Cartagena, Bolivar, Colombia < change city >

"Itala was simply amazing and diligent from the moment we met her. Itala is the kind of professional that anticipates the couple's needs and throw different options for you to evaluate so you don't have to start from scratch. Itala is also very good at the details that you think are not so important during the planning process but when you see them on the wedding day you understand she added them for a reason and just demonstrates she is the best at what she does. The vendors and the staff the she works with are simply the best. If you want your guests to tell you they had the best food ever, the best service ever and that your wedding was truly above standards then i will highly recommend that you choose Itala."

From the vendor:

Ivan and Kristina met in NYC and are the main characters of a beautiful love story. After dating and falling in love, he proposed to her at the beach and that day they decided to have 2 weddings, one in New York City's Central Park and one in Colombia. They both had the same expectation and dreams for the wedding so Cartagena would be the chosen city: Kristina travelled there and loved the romantic, fairy-tale feeling of the walled city. As they tell it, she thought it would be an amazing place to get married: "Cartagena has history, the beach and amazing food! It was also really important that my family experience Ivan’s culture and country". Likewise, Ivan wanted to get married in a historic, beautiful city and wanted it to be the setting to bring both worlds together. --So one day I also met Ivan and Kristina... and I also fell in love with them, and immediately wanted to be part of their love story! When we met in Cartagena to start preparing the wedding, we had fun looking at each venue, knowing each vendor, planning every detail... we even had fun in the rain in one of those days! --They picked a beautiful XVII century colonial house to have their wedding ceremony and reception, and desired to embellish it with flowers and decorations. In this wedding the stars were the gerberas! Beautiful white gerberas and candles for the ceremony, and beautiful colored gerberas in fuchsia, purple, yellow and orange for cocktail, dinner and party areas... Colorful gerberas and candles everywhere! in the entrance arrangements, in the food-stations arrangements, in the centerpieces, in the cocktail tables, in the pool floats like flowers islands... Gerberas accompanied by beautiful lanterns in the same colors of the flowers... Gerberas colors in the dramatic lighting reflected in the dance floor and the chiffon veils hanging from the balconies. Everything was shining thanks to the colorful Ivan and Kristina dreamed in this house for their wedding... I will never forget the look on their faces when they entered the reception area and saw the assembly of all! Kristina cried for joy, kissed Ivan and hugged me with deep emotion. --Another star of the night at this wedding was the music: the guests were treated with something special planned for every moment: pianist at the ceremony, cuban quartet during cocktail, bossa nova at dinner, and to liven up the party a crossover DJ and a 10-piece band playing genres such as salsa, reggae, calypso, merengue, rock and pop... --Everything was set to party all night! And indeed they had fun and enjoyed every moment until the end! But weddings like this will never end: one is talking about them forever! And with couples like Ivan and Kristina there's never an end: one remembers and loves them forever!

"To hire Itala was the smartest decision we have ever made. She is much more of what you can expect from. She is professional and highly organised, what gave us peace during this amazing process. We don’t live in Cartagena, but it was our dream to get married in such amazing city, that's why we did our research and thankfully we found Itala. Since day 1 (more than a year before the wedding) we knew that everything was going to be ok even though we couldn't be there to do everything. She was there all the time, with a great reactivity and solutions to every question mark that we had. She is known for working with the best vendors, so we knew we were going to have the best quality, what we confirmed when we met them. She has an answer to everything and she is full of great ideas. The wedding day, we were able to have a great time and not worry about anything, with her beautiful smile and energy we felt assured and we had the best day ever, thanks to her. We would highly recommend her!"

From the vendor:

