Hi, I’m Leslie!
I specialize in creating boutique-sized weddings and luxury elopements in Mexico and the Caribbean’s most spectacular all inclusive resorts. We don’t believe in “cookie cutter” destination weddings around here – every couple’s story is unique to them, and your wedding day should reflect the same.
Think of me as not only your “travel agent”, but your personal wedding concierge. I’m here to make sure you get to bask in each magical moment while I handle the logistics for you. Go ahead and say goodbye to all your wedding day worries…it’s time to live it up in paradise!
DISCOVER THE CHARM OF AN INTIMATE GUEST COUNT
Look - I’ve been in your shoes…
When I planned my own destination wedding to Riviera Maya back in 2015, I experienced firsthand how challenging it can be to manage all the moving parts involved.
While getting married in Mexico still remains one of the best choices I ever made, I remember wishing I had someone else to handle the guest bookings, organize the transportation, and make sure the resort I chose brought my wedding vision to life.
But that’s exactly what I’m here to do for you!
But a Grand Experience
but feeling overwhelmed by resort choices, wedding details, and all the venue requirements?
Are you dreaming of a sophisticated and unique Elopement or Boutique Destination Wedding Experience
