Hi Marsha,

Marsha and Harumi were amazing and made our day and the whole trip super special. From helping us to select the hotel, organizing travel and accommodation for all our guests, to all the planning of our special day. We were very lucky to have them by our side to assist and advise on each decision. They have a wealth of knowledge on wedding planning, especially destination weddings, that was invaluable. I couldn’t recommend them more.

“With over two decades of experience, there’s no other Industry titan, you want in your back pocket.”

When it comes to planning a wedding, it can be an incredibly stressful time, especially a destination wedding! Marsha has been nothing but helpful throughout the entire process from start to finish and if there is a better person you can have on your team that will answer your call at 6am in a different time zone, she is your person. Throughout the process, we were able to research different resorts and we finalized on Dreams Tulum. We know when travelling with a huge group of people, logistically speaking, there will be no way everything falls in line, but this experience came close. What sealed the deal was that Marsha and her team were constantly on the clock, ensuring all the guests had the greatest experience. With over two decades of experience, there’s no other industry titan you want in your back pocket. She is the most experienced one on the market and I would highly recommend her. People first and business second is what I gathered. No matter the hiccup or error that was completely unrelated to her planning (mainly airlines and resort), she jumped on the matter right away and resolved everything immediately.

If you have the chance to do the wedding planner services with Harumi, you must go for it. I couldn’t believe it, but we planned everything out in 90 days. I guarantee you will have a person on demand who serves your vision and needs relentlessly. We had so many backs and forth with vendors and I couldn’t imagine doing this without her help! She listens, acknowledges, and provides multiple solutions and always looks out for the bride and groom first. You’ll need her there for the travel services because wow, that is worth a million words.

If you’re looking for a travel wedding agent, we have done our research in and out and with so many moving parts and factors, you want someone that has done it all. This team will go on to create many more experiences and I truly hope you get the chance to cross paths with them when it comes to yours.

Thank you for working so hard to put together our group’s travel arrangements and accommodations for our wedding in Cabo San Lucas.

You went above and beyond many times to ensure we and our guests were well taken care of, even so far as to arrange last-minute accomodations for my cousin, Tim. And we are so grateful to you, also, for being so attentive and communicative throughout.

We are so happy we chose Marsha and Harumi for our special day. It was one of the best and easiest decisions we made throughout our entire wedding planning.
Marsha: I had a lot of guests coming from different parts of the world and Marsha dealt with them seamlessly and without an issue. She made the travel portion so easy. She also made the airport check in process very special as she sought to all my and my guests’ needs.
Harumi: we couldn’t have asked for a better wedding planner. She made not only my wedding special but the entire week of festivities run so smoothly. She became and confidant, a friend, a shoulder to lean on through hard times and a gracious host to all my guests. She made our day even more special. You cannot go wrong with having her as your wedding planner.

I am so glad I used Marsha Steeves Destination Wedding for my Wedding in Mexico. With Marsha’s knowledge of the resorts and different areas we were able to make an informed decision about which resort would be our best choice for the wedding. Marsha was easy to work with and I felt at ease knowing I had someone from Vancouver that I could call if I had any issues. Marsha got all of our guests booked right away and was able to help out with any needs my guests had. I had multiple guests coming from different provinces and Marsha was able to get them booked as well with no problems. Harumi is very sweet and was efficient at organizing all the wedding details for us. Harumi is very knowledgeable about the resorts and is full of good suggestions for the wedding. The best decision I made about my wedding was bringing Harumi down with me to Mexico. She made sure our wedding vision came true and was on top of everything the whole week. A big thanks to Marsha and Harumi for ensuring our wedding dreams came true!

Wonderful Team made our dream day a reality

Marsha and Harumi did everything possible to ensure our wedding was all we had dreamed of! Harumi took a lot of time and care to help plan every detail with me and go over all my ideas I wanted for the wedding. Marsha is an amazing person with the kindest heart. She flew with us to Cabo and made sure our wedding was nothing short of a fairytale – even getting a huge trampoline removed for us from the site of the wedding by the hotel (it took 30 people to carry it away). Everything they did was over and above our expectations!

I’ve arranged many holidays on my own but when it came to planning our getaway wedding there were just too many concerns and questions.

“I truly don't have a bad thing to say - very professional, very accommodating, excellent customer service and an all around amazing experience for us!”