Lina and François live in Lille, France ... so far from Colombia but so close to my heart! We started working together in their wedding and there was chemistry all along the process, the emails, the phone calls, and the visit to Cartagena, everything ran smoothly all the way. --One of the most beautiful details that we developed with the caterer for this couple, was the assembly of two food stations to join the culinary culture of two countries: Colombian Station and French Station: guests found in their tables the printed menu with Colombian treats to taste in the station called "Lina" as "Posta negra a la criolla, Mero con mantequilla de limón, Arroz de Ají Dulce, Plátano en tentación, Cazuelita de fríjoles con Chicharroncitos, Criollitas y Arepitas de queso con Hogao, Costillitas de credo agridulces, etc"... and things to taste in the station called "François" with french delicacies as "Ensalada con queso roquefort y nueces, Lomo en mostaza francesa, Pollo en vino rosé, Magret de Pato, Definoise de papas, Quiches, pan francés, mini croissants, y más." --Their wedding décor was very trendy: in shades of blue and brown with white accents, we were dedicated to plan every element to keep that desired color palette: the white emphasis was in the fine gypsophilia (baby's breath), the blue tone was given by the blue belladonna, and brown was in many decorative details including props, calligraphy and linens. We designed with the florist low centerpieces in belladonna and gypsophilia surrounding a candle that provided light and warmth. The tables wore beautiful runners in turquoise and chocolate, tied turquoise and brown napkins; chocolate-brown chivary chairs contrasted with their pads and twisted bands, both in turquoise blue. ¡Not to mention the beautiful bouquet and its perfect match boutonnier: both designed with plenty gypsophilia evoking a romantic rain of stars in Lille! --Every detail of this wedding was designed for each occasion entirely; we thought them with love, with joy, with anticipation for the wedding day to arrive... and how wonderful was to coordinate each of them for Lina, François, Tobita, their families and friends to noticed... to enjoy every moment, to remember the event as unique and magical. Personally I love it when we have so many beautiful details in a wedding, so I enjoyed every moment of this planning... and I will always remember Lina's wide laughters and smiles to François, and the tender and loving glances with which François looked her back! --TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS WEDDING IN CARTAGENA GO TO: http://mbcartagena.blogspot.com/2012/07/lina-and-francois-french-colombian_24.html

"Itala y el equipo de mi boda en Cartagena es todo lo que uno necesita para poder hacer un matrimonio espectacular sin vivir en Colombia y sin vivir en Cartagena. Itala nos hizo sentir como unos principes y el dia de nuestro matrimonio no nos tuvimos que preocupara absolutamente por nada, para todos nuestros invitados fue una de las mejores fiestas en las que han estado y nosotros estuvimos muy pero muy felices, creo que sera un dia que nunca olvidaremos!"

From the vendor:

Así como lo fue para Natalia y Chris, también para mí será un día y una pareja que nunca olvidaré. Comencé a organizar esta boda junto a ellos precisamente un año antes y ¡qué gran año tuvimos!, el tiempo justo para lograr construir una linda relación que más de trabajo era de absoluto compromiso para lograr un resultado hermoso. Ellos desde Australia y yo desde Colombia, emprendimos una travesía llena de detalles y en completa armonía, que resultó en un cálido, romántico y exitoso evento que tuvo lugar en una señorial e imponente casa de la ciudad amurallada con más de 4 siglos de historia. De lo más increíble para los invitados fue tener el cocktail en plena Plaza de La Proclamación y que disfrutaran las deliciosas bebidas y canapés al son de un show típico de danzas folclóricas en pleno atardecer cartagenero. La decoración fue extraordinaria: el salón parecía un colorido jardín colmado de variadas flores como hortensias, gérberas, lirios, mini rosas, ghypsofilia, solidago, mini delfinios... todas daban forma a los coloridos centros de mesa al estilo "campestre natural" que fascinó a los novios. Manteniendo la tendencia de utilizar fibras naturales, la mantelería de lino crudo blanco se destacaba con caminos de yute/fique especialmente confeccionados para la ocasión. Tiernas grullas en técnica origami fueron un regalo personal del papá de la novia: coloridas para la recepción, blancas colgadas para la ceremonia, como queriendo ser testigos y cómplices de la pareja en su día soñado. Estos y más accesorios fueron especialmente diseñados para esta boda llena de detalles hermosos y especiales! Desde que los conocí Natalia, Chris, sus familiares y amigos fueron muy cálidos, afectuosos, simpáticos y claro, alegres y fiesteros durante toda la noche...

We didn’t simply feel like just another client, but the “red carpet” was rolled out every step of the way to make us truly feel like superstars! Itala is a true perfectionist and her attention to detail, and passion for wedding planning comes across in every little detail. The finished product of all of her effort allowed us to have the most magical day of our lives."

