Siesta Key Wedding Planners Florida

Sun Weddings is FABULOUS!! I originally met with Tina and did some preliminaries. She knew all the best sites for me to visit and knew all the right people for me to see. They recommend the perfect florist and bakery.
Everything was very smooth. Sigrid picked right up, and contacted all the vendors, got balances due, and educated me on how things should proceed. She was there for rehearsal and kept us all calm and in the know!
We are a crazy mix of latinos from different countries and she handled us with charm, grace and humor, while keeping us all on schedule! The wedding went off without a hitch, and Sigrid once again kept us all calm and on schedule. She was more than excellent! She stayed by my side when needed, and faded into the back when the time was right. She had all my gifts to my bridal suite like magic. It was absolutely perfect. I can't not say enough about Sun Weddings! The pricing is excellent, they are extremely knowledgeable and they will exceed your expectations :) Many, many heartfelt thanks to Tina & Sigrid <3

When we decided that we wanted to have a destination wedding in Florida, we searched online to determine our options. Of all the wedding planners that we came across, Sun Weddings stood out the most. We were drawn in because of their well put together website and amazing photos, and that they were family operated. They were also within our budget and appeared to have pricing that was comparable to other planners. After meeting with Tina for the first time, we knew we had made the right choice. She was professional but also made us feel like family, we were instantly comfortable and felt like we were in good hands. In the year that we spent planning for our wedding, Tina and Sigrid were amazing, they guided us through everything and were available every time we had questions, we always had a response from them right away. They were familiar with so many resources and vendors in the area and were able to give us great referrals to fit our planning needs. When it came time for our wedding and the weather refused to cooperate, Sun Weddings was one step ahead and had already ensured that there was a plan B in place, we didn't have to worry about a thing! Even though we didn't get to have our wedding on the beach, the indoor space they prepared was beautiful! They made sure everything was perfect and that everything flowed smoothly. They made sure all of our vendors and everyone involved was on the same page. Cristina was equally as amazing as our photographer, she even went out of her way to make sure we had beach photos after our beach wedding was moved inside, meeting us on another day. They took care of the processing of our marriage certificate and provided us with the official copy and several certified copies within two days. We were also able to get our photos back before we left Florida, and they were amazing! We cannot say enough wonderful things about Sun Weddings and would highly recommend them!

When I first decided to do a destination wedding, I was a little nervous about having to hire people that I wouldn't be able to meet ahead of time, so I put my full trust in wedding website reviews. After reading about Sun Weddings, I knew they would be a good choice. I found everything that others said to be absolutely true. They respond very quickly and thoroughly to all inquiries and took the worry out of everything for me. When we decided to change the time of my ceremony on the day before the wedding, they contacted all of my vendors for me and made sure everyone was on the same page. I couldn't imagine my wedding going any better with anyone else. Thanks ladies!

Sigrid and Tina are true professionals. They found me the perfect vendors for our 36 year Wedding Renewal. They were there to calm me down when the weather did not cooperate and were always available to answer any questions that I had. I have had wedding planners for my four children's weddings and they did not compare to Sigrid and Tina. They were devoted to every single detail. I truly could not have had the beautiful renewal if it were not for them. They are a great mother/daughter team. You could look anywhere and pay any price and would never find anyone that can make your event just what you want ... and more. Thank you Sigrid and Tina - it has been an honor working with you!!! Miss you!!

Sun Weddings did an such an amazing job, everything was set up so beautifully I could not have asked for a better wedding than what these ladies gave to me. It literally took my breathe away as I was walking down the aisle. They are always there for you, they respond quickly to every question whether it be email or text or phone call. And most of all they make the BRIDE comfortable that everything is going to be ok and just enjoy your day, and they did just that. I wish I had another occasion to have them help me with :-)

We where married on the beach in Venice, FL on Dec 27, 2012. Sun Weddings help us organize our wedding and they were wonderful!!! We had a very small wedding but Tina and Sigrid never treated it like it was no big deal. The set up was beautiful and everything was perfect. Special thanks to Pastor Scott, he was great. I would recommend Sun Weddings to anyone thinking about a destination wedding in Florida. Thank you so much for making our day so special.

I cannot express enough how special Tina and the Sun Weddings team made my day!! I was petrified to engage in business strictly over email, texting and phone. I took a leap of faith after reading the reviews on the site, and decided to have the Sun Wedding team plan my perfect day! And did they ever!!! I never once felt like a stranger, and as it was just us eloping, I found it comforting to know that Tina, Christina and the rest of my adopted family were there for me!! Tina is the most attentive person I have ever met and even when I was hysterical at the airport due to flight delays and such, she was the ONLY person who could calm me down and get me through my panic! Thank you Tina!! I would be remiss if I didn't mention Christina!! She is incredible and my pictures came out absolutely beautiful! She spent so much time with us and made us feel so comfortable! If you are looking for event planning...this is your team! Look no further...you have found yourself an amazing venue with amazing people who treat you like family!! I really cannot thank you all enough!

Thank you for always!

We hope things are well with all of you!  We look back at our pictures and think what a beautiful job all of you did to make our day so special J  You are all amazing!!
We just celebrated our first anniversary on the 7th, we can’t believe it has been a year already.  We were going to try and come back for our anniversary, but maybe next year and we will be sure to call you for a glass of wine!

Tina and the Sun Weddings Team are the best you will find. Working for The Walt Disney Company for many years has taught me to recognize great customer service or often times poor customer service. The Sun Weddings Team delivers amazing service. If you are the bride who wants to plan every detail and ask a ton of questions, they will respond immediately and make things happen. If you are the bride who only wants to consult on a few items, they will create an amazing event for you based on your initial conversations.
After my first conversations with Tina and The Sun Weddings Team, I knew I had made the right decision choosing them to plan my special day, however what I didn't know then was that I had made lifelong friends.

