Such a great experience with Jennifer and the CDE team! From the very beginning we felt like we were in great hands. Planning a destination wedding can be very stressful but Jennifer was very organized and knowledgeable. COVID caused a lot of unexpected events but the entire team was so responsive and accommodating throughout the entire process. We can’t say enough great things about Jennifer and the CDE team! If you want to get married in Cabo they’re the best of the best!

Jennifer with Creative Destination Events was amazing in helping us plan our wedding in Mexico. Communication was great and she was very responsive when we had questions. She helped organize every detail from contracting vendors to creating and adjusting schedules and made our big day absolutely perfect. We just got married in Cabo on December 3rd and even during the height of the pandemic they worked with us and made our decision to go forth with our plans much easier. They made our concerns a priority and made sure we were well taken care of. We’re so thankful for Jennifer and Melissa on our wedding day. They helped keep us on schedule which made everything go very smooth. I highly recommend Creative Destinations for your wedding planning. You won’t be disappointed!! Our wedding was a dream and they made it all come together.

We had the best experience can’t stress this enough!!! Melissa and the whole team and creative destination events were the absolute best to work with. They made our wedding the over the top best night of our lives! It’s always stressful planning a wedding and let alone a destination wedding for 165 guests but this group made it so stress free. We also used their linen company as well as the hair and makeup and we loved how everything was a one stop shop! We will be working with them again for many more events in Cabo as we have a place down there. This is by far the best company to work with in Cabo!

I could not more highly recommend Creative Destination Events for your wedding planning and coordination needs. An event planner myself, I wasn’t sure I wanted to work with a planner- a few months before the wedding, after a consultation with the team, I decided it might be a good idea. Hands down best decision I could have made! Jennifer and the team quickly picked up the planning and coordination details and flawlessly executed my vision. In addition to the coordination, I worked with their team on rentals, florals and they helped me secure a photographer-all within the budget I had. Communication was always clear, effective and timely. They took all the heavy lifting of detailed coordination of my plate allowing me to fully enjoy the few months leading up to the big day. Photos and mock ups of wedding elements ensured we were always on the same page- when planning a destination wedding this was extremely helpful! Their expertise was evident and their familiarity with the local area, vendors, and even my specific venue was beyond helpful! Vendors all had nothing but the best things to say about the team upon learning they were our coordinators- they were excited to work with this team of professionals! I have high expectations since I plan events for a living- I can honestly say they were exceeded in every way! Having Jennifer on site and by my side on my wedding day was such an incredible experience. She was everything I could have hoped for and made my day extra special! I can’t wait to find an excuse to do another event in Cabo and Creative Destinations Events will be my first call!!

From our first meeting, the team at Creative Destination Events offered extremely organized and professional guidance planning our destination wedding. From accommodations, transportation, design services, catering, décor and more, the team provided full support and help coordinating every detail for us and the wedding party. Jennifer helped us identify everything needed to make our dream wedding a reality. We are so grateful to the entire team at CDE who took the time from the planning stages (pricing, design & décor) to the execution (set-up, coordination & management), to create such a spectacular and beautiful wedding. We highly recommend Creative Destination Events to anyone looking for leadership, wisdom and expertise planning any event. Creative Destination Events efforts and dedication are what made our wedding such a success. Everyone who attended praised the execution and attention to detail provided by the CDE team. Thank you, Jennifer, Suzanne, Tere, Melissa, and the Creative Destination Events team for making our wedding a truly spectacular event.

Creative Destination Events were wonderful to work with!

Always professional, always quick to reply, with original ideas and great suggestions. They never missed a detail and we did not have to worry about anything. They guided us every step of the way and we were extremely happy with the vendors they recommended. Suzanne, Melissa, Marianna, and Jennifer, along with their hair and makeup team were amazing. They are all very dedicated, hardworking and fun to work with.
Their inventory of furniture, dinnerware, glassware, linens, flatware, and accessories is quite large and the delivery/setup/cleanup on the days of our events was extremely professional.
I cannot say enough good things about this company…they were terrific! Our Welcome Party, wedding ceremony and reception were absolutely beautiful.

Again, thank you so much- words cannot express the way you helped us get through this wedding!!