From the vendor:

Once again I have the luck to meet a perfect match! Thanks and more thanks because I'm always surrounded by fabulous brides and grooms! I also feel blessed! Glenda and Mitch are no exception; they were fantastic, always receptive to my advice and suggestions, always attentive to our communications, always listening to innovations and trends that may apply to their wedding to make it a day even more special. The wedding decoration was absolutely beautiful, full of details in fuchsia, purple, ice blue and silver, the fashionable color palette chosen by the couple that one could even see in the design of the 5 layer delicious cake. Linens: fabulous! Exclusive black tablecloths were used to delicately highlight the shimmering silver organza. They combined perfectly with the silver paper lanterns made especially for this occasion. The majestic view from the bastion was even more adorned by beautiful centerpieces with mirrors, water, votive candles, elegant orchids and callas. The nicest thing: the same floral arrangements in 2 colors! Exactly the same pattern but in some tables in white with fuchsia lights, in others purple with blue lights, simply chic! Glenda and Mitch were happy and dancing until dawn; they shined! And since we started planning their wedding, they inspire even more my passion for weddings mentioned. They won my heart and my admiration eternally! --SEE GLENDA AND MITCHELL'S PIC IN THE SUNSET AT: http://mbcartagena.blogspot.com/2012/02/amazing-sunsets-for-perfect-weddings-in.html

"I truly don't even know where to begin with this review. Itala and her staff will never be forgotten! I know people say that there are no perfect weddings but my wedding was truly perfect and it is all do to Itala and her hard work. I first visited this website as a confused and overwhelmed bride. I had no idea what to do or who to choose as my wedding planner. After doing some research I kept hearing "Mi boda en Cartagena". Well my choice could not have been more fitting and perfect for Jason and I. We are both very detailed and organized people and I never thought I'd meet someone more organized than my husband! But I did in Itala. Her style, dedication to details and relationships with every vendor involved with our wedding was impeccable. Her company runs like a well oiled machine:) But on top of her reliability, she is also a sweet, caring and passionate woman who loves what she does... and it shows! We have so many incredible memories from our trip to Cartagena and our wedding and none of them would have been possible with out her! She will always hold a place in our heart! If you are planning a wedding in Cartagena and you are lucky enough to have her as your wedding planner... you are in good hands! Trust her with everything as I did and you will not be disappointed!"

From the vendor:

With Jessica and Jason I experienced what it means to feel total empathy… what a beautiful couple, so real, so organized… since we met they were very sweet and open when saying they loved my method and organizational style… my perfect match! All the details in the reception were carefully chosen of the couple's hand, and they were the perfect reflection of the dedication that they put in their wedding. Majestic Cattleya Trianae Orchids in white and fuchsia, recently flourished Dendrobium Orchids and romantic votive candles stole all the looks in the centerpieces and in the floating arrangements that adorned the whole place. All the details were special, from the beautiful and modern illumination that fell on the lounge furniture and the central patio, until the delicious j+j signature cocktails, created with tropical mixers, the exquisite Chambord Flavored Vodka and the unique Chambord Black Raspberry Liqueur. In my pleasant job as a Wedding Planner I feel fortunate knowing such adorable couples, and thanks to them there are many histories of success I can tell; thanks to them and to Jessica & Jason I realize that these words are certain: “There are some things success is not: is not fame, is not money or power. Success is waking up in the morning so excited about what you have to do, that you literally fly out the door. Is getting to work with people you love. Success is connecting with the world and making people feel. Is finding a way to bind together people who have nothing in common but a dream. Is falling sleep at night knowing you did the best job you could. Success is Joy, and Freedom and Friendship, and Success is Love”… And it is Love the main character of this wedding, the one that joined Jessica and Jason, and the one that we were attracted by to work together… from that first call and that first "click", we knew at once that we were made for each other!!! --SEE JESSICA AND JASON AS CINDERELLA AND HIS PRINCE AT: http://mbcartagena.blogspot.com/2011/07/cinderella-esta-la-moda.html

