The Event Mexico

Thanks to The Event Mexico, we had the wedding of our dreams!!

When my husband and I decided to get married in Puerto Vallarta, we were a little worried about how we would be able to plan the wedding from a distance, especially for a group of over 100 guests! We live in Chicago and it was hard to research/contact hotels and vendors in Puerto Vallarta. We knew that we didn't want the typical hotel package for our wedding (and we definitely didn't want to pay the typical tourist rates!!), so we needed some help from someone on the ground in Mexico.

Lucky for us, we came across the opportunity to work with Jeniffer and Rebeca at The Event Mexico - they were absolutely wonderful!! Most importantly, they helped us create our perfect wedding while staying well within our budget. They negotiated incredible rates for us with the hotel and all the vendors - we would not have been able to afford our wedding without their local knowledge, contacts, and negotiation skills.

A lot of hotels have an onsite wedding coordinator for destination weddings, however those coordinators are often unable or unwilling to customize the wedding details. They usually offer a couple of packages depending on what you can afford, but they don't work with you to pick out your perfect centerpieces, flowers, dance floor, rehearsal dinner set-up, etc. Jen and Rebeca took care of ALL of this and more. We got everything we wanted on a very limited budget.

Another reason I loved working with Jen and Rebeca was the rehearsal dinner. At our rehearsal dinner, many of our guests asked me "how is the wedding going to be better than this??" We had a BBQ on the beach with miami style lounge sofas, lantern lighting, and latin lounge music playing in the background. It was such a great party and precursor to our wedding, which of course exceeded everyone's expectations.

I can't say enough about how amazing our wedding was. So many of our friends and family are still talking about it (6 months later...). Everyone said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to.

For all of this and much more, we are forever grateful to Jen and Rebeca... Thank you for making our dreams come true!

Jeniffer was not willing to work with budget set out when she agreed to take my wedding. The owner of my reception venue recommended her for my wedding and put her in contact with me. Details were discussed between them in terms of price before she even contacted me. Months later Jeniffer came to me and said she would not take care of my wedding with the budget already discussed and made me be the middle man between the venue owner and herself. She did not even attempt to try and work things out in terms of price for me with the venue owner. Then she suggested I look at her select locations and not follow through with my venue of choice. In my opinion she was very unprofessional.

Rebeca went above and beyond for us. She created our vision and made everything so flawless for us. Any questions I had,she always responded to me very quickly!! Loved her! Talented girl!
