
were always there to help with everything and I always felt that it was a top priority for you, no matter how small the detail seemed.
Not least - you helped make it fun...there was definitely a few giggles shared along the way! Great job!, thanks a million. Cheers

Siobhan and Diarmuid, Santa Monica, CA

James and I would like to thank you again for a beautiful...beautiful wedding at the Cliff Top!  It was more wonderful than we imagined.  The decorations were gorgeous!  The photographer was very nice; patient and professional and we absolutely loved the video!  The video was filled with fantastic special effects and completely caught the ambiance of the entire wedding day.  It was truly romantic!

My Mother, Ellen, was so impressed with your complete dedication in making our day perfect.  She thought, the marriage officer could not have done a nicer ceremony, than if he had known us personally.  He was so warm and caring.

Also, we thank you for referring us to the LeSport Resort for our honeymoon.  I have never had such special service and treatment; I almost felt guilty!...We adored LeSport.  We will be returning for our 1st anniversary.  We loved St. Lucia, the people there are really special.  Thank you for the wedding and honeymoon of a lifetime.

Thank you so much for your help on our wedding day. The reason we decided to marry in the Carribean was so that we would not have to worry about anything. We put everything in your hands and you made sure the day was perfect.  Everything was exquisite from the striking bouquet to the rose petal confetti to the impecable photographer and videographer. Everyone raves about the quality of our photographs. Thank you again for letting us have a stress free wedding and overseeing every detail. We could not have dreamed of a more perfect wedding day.

All the best,

Cara and Bob Ellsworth
Centreville, VA

From the moment that I visited your website and spoke to you on the phone I knew that having a wedding in St.. Lucia on the beach was the right decision.  Todd and I were able to make a list of things that we did and did not want for our wedding day, set a budget for ourselves and still feel like it would be exactly what we envisioned.  When the day finally arrived, it was above and
beyond what we could ever have imagined!  Every aspect of the ceremony was intimate and beautiful; the beach, the Justice of the Peace, the steel pan band and of course the stunning natural backdrop for all of our pictures and video.
We want to thank you and everyone else who helped to make our day perfect. 
Through the entire 10 month process, you made me feel like I was your number one priority and that you would do whatever it took to create a wedding day
that Todd and I would never forget.  And we never will forget that day!

Using Awesome Caribbean Weddings to organize and perform our wedding was something that I would recommend to everyone.  If couples are looking to celebrate their marriage in a beautiful place with stunning views, gracious people and have it be exactly what they have always dreamed of without all of the hassle, I would tell them to take that leap of faith and let Awesome Caribbean Weddings help them to make their dreams come true.

Thanks again for everything.  Our entire family was satisfied and we
still got the wedding day that we wanted.  Thanks you for doing such a
wonderful job. 

Cheers-

My fiance and I had this really cool idea about getting married in St. Lucia and did not give much thought to the logistics of it all. Had it not been for the lovely people at Awesome Caribbean Weddings, we would probably still be there now some six weeks later trying to get it all together.

When we first decided on the wedding we thought we would be able to organise it ourselves, but as we looked deeper into it we quickly realised that this would not be possible given our time schedule and we would need some professional help and as we did not know how to contact Thunderbird 5 we chose the next best thing, Awesome Caribbean Weddings. We were very sceptical at first about parting with money to give to someone we had never met, although the website looked impressive enough and this company looked like the answer to our dreams, we had doubts because it all seemed to good to be true.

Being a typical non - trusting Essex boy I always think the worse. I was paying out money for flowers, video, a photographer, champagne, transport, you name it, but the company was four and a half thousand miles away and i really was not sure if anything would have been done when I arrived in the Caribbean. I have been lucky enough to have visited this part of the world many times and for those of you that have also, you know how horizontally laid back life is out there. Life ambles along at no more than one mile per hour and things take time to happen, so I was expecting dodgy wedding photographs and nothing organised at all and everything to be a last minute rush. I am very pleased to say, how wrong was I.

Our wedding was the best wedding I have ever been to and even if I was a millionaire and spent hundreds of thousands of pounds it could not have been any better. 'The Firm' had organised everything and they were flexible enough to make minor changes even after we arrived on the island, mainly involving the guy's traveling on a separate minibus to the girl's. I thought it would be traditional if I did not see my bride until we arrived at the waterfall site in the rain forest, but fortunately it also meant that the chaps could stop off at the local BeerKellar in Anse Le Raye for a glass of the landlords finest bitter. The whole day went like clockwork and even though it is a bit of a drive to the waterfall, I would recommend anyone to consider it for their ceremony. Michele and Kayt had taken care of everything and all we had to do was turn up on the day and go through with
it, no stress, no worries and i can honestly say that using the services of Awesome Caribbean Weddings was one of the best decisions we have ever made and i promised Michele that I would use them again the next time I get married.

Just to finish on a serious note, it was a pleasure meeting Michele, she is genuinely a lovely lady and with Kayt they gave us the perfect start to our married life. We will never forget our very special wedding day on June 3rd 2004, or was it the 4th?

P.S. The photographs were superb

Tim and I want to thank you for making our wedding a fairy tale come
true. Everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The paperwork was quick and painless, the hotel you recommended was
fabulous and the ceremony itself was everything we had hoped it would be. The photographer was outstanding - we have so many lovely pictures by which to remember our wedding. Every detail was tended to and we didn't have to worry about a thing! Thank you for a perfect day.

It was a pleasure meeting you. We will be back to renew our vows!

Fondly,

Jill and Tim USA

Awesome Caribbean Weddings can simply create that dream wedding to perfection, and we cannot thank them enough for the unique and tailor made wedding they provided for us.  They made our day truly special.

