We wanted to thank you for all of your help in planning our vow renewal
for our 10th Anniversary that took place on July 15, 2009 at Magens Bay in
St. Thomas.
From the moment we spoke on the phone you were extremely helpful and
courteous.
You listened to what we were looking to do and worked with us to stay within
a tight budget.
Although this was last minute planning (3 weeks prior to the event), you
were able to work out a ceremony that we could afford and catered to our
wishes.
I had spoken with various other planners and photographers
independently but felt very comfortable with you. Your suggestions for time
and location were perfect. My advice to those considering a destination
wedding or vow renewal is to listen to the coordinators they really do know
best. You took all of the worry out and the vow renew went smoothly. We
just can't thank you enough!
After speaking with you we decided to have someone officiate rather then
doing it on our own.
This was a great suggestion. Our Minister did a beautiful ceremony. Prior to
doing our vow renewal he spoke with us and included things we shared.
We felt like he knew us and
that he truly cared. If I had to
do it all over again I would recommend this type of ceremony for the fist
timers and of course as a vow renewal. The ceremony was centered around the
couple as the breeze brushed by and the waves kiss the sand at you feet. It
really does allow you to surrender to the romance as you say on your home
page. The ceremony is simple and allows you to be in the moment as it is
about you without all the stress.
The photographer did a spectacular job with the pictures. We are so
pleased, we feel that he captured us in a natural setting without posing us.
He captured the true essence of the emotions, love, and joy that we shared.
He was personable and surpassed our desires. We were so excited to see the
pictures and are elated with how they turned out. We have gotten so many
great comments from family and friends that they felt like they were there
with us by looking at the pictures. They're simply stunning, just as
the morning was that we renewed our vows. Overall, I rate Weddings the Island Way as a %110. We can not express
our gratitude and thanks enough for a beautiful, personal, and cherished vow
renewal that we have absolutely wonderful pictures to share our story with
those close to us. Our only regret is that we wish we would have done a
video too. We truly cherish what a memorable
event our renewal of our wedding vows was for our 10th Anniversary at Magens
Bay; with all your help, it was perfect for us.
Sincerely, Evonne and Scott Blocker - PA
We just wanted to drop you a note to say THANK YOU for all your help with the wedding. You made everything painless and worry free for me, which is exactly what I wanted.. We had such a good time at our wedding and the dinner afterward at Room with a View.
Weddings the Island Way far exceeded my expectations in every way and I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone wanting to get married on beautiful St. Thomas!
We received the marriage certificate and the CD of all the pictures. I've distributed the pictures to everyone in my family and they all say the same thing....they are absolutely beautiful! The wedding pictures were very important to us and we couldn't be more pleased with them. Don did a really great job so please pass this onto him as well.
Missing St. Thomas already,
Matt and Kara Muscolo
When I think back to our wedding, there isn't one bad thing that comes to mind. We planned everything through Weddings the Island Way. The entire year and a half of planning with them went so smoothly. My e-mails or phone calls were immediately returned, they had ideas that I hadn't thought of, and always answered all of my many questions.
On the day of the wedding, I had the entire day planned out in my mind. I could only achieve this with WTIW's help, as I knew well in advance what time, what place, and how everthing was going to happen. It went so perfectly as we had two wonderful coordinators looking after everything. There was nothing left for my husband and I to even stress about, it was great! Our minds were empty, able to focus on more important things, like enjoying our day. This could only happen as we didn't have to worry about the typical stresses of a wedding - the DJ, the cake, guest arrangements, etc. My husband and I have only great things to say about WTIW. The vendors they used were amazing - the video turned out fantastic, our photographer was beyond amazing, the steel drum music was just perfect, and our guests were transported around with ease.
Regards,
Matt & Christina
I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to you and everyone else that made our day so wonderful! Everything was perfect and better than I had ever imagined. It was great to meet you and your awesome team! Please give our love and thanks to Jeff, Todd and Bridget. Meeting all of you made the experience even more amazing.We received our pictures this morning and it was a beautiful reminder of our special day. Thanks for everything!
Hannah & Paul
Dear Angela and Tina,
We wanted to thank you both again for helping us to put together our dream wedding in St. Thomas! Every time we look at the pictures and think about that day, we are filled with happiness! Every detail was perfect, from the flowers to the wonderful minister to the cake...exactly what you promised and exactly what we hoped for.
Thank you so much!
Sincerely, Scott and Sandy Potter
We still have smiles on our faces when we think back to our wedding day at Magens Bay. Thank you for making everything run so smoothly. You even got the rain to cooperate with you that day! We found your services to be extremely helpful during the planning stages and your professionalism earn 5 stars! We are very happy to have had Weddings the Island Way create such wonderful memories for us.
Sincerely yours,
David & Amy
Five years ago today, you folks helped me secure the prettiest girl in the world. And five years later we celebrate our union and thank you sincerely for the wonderful work you put into our ceremony. While it did rain that day, Tina exhibited great patience and inventiveness to allow a break in the clouds and secure a beautiful site for the nuptials. With each passing year we always reflect on how special you made our day.
