Mariela was more than just our wedding planner—she was a true partner throughout the entire journey. We went back and forth on so many details, from the style of the ceremony to even the country, and she was there every step of the way with endless patience and understanding.
When we finally decided on an intimate elopement in the heart of Tuscany, Mariela turned our vision into a reality more beautiful than we ever imagined. Every detail was perfect, and the day felt magical.
Having her plan my sister’s wedding too, we knew we were in the best hands. We’re beyond grateful to Mariela for making our dream day come true!

Mil gracias Mariela!!! Te queremos mucho.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Mariela, who planned an elopement at the stunning Castello di Vicarello in Tuscany. Working with her has been one of the best experiences we’ve had throughout our years in the profession. Mariela brings a perfect balance of professionalism and calmness, and she is sweet and attentive to every detail. From the first emails exchanged to the wedding day itself, her support was invaluable. She truly touched our hearts, and her kind and special spirit is something we will always cherish
Mariela is a precious asset for any couple, a true added value for any professional involved and perfectly brought the couple’s desires to life, creating an atmosphere that was everything they had envisioned. The couple was completely relaxed and joyful throughout the day, a true testament to Mariela’s attention to detail and care. She ensured that every moment was seamless, allowing them to fully enjoy their special day without a worry.

I would recommend Etereo Events to anyone that wants to have a stress free wedding experience! Mariela was so sweet and amazing to work with! I had a destination wedding in PR and needed someone to coordinate the event and to provide advise on certain things during the wedding planning process. Everything from the timeline to her vendor recommendations were spot on. I had zero concerns leading up to the wedding because she was so attentive and proactive in communicating with vendors and making sure everything ran smoothly. My husband and I were able to fully be present on the day of our wedding and truly enjoy it.

Do yourself a favor a hire this gem!

-Graciela

My destination wedding was seamlessly executed and the process was throughly enjoyable because of Mariela’s magnificent coordination. She has a wonderful way of making you feel confident during the process because she quite literally has every detail mapped out perfectly.

My initial email to Mariela was for partial planning and wedding coordination and never having planned a wedding, been to many weddings, or planned anything to this scale before, I was in need of direction. Mariela responded to my first email within one hour and within one hour and a half we were chatting on the phone.

My first interaction with Mariela made my heart flutter as she could perfectly articulate my intricate vision when I told her my dreams. I knew immediately I could confidently trust Mariela with making this day for Jack and I stunning. Mariela was thoughtful in every message to me. She knew exactly what I wanted when at times I wasn’t even sure it existed. Mariela curated the most magnificent day for not only my husband and I, but our families and friends. Mariela reviewed over every contract for me, keeping track of payments, timelines, and details. Her recommendations on vendors were truly the best of the best and the professionals were not only amazing at their jobs but wonderful people that felt like friends at our wedding.

Mariela is a talented wedding professional but now I am also lucky to call her my friend! She is truly excellent in her execution and I would recommend her services to anyone. Mariela and Etéreo Events quality is above and beyond anything you could except. You will be over the moon…

Thanks to Mariela and her team we had a perfect wedding. She organized everything perfectly and always kept us informed. We come from Germany and after 10 years we said yes to each other again in Puerto Rico. It was fantastic and everything was perfectly organized. From the speech (thanks to Jennifer) to the flowers, the beautiful beach and the great photos. We got married again with our feet in the water and will never forget this moment. We can recommend Mariela if you want it to be perfect. Thanks!

-Claudia und Felix

You shine because of the love your have for your craft of what you do for the couples who you skillfully care for on their special day. I’ll always remember what you did for my daughter, her groom, their friends traveling from all over the world & his international family. They danced in the rain, they loved the details of all you did to make it special for all of us. You just made it easy for the mother of the bride to have peace of mind even when I was thousands of miles away. Love that you can spread more love to NYC & more couples! They couldn’t be in better hands!! Success!

-Evelyn

Mariela was a golden gem to work with. She turned our special day into a memorable week for our families and guests visiting the island. Living on the West Coast, she made communication with her effortless, comfortable, and enjoyable. She was incredibly patient and flexible with our plans and helpful when we hit roadblocks of indecisiveness. She and her team were amazing on the wedding day, and we couldn't have asked for a better day.

-Jeneille & Luis

My husband and I's experience with Mariela was great from start to end! We wanted a wedding planner who steered us in the right direction and Mariela did just that. We wanted a beautiful and intimate wedding that wasn't too complex but still a night to remember and the Etereo team delivered. Mariela has a great relationship with so many vendors that she would give us just the right amount of options for us to choose from without it being overwhelming. She helped us navigate through the ups and downs of the pandemic while we were living abroad in the UK, our parents were in the USA and she was in PR. Overall, her great communication and work ethic shone through. Our day wouldn't have been possible and stress-free without her and her team!

-Viviana M.

Mariela was great to work with! She understood our vision from the first day and made sure that we kept on track throughout the planning process. She brings to the table a great vendor network and a straightforward consultative approach. Both myself and my husband had different requirements at different points and she balanced everyone’s priorities beautifully. This was also a wedding involving three cultures and many traveling from abroad. Since the wedding, many of our friends and families have told us that our wedding raised the bar moving forward. Mariela knew what we wanted and was able to deliver the exact experience and for that we thank her! 10/10

Mariela & Team are phenomenal! We are so happy with Etéreo Events and will forever be grateful to them for making our wedding dreams come true! Mariela helped us plan our wedding during COVID and navigated the process so easily! We also live in the UK so we didn’t get a chance to visit or talk to any of our vendors face to face prior to our wedding. We 1000% trusted Mariela’s judgement on everything from catering to flowers to day of she had it all covered and we couldn’t have done it without her! Thanks again Mariela!

Mariela, eres espectacular. Cuando decidimos casarnos, buscábamos una persona que respetara nuestras ideas para ese día especial, aportara todos sus conocimientos y nos llevará de la mano. Sobrepasaste todas nuestras expectativas. No solo nos guiaste por este camino, lo hiciste llevadero, fuera de estrés y te convertiste en una amiga durante todos estos meses. Te admiramos por lo profesional que eres, enfocada en tu trabajo y leal a tus palabras. No solo nosotros estábamos agradecidos y tranquilos por tu trabajo, nuestros invitados igual lo sintieron así. Gracias por ser parte de nuestra unión. ¡Te queremos!

I told her what we were looking for and she made it happen, in only 3 short weeks!

She executed my vision and brought all my dreams into reality! Mariela, you were made to plan weddings. I am so thankful for your time and commitment to make our day as special as it was.

I hired Mariela for my small elopement and she was the absolute best! I literally had to make some changes throughout this process and she was very flexible to my needs. She was always a phone call or text/email away. She managed my budget and made sure all vendors were properly paid in full and everything was on track. She is truly a caring and attentive person and I appreciate the experience she provided for my wedding.