We got married at a beach that was idyllic, it was secluded with a fantastic view of Pigeon Island and the Unicorn Brig even made an appearance just in time for the photographs.

Once our wedding vows were complete, we were never rushed. We were able to sit back and relax and enjoy this beautiful setting, sipping champagne that just keeps flowing glass after glass, having fun listening to the Steel Pan band playing local island music, which you both get to have a go - highly recommended!

The attention to detail for all aspects of the wedding was exemplary.  The island flowers were unlike ones I have seen before, they were beautiful!  The bouquet, boutonniere, floral decorations and the cake which was decorated with orchids were perfect.

Everyone worries about the photographs, with these guys there's no need to...the photographers are excellent, they certainly know what they are doing.  Our photographs are wonderful, with family and friends still commenting on how good they are.

As wedding planners Michele and Kayt are professional and creative and can be trusted to create a special day that can be cherished.  Many thanks again to the 'Awesome Caribbean Wedding' team.

Thanks for everything that you all did to make everything so wonderful. It was everything that we envisioned, and more. 

Your attention to detail was amazing.  People are still telling us that it was the most beautiful wedding that they have ever attended.  

Our friends are kidding us about going back to renew our vows next year.

Thank you so much for everything!!!  You truly made our wedding day perfect!!  Tom and I both agree that the wedding location, ceremony, flowers, food, band, photos, etc exceeded our expectations. 

My young son summed it up by saying, "everything was disgustingly perfect--even the rainbow!!" You helped us achieve our goal---celebrating our memorable

occasion with our children in a total stress-free

manner so that we could enjoy both our wedding and your beautiful island. 

Thank you again for everything!!

Tom and Carolyn Friar - Canada

Thank you for making our wedding such a beautiful and memorable experience. Charles and I cannot wait to renew our vows with you. You turned my wedding day into something that I could have never dreamed up. It was so simplistic yet so very sophisticated. The Sugar Mill exceeded my expectations. Thank you

for the elegant decorations and exquisite bouquet of flowers. I really cannot thank you enough.

That was the most perfect day of my life. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

A quick note to express our thanks for the hard work you put in to make our special day all we had ever hoped for and more.

The experience really was awesome. Not just the actual wedding day but the whole planning leading up to the day. There was something indefinable about the way in which the planning and arranging was conducted which created a very calm air of inevitability that the day was going to work out just fine. That feeling of inevitability was very reassuring and allowed us to relax and actually enjoy the planning of this special day. The way in which individual ideas were encouraged and built upon produced a completely unique and personal wedding as oppose to a conveyor belt style wedding, which we were very keen to avoid.

All the worries which we were led to believe was an unavoidable part of every wedding just did not materialise. From our initial contact with Awesome it become evident that we were dealing with complete professionals.

The attention to detail was superb and allowed us to exercise as much or as little involvement as we wished. The plethora of forms and procedures to be complied with in order to have a Catholic Church wedding abroad was truly initially daunting but was made clear, easy and manageable by the way we were guided through the process.

As for the wedding itself it was truly superb and will always remain in our memories, especially our eleventh hour snag that momentarily threatened to halt proceedings which was quickly resolved in that trademark calm, efficient, professional manner.

We had a superb day which at the end left us with only one regret…………that we couldn't rewind and do the whole Awesome experience over again in exactly the same way.

Many Thanks

On our wedding day our gorgeous flowers arrived shortly after lunch, as did my hairstylist who quickly transformed me into a bride with an updo.  Our wedding guests departed for the ceremony location and my sister and I were picked up by Ernest and had a great drive to the beach.   

Our beach location looked beautiful.  We had two marquees, chairs for our guests and the flowers were amazing.  Orchids, ginger lilys and conch shells adorned an arch and the sand.  James, the Justice of the Peace, delivered a wonderful ceremony as 32 of our friends and family looked on.  A champagne toast followed and our guests enjoyed the beach setting and great music as we had our photographs taken.  Our photos are spectacular - our photographer Peter did fabulous job, and Michele was on site to make sure my veil was in just the right spot, and that the waves were timed perfectly.

We really can't praise you enough. From the moment we contacted you, through all the planning and preparation, we received truly first-class, individual service.
If you're looking for a wonderful place to spend your special day, something traditional or something a little exotic, Awesome Caribbean Weddings are people you can trust.

You made us feel relaxed from the day we arrived, confident that everything was going to be just as we wished.
The Church at Laborie was so beautiful for the ceremony and the weather was perfect for our champagne on the beach!
The hotel you helped us choose (Ladera) was the most amazing place we have ever stayed, with incredible views of the Pitons from every room and from the restaurant.
The St. Lucian people are the warmest, friendliest people you could hope to meet.
The flowers, the photographer, the video - everything was professional and the whole experience has left us with memories to cherish for the rest of our lives.
Can't wait to go back for our anniversary!!

We had the most perfect day - it was everything we wanted and more. Thank you so much for doing such a great job for us. I can't tell you how happy we were with everything. The photographs are fantastic - I was very impressed with the photographer (and I commission them for a living so am a tough judge)

Victoria and Daniel Hamer-Hodges. London, UK

St. Lucia is a beautiful place to visit, and the citizens are a happy, proud, friendly, and gracious people with a rich culture and heritage.  The Awesome Caribbean staff planned and executed a perfect wedding for our daughter, as well as marvelous accommodations and entertainment for our wedding party.

All our guests were very pleased with your efficient and pleasant way of handling their transfers, accommodations, and extra amenities.  You have the wonderful combination of being calm, patient, well organized, friendly, and attentive to the smallest details.  We would highly recommend you to our friends.  Congratulations on organizing a perfect wedding.