My now husband and I live in central Indiana but we decided to get married in Florida. I did all my research and planning online and Sun Weddings was very good at email correspondence. They were very flexible with the package details and even offered to switch our venue site the day before the wedding (had we wanted to). I would definitely use Sun Weddings again (only this time, for a vow renewal ceremony instead of a wedding). Thank you so much Sun Weddings for making our special day so beautiful!

Thanks to the team at Sun Weddings our special day was amazing and one we will remember for the rest of our lives.
The organization was akin to a military campaign but at no point were we made to feel uncomfortable even when the pressure mounted.
They were very personable and all of our worries were taken away by their absolute professionalism.
Thank-you for giving us such great memories of our wedding day.

The Sun Weddings team were a dream come true to me. I live out of state and was worried about planning a destination wedding. Sigrid and Tina not only helped me plan, but made me feel so comfortable and calm about the entire process. They feel like family after 5 minutes of meeting them. I couldn't be happier with the wedding experience I had with them, and plan on renewing our vows just for the opportunity to work with them again. I would highly recommend them to everyone! I promise you will NOT be disappointed. They made all our wedding dreams come true. : )

Hi Tina!
Now, that I have settled in and adjusting to married life, I wanted to take a moment and say thank you to you and your mom so very much for your professionalism, outstanding customer service, but most importantly making our wedding day dreams come true! You and your mom were AWESOME!!! I couldn't ask for a better team! Sun Weddings made everything perfect!
From our first encounter I felt that Eric and I were in good hands! You all made us feel very comfortable with your ability to coordinate a wedding! You answered all our questions, responded expeditiously to our emails and phone calls! On our special day you all were wonderful! Our guests were very impressed and gave many many compliments to your business.
Words can not express my gratitude for your ideas, suggestions, planning and implementation! I felt like a queen through our entire journey of planning the wedding and our wedding day! It was just magical and I get teary eyed every time I think of our special day. Eric and I are so grateful for everything you all did for us! We thank God for you all and pray continued success for your company!!
We highly recommend your services to anyone getting married in the Florida area! We were married in Sarasota, Florida and it was the most beautiful day a bride could dream of!
Thank you and blessings,

We were planning our wedding that was held in Sarasota, FL but we live in Idaho. So immediately we knew that we would need to hire a wedding planner. We spoke with Tina then decided to go with a different planner instead. Well that was a HUGE mistake, it all fell apart about a month or two before our wedding. So in a tizzy I called Tina to see if there was anything she could do to help. Right away it was no problem, she got off the phone with me, and in 15 mins had called me back to let me know she had locked down our ceremony site and that all would be fine. Then our photographer fell through for personal reasons. Not only did Tina and her team find a new photographer (Cristina who is apart of the Sun Weddings team and took gorgeous photos... I just love them!) but Tina let me cry and scream about the personal issues in my life and gave me her always helpful and listening ear. This is obviously not her job as my wedding planner, but it didn't matter to Tina, she was there! The day we were supposed to get our wedding license (a day before our wedding) we were running late because of traffic. Tina directed us to her office. Then we followed her to the court house. She knew everyone there so we didn't have to wait around for anything, they just got right threw before they closed. Hey it helps to know people, right? On our wedding day the beach parking lot was packed, so she had my guests pull to the curb and one of her team members parked cars so everyone would be to the ceremony on time. The ceremony was PERFECT and GORGEOUS. It's hard to put your trust in someone halfway across the country, but it was never hard with Sun Weddings they always made us feel comfortable. In 5 years we plan to go back to Florida and renew our vows. Florida Sun Weddings will be the first team we call to help us make it magical AGAIN! Thank you Tina, Sigird, Cristina! Idaho loves you all!

Tina, Cristina, and Sigrid:
 
Now that we are back in Ohio and Anne and Andrew are on their honeymoon, I have a moment to reflect and process the past week.  As the mother of the bride, I just want to thank you all for your help and services in planning the wedding this past week-end at Venice Beach.  You made having a destination wedding doable and removed the stress!  The setting was lovely, as we knew it would be, but having all of your recommendations for music, flowers, hair, cake, photographer, and reception was well worth the money.  You steered us in the right direction and we were totally happy with EVERYTHING!  We were especially pleased with Scott (the officiant) and his attention to the actual wedding ceremony itself; his words of encouragement to the bride and groom were “right on.”  Pelican Point was a beautiful place for the wedding dinner and their consideration to our needs was over-the-top, not to mention the delicious food. 
Tina, thanks for taking all of our calls this past month and answering many questions.  Cristina, thanks for your calm, cool, and collected demeanor on the day of the wedding; you directed each and every person and had us where we needed to be.  Sun Weddings is TOP KNOTCH and we are grateful to all of you.
With kindest regards and many thanks,
Christa A. Beach (mother of the bride)

Tina with Sun Weddings did a fabulous job from answering all of my MANY questions, to the set up of our special day which was absolutely beautiful! The Officiate performed a beautiful ceremony and had a great personality. Our wedding was set up on Venice Beach and this was THE PERFECT beach for a quite wedding setting on a beautiful white-sand beach. The ceremony was right up on the water and the walking distance from parking lot to wedding site was perfect! Wedding coordinator Tina was very accommodating to our special request for the sand ceremony which was just amazing in itself..... Photographer Cristina did an amazing job with capturing our special day and took so many pictures, and all were great!!!!! I can't express enough how glad I am that I picked this organization to handle my special day..... They were very prompt in getting our marriage license filed and our photo CD was in our possession within days of our wedding day..............