"I have to say MiBodaEnCartagena has been the best thing ever happened to us when we decided to get married in Cartagena. Since the beginning, Itala was the most proactive and amazingly organized person I could ever find. She is very very well known by all the vendors and all of them give excellent references of her, and that gives a lot of peace of mind! The first time I e-mailed her I was really impressed by all her accurate answers that showed experience in her work. Once we decided to go with her, we met twice in Cartagena: first meeting, check and reserve venues, second one, all the other arrangements. For the first meeting she had all the venues arranged and everything was set in order for us tom choose. For the second meeting she had a three full day agenda ready, including appointment for hair and make up for me and two girl friends for another wedding I had to attend in Cartagena! That was amazing; she did not only take car of all the things for my wedding but also, other things I had to get done there during those days. Those days were great since I got to meet every single person who was going to be working on my wedding, including stylist! Another great thing about her is that she really keeps you up to speed on everything. My husband and I were making all the decisions together and, since we both travel a lot for work it was hard to coordinate and give quick responses, but she was patient and responsive in every single detail, and always sending very nice reminders of the things we needed to get done. And the best part is she ALWAYS has a plan B!! If there is something you want but cannot do or get for whatever reason, she will always give you another alternative that will leave you as happy as your first idea. There is no question left un answered and there is no way she will leave you hesitating about anything! In a nutshell, she really knows her business and whereabouts! I could spend the rest of the day writing all the anecdotes and great experiences with Itala. Do not have pictures yet because we just got married less than two weeks ago but will post them as soon as I get them It was MAGICAL. Elegant, informal, romantic and fun. All at the same time. I wish I was back there every day! All our friends left saying that it has been THE best party they have ever been in a long time (and Spaniards know how to party!) and if they ever got married, it would have to be in Cartagena! One of the most beautiful comments: “everything was so perfect, and impressive, that no picture could capture the beauty of it” . We both know all this was possible thanks to Itala and her team, who were there 2000%!"

From the vendor:

… and 2000% was the affection that we all received from Maria Paula and Ignacio at their wedding! I had the great luck to receive the call from one of my dearest childhood friends to speak to me about them and what a formidable couple she put in my hands. They are absolutely brilliant, affectionate, courteous, friendly and confident of what they like. This was a really beautiful and romantic wedding where the coloring of fuchsia, orange and yellow gerberas prevailed next to the contrasting warmth of the violet and fashion fuchsia lighting. During the crazy hour the love for soccer showed up, specially for Spaniards who enjoyed one to one the video with their team’s goals, a sweet promise that his adorable girlfriend made to Ignacio if they won the 2010 World Cup at South Africa…. And they did!, and what a crazy/grrreat/unique time we had on their champions behalf singing with Shakira and David Visbal “…in the streets are exalted people, as we lose our inhibitions, celebration is around us, every nation all around us… en las calles muchas manos levantadas celebrando, una fiesta sin descanso, los países como hermanos”… an ode to the fraternity everybody lived in this wedding!!! Maria Paula & Ignacio wrote me: “…nunca imaginamos que nuestra boda fuera a ser tan espectacular como fue. No solamente pudimos disfrutar de cada momento, sino también de cada detalle!… nunca habíamos estado en una boda tan linda como la nuestra jajaja!… fue espectacular todo!… Tenemos que decirte que sin tu asesoría y experiencia probablemente nada de esto habría pasado!” And I should say that without their friendliness and trust neither! -- SEE MARIA PAULA & IGNACIO WITH A TRENDY SCARLET RED IN: http://mbcartagena.blogspot.com/2011/07/cinderella-esta-la-moda.html

"We had the chance of meeting Itala Vasquez on February, 2010, when we started planning our wedding. She suggested several alternatives and took us one place after another looking for the right church, priest, ornaments, flowers, music, party site, catering, DJ, photographer, driver, hairdresser et al. Her professionalism is guaranteed, as she has the ability of organizing an executive agenda involving the best of the best for that special day. On our wedding day, not a single detail was missing. She coordinated the whole team; the bride had one advisor and the groom another. They had an agenda in which we did not have to worry about NOTHING, and we mean NOTHING. Itala and her team handled absolutely everything. We just had to enjoy the mass, taste the extraordinary food and beverages and go wild with the party. Two-thumbs up for Itala and her team. Definitivelly, you get what you pay."