Worth every penny! The first thing we did when we decided to wed in Cabo Was hire Creative Destination Events. Melissa and her team were with us every step of the way for an entire year helping us. Melissa was always quick to respond with an answer to every question. She would even return emails late at night or on the weekend.

We would never have been able to pull off our wedding with such EASE had we not hired them! It allowed us to step back and enjoy the process while they came up with all of their creative ideas and proposals.

If we ever decide to have another event in Cabo they will be the first ones we hire!

Thank you Melissa and Creative Destination Events!! “

Suzanne and Jennifer did an incredible job bringing my vision to life. They held my hand through the entire process and were extremely easy to communicate with. We were able to visit the show room on a few occasions to check in with the progress and we were so thankful for that. When pricing was presented, they were always able to show me a couple options and suggestions to make sure we stayed on budget.

APRIL 2018

I can’t say enough how thankful I am that we chose to go with Creative Destination Events to coordinate my daughter’s destination wedding. We were fortunate enough to make a planning trip to Cabo 5 months before the wedding. We had previously only been dealing with our on-site resort wedding planners. We met Suzanne when she came to our resort for us to choose linens. I soon sensed that she was a go-getter with a sense of understanding of what we were envisioning. We wanted final say in all decisions but needed leadership through the process.

Suzanne took us to her warehouse to see their many options in linens, dishes, furniture, etc. As I watched her team assemble, take down, and reassemble different set ups and table scenes for us, I could clearly see this was a well run, team effort, group that could figure out our vision and bring it to life. After realizing that through Suzanne’s businesses they could handle not only the linens, but every aspect of a wedding – flowers, linens, tables and chairs, furniture, hair and makeup, music, design, set up, and take down, we hired them as an outside wedding coordinator.

We were assigned a coordinator- Melissa, and a designer-Tere. They were AMAZING! We made many wedding related decisions that day in their warehouse but still had a lot of details to work out as the weeks went on. I like (expect) reasonably fast and specific communication when working on any project. They were always available through email or phone calls to answer questions or make suggestions. Every few weeks we would have a conference call (Melissa, Tere, Suzanne, my daughter and myself) to make sure everyone was on the same page and discuss any changes or decisions that needed to be made. Tere and Melissa would send us updated visions, floor plans and timelines as things progressed. Once we arrived back in Cabo, wedding week, we were taken back to their warehouse where mock-ups of our tables had been assembled, and final floor plans and timelines were established.

We were shown custom signs and other items that we had picked out online. We made a few very small tweaks and were told to go to back to our resort, relax and enjoy the next few days as they had everything under control. And they did!! The days leading up to the wedding and the day of were absolutely stress free for the MOB and the bride. I didn’t know that was possible!! We spent the wedding day in the brides room, with the awesome hair and make up team working on 7 of us, drinking mimosas, snacking, listening to music, laughing and chilling. We got updates and pictures of the setup from Tere and Melissa and a few of our wedding guest that would stop by the bridal suite for a quick visit. It came together perfectly!! The wedding was a legal ceremony and held on the beach.

The cocktail hour, dinner and reception were on a terrace overlooking the beach. Their team moved the chairs and flowers from the ceremony to the terrace seamlessly as we made pictures and mingled with our 60+ guest.

Melissa kept things flowing on schedule from the beginning of the day till the end of the night. The natural beauty of Cabo along with the creativity, attention to detail, and professionalism of the team at Creative Destination Events make the perfect combination for a wonderful, stress free destination wedding. My daughter has said it was the wedding of her dreams and I think that is the ultimate goal for all mothers of the brides.

I don’t even know where to start.. my experience with Creative Destination Events was one of my best decisions with our wedding planning! Our wedding would have NOT been stress free if it wasn’t for this team. We were blessed with Jennifer as our wedding planner and she blew me out of the water! SHES INCREDIBLE! Sometimes I would send her 10 questions/emails a day and she was so prompt. She never made me feel like I was bugging her! Her outline of our day was perfect.

My wedding photographer said she’s never had a timeline so perfectly organized. On the wedding day Jennifer made me her top priority as if I was her only wedding the entire year. (Not true tho, they are BUSY! And that’s why they’re #1) she made sure I was always in contact with her, I knew how to get a hold of her if she was running around and she had me ready for all the times I needed to be somewhere.