I dealt with miss Tina from the first phone call to the actual wedding, and keep in mind, it was all within 8 weeks. They not only worked with Jen and I on a date that worked out but financially we felt comfortable using her. She was actually the one who organized my best friends wedding 6 years ago!!! Wouldn't have had it any other way. Thx Tina!!!

Hi Tina,
I think we are all still floating on cloud nine! We had such a remarkable experience and it all started with you and Sun Weddings!  We would never have had such a beautiful event had it not been for your team. You really have gathered the best of the best when it comes to all the different vendors. Tibor's photography is amazing.  Amy feels as if he really captured the day in a story form. He made her feel so comfortable too. 
I can see why you feel so strongly about Mattison's.  They are superb!  Everyone raved about the food and service.  They were good in every way imaginable.  I spent all my time communicating with Sally who was terrific.  
Tina, we cannot thank you enough for giving us all the right steps to take. Scott was amazing too and Amy was just so pleased about how everything went so smoothly.  She felt as if her wedding day was perfect.  What more could a mother want for her daughter.  Thank you from the bottom of our heart from our first phone call to May 10th!  
Loads of love,

Jacque (mother of bride)

Tina and Sigrid from Sun Weddings were absolutely fabulous from start to finish. They were a stunning example of professionalism and made the whole process fun for me. I am extremely detail oriented and was concerned that I might expect too much from my wedding vendors. I was pleasantly surprised when Tina and Sigrid were able to take over all the details and just let me lead them in the right direction during our initial discussions to the point where I didn't have to worry about anything on my wedding day. They kept everything on schedule and running smoothly while coordinating with many other vendors and our reception site. They are truly amazing and I loved working with them. For any bride who is unsure of hiring a planner, they are worth every penny! To be honest, as perfect as they were, I would have paid double after getting the experience I did. I very highly recommend!

I just wanted to let you know how wonderful Tina @ Florida Sun Weddings was during the entire planning process & event of making our wedding day absolutely perfect on Siesta Key Beach! Tina was very quick to respond to all of my questions & concerns & she had very timely follow up. During the entire event planning process she was patient, kind, dependable & she made sure that everything came together on our wedding day as planned.
All of her vendor recommendations were absolutely fabulous & I would highly recommend her & her team’s services to everyone!

Hi Tina, 
THANK YOU THANK YOU sooooooo much for everything that you all did, truly amazing team! You are such a wonderful leader as well, it all looked so beautiful, I could not have asked for more. Except maybe a little longer for no rain, lol. I am so happy you got me out the door, or we would not have had the time to get as many pictures as we did. I enjoyed every moment of it all as well as our honeymoon. If I ever move back to the coast and need another partner, I just might have to reach out, as I was so impressed and miss the event side of everything I use to do in radio. The wedding really brought it back and getting to marry the man of my dream in the middle of it all :)  Be sure to keep in touch, and once I get all settled with work, I plan to add my pictures to a couple wedding websites and as long as you approve of us including you all, I will be sure to share what great work you all do!! 
THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Xo

Our daughter was married on Lido Beach in April and we are so glad that we chose Sun Weddings as our long distance wedding planner! Tina's prompt response to any phone calls or emails concerning arrangements was amazing! We even had a last minute change the day of the wedding, but thanks to Sun Weddings, everything was still perfect. You can tell that Tina and Sigrid love what they do - I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a professional, organized, and caring wedding planner!

Tina,
You are amazing.... At your job, but most importantly as a woman! Right from the start, that very first phone call, we knew you were going to help make our wedding exactly what we dreamed of. I still remember that call. Not only were we getting the A-team wedding team but gaining a forever friend. Jeff and I became so close with you, and you made EVERY SINGLE request possible, no matter what! I still believe in my head that we had this amazing connection and you knew exactly what we wanted at all times, but in reality it's just that you are so good at your job!! 
I will never forget seeing you at Bonefish, the anticipation of finally meeting you was great, and there stood our Beautiful wedding coordinator! Thank you for making Jeff and I feel so special...
Our wedding day was more than we ever dreamed of... It was pure perfection. Thank you for making our day as smooth as possible, even with some of my crazy family :) 
Christina - you are a little beauty, and for being so little, you can definitely get in there and get the job done and we thank you for that! You guys truly work as a TEAM! 
Here comes my only regret, I never met Mark... I heard he was "the guy with the hat on" who set things up. Mark, it would have been a pleasure and honor to shake your hand or give you a hug. Thank you for helping to make our day amazing. 
Tina...this is not goodbye, it's only "see you soon" because that we will do! Until then, may God bless you all and may you continue to make other couples’ dreams come true, as you did for us! 
XOXO, Nina & Jeff Nelson

“THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING TO GIVE US THE BEST WEDDING EVER!!!”
Everything was so perfect. Your experience, professionalism and confidence was able to help me put my worries at ease and allow me to let you all make our wedding day great. I’ve been referring to the wedding as my “fairy-tale” wedding, because it was even more beautiful than I ever dreamed.
Also, the pictures were great. Christina did a super-fantastic job. We’ve received so many compliments. Lastly, but certainly not least, is Pastor Scott…his wit surely kept the crowd entertained. It was a pleasure to have him officiate our wedding ceremony.
You all are great!
Take a look at the slideshow I created on YouTube with the pictures Christina captured. I hope it’s okay that I mentioned the Sun Weddings website…everyone was asking.

