RUN from EVA, the "wedding planner NOT". Once you have plunked down your $3,000. reaching her becomes next to impossible. E-mails go unanswered, her phone gets put on Robot mode, text messages are ignored. We even drove down to her hair salon trying desperately to reach her. In her profession, planning is the key. Planners are in regular communication with their clients, have a mutually agreed upon plan and (especially if outdoors), contingency plans for weather, tides, crowds, etc. Eva does NOT! After making a trip to our wedding location, two weeks before the wedding we tried to reach her to plan or suggest an alternate, less crowded area. When we finally made contact, good news, Eva actually had us on her schedule for the correct date! However, she had us scheduled for wrong time (4:00 p.m. in lieu of 11:00 a.m.) at the wrong location 20 miles north! Our concerns were confirmed. When we suggested an alternate location, the answer was a "hard No"! After that, Eva went dark again (not responsive to calls, texts, etc.)!! Not until almost 13 hours before the wedding did she suggested that our guests arrive 3-4 hours early to make sure they could secure nearby parking and "hang out" and enjoy the beach prior to the ceremony. Can you imagine our elderly guests all dressed up for a wedding, out on the beach for several hours, sweating to death, watching her set up? This is when we knew we were on our own. We had 13 hours to scramble, put a wedding together on the beach (at our condo), finding someone to perform the service, set up chairs, make an altar, notify all the guests of the change... We got it done without any assistance whatsoever from Eva. On an end note, Eva has received negative reviews before and has posted rebuttals denying any wrongdoing. We expect her to do the same here. Ask yourself, "Why take a chance on having your child's special day ruined by this woman?" There are plenty of other planners in the area, why risk it? We highly suggest you RUN, RUN, RUN form Eva, the Wedding Planner, NOT!!! read more

Eva puts together great ceremonies and decorations. The bad reviews do not reflect her business. The photos speak for themselves. Yelp needs to revamp their site because it seems once you don't pay for their ads, they bump the bad reviews to the top. Eva makes getting married on the beach affordable but also valuable. read more

this company is complete trash. My mother-in-laws wedding was supposed to be on the beach but because of the weather, we had to do it in another room where the reception was held. I was helping the bride and groom try to fix everything that Eva dropped the ball on including finding a backup plan for the ceremony. My wife called Eva the day before the wedding to make sure everything was still going as planned and was told that she didn't know and wouldn't know till she was done hanging out on the beach. Eva called the groom at 7:00 am the day of the wedding to tell him that he needed to find a new location for the wedding. After the ceremony, she rushed everyone out so the wedding party could take pictures but never told the guests where to go, so they all scattered to different bars in the hotel waiting for someone to tell them where to go. What a waste of money. read more

Starting off, I have to say that I have never written a bad review on any establishment. But what Eva did to my sister's wedding was horrendous and should be known. April 21 2018 there were 30 guests, all from out of the state, that flew to Florida to attend what we thought would be a beautiful wedding. Instead, it turned out to be a nightmare for the bride and groom. The wedding ceremony was supposed to start at 1130 a.m. Eva showed up 4 HOURS LATE for the wedding. The night before the bride had confirmed with Eva and got a confirmation that everything was good to go and would meet up at 1030 am, an hour before the wedding. Eva never showed up and when the bride text her, Eva said she had the times mixed up and wouldn't be able to show up until 230 PM. The bride resent the text confirmation, circled in red to her, but Eva had nothing to say. Barely an apology. With guests waiting at the location, everyone had to relocate to a restaurant to wait for Eva and the photographer. For 3 hours. The bride and groom had to see each other before the ceremony, which was unfortunate, but everyone made the best of it. Eva ends up showing up close to 3 pm, in a tank top, shorts and flip flops WITHOUT any chairs, small decorations or the awning that the bride and groom had paid for. Just a small table, is all she showed up with. And she didn't even apologize. Just giggled nervously when the brides mother told her how upsetting the situation was. With 30 guests and no chairs, we all stood scattered around the couple as they took their vows. I could go on but this is what took place and Eva was so rude to my sister when she asked for a refund and she had to keep contacting Eva about it. Eva offered no apology and barely any compensation. She actually tried to play the victim. She also sent back the wedding pictures without any touch ups like she had promised, so the wedding pictures look like any regular pictures you print out at CVS. If you read other reviews on here, Eva has the nerve to call one unhappy bride a "bridezilla" so that in itself can give you some insight on how unprofessional this woman. This is no way to run a business. Please be aware of this wedding planner before booking your wedding. We all felt so bad for my sister, but we made the best of it and the reception spot her family chose for her was beautiful, which made up for the nightmare Eva put my sister and everyone else through. read more