Mandy & Jared

Marsha and her team looked after our destination wedding in Cabo San Lucas in April.  Marsha and her staff were truly an absolute pleasure to work with.  Marsha really listened to what my husband and I wanted for our wedding and found the perfect hotel that suited our desires and was also an excellent price for our guests.  Her team was so accommodating with all of our guests and their individual requests, and they really went beyond in every possible way.  I had a constant line of communication with Marsha and I knew if I ever had a question or needed to talk to her about something, she was very accessible.
It is very clear that customer satisfaction is of the utmost importance to Marsha and her team.  My husband and I flew down a few days before our guests – when I realized at 3 am that we had an error in my husbands name on the ticket Marsha was texting me back and advising me what to do.  She met us at the airport extra early (5 am!!) to make sure everything got sorted.  Additionally, she greeted all of our guests a few days later to see them off as well!
Although we had some unanticipated issues with management at the actual hotel on the day of our wedding that had absolutely nothing to do with Marsha and her team, she was quick at trying to resolve it once we returned home.   Marsha worked hard and was persistent at getting us some sort of compensation for our troubles.  I truly don’t have a bad thing to say – very professional, very accommodating, excellent customer service and an all around amazing experience for us!  I highly recommend using Marsha Steeves Destination Weddings if you are considering a destination wedding and want things to run smoothly!  Keep up the great work Marsha + team! :)”

You have all been so amazing throughout this whole process and we couldn’t have been happier with everything. The resort was perfect, the weather was perfect and everyone looks forward to going back. They even upgraded us to the presidential suite for 6 nights and the suite was amazing.

Thank you again for everything!

All-in-all we really enjoyed the resort and had a great week.

I just wanted to mention that Harumi was amazing down in Mexico with us. Both Tyler and I were so thankful we brought her down with us, she was such a life saver. She handled everything for us so we had more time to spend with our guests. She was organized and prompt and we couldn’t have been happier to have her down there with us. She is amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone!!!

Thank you again to you, Alleli and Harumi for all the work you did for Tyler and I!! We had a great wedding 🙂

Marsha Steeves Destination Weddings was great to work with when booking our destination wedding. They were timely and organized in getting back to our guests with their inquiries. Alleli was an absolute pleasure to work with. Marsha also met us at the airport the morning of that our group left for our destination, and was incredibly helpful in working out some unforeseen flight changes for some guests due to weather.

We would like to give a very special thank you to Marsha and her team for all their help and hard work in planning of special day in Cabo San Lucas. Even through a couple minor hiccups with date changes along the way the girls did everything in their power to keep me happy and stress free. Upon arrival at the resort we were upgraded to a larger suite, thank you to Marsha’s follow up requests. We had the opportunity to settle in and explore the resort a couple days before our guests arrived and were very impressed. My Husband had never been to Mexico before and the Riu Palace exceeded his expectations. The rooms were big, the views amazing, food was excellent and service was top notch. When our guests arrived they were all pleasantly greeted, check in was quick and easy and we had great feed back on our choice of resort. The wedding itself was amazing! It was perfect, would not have changed a thing. The staff are very confident in what they do and did not disappoint.

We will be in touch to plan our honeymoon soon 🙂

Marsha personally checked in on us throughout the process, even showing up at the airport for 5 a.m. to send us off.

“Harumi accompanied us to Cancun and it was the best decision we ever made.”

Joti & Darren

Moon Palace, Riviera Maya, Mexico
November 2015

Harumi, Marsha, and the whole team were phenomenal! Our big fat Indian wedding was at Moon Palace in Cancun and we ended up having 130 guests. Harumi accompanied us to Cancun and it was the best decision we ever made. I don’t think it would’ve gone as smooth as it did without her. Even though the planners at the resort were wonderful, Harumi knew our style and what we liked so she was able to take care of last minute things for us. Gave us more time to spend with our friends and family during our special week which was invaluable for Darren and I.
Thank you so much for all your hard work and support through the whole process!

Marsha did a fantastic job arranging the travel and accommodation for our wedding in Australia and honeymoon in Thailand. Marsha saved us a lot of time and peace of mind during the stress of organizing an overseas wedding. From Bangkok, to Chang Mai and Koh Samui our accommodation in Thailand was always beautiful. Our private tour guides throughout Thailand were flexible and friendly. While there we enjoyed a mix of great food, relaxation, culture and fun.

All the best,

Hello Marsha and team,

We just wanted to send a note to thank you for all of your help in making our wedding a success. The Moon Palace exceeded the expectations of us and our guests. The wedding department, including our wedding planners, Daniela and Lorena, were fantastic. They are absolute experts at what they do! We wish we knew a year and a half ago that they were so amazing, as it would have taken away a lot of stress. We will certainly recommend a Moon Palace wedding to anyone who asks 🙂

Thank you for all of your help getting our guests from all over the world to the Moon Palace, and for helping smooth out the bumps along the way. Attached are a few pics of the day. Again, thank you so much.