Thanks once more, Barth and Rebecca Mulford
Our wedding day was PERFECT! We wanted the day to be about our love and not a lot of fuss. It was simple, elegant and fun; exactly what we wanted. The minister did an amazing job and made us so comfortable. The photographer was exceptional. We have the most beautiful pictures to remember the day. But the best part was that Weddings the Island Way made it so simple! Tina handled everything down to the smallest of details. It couldn’t have gone smoother. We will cherish our wedding day for the rest of our lives and look back on the experience as a wonderful one. We would recommend Weddings the Island Way to anyone who wants the focus of their special day to be Happiness and Beauty instead of chaos and commotion. Everything was beautiful and we loved it all!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
Philip and Tiffany
We couldn't be happier with the leap of faith we took in booking Weddings the
Island Way off the internet. They were very professional, helpful and
everything went exactly as their website suggested it would.
We were thrilled with everything--from the way they set up the wedding site on
the beach, to the cake, the video and the photos--it was all done so well. There
were no surprises and things went very smoothly.
Additionally, after the wedding they have continued to be helpful and prompt
in assisting with questions that we have had involving the marriage
certificate and photos. We would gladly recommend them and answer any
questions that any potential clients may have.
Eric & Kennetha Klein-Iowa
Thank you, Weddings the Island Way, for making our wedding unforgettable. We couldn't have dreamt of a more perfect day! Magens Bay is truly one of the most beautiful places that we have ever seen. We were so impressed with everyone on your team, from the coordinators to the minister, the photographer and videographer. Our pictures and video are phenomenal but they don't compare to our experience in St. Thomas. We can't thank you enough for all that you have done for us. What a way for us to begin our new life together!
Joe & Ashley
On behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Brandon Foster, I wanted to say thank you. Everything from the very beginning was handled flawlessly. The pictures of Magen's Bay--although wonderful--pale in comparison to seeing it in person. It was absolutely gorgeous. Thank you to the minister for a beautiful ceremony and great disposition. Thank you to the photographer for excellent pictures and having a great personality. Thank you Tina for getting us where we needed to go and explaining some of the local customs and Island charm, as well as making reservations for us at the restaurant. You made us feel as though we were family and we truly appreciate that. In closing, thank you to all of you who took care of all the details that truly made our nuptials worry free. I would recommend you to anyone looking forward to getting married in a tropical paradise such as St. Thomas. With the Weddings the Island Way, a common island phrase "No worries" truly applies. I am already looking forward to next year where we may find ourselves sailing into St. Thomas on a trade wind breeze to celebrate our first anniversary.
Brandon and Nicole
I wanted to take some time to write about how happy we are for all you did for our wedding last week! We are so excited that we had such a magical wedding on Magens Bay! It was wonderful and special and we will never forget all you did for us. You are a very sweet woman and I have enjoyed working with you to create a perfect setting for us to begin our life together. Everyone of our nearly 40 guests at the wedding complimented your company. A few even told me personally that when they marry, their children marry or they renew their vows they want to do it just like we did. I will tell anyone who gets married in the future about your services. You are kind and patient and did an excellent job for our large group. Thank you very much for everything you've done!
We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day or location for our wedding and Weddings the Island Way made it even better. We decided on a cruise for our wedding trip and the idea of a beach wedding in Magen’s Bay on St. Thomas. We contacted Weddings the Island Way to handle the wedding ceremony for the short time we were in port. From the beginning, you were very professional and very quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. Everyone made us feel special, important and that our wedding was the event of the day. One main comment from friends and family regarding our wedding photos is “you look so happy and in love”. We credit Weddings the Island Way for the stress-free management of the ceremony allowing our wedding pictures to really reflect our joy, happiness and carefree feeling of the day. Thanks for the incredible memories!
Chris & Jerri
I just wanted to write a brief note to personally thank you for making our wedding a wonderful experience. Everything went smoothly and you were very patient in answering all of my questions in anticipation of the big day.
Also, our pictures are amazing! We have had so many friends and family tell us that they have never seen more beautiful wedding pictures! Please let our photographer know that he did a terrific job. We could not be more pleased with everything!
Thanks again,
Lindell & April
We were extremely happy with the service you provided to us. You was very personable, easy-going, went along well with surprises we didn't expect. Everything was absolutely perfect, from the photography, to the minister, you even planned the perfect weather! (Not sure HOW you did that!)
We had a dream wedding...thanks to Weddings the Island Way! We will also be more than happy to have any future couples email us for our endorsement of your services!
Dave & Rachel
First, I want to thank you for planning our perfect wedding in St. Thomas. The wedding was beautiful and we were very pleased with all the accommodations.
Everyone at Weddings the Island Way was personable and helpful in every way. The minister, Jeff, did a fabulous job with the ceremony.
Many of our guests commented about what a great job Jeff did performing the ceremony. The photos are great also.
Thank you and your team for creating an amazing wedding day that we and our guests will never forget!

I want to thank you again for making our wedding on Lil Hans Lollick Island so perfect...The floral arrangement was simply fabulous. The Pina Colada Wedding Cake was the best cake that I have ever had! All of our friends told us that this was the absolutely the best wedding that they have ever seen...Tina simply said that I had nothing to worry about and all we would have to do was to show up. Words cannot adequately describe how Weddings The Island Way treated us. We were treated as if we were family. Please let any of your future bride and grooms know that they can contact us and we will be happy to describe our experiences with them.
