Colleen -

How many times can we say "Thank You"? You kept in touch with us up to the day of the wedding and made everything seem effortless. All we had to do was show up. This was truly worry free, which gave us time to just enjoy the experience of getting married. Hope you are still doing this for one of our anniversaries !!!

Thank you for helping us make our wedding plans a beautiful and very stress free experience. The ceremony at Brewers Bay was simple, romantic and very intimate! It was just what we wanted and even better than we imagined!

And my flowers were perfect too! The gorgeous Caribbean waters and sunny blue skies were the perfect background for our wedding pictures.

James & Louise B.

Hello Colleen,

Thank you very much for your great services. You helped us a lot by your advise and checking our papers at the court. You made it so easy. We had a wonderful wedding.

Best regards,

Eva & George T.

It was my dream wedding - the sun - the sand - the surf! Colleen was very sweet and had everything ready, the whole thing went off perfectly. No reason to go Bride-zilla when your wedding goes this smoothly. It may be "Simple" Island Weddings but that does not change the fact that it was also beautiful and elegant.

I highly recommend a destination wedding in St. Thomas with Colleen. Life is too crazy already - make your wedding a relaxed stress free event. You won't regret it.

Peace, love, and happiness ~

Karis & Bud S.

Colleen,

Just wanted to send you a "Heartfelt" Thank You for preparing every detail of our special day. Everything was very thoughtfully arranged. Throughout the few months before arriving in the Virgin Islands, we felt very comfortable with keeping in touch with you about any questions we had.

The wedding day was beautiful and entirely relaxing. I especially loved my pink rose bouquet that you had choosen for me.

Upon doing it all over again, I would not change a single thing about that day. We felt you were much more sentimental and caring versus having a male minister. You were truely the perfect choice for us as a minister and were a lovely wedding corrdinator also. We would love to renew our vows with you many years from now!!!!

Thanks so much...

Jeramie & Kristy F.

Colleen,

Jason and I would like to thank you for the wonderful job you did in orgranzing and performing our wedding ceremony. We were very happy with everything and were amazed by the beautiful beach location. Even better was the fact that everything was stress free. Your organization of the wedding photographer, limo driver and providing the flowers was great. Everyone loves the pictures and agrees that our idea of a beach wedding was the way to go- that we agree. Once again we thank you for everything!.

Sincerely,

Lisa and Jason S.

Hi Colleen,,

We both really wanted to thank you for our simple island wedding. It was everything and more than what we had expected. The ceremony was beautiful and touched us both tremendously. It was very laid back and stress free, which is exactly what we wanted.

The location was gorgeous, the perfect spot to get married. Our family can't believe how lucky we are to have been married at such a wonderful place.

The pictures turned out really well. I enjoy reliving that moment each time I see them. The flowers you provided were perfect. Everything turned out absolutely wonderfully! Thank you for all that you did to make our day special.

Tom and Krista D.

Dear Colleen,

Thank you so much for organizing this special event for us. The location was gorgeous, the flower arrangments you made were beautiful, and, as we wanted, it all went stress free. All of our friends and family who saw the pictures were absolutely astounded by the beauty of the place and our simple but very elegant ceremony. So many of them said that it was the right decision we made to elope to the Virgin Islands and have a low-key wedding. We certainly enjoyed it and are grateful to you for making it happen.

Best wishes from

Inna and Mark L.

Colleen,

Thank you so much for all that you did to make our day special. Your attention to details, your suggestions and options helped make the planning simple.

Duane & Karen F.

Colleen,

Working with you was a pleasure. You made all the preparation for our ceremony so easy and stress free. Thank you for making our wedding ceremony so special.

Ben & Sylwia C.

Colleen,

We had the most fantastic experience with you. We could not have asked for a more perfect ceremony. We both feel so blessed and so lucky to have met you. Thank you so much for making it such a heart warming, unforgettable day for us, our family and our friends. Each one of our friends said it was by far the best wedding they had ever been to.

Thanks

Tim and Roan L.

Colleen,

Just wanted to say thank you so much for making our special day so beautiful and special.

We moved into our new house three weeks ago and are somewhat settled.

Hope all is well with you!

Lorrie and John M.