She worked so well with not only our bridal party but the entire team- resort planner, videographer, DJ, etc. I feel like Jennifer became family at the end of this and im so thankful for her. Thank you Jennifer for making OUR day so so so special!!! Brides stop looking…. every penny is worth it THEY ARE INCREDRIBLE!!!

We interviewed several companies for our wedding planning as we started to consider a wedding in Cabo. Jennifer and Suzanne were by far the best in terms of understanding my vision and making us feel comfortable and confident that they could create the wedding of our dreams. Each and every step of this process was flawless. The detail and expertise with selecting vendors could not have been better, and we were absolutely blown away by every single aspect of our day.

Not only do Jennifer and Suzanne understand and create a vision, they do so with ease and perfection. They are kind and understanding, and even our guests exclaimed how wonderful Jennifer was with keeping everything organized. The cake, the flowers, the food, the drinks, the day of coordination, the advance planning, the suggestions for how to make the day just perfect were all unbelievable.

Jennifer goes above and beyond to make sure that she is available to help with every aspect of the wedding planning. She literally thought of EVERYTHING!!! She was available to me at all hours of the day and sometimes the night, and her sense of humor and kind spirit came through in each one of our communications. We have finally settled into our honeymoon location and an absolutely stunning event, and Jennifer is STILL in communication to make sure that we have everything we need.

The ability of Creative Destination Events to put together such incredible events is nothing we have experienced thus far. The money spent on wedding planning was the BEST money spent on the entire event, and Jennifer and Suzanne were worth every penny. We could not have pulled off a day as perfect as our wedding day without them, and they will forever be a part of our lives. Not only did they do a great job, they are both people I would be happy to call friends.

I can not state enough how perfect everything was. I was at first hesitant to work with someone I’d have never met in person but when I messaged Jennifer with Creative Destination Events she replied with excitement and eagerness to learn more about my plans to propose to my girl (now fiancé). I sent her a few ideas and she got back to me right away. The communication was excellent and Jennifer was very detailed with her responses. Jennifer was able to set up a beautiful horseback riding experience and an amazing display on top of a mountain on the cost. The photographer was amazing and the decor team couldn’t have done a better job. I’d give 10 stars if I could, thank you all again for making this unforgettable experience for us!

I was looking to plan a proposal in Cabo during vacation with my girlfriend (now fiance). Jennifer was extremely helpful in choosing the perfect spot and meeting all accommodations that I was looking for the in the proposal. I wanted to ensure that we had a romantic dinner on the beach set up, but in a private spot so that it could just be us two.Jennifer took care of every aspect of planning and made sure that all I had to do was sign off on each portion of the proposal after each discussion that we had. Jennifer was always very responsive to emails and provided excellent, excellent customer service.

10/10 would recommend her to anyone! Thank you Jennifer!

I knew I wanted to propose to my girlfriend, but wasn’t sure where or how to. We had a trip to Cabo coming up, and I had a vision in mind, but didn’t know Cabo well enough to be confident I could plan it alone. I found Creative Destination Events online and sent Mel my thoughts and some sample pictures of what I wanted. Within a week Mel was able to find a location that was perfect for what I wanted, and helped set up the most amazing proposal I could have imagined. She offered great advice and multiple options to choose from. Thanks to Mel and her team we have such a memorable experience and I would highly recommend seeking out their expertise.

Engagement Proposal / DECEMBER 2018

Melissa’s craft and attention to detail made our proposal day absolutely perfect. My fiancé says it was more than she could have ever dreamt of. She definitely brought out my vision and went far above and beyond what I expected. I’m forever grateful for her assistance and she’s truly earned my business if we decide to do a destination wedding here in Cabo. The team she was able to build around this special moment were all such a pleasure to work with. Her local network or professional decorators, photographers, and videographers were all so passionate about their work. It definitely shows in the photos and trailer of our full video. Many many thanks to Oswaldo, Lands End Films, and Cabo Linens for the seamless execution. Very professional, friendly, and easy to work with. The whole team has an amazing eye and I can’t wait to see the finished video. Melissa was very accommodating of ALL my requests and the collaboration was as easy as it could be. She is amazing at what she does and I’m glad I reached out to Creative Destination Events for my proposal. I highly recommend collaborating with Melissa for your next event, big or small. Best wishes and more success for the coming years to Melissa and the whole team at CDE!