From the vendor:

I can use many special words to describe Maria Clara and Diego, “La Pulga y El Rey”... come to my mind some I quote in Spanish: alucinantes, fascinantes, asombran al mundo, dan esperanza y ganas nuevas… all these from a melody sung by their friend Mariana during their wedding! This was an adorable ceremony, where the white lilies and roses stood out with subtle touches of red gerberas, matching with the Thai style bouquet the bride offered to the Monstserrat Black Virgin. The reception décor and centerpieces on the contrary had emphasis in the red gerberas with few white details given by lilies, and the splendid of unique/attractive tablecloth in black and silver organza… the most chic detail was the elegant red silk lanterns brought specially for this night, so intensely illuminated that seemed like fire! All guests enjoyed five stations of exquisite food: Spanish, Peruvian, Mexican, Colombian delights and the sweetness of typical desserts from Cartagena. The best in the night was the 3 Crazy Hours! Yes, 3 spectacular different hours with Spanish/Mexican/Colombian music and accessories. Maria Clara & Diego wrote to me: “Queremos agradecerte por haber hecho que nuestra boda fuera simplemente perfecta! Qué profesionalismo, qué organización, qué tranquilidad la que nos diste desde que te conocimos y por supuesto en los meses venideros, culminando con la boda más maravillosa del mundo… en serio lograste con tu equipo que ese 20 de agosto sea para siempre!!!!!”. I feel very fortunate of having shared so rich moments with El Rey, La Pulga, Nico, Bibi, Maria Lucia, Clau, with ALL! They gratifyingly touched our hearts, and when I say ours I refer to all the people who worked next to me in the wedding; I promise this family they will always be in our hearts… and like the previous mentioned song says: es éste un amor para la historia, cada memoria nos marcará la vida entera! Ellos saben a qué me refiero al decirles que TODOS estuvimos in the arms of two angels! -- SEE THE BEAUTIFUL CEREMONY DÉCOR OF MARÍA CLARA & DIEGO AT: http://mbcartagena.blogspot.com/2011/11/shopping-for-churches.html

"Itala was absolutely wonderful! SHe took care of every single detail...was perfection! We really appreciate her hard work!"

From the vendor:

I'm glad I met Margarita & Kevin, they're just a wonderful, adoring and tender couple! She was always laughing, he was always smiling back to her! What a nice gesture of love! Margarita and Kevin chose gorgeous white hydrangeas for the bench-bouquets and arrangements that beautified much more the magnificent church where they had their ceremony. At the reception the nice white hydrangeas were combined with royal purple calla lilies and dendrobium orchids that stood out even more with the dramatic lavender illumination. How sweet a wedding can be? Well, the couple go beyond with the trend of the night: a fantastic Candy Bar where delicious purple colored sweets delighted all guests, working double time as both reception décor and wedding favor!!! They wrote me: “Itala, Kevin y yo te queremos agradecer porque todo salió suuuuper lindo, sin problema alguno! … Gracias por organizar todo lo que había en mi cabeza, y hacer que todo fuera un sueño! Nos encantó conocerte, Mil y mil gracias... un abrazo enorme de los dos!” I’m really the one who thank them for having me as their wedding planner! They can count on me always!

From the vendor:

Yvonne & William had a fantastic, magic wedding! From the begging till the end they had unique surprises for their guests; they picked beautiful settings, fuchsia roses decorations, delicious gourmet food, a great band, etc. etc… I loved their cake! The most romantic one so far, with pink cymbidium orchids as the bride's bouquet! We met in Cartagena months prior to the wedding and had a great time! We established a nice friendship and had an incredible time planning their wedding day! They wrote me: “Itala, todo fue un sueño y todo salió perfecto. Nuestros amigos y familiares están súper, pero súper contentos con nuestra boda, se divirtieron mucho y quedaron encantados… Te damos mil gracias por todo! … Hiciste un maravilloso trabajo”. William was involved in every detail -the best groom ever since the bride had his support and concern- Yvonne was always so sweet and trusting! It was a pleasure working for them; I’m glad to say they can count on me, since I know I can count on them also – 4ever, 4 all time ;) --SEE MORE REVIEWS CLICKING COUPLES AT www.mibodaencartagena.com

Itala is not only an extremely nice and friendly person, she is also very professional and makes sure that everything, down to the last detail, is exactly what the bride and groom asked for. My husband and I had so much fun and we were able to enjoy our wedding because we knew Itala would take care of everything and do an excellent job. All of our guests had a wonderful time as well and a lot of them said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Itala is wonderful and we are truly thankful to her for making our wedding the best day in our lives!"