Sigrid and Tina were a fabulous team. From day one of hiring them they quickly responded to emails to help answer my questions or suggest vendors. They simply offered suggestions on which they know best but were not too pushy if I went in another direction. Starting a few weeks before the wedding they created a timeline of events and modified as I felt comfortable. They starting contacting all my vendors and set up a schedule with them as well. The day of the wedding they kept everyone in line and organized everything. I didn’t have to worry where any of my vendors were, they worried for me. The day was so easy and smooth with them.

Tina and the Sun Weddings Team were such a pleasure to work with! I truly give them a 5 star rating. I'm big on communication and was thoroughly impressed at the response times whenever I had questions or concerns. When we initially were searching for a wedding planner to assist us with our beach wedding we called many different vendors. Sun Weddings wasn't the cheapest we found, however, we felt after speaking with them that they were more professional and organized than others we had spoken to. Their services were worth every penny we paid!!! From the beginning, Tina and her team presented themselves in a very professional manner. We could tell they took their jobs seriously and were determined to make our special day very special!

Dear Tina and the Sun Weddings staff,
Planning a wedding across two time zones has its own set of challenges, but thanks to you and your staff, our day was everything we could have dreamed. Your professionalism and confidence made the usual wedding stress melt away and allowed for Mark and I to truly appreciate each other and our new lives together. Thank you for your attention to detail, and your careful planning which also made each moment better than the last. We're not quite sure how you arranged for that perfect sunset, but we are not surprised that you even made that happen for us. 
Thank you for making our dream come true!

Our wedding was just beautiful and it was all thanks to everyone at Sun Weddings.

I would highly recommend Sun Weddings to anyone planning to get married in the Siesta Key area.

We are speechless! This is such an AMAZING slide show, it brought tears to our eyes. We could not be more pleased with you and Sun Weddings and how perfect our day turned out to be. The weather was absolutely perfect and having you and Tina there to help share our day really is priceless! It's amazing what one can find by doing a simple google search for "Florida Beach Weddings", boy were we lucky to find you guys. We are SO SO very thankful that we chose you to capture our day and that Tina recommended you. Just by seeing the slide show we are extremely pleased with our photos and your talent. We've sent the link to family members and they are just amazed. We can't thank you enough.

Look no further for a Wedding Planner. I highly recommend Sun Weddings. Tina, Sigrid and your team....you are the bomb-diggity!!!! Your attention to detail, professionalism, wonderful warm personalities and not to mention your "right on" instincts regarding the weather made my niece's wedding a HUGE success. The vendors you recommended: Officiant, photographer, reception venue, transportation, flowers, cake, ceremony music and make-up were ALL absolutely fantastic! My niece chose the “White Elegance” package for the ceremony decoration...so beautiful! I'm glad I live locally so I can run into you again at another Siesta Key wedding!

If you are looking for the VERY BEST in beach weddings, these are the guys to turn to! From the moment we met Sigrid and Tina Gebel, they set our minds at ease. We went to meet them with a folder full of information and questions to throw at them about what we had envisioned. Every last detail and inquiry was met without hesitation. They personally and delicately keep in touch with us every step of the way through our six months of planning, which was very important as this was a destination wedding and we could not be in town to hunt these services down. They had dozens of recommendations and resources available right at our fingertips for every aspect of our planning. Photo, video, florists, hair, make up, hotels, transportation, cakes, dining, wedding priest/officiant; they have it ALL down. They offered the very best of each service, but also made it possible to get the very best at a wide range of different prices as to accommodate any income. At no point did we ever have to worry about our next step, because they were behind us every step of the way. We were even allowed to custom arrange the scenery/decorations they offered and pick the exact beach location for the ceremony! As far as a "hands-on" team, they are number one!!! They have been referred to as the "Dream Team", and I for one can say in up most sincerity that does not even give them justice! They are well beyond professional, but still are so sweet, down to earth, and amazingly easy to talk to. Hugs are a must when around them!! We are more than pleased with Sun Weddings, and would highly recommend them to any one with a dream of the world’s most perfect wedding experience!!! We cant wait for our first, and each following wedding anniversary, as we plan on each year making a stop to personally thank Tina and Sigrid as well as the rest of the Sun Weddings staff with a HUGE hug to thank them for all they have done for us. 
Best of wishes and blessings,

Hello,
Now that all the excitement is over, I personally wanted to thank you for everything you did to make my son's wedding "Just Perfect".  I have to confess that I was not happy at all that they wanted a beach wedding.  I am very old fashioned and wanted a church wedding right here in our home town so that "Everyone" could see them get married, but, much to my delight, their wedding was just beautiful!  Much more than I expected it to be.  The venue, the set-up, the steel drum, the perfect orchestration.  It was awesome, and all thanks to you!  I have never seen my son, nor his bride, happier and that is all a Mother could ask for.  The minister/officiant made the ceremony so personal and I was very happy to have the words God and Family brought into it.  He did a wonderful job! 
Once again, thank you very much.
Sincerely,

Karen (Mother of the Groom)

Hey Tina,
You all were wonderful! I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to work with from Sun Weddings..Kim Dyer Photography.. Scott Clark.. Jorge (DJ)... Vincent... And thank you for recommending Inn at the beach and Quarterdeck condos. I know that everyone was extremely satisfied. 
I will tell you this.. If someone wants to do a destination wedding... I will highly recommend Sun Weddings. I can not thank you enough. 
Just got back home from our honeymoon... It was a blast!

Sun Weddings are amazing! From the moment we met them in March 2011, I knew our wedding preparations were in the safest of hands. We were liasing with them from the UK but I was so assured and happy with Sun Weddings planning my wedding. The ceremony was exactly as we imagined and more, it was beautiful and a moment that will be with us for the rest of our lives. Sun Weddings are very professional in every aspect, and affordable. We cannot recommend them enough.
Thank you Sunweddings for making our day so special.

