Paula is absolutely incredible at everything she does and is such a dream to work with. We would not have made through the wedding planning process without her. Our original date was in October 2020, which obviously wasn't feasible. She helped guide us through the tumult of changing our date, rebooking our vendors, and managing the guest list, among the many, many other things that go along with rescheduling a wedding. Paula was always available as soon as we needed anything. She is exceptionally organized and professional, and is one of the warmest, kindest humans you will ever meet. Our entire

From the moment I first spoke with Paula Marrero I knew that she would be a perfect fit for my daughter and me. As I was thinking about all of the aspects of my daughter’s wedding that needed to be coordinated; everything from to out of town guests, the need for bus transportation for 200+ people and the rest, I was becoming anxious. Paula very calmly and patiently told me that my job was to let go. This was difficult for me to do as I am a former event planner myself. She stated that my role was to sit back, relax and enjoy watching my daughter get married and have the best day of her life.

Paula was absolutely wonderful to work with. We had to postpone our original 2020 wedding date and during such a difficult time for everyone, she made it seamless. When our 2021 wedding came around she again took care of every detail and ensured everything was just as we wanted. I even changed my linen choice 4 days before the wedding and they were there waiting for me :) I can't recommend Paula enough. All of guests even commented on how well run our wedding day was!

We worked with Marrero Events for almost a year leading up to our wedding date. There are so many good things about our experience working with Paula and Alison to possibly be able to enumerate here. Ever since our initial consultation, Paula understood us and our personalities perfectly, and tailored their service to our needs. They handled all of the nitty gritty stuff that we didn't need to know, but gave us full creative control over all the big picture decisions. And in some cases when they could tell we were struggling to make decisions, they helped exactly the right amount to guide us to

Paula and her team are the high caliber wedding professionals that every couple needs to make their wedding a perfect success. As a wedding photographer, I met Paula at Cliff House and work alongside her over the weekend and immediately found her to be cool, calm, collected, and perfectly organized throughout the entire day. Every wedding has a lot of moving parts, but she and her team were ready to anticipate and respond to every detail with grace, professionalism, and positive energy. She even reached out to vendors ahead of the wedding to see if there was any way she could help the vendors involved

After over 8 years in the wedding industry I had the absolute pleasure to work with Paula for a few weddings now and each one is better than the last. She's inviting, organized and helpful. She always puts the clients needs and wants before anything else. He designs are always jaw dropping, but that is surpassed by her warmth. All of my couples have implicitly trusted her and they have all had beautiful, and flawless executed events. I'm always excited to work with Paula because I know the day will be a dream and the couple will be wonderful. She's a true professional.

Paula and her team were absolutely amazing every step of the way!! After changing our wedding plan multiple times due to COVID, we decided to plan a small ceremony in our backyard. We couldn’t have made it happen without Paula!
At first I was nervous to take on planning such a big event, but her personality instantly put me at ease. Paula was extremely helpful when finding new vendors, looking at the best ones for our specific needs, and even got the new caterers to recreate our original menu (we had already chosen one at our first venue), down to appetizers! We were also worried about planning

If you’re even considering a wedding planner, look no further! Words cannot even describe Paula and her team. The level of professionalism they exemplify is rare and I am so sad to have ended our planning process because I enjoyed it so much (Not many people can say that). Not only did Paula and her team make the process SO easy but by my wedding week, everyone was truly concerned that I wasn’t stressed out. Why be stressed when you have complete confidence that your wedding planner will execute your vision perfectly. Paula was the very best support, inner voice and guide throughout this special

What can I say. Plain and simple our wedding could not have been possible without Paula and her team. My husband and I knew we needed help to make our special day happen, but I was also nervous about how to find a planner. I didnt want to find someone to help us who would just in a way add more stress and pressure to the process. By fate a family friend suggested Paula and we subsequently discovered how well we meshed. Paula is kind, efficient, and just a beautiful soul all around. She kept us on track, was there for advice, and made the process very easy, all while assuring us not to worry or

