Bonny planned an extraordinary wedding for my husband and I. Every detail was beautiful and the venue exceptional. My husband and I live in the US, however even if we lived in Aruba we could not have planned our wedding as amazing as Bonny and her team. All of her wedding knowledge, connections with vendors, and experience was extremely valuable in the wedding planning and making a wonderful day. Our wedding will certainly be one we cherish and talk amongst friends and family for a lifetime. We could not thank her enough for making our day so special.

BEST WEDDING EVER!!! Bonny and her staff were AMAZING!

From the minute we initially contacted her to our hugs and good-byes, Bonny was delightful and warm as well as professional. From start to finish she made sure that every detail was covered, and had great suggestions, too. Her photographer, Tammy, did a phenomenal job capturing special moments and as well as posing everyone for great and memorable shots. Reverend Andy did a beautiful job creating a meaningful and touching beach ceremony. And Robbie, the driver, was punctual, fun and engaging. Bonny and her staff did an overall incredible job, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to others who are planning a wedding in beautiful Aruba!

Words can't express how grateful we are for the wonderful work Bonny and her photographer did to make our wedding in Aruba simply superb! She exceeded our expectations, which included things like selecting perfect floral arrangements I'd requested, taking fantastic pictures of us throughout, being attentive to our specific needs, recommending restaurants and so many other things that I could go on and on. Thanks for everything!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Bonny and her team. I instantly had a connection with Bonny when I met her a year earlier before she planned my wedding on Eagle Beach. I actually met a few wedding planners on the island of Aruba and she far exceeded everyone else. She impressed me so much. We went over everything! She was so knowledgeable and she ease any worry I had. Throughout the year of planning my wedding we emailed back-and-forth. She always answered my emails quickly and efficiently. It's so hard as a bride to leave all the details up to someone else but she never let me down, she was on the ball with everything. She had great ideas and wonderful advice. When we flew back to Aruba to get married I met with Bonny the day before my wedding to go over things. Everything was perfectly planned out, she didn't miss a beat, she took care of every detail. My wedding was perfection! Absolutely stunning!! My guests were so impressed as was I. Bonny, her daughter and her team were so professional and such a pleasure to work with. I can't say enough good things about her. If you dream of a beach wedding she will make your dreams come true. I can honestly say there's not one thing I would change about my big day I'm so thankful for her hard work.

Yesterday was perfect for our family.  We were so grateful for the opportunity to renew our vows in front of the kids in such a perfect way.  Your hospitality was great and the photographer and minister were top notch.  It wasn't fancy, but that suits our family perfectly.  Just a private quiet ceremony to celebrate our commitment to each other.  If we don't see the photographer again before the week is out, please extend our warmest gratitude.  She was great and we are so exited to see the final product of the photos. Thank you again.

Violeta and I got married on June 27, 2016 at the Hyatt Aruba. We were fortunate to have Bonny and her team make all the arrangements and preparations, so that we can relax and not have worry about a thing. Bonny was very sweet and spent a lot of time with us to make sure we received the proper attention to go over the various options and considerations for an island wedding. She was always available to talk and provided quick responses. Our wedding was everything we could of asked for and more. Bonny made our dreams come true and thank her for it.

I don't even know where to begin to express my sincere gratitude to Bonny and her team for making our dream wedding a reality. After 10 months of planning we showed up on the day to absolute perfection. Every single detail I had asked for was captured in the most magical way. My sincerest thank you goes out to everyone involved in making our day the most magical and memorable day for Daniel and I and our guests. To our photographer Tania, you made us feel so comfortable from the moment you arrived to the resort and the photos have captured every special moment on our day. Every singly photo is absolutely beautiful. Reverend John delivered a beautiful ceremony exactly how we had envisioned it and again made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met him. Our taxi driver Becky and bus driver Robby were both on point to collect us from the hotel and venue and so beyond friendly. To our florist Shars, you were able to replicate the arrangements I had sent via email exactly as I had asked for, my bouquet and all the flowers were absolutely beautiful. To our baker Francine, all I can say is WOW, what an incredible cake. Not only was it beautifully designed as in the photo I had sent, but the red velvet and vanilla icing was an absolute hit amongst everyone. I could see everyone sneaking in pieces of the cake while we were doing our photos because it was that irresistible. And finally to Bonny and Nathaly, I seriously cannot thank the two of you enough for everything you have done to make our wedding in Aruba the most special day for Daniel and I and our guests. You have an incredible team and we will forever be grateful for making our dream wedding a reality. If you are looking to have your wedding in Aruba, look no further because you will not be disappointed with Aruba Weddings by Bonny.Lots of love always.

Well to start with we got engaged on Christmas day 2014 and having been to Aruba a number of times we decided that it would be the perfect place to get married. So where to begin, after starting to research the requirements I thought that it impossible to complete all the paperwork & legal documentation required. That’s where Bonny comes in, after contacting her she not only walked us through the process but made me feel completely comfortable with our decision. We had about seven months to set up everything so we had no rush, Bonny walked all our paperwork through the court system in Aruba 'this is a major thing trying to accomplish this from outside would be a problem'. When we arrived Bonny & Nathaly met us the following morning I was nervous having only communicated via E-mail to that point, this lasted about 2 seconds they both made us feel like we knew them forever. They both were fun and took us around to the places we would be using. Eagle Beach is awesome, not only a great view but we had baby sea turtles to watch. The best surprise was the place for the civil ceremony, I was thinking that we would have to go to the Aruba DMV or some 'government take a number place'. In Aruba they use a fully restored house that belonged to the islands first dOctoberor, this place is fantastic we have a great love for history & we would pick this place anywhere. The civil was two days later and came-off better than we could of hope for the Government official was very polite & professional the ceremony wonderful. Tania, Bonnys photographer is very friendly you feel that you have known her forever so taking the pictures is fun & comfortable. We did the beach ceremony the following evening at Eagle beach (sunset) Bonny had the beach setup with our flowers, Reverend John talked to us and made us feel completely peaceful. The Wedding was more than beautiful with the sun going down. Bonny had suggested that we use her friend Becky to drive us to & from our hotel this worked out well we did not have to rush for anything. Bottom line this is the fairy tail wedding that you always hear about. My Wife & I would suggest that if a island wedding is something that you are interested in that Bonny & Nathaly are the only ones to take care of all the details legal and other.Thank you once again.

If you are looking for a wedding planner in Aruba, look no further. We chose Bonny after doing some in depth on-line research and reading her testimonials, and we are so glad we did. Organizing a destination wedding long distance is a daunting task, but Bonny was responsive throughout...answering our questions promptly, following up when promised, working with the Tropicana where we were staying, all to make sure everything was perfect. Our special day was so incredible ...everything we had hoped and imagined it would be. We chose a civil ceremony so we could officially be married in Aruba, followed by a beach ceremony which was flawless. Thank you Bonny for making our dream wedding a reality.