It was amazing!

Hi Tina and Team,

Hugo and I can't thank you all enough for being such a BIG part of our special day...I told everybody that from beginning to end you all were always there and that means a lot...it shows your dedication and commitment to your bride (and groom) at such a tender yet needy time... but also how you become "one" with the bride and groom... you all added such a personal touch to our special day... and we will definitely love to leave comments... about the service as well as the wonderful team of vendors you put together... Everyone was remarkable... and we couldn't have asked for a better day... better venue... or better team to make our day as special as it was...

Thank you for sharing your emotional story about your Dad... It's never easy no matter how many years pass by... and to visualize that moment brings it all back... but as we both know... they are watching over us... and even celebrating how we connected.

I'm so grateful that doing a "Google" search lead me to you... you are truly an amazing person... Hugo and I are truly appreciative for all you and the team did for us... Let's stay in touch... Send my love to the rest of the team... and we wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Tina,
To you and all your staff a huge thank you for making a long distance wedding a simple pleasure for me, Noel, the mother of the bride from S. C. and Meg, an over worked ,stressed out girl from N. C.
The music man was perfect, the photographer was perfect ,the set up on the beach perfect and I know you really weren't responsible for a perfect day to be fitted in between two freezing ones but weren't we all lucky that the sun came out at just the right time? I would give you the highest recommendation possible to anyone who wanted to contact me. I can't think of anything you suggested that was not the very best…flowers, cake, restaurant. Thank you for making it simple, easy, stress free and as I said before perfect! All with a couple of E-mails and phone calls. Thank you so very much and best  wishes for a Happy New Year and continued success.

Hi Tina,
I believe I just had every little girls' fairytale wedding...it was amazing! I am so grateful to the people who made this day perfect for Steve and I and to the people who came to be here with us and celebrate....

Planning a destination wedding is never easy, but you and the vendors you recommended were excellent and made it all that we could have asked for.  The flowers were perfect and dinner at Mattison's was unforgettable.

The Sun Weddings Team played such a crucial part in making our special day perfect. Mattisons 41 was wonderful, Flutterby Gardens and Beneva Flowers were also wonderful. But the most wonderful out of all of our experience was Sun Weddings. Our wedding would not have been the same without you. As for Tina, you went above and beyond and really took the time to make sure the Bride and Groom were happy and that you had done everything that you could to assist us. I would recommend you to anyone that asked my opinion!

Sincerely,

Steve and I would like to thank all of you for making our wedding day such a wonderful experience.  We both had such a wonderful time, and much of that goes to all of you.
Linda – the hair and makeup was amazing.  I received so many wonderful comments and felt very “natural”.   Thank you for taking the time to do Leslie and Hayley’s hair as well. 
Horatio and Thomas -  thank you for being there and offering such wonderful suggestions on pictures and what to do.  I am so looking forward to seeing the pictures, especially the ones of Steve seeing me in the dress for the first time.
Sigrid and Tina -  thank you for everything that you did not only during the months prior to the wedding but especially the day of.  I felt totally at ease and did not need to worry about a thing.  Having you both there to manage everything was great.  Every time I went to do something, you both had it covered.  I was so comfortable knowing that you both were there.  I received so many comments about the ceremony set up, the organization and how wonderful you both were. 
Scott – thank you for so much for a wonderful service.  You did such a wonderful job.  So many people commented on what a great ceremony it was.  Thank you for keeping Steve “in line”.  We both laughed so hard about him trying to sneak in the kiss and how you “slowed” him down. 

The day would not have been what it is was without all of you.  Thank you!

The Sun Weddings team was superb! I felt completely at ease prior to the wedding and the day of our ceremony. I live in Cincinnati, Ohio and worked with Tina Gebel through email. Every time I contacted Tina she returned all emails immediately, all questions were answered and great recommendations were given for vendors. I would highly recommend Sun Weddings for any couple seeking a perfect wedding day! Thank you so much Tina and the Sun Wedding team!!! My wedding was everything I'd hoped for!

Sun Wedding is a top notched, family operated business that I can't say enough good things about. From the first time I spoke with Ms. Tina, she made me feel at ease about planning a wedding so many miles away from home. She made us (my daughter & I) feel as if we were the only people she was working with, which I know wasn't true because there was several weddings the week of ours. But one thing is for certain whatever we wanted she was determined to deliver, and deliver she did. The set up was absolutely gorgeous! My family had a lot of catastrophes take place right in the middle of the wedding planning, I never feared tho, because Ms. Tina just kicked it in high gear and took care of everything. I know my daughters wedding would NOT have been as beautiful had it not been for the team at Sun Wedding. If a destination wedding is what you want. Then make sure to include Sun Wedding in your destination! I promise they will make your special day the most amazing & memoriable day of your life! It has truly been a pleasure working with Tina, Ms. Sigrid, and Christina. I may have hired a stranger but I left with a life long friend! I am forever thankful!

Dear Sigrid, Tina and Christina,
Rhondi and I would like to thank Sun Weddings for actually caring about us and our special day as if we were family. Tina and Sigrid did whatever it took to set our minds at ease and alleviate much of the stress around planning a destination wedding. Everything about our day was beautiful and these beautiful ladies were on top of things from the first time that I contacted them until our last hug good-bye a couple of days after our wedding. Every service that you provided was amazing. You're relationship with our vendors made our day pass as flawlessly and beautifully as we had dreamed it would. Whether it was a welcoming hug each time that we showed up at the office or the offer of a cold drink after a long day traveling you always made us feel at home and cared about. We can't thank you enough and will be sure to drop by and say hello next time we're in town.