Colleen,

We just wanted to thank you for helping us plan our wedding. It was such a relief to have someone help us through the process, especially someone with so much experience about the islands. We're so glad we chose to have a small, romantic wedding. Thanks for making it all that we wanted.

Thanks!

Becca and John S.

Hi Colleen,

We want to thank you for everything you have done for us to make our day so special. Our wedding was so easy and stress-free. From the first phone call to many e-mails that followed to organize and plan our wedding, you showed such warmth and professionalism. Everything you recommended and planned came together beautifully, from flowers to photographer to limo to the ceremony. We couldn't have asked for more. It's exactly what we dreamed of, a beautiful, serene, intimate beach wedding.

Thank you once again for making our dream come true and we will cherish the memory forever!

Christine and Robert H.

Dear Colleen,

Thank you so much for making our special day so perfect. You are trustworthy, professional, and a very genuine person. You were such a pleasure to plan the wedding with and made everything so easy. The flowers were fresh, the cake was delicious, and the photos were beautiful. We had just met you and it felt like you were part of the family. We received our photos and our marriage license promptly also. We wouldn't have changed a thing!

For anyone who is planning to have a wedding in St. Thomas, I would most definitely recommend Colleen Mader's service. Not only was she very professional , she was also very sweet and a pleasure to be around. The whole wedding party loved her and she even ended up in a wedding photo with my mother, which we love! I also forgot my purse and a special hanky that was passed down to me from my grandmother at the wedding site. I thought I'd never see them again but shortly after we returned home, I received a surprise in the mail from Colleen with my things inside!

Thank you for everything,

Mindy and Eric K.

Colleen,

I can't say enough how much working with you made me feel so at ease. You are exceptionally talented, knowledgeable and organized. Every detail from the cake to the wedding vows was perfect. I wouldn't have changed a thing! You had everything under control from day one. I truly give you credit for keeping me and my family at ease.

Planning our St. Thomas wedding with you is the best decision we ever made! I admire your talent and appreciate your timeliness in responding to all my questions even up to the day of the wedding. Your assistance, support, suggestions, and attention to detail throughout the entire process was beyond my expectations! Professionally and personally, you have a way of making the Bride feel very comfortable and relaxed.

I've already given your card to a friend looking to do a destination wedding next year! I can't say enough how perfect everything was, and how much we credit you with a beautiful start to our lives together!

A lifetime of thanks,

Tamela & Mike M.

If you are planning a wedding on St. Thomas, then Colleen Mader's service is not only the most thorough and inexpensive but the perfect complement to a wonderful event. Colleen is a true professional with an unwavering passion for a flawless ceremony !

Shareka and Edgardo S.

Colleen -

Thank you so much for the wonderful job you did for us! We can't stop talking about how relaxed and perfect our wedding day was. Since neither of us had been to St. Thomas, we had no idea where to have the ceremony. You picked the perfect spot for us. Our pictures turned out beautifully and we loved Sage!

You were very prompt and followed up with everything. Our marriage license even made if home before we did! If we had to get married all over again, we wouldn't do anything differently. Thank you for helping to make our dream wedding come true!

Ryan and Melissa K.

Dear Colleen,

We would like to thank you for planning such a beautiful wedding for us. You were so kind and courteous to us. Thank you for arranging for Julie to come to our hotel to do Kirsten's hair. She did a wonderful job. We also loved the pictures that Kelly took for us. She too did a fabulous job!

All the small details that you took into consideration for the wedding made our wedding perfect. From the romantic ceremony on the beach at Magens Bay to the beautiful flowers you put on our cake. You really made our wedding very special for us!

Sincerely,

Michael and Kirsten C.

Dearest Colleen,

We fondly thank you for helping us create the wedding day of our dreams! Your compassion and caring personality helped complete our simple, but absolutely, beautiful island wedding. From your pleasant phone conversations and emails and all of your excellent suggestions, to your perfect choice for a picturesque and romantic wedding location, everything just fell into place.

Your willingness to "get down in the sand" to take our pictures, was definitely a great added touch. Not to mention the "perfect" witnesses you found to share in our joy and happiness. You are a "true sweetheart!" Your deep emotions while reading our personalized wedding vows absolutely touched our hearts. Colleen, thank you for sharing in our most intimate expressions of love and commitment.

We recommend anyone who is considering any type of island wedding to be so honored as we have been by knowing you and having you perform our ceremony.