Where to even begin! My husband and I spent hours researching venues from out of state and had more questions then answers! We called Paula thinking we were just going to ask some questions and continue on our searching! From the first 5 minutes of the call we knew we had to work with her. She answered all of our MILLIONS of questions and we felt like we had been talking with a friend we had known for years!
Paula made the best connections for us and our vendors, she was spot on with her recommendations and knew the types of vendors we would want to work with! Her staff is also amazingly professional

Paula and Isabelle were instrumental to the planning and successful execution of our wedding. From weekly phone calls to patiently responding to our worried emails at all hours, solving last minute problems (like when we realized a day before the wedding that we couldn't use real candles) to thoughtfully corresponding with our vendors, Paula and Isabelle truly did it all. After choosing our venue, a small rental hall, we realized that we really had no idea how to plan a wedding on our own. Paula and Isabelle went above and beyond to make sure that we knew what we were doing and what we needed

How do I even begin to write a review for Paula Marrero and her wonderful staff, of Marrero Wedding and Events? In a word, Paula was a lifesaver. She not only managed virtually every logistical aspect of the event, but she helped hugely in navigating the emotional and psychological rollercoaster surrounding the planning of a wedding, and exponentially reduced the overall stress level.
Paula is also one of the hardest working, and most professional people I've ever done business with. She was chief advocate, coordinator, negotiator, friend, and shrink all rolled into one! One doesn't

Paula Marrero and her entire staff at Marerro Events are true professionals who know weddings better than anyone else. Their expertise is invaluable. They helped my fiance and I navigate the planning process in the weeks leading up to our wedding, including booking transportation, managing the day-of schedule, venue walk-throughs, decor and design, and so much more. On the day of the wedding, her staff kept the bride, groom, and bridal party cool, calm, and organized. They handled everything so that the day was seamless for us. We can't thank them enough for helping to make our wedding day

Marrero Events are worth their weight in gold. Paula and her team (Teresa and Isabelle) helped me pull of my dream wedding. My husband and I picked their 6 week coordinating package. They came in and were AMAZING. Paula was astounding at picking up where we left off and was able to help bring my vision to reality. We could not have pulled this off without them. This team really excelled in two areas: Day of coordination: they were even more incredible than I could have hoped. They handled some last minute emergencies and guests had no idea! They supervised everything so I could focus on the moment

Paula and Courtney were an absolute dream to work with from start to finish and I know we would not have had the dream wedding without their help. We had a large wedding at a somewhat involved venue but from the moment we established contact with MWE, we immediately felt at ease and knew the team would take care of us. Throughout the months leading up to our wedding both Paula and Courtney, as well as the team of day of coordinators, went above and beyond, answering emails and returning phone calls around the clock, helping us to negotiate the best vendor prices, even securing last minute venue

Paula and Courtney were SO AWESOME in making my wedding completely seamless!!! They did a stellar job making my husband and me feel totally comfortable passing off all of our vendor projects over to them and handled every last detail for us on the days leading up to our wedding, so we did not have to worry about a thing, when the day finally came. There is no way we could have survived the day without their aid -- there are so many details and nuances you'd never imagine even existed, when it comes down to the logistics of your wedding day -- it would be a huge mistake not to bring Paula and

We have had the pleasure of working with Marrero Events many times over the years. Paula Marrero is one of the very best event planners and visionaries in the event planning business in this region. Her weddings are spectacular, her clients love her and are so appreciative of all she does to capture and deliver what they want in a wedding. Paula always has the clients best interest first and foremost, she is committed to her clients vision and wishes. She is capable of planning any sized event not just weddings but social, corporate or fund raising celebrations. No client is too small, not

I had the pleasure of working with Paula Marrero of Marrero Events in planning my wedding. She was a font of terrific creative ideas on everything from vendors to logistics to decor, a great problem solver, and a masterful diplomat between all the various family factions, each of which had their own idea of what our wedding should be. She recognized early on what kind of role I wanted to have in the process and adjusted her input accordingly. Day of, she kept people calm and was very helpful.
I don't have anything more specific to say about the wedding itself because she did her job so