Phil and Rhondi

Everyone at Sun Weddings is so nice! I wouldn't have made it without Tina's help! Tina was so patient and understanding and always reminding me that everything would be perfect - "no worries"! And it was! What a beautiful day. Thank you Tina for helping to make the most important day of my life so wonderful. You're a very special person and are soooo great at what you do. Thank you for everything!

I just wanted to write to thank Tina for doing such a wonderful job with my beach ceremony. From day one of talking with Tina she was very helpful and was always there 24/7 if I ever had a question. Since I was a little girl I was dreamed of getting married on the beach. Needless to say Tina made this dream come true for me!!!!! The beach set-up was Beautiful and the minister she provided for me did a WONDERFUL JOB during the ceremony! All my guest told me that the loved the set-up and said that whoever did it, did a wonderful job! Not only did Tina make sure I had the set-up of my dreams she came the day before to go over everything with everyone to ensure that everything would go smoothly (well probably more to make me feel like things would go smoothly)!!!

On the wedding day she helped out with everything, she even helped video tape the ceremony!!!!! In addition, during pre-ceremony she brought up champagne for my maid of honor and I, which helped me to relax a little bit because I was starting to get very nervous. Words cannot explain how thankful I am for everything Tina did for us, she truly made our Special Day Unforgettable for us and our guest!!!!!!!!!!! I would recommend Sun Weddings over and over again to anyone getting married down in Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you again for everything!!!!!!!

Michelle and Zachary K.

We wanted to take a few minutes to tell you thank you for all the you have done for us.  You both helped make our special day even more special.  Plus its a memory, LOL.  I will never forget how frustrated I was that we where running late to my own wedding.  ( was raised to never be late) and here we where.  But Tina helped keep me calm and when we got there I never will forget when Tina ripped me out of the back seat of the car and said hurry we are losing sun. And then she ran after my mother and took my niece and gave her to whom needed to watch her.  If it wasn't for you doing all this I don't think we would have had as nice of pictures from Andrew as we did.  I will forward some as well for you to keep or if you want to put us in your book to show off Andrew's work.  He was so great to work with as well.  I will always talk of you all and recommend you to others.  Thanks again Sooooo much we couldn't have done it with out you all at Sun Weddings.

Thanks

Hi Tina, Yes..we are still on cloud nine..it was a wonderful week and beautiful wedding! Thank you so very much for making it so easy for us, I cannot imagine planning a destination wedding on our own! There have been so many details thus far, and being able to pretty much show up for the wedding was such a relief! Everything was perfect!Mark told me later that Nicole was so nervous minutes before the wedding when he was getting ready to walk her over the sand dune.But when they came over the dune and she saw the wedding site, she was so happy and loved the way everything looked. So thank you again for making our girl's day one of the happiest ever!

Ladies,

I am not sure if you will remember me; my name is DeAnn Kenney-Garrett.  I just ran across my “wedding binder” from 2006.  It brought back memories of how lovely my/our wedding was almost 4 years ago..  Everything was so lovely and you kept my nerves at bay~ I just wanted to thank you again for all of your help and support.  My friends and family that did attend our wedding still comment on how lovely everything was.  I am attaching a picture from that day as well as pictures of the two additions to our family since then (Sophia born 9/11/07 and Seth born 10/22/08).  Thanks again for everything!

DeAnn

By the way ~ do you happen to know if the woman we used for our cake is still baking? I would love to surprise my husband with something from her sometime soon.  Thanks again!!!

They are awesome!  Previous to our wedding, our experience to Sarasota was limited to a week job and one trip to the area to help plan the wedding.  Tina and the team are wonderful, they helped introduce Siesta Keys and the Sarasota to us – great restaurants, wonderful lodging and of course an amazing wedding on the beach!  Sun Weddings exemplifies the standards for a great business: ethical, trustworthy, detailed oriented and very reliable.

We had such a good time that we are already planning our 2010 trip to Sarasota, we just couldn’t get enough of such a great place.

Thanks,

SUN WEDDINGS was the first wedding planner we called. Tina made such a stunning first impression and was so easy to talk to we never even called another planner. Within minutes we were feeling warmth, safety and trust with Tina and Sigrid. Sigrid has a beautiful grace about her. Cristina has a wonderful creative gift with her video talents. They treat you like a part of their family and you will feel like everything they do comes straight from their hearts.

SUN WEDDINGS was more than quick to respond to our every need and questions. Every vendor they recommended was awesome and was just as quick as responsive. The compliments where ongoing all night from our friends and family about how much they enjoyed the wedding. Our families asked us on several occasions "where did you find your Wedding planners.They really are wonderful!"
We feel very lucky to have found SUN WEDDINGS our wedding would not have been the same without them it truly was everything we imagined and more! My husband and I both remarked to each other how much fun we had with our ceremony and reception. We would recommend SUN WEDDINGS with our highest praise! We have nothing but so many thanks, praise, and respect for SUN WEDDINGS Sigrid, Tina and Cristina, they will forever be considered a part of our family,

Sun Weddings Planners provide absolutely phenomenal services. They give you constant attention, making you feel as though your wedding is as important to them as it is to you and they always keep you updated as to what is going on. They are extremely easy to talk to and completely understand the stress of putting a wedding together. They offer suggestions as to what vendors to use (they are not pushy at all, like other wedding planners that I spoke with) but I highly recommend using the vendors/people they suggest. Brides, they know their stuff! They got me an incredible makeup and hair stylist to come right to my honeymoon condo to do my hair and makeup before the wedding and I can't tell you how many compliments I got.

