Cant even begin to explain how perfect it was – the ceremony was absolutely great – you were right no need for a rehearsal, and we both found it flowed really well etc
Few people commented that “you would never have know I wasn’t a real wedding”…clearly we werent trying to hide it from anyone, everyone knew – but was good that it felt just like the real thing
Thanks so much again we had a great day

Hi Melanie ,
Stephen and I would just like to say “A really big thank you” for making our wedding day the best!
We are so glad we found you, and the vows you wrote for us were perfect. Everyone said it was a beautiful ceremony all thanks to you, not to mention everything else you did for us. It was lovely to meet you.
Kind regards

We cannot thank you enough for your help planning our wedding. Everything went exactly as planned! Our friends and family have been amazed that we were able to plan a wedding in another country, and that everything worked out so well.
We really appreciate the way that you were able to incorporate the ideas we had for the wedding, and suggest things we might have forgotten. We truly appreciate all of the time you spent making sure the details of our ceremony were all in place.
Thank you for being such a big part of our special day!
Best Regards,
Natalie and Jorge

We are delighted that we decided to use your services for part of our wedding planning.
We were definately satisfied with the services you provided for us. We
really appreciated how efficient you were with everything. We knew we
could completely trust and rely on you and that was a great feeling
when we were at times frustrated dealing with Portuguese suppliers who were not always efficient and had a very different response time.
We really had a great day. Everything went so well. To start with
Raquel did a great job on our hair on the morning of the wedding.
Myself and my mum and sisters got a lot of compliments, which was
nice! Raquel was also very nice and patient playing with my 2 yr old
niece when we were getting ready.
The ceremony was one of my favourite parts of the whole day. It was
very moving for us. We loved working with Andreas. He did a brilliant
job and all of our guests thought he was great. Please send him our
regards.
We truly had a wonderful day. The staff at the Pousada
de Sao Filipe were excellent and it was the perfect venue for us.
We’ll never forget it. Thank you again for everything.
Tina & Conor – July 2010 | Wedding Celebration – Setubal
I would like to express my thanks for helping us organise our wedding.
It really helped to know that we had someone who could do all the calling around and price checking for us.
Roo was absolutely fabulous as our co-ordinator, and helped us out immensely by lending an extra pair of hands in decorating the church and organising the decorations in our reception.
At the event, Roo was on hand but unobtrusive, I felt that everything was totally under control, and I had no worries – exactly how a bride should feel.
My husband and I had a perfect day!

We did enjoy our wedding day to the fullest. Everything was so beautiful and we can’t thank you enough for helping us organize everything. It was great to finally meet you.
We were extremely happy with your service; all our expectations were exceeded! Your patience, suggestions/recommendations and tireless efforts in making our wedding day so special were truly appreciated. You were an extremely valuable liaison with our vendors and helped make the day run so smoothly.
It was a pleasure working with you. I would definitely recommend your services to any newly-weds-to-be.
Thank you so much! We wish you all the best!

“Hi Melanie, I would like to thank you and Berndt for helping us make our day so special. Everything was beautiful and Berndt did a wonderful job, we really liked him. I wish your company all the best and our day would not have been the same without your help!”
Alexandra & Aidan, September 2009 | Wedding Celebration Ceremony – Evora
“Planning a wedding in Portugal wouldn’t have been possible without Melanie Reeg. Language barriers not withstanding she was professional, efficient, responsive and excellent to deal with. She halved our stress levels by taking on all the fiddly jobs and finding solutions to all our requests. From the very first email and phone call with her our lives were immediately easier and our wedding was everything we wished for, at a very reasonable price.
She managed all of our logistics and various musicians & entertainers, organised all of our transport and even found amazing stilt-walkers for us! From the moment she arrived on our wedding day, we knew we could just switch off and enjoy the day, having spoken to so many people who didn’t have a co-ordinator or had a bad experience with one, we’re just so grateful to her for making our day everything we wanted and more. We’re just sorry we didn’t get her involved earlier!”
Aoife & Dave – September 2009 | Catholic Wedding – Gradil/Mafra

“…Well we are back in Dublin now after a fantastic two weeks in Portugal. The wedding was absolutely amazing, no hitches at all. Zoran and the singer were brilliant, the flowers were beautiful and as for the Fortaleza just spectacular, this wedding will be talked about for along time.
We had an absolutely brilliant day, all worked out ok with the priest and he was really good. The setting of the Fortaleza was amazing, food was delicious, weather amazing. The cake was lovely, we put the 3 bouquets around it for pictures. Music, photographer, dj all brilliant. The dj had a great time with us all, very accomodating regarding music as guests were requesting some songs. I haven’t one bad thing to say at all Melanie just thanks a mill for all your help. I would do it again in a heartbeat so would highly recommend you to anyone getting married and everything you organised for us was excellent.”