From the vendor:

Not only Pamela & Leandro are an extraordinary couple, their families are also great! Moms, Dads, siblings, everyone where nice, caring, and willing to have a great time at their wedding. As the bride & groom were always relaxed and glad to be together in Cartagena, their pictures result to be amazing; I love the way Leandro kissed Pamela’s hand once they met to be married, what a nice picture, so romantic, so amorous, so tender… The civil marriage of Pamela & Leandro took place at an historical house inside the walled city and under a beautiful arch of lilac roses and veils; a dreamy path with candles marked the road toward the place of the reception, where the floral arrangements were a gorgeous combination of lilac roses, pink lilies, pink dendrobium and yellow oncidium orchids, among others. They wrote me: “Itala, te queremos dar las gracias por hacer nuestra boda tan especial. Todo estuvo absolutamente perfecto!... Nos encantó que pudimos disfrutar al máximo nuestra propia boda porque sabíamos que tu ibas a encargarte de todo y hacer un excelente trabajo!! Muchísimas gracias mil veces más, verdaderamente fue una boda para recordar” And I’ll always remember them!

Lina & Richard had the most romantic wedding in the beach, with a beautiful sunset, dreamy music, tropical heliconias and ginger flowers, and the best detail of all: their son as witness: an only 3 months blue-eyed baby as ring carrier!!! … This is another couple who is soooo in love; Richard is just crazy about Lina and Samuel, and they both adore him!!! They had an astounding reception décor with pink stargazer lilies and orchids, delicious food, amazing music with boleros, tango and more… and this is unforgettable: the craziest Hora Loca no matter the rain, no matter who gets into the pool!!! They wrote me: “Itala, mil gracias!!! Todo nos salió tal como lo habíamos soñado gracias a tu planeación, profesionalismo y organización… Fue una boda espectacular en todos los sentidos y no le cambiaríamos nada…”.

From the vendor:

Paula and David was also a fantastic couple to work for! As a bride Paula was great from the begging, and David is the tenderest, affectionate groom… Oh but both their families: absolutely extraordinary! What a beautiful couples their parents are, both long-lasting marriages, over 40 years together, nice example of what truly love is! I’m sure Paula and David are going to be same, they are soooo in love, they are sooo kind to each other! Graceful white calla lilies and romantic candles lit in the ceremony turned even more magic the colonial church where Paula and David received God’s blessing, while at the reception the romantic trio-bouquets in orange roses and gerberas harmonized the color of the icing ribbons and lilies from the cake, a distinctive asymmetric model made of passion fruit flavor. They wrote me: “Itala, no hay suficientes maneras para expresar nuestra gratitud por todo lo que hiciste por nosotros y para nuestro matrimonio... La verdad que fue inolvidable, mejor de lo que lo esperábamos… Todo, todo salió perfecto y fue gracias a tu organización y atención a todo detalle… No lo hubiéramos logrado sin ti” What a great wedding, what an amazing couple!

From the vendor:

Maria Fernanda & Jeff are not only one of the many couples I assisted, they remain in my heart as friends and in my vendors minds as one of the best couples ever: Maria was always affectionate and trusting, Jeff was always easy going with everyone… they had a great party and dance till the end of it! Their wedding reception took place at a magic/very unique venue in Cartagena, with view to the ocean and the whole modern and old city, having as witness a beautiful and warm sunset, with romantic centerpieces in a bed of white roses and orchids and the subtle contrast of orange colored candles. They wrote me: “Itala, queremos darte las gracias por habernos ayudado a convertir nuestro sueño de hacer nuestra boda en Cartagena. Todo salió lindísimo, mejor no pudo estar. Como un cuento de hadas! Tu trabajo fue impecable… It was a blast!”… I have to say their wedding really Was a Blast but knowing and working for them was better than that! --SEE HOW JEFF LOVES MARIA FERNANDA IN: http://mbcartagena.blogspot.com/2011/08/when-man-loves-colombian-woman.html