Although Sun Wedding Planners are professional, they also make you feel like family, and they only want the best for their family. Trust me on this... they are a very close family that work incredibly well together and you will be amazed at what they can get done! I only had two weeks to pull my wedding together and it was gorgeous! I probably would have ended up getting married in a Court House instead of on Siesta Key Beach at sunset with an amazing photographer. They even arranged a driver for us with only two days notice!

I am truly not one to give rave reviews. In fact, I am quite discriminating. But my experience with Sun Weddings was so incredible that I just had to share it. If you are planning a wedding in the Sarasota/Venice area you simply have to get Sun Weddings. Their prices are extremely reasonable and their service is second to none. You will also never meet nicer people who will do anything in their power to make your day spectacular!

Sincerely,

Shawna and Jeremy

I just wanted to take a few minutes of your time to tell you what a wonderful and beautiful job Tina and the Sun Wedding Team did on my ceremony back on September 9, 2009.

My fiance and I had talked about getting married at sunset, on the Gulf, just the three of us (we have a 6 year old daughter). We are from Michigan, so planning our ceremony became frustrating. I had found Florida Sun Weddings on-line, and was impressed with the beautiful beach set ups. I had contacted Tina. She was very nice and so willing to help me plan. After our conversation, I felt very confident in her and her team. For several months we kept in contact. She was on top of everything. When we arrived to Siesta Key Beach, everything was perfect. The set up was absolutely breath taking. Tina and her team did an outstanding job. We couldn't have been happier.

Honestly, I was a little nervous about putting full trust in someone (who I've never met) to plan my wedding, several states away. Think about it, this is your big day and you are not here to sit down and talk with this person or physically see what they are doing and what they have in mind. For all I knew, I could have been taken advantage of, and had absolutely nothing when we arrived. You just don't know now a days.
Anyway, Tina and the Sun Wedding Team were great. We can't thank them enough for making our wedding so memorable.

Sincerely,

Dianna and Eric

Tina and the Sun Weddings Team were wonderful! They helped me plan a destination wedding that was beautiful! The quick and timely responses that I got back from them when I had a question, it showed that they were definitely on top of things. Tina kept everyone on track the day of the wedding. I would have been lost without her. They were kind to our guest and families, and were there to answer their questions when needed. They made our day special and one that we, along with our guest, will never forget!

Good Morning!

I just wanted to take time out to say thank you for all of you help. You were there through every tough trial and tribulation and even when I thought our wedding just wouldn't be able to go on - you were there with encouraging words and the infinite "plan B".

I know you organize a lot of weddings but please know that I am so very grateful for you helping me to organize mine. Being that Kenneth and I have been best friends for 9 1/2 years and dating for the last 5 of those years, you can imagine we have been through a lot, more than you can even imagine but as I type this e-mail as Mrs. Evans I know that I owe the final chapter of our lives as "boyfriend and girlfriend" and the new chapter of our lives as truly being one to you.

You are beautiful women with beautiful hearts because you didn't have to try so hard to help me - but you did - and I am grateful.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Sherika Brown - Evans :)

"As Marylanders, finding dedicated Wedding planners five states away wasn't to be an easy task. Or so we thought...

My snow bird parents had fallen in love with the world-renowned quartz sands at Siesta Key Beach Sea Club V. After years of vacationing there, it truly became a sentimental location for my family. After my Father passed in September 2007, my Fiancee wanted to be joined in matrimony at a location to honor and include my Father. Hence, we elected to join our hearts on Siesta Key Beach in February 2008. Tina, Sigrid and Cristina truly understood the emotional ties for us both & my family to include my Father in our day. They helped us remember my Father with a beautiful Dove Release (thru Sarasota Dove Release), unity sand ceremony, and surprise umbrellas to catch my Father's tears of joy as it down poured on our special day. Florida is the sunshine state - just not at 4:00 on our Wedding Day. However, realizing it's about the marriage not the weather we weathered the rain, Take One Media filmed our vows and our guests cheered us on to the music of DJ Steve Warnchik ! Even in the rain these ladies attended to every need with beautiful smiles, patience, and grace! Sun Weddings referred us Pastor Scott Clark who, while wet, spiritually and comically joined my Husband Dr. Stephen Synowski and I twice in God's love! (Once in the rain then again at our beautiful, dry reception site!)

Our guests raved of Tina, Sigrid and Cristina's detailed skills, love of family, and true desire to ensure all our wedding wishes were not just dreams! You know its truly a family business when husbands and children of these beautiful ladies are there setting up in the rain and cheering our walk down the isle on with true spirit!!

Thank you Tina, Sigrid and Cristina for your heartfelt dedication, quality vendor referrals, and love of ensuring the Bride is relaxed and the Groom is smiling!! Truly YOU ladies were our sunshine on our blessed day - we would do it all over again - even in the rain!! We thank and love you much!!

Much love & thanks,

Dear Sigrid, Tina and Cristina,

We can't thank you enough for the time and thoughtfulness you put into every aspect of our wedding. From our first conference call to our wedding and "weekend-long celebration" over a year later, you were there every step of the way. We looked forward to visiting Florida from New York for "wedding planning" - in part to see you! Your energy, passion and enthusiasm surrounding our wedding meant the world to us, and it will forever.
We both imagined a picture perfect wedding day our entire lives and you helped make it a reality. You completely shared our vision and made it your own.

You are lovely, professional and organized, and you went above and beyond to make sure that our day (and weekend) was magical. We were so incredibly impressed by your attention to detail! We knew that we were in good hands! We were (surprisingly) calm throughout the planning process, and throughout the wedding and weekend events, this is because of you. With you on our team, we knew it would be flawless. And it was!

You are the "Dream Team" The compliments from our wedding party and guests never ended.