With all of our heart-felt thanks and best wishes ifor the future,

Karen and Tom D.

Hi Colleen,

Thanks so much for the beautiful and memorable wedding ceremony! Frank and I could not have been more pleased with the whole process. You were very helpful and sincere in your attempt to make this easy and stress-free. It was exactly what we were hoping it would be. The location was breath-taking and the pictures were beautiful.

We would recommend this as an alternative to anyone who wants to have a beautiful ceremony that is free from the many distractions of a traditional wedding. With your help, we were able to focus fully on each other and on the special meaning that this day had for us both.

Again, thank you, Colleen!

Susan & Frank H.

Colleen,

My husband and I would like to thank you for the beautiful vow renewal ceremony you arranged and preformed for us. You showed extreme professionalism through the planning stages, you were so very helpful in making suggestions and showed genuine concern for our wishes.

We didn't have to worry about anything. We only had to show up at Magens Bay, which was a breathtaking back drop for our ceremony, and you had everything ready and waiting. The cake, champagne, ceremony ... everything was absolutely gorgeous! I can't say enough good things about how special you made our day.

Kelly, our photographer, was outstanding too. She captured our vow renewal ceremony beautifully. I couldn't wait to get home and show everyone the photos.

Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Connie & Harry N.

We just wanted to thank you for making our wedding day everything we ever dreamed of. We wanted an easy and simple wedding and you made that happen for us. You were there to answer all our questions and were very helpful. Thank you so much for making our day so special!

Carrie and Bryan T.

Colleen,

Thank you for making our wedding day the wonderful day that we had dreamed it would be. You made everything so easy so we could enjoy our day without any stress. We are so lucky that we found you and your website. Your thoughtfulness and kindness made our wedding an intimate, loving occasion that I know we will both remember forever.

Thank you,

Mike & Jennifer M.

We loved our simple island wedding. Colleen, thank you so much for all your help and recommendations.

Scott & Nicci W.

Dear Sweet Colleen

From the bottom of our hearts, Ron and I want to thank you for making our wedding day such a remarkable time for us both. While we know that even you perhaps couldn't have ordered the spectacular weather we have no doubt that you would have if you could!

The ceremony was intimate in a way that we couldn't have imagined. At the last minute I questioned our decision to just have Ron, me and you there - without friends or family. When it was all said and done - it could not have been more perfect for us. Your kind and spiritual manner created an atmosphere whereby beautiful Magens Bay was our backdrop and we held Center Stage. You were the spiritual voice that guided us through our vows that united us into marriage. It was totally perfect!

Thank you again for making this so special for us.

Ron & Melinda B.

Hugs!

Colleen,

We can never thank you enough for providing us with our Dream Wedding. I had never seen the ocean before but always felt the sun, sand and water would be the perfect setting for the most important day of our lives - and you made that dream a reality for us! The setting on the beach at Magens Bay could not have been any better.

Our pictures were fabulous, the beautiful blues of the water and sky with the white sands between! They really provided an excellent window of the day for everyone back home to see. The time and patience of our photographer truly paid off, we are beaming at the chance to show everyone how beautiful the day was and how gorgeous we were.

The Video is amazing; I am truly impressed with time and effort brought forth in the editing of all the different scenes and even incorporating our favorite song. An item we will cherish forever.

We can not say enough good things about our Limo ride and driver-what a fantastic Ambassador he is for your island! After paying our fair share of Taxi fares, this was the best value of the trip. He drove us to all of the wonderful lookout points. It was especially fun pulling in along side of all the tour buses and being escorted around in VIP style. We were filled in on some island history and he was gracious enough to take our pictures at all of the gorgeous stops. We were truly impressed with the ones of us at the top of the island with Magens Bay down below us, where we had just been married within the past hour

And finally - the ceremony. You did a wonderful job uniting us in Holy Matrimony on the beach. We could not have asked for a more spectacular day; everything was perfect. Thank you again Colleen for making a dream of ours a reality.

Love,

Jim and Josy S.

Colleen,

Thank you so much for making our once-in-a-life time day so special; we would not have done it any other way. Everything was so beautiful and relaxing and we loved the location where we made our commitment to one another on the rocks ledge. Thank you so much for everything.

Erin & Ali M.