Working with you was the best decision that we made surrounding the wedding.

You are fabulous and will be in our hearts forever! Again, thank you for making our dream a reality.

Love, Sarah and Eric
New York, NY

Hi My Amazing Duo!!

Thank you both for being part of the most memorable day of my life. The ceremony was perfect, minus my forgetfulness, and the reception was so beautiful. I can't wait to see the pictures from Horatio, we will send you some too. We had a beautiful time in Key West and are heading back to Dallas tomorrow to get back to the "real world".

I tell you if I could change it all, the one thing I would not undo is having you guys take care of me. What an amazing job you do and I honestly wish I could get married all over again just to experience what you gave me one more time. I will never forget you. Thank you for everything from the bottom of our hearts.

We would like to extend our gratitude to Tina & Sigrid for everything that made our wedding day the extraordinary day that it was!! We live in WV and planned our destination wedding for November in Venice, FL...Not an easy task to accomplish, we thought...but, Tina & Sigrid eased that burden immensely. They had wonderful resources and recommendations to offer and were always ready with a kind word and a calming pep talk during the planning process. We could not have been happier with our wedding and how everything came together so perfectly on our wedding day!! Many of our guests have expressed that it was the BEST wedding that they had ever been to, some said including their own!! We enjoyed our wedding day so much and all of the wonderful details that were facilitated by them & brought together so eloquently are special memories we have to cherish forever!! Tina & Sigrid really care and will go the extra mile to insure the bride and groom are happy, they really know their stuff and have many talents to share. We trusted them with our special day & they went above & beyond what we had anticipated!! We highly recommend them to plan the wedding or your dreams.

Dear Sigrid, Tina

David and I are back in NYC and we are still glowing. And it is not just from the beautiful Florida sunshine we had the week of our wedding (do we owe you anything extra for the wonderful weather?) I am not exaggerating when I say that our wedding day was the most wonderful day in my life. It could not have happened without the two of you. The decision to have a wedding coordinator, and then choosing your services, was the single best wedding planning decision we made. From the very start, your services went beyond our expectations. My desire for an elegant, but fun wedding, became a reality with your help. Throughout the entire process, and certainly on the day of, I was relaxed and at ease. (The well-timed martini didn't hurt any either!) I can truly say that I completely enjoyed my own wedding. I would do it all over again tomorrow.

Thank you once again from the bottom of our hearts. We will definitely recommend you to other WCF brides without reservation, and if we ever decide to do it again, you'll be our first contact.

Sigrid & Tina Gebel

First let me start by thanking you SO MUCH for making Jeff & Jessica's dream come true. You went above and beyond your duties and for that all of us will be forever thankful. You delivered on everything promised and left not one stone unturned. Your kindness and friendship with everyone was and still is so greatly appreciated. Everything was perfect! Thank you also for working closely with us from the beginning, getting back with us promptly and always being so professional, courteous and personable. You guys are truly amazing! Let's not forget to mention my endless amounts of emails you returned so quickly and with such positive words of encouragement and thoughtfulness. Our families who attended were worried about having a beach wedding; however they cannnot stop talking about how beautiful everything was.

We wish you well and even more success in the future. If you feel as though you would like to use me as a reference, please don't hesitate to ask.

Debra

Sigrid & Tina Gebel,

Where do I begin?? You guys made the most important day in my life flawless! You guys had my mind at ease during the whole process...how you did that I am not sure but it was wonderful. I am usually one that needs to be in control but it was very easy to leave everything in your hands. I appreciate the option to change our date when the weather was not looking promising, your flexibility made things easier on me. The guests in attendance could not stop talking about how wonderful everything looked; they were impressed with your professionalism and how easily everything flowed.

I was very happy with everything...Grace nailed our relationship on the nose with her ceremony; we will cherish those words forever! I am still getting compliments on the pictures that Andy took, people were amazed at how beautiful they were and they could not believe that we got them 2 days after the ceremony! My flowers were exactly what I wanted and added just enough to the pictures.

You guys exceeded my expectations and I would do it all over again, in a heartbeat. I will not hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking to do a beach wedding!

Thanks again for everything! I will send pictures when we get them unloaded!

Dear Tina (Sigrid and Cristina);

It is 10:45 pm on “The Day After”

Many in the house are in bed sleeping. Others are still out and about. The kids are at a condo on the beach, and I find myself alone in a quiet house finally, beginning to reflect upon the events of the last several days.

I have had many wonderful comments from nearly everyone in attendance about how PERFECT this wedding and reception were. But, not until now have I had the time to turn over the whole experience for myself.

And so, in this moment, I find myself typing this e-mail to all of you. It is important to me that each of you fully appreciates how your role in this wedding touched so many of us so deeply. Yes, it is always great to have someone compliment you for your work. But, most often, if you are truly good at what you do, you already know that. You are all clearly good at what you do. BUT, your performance and contributions to the process when far beyond professionalism; In our case, you demonstrated that you honestly CARE about those how you are assisting.

This was one of the most important days of our parenting lives. Isn't it something that I can't think about the beauty of the experience without thinking about you!
Christina, you worked your butt off this weekend and we could not have done this without you. Tina? Tina. You were our blessing. You were not a wedding planner this weekend. You were the wind under our wings, the friend present in a time of need and the absolute difference maker in presenting my family with a parent's life long dream come true. My daughter adored you, my wife leaned on you more then a dozen times in one day and I made eye contact with you and your presence assured me that everything is going to be alright.

Thank you all, thank you Tina. Please know that this father of the bride will never forget the gift you helped give me.

Most sincerely,

Keith, Father of the Bride
Venice, FL
