I am not sure even where to start. Amelia was a one-of-a-kind wedding planner. She made every vision I had come to life. She handled my type A personality and crazy ideas with a positive attitude(always) and a smile on her face. She is the kindest person and one with a knack for planning. She could read my mind and created my dream wedding on a budget. If you are looking for a wedding planner, ask for Amelia with Karla Casillas group. She will not let you down and she will calm every nerve. Thank you to her and her team for a spectacular wedding weekend.

Karla Casillas & Co and Faby SAVED us during our wedding planning process! From the very first call with them in March when I was panicked and stressed - to our wedding date, Faby and her whole team truly cared about making our wedding day everything we wanted and more! Faby is so sweet, organized, proactive and helpful. She made sure to follow up with me on a weekly basis and was very clear on what she needed from me and by when. I felt so comfortable voicing my opinion and asking her any question I had. Faby and Main Event Cabo made by wedding vision come to life with their gorgeous floral arrangements and décor - they literally can do anything! Even up until the wedding date, I was able to talk to her and even vent to her as a friend! Faby and Isabel made our wedding day perfect. They made sure every detail was perfected, any request we had was implemented and they make sure the day of goes smoothly in terms of timeline. They also made sure we had fun along the way because it's so easy to get bogged down by all the little things and forget how special of a time it is. I was so sad when our wedding was over because I knew it meant I wouldn't get to talk to Faby and her uplifting spirit on a weekly basis! I know most resorts come with a free wedding planner of some sort, but NOTHING can compare the quality of service Karla Casillas & Co provided. My only regret is not hiring them from the start when we picked our wedding venue and resort. We had a unique situation where we hired Faby with only a few months left until our wedding date, because nothing was going right with our resort's wedding planning team. Had I known truly how AMAZING Faby and her team would be, we would have hired them from the very start of our wedding planning process in 2018. To all future brides - hiring Karla Casillas & Co to plan your wedding is the BEST choice and worth every penny! Your wedding will be an absolute dream and you will have the BEST staff in Cabo planning your dream wedding. Love ya so much, Faby & Team!!! xoxo - Nikki

What a ride. Planning a wedding is no joke! My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Karla's team with Amelia being our head planner and they did a PHENOMENAL job. The planning process was quite stressful but they helped us keep calm and reassured us anytime we went off the rail. Any issues or last minute changes that came up were addressed and handled promptly. Things went absolutely perfect on the day of the wedding and during all of our events surrounding the wedding day. If you're still searching for a wedding planner, look no further. You truly are in the best hands with this team of amazing women. Amelia, Karla, Sara and Fernanda, we want to thank you for putting together the most beautiful and memorable day of our lives and for addressing all of our concerns along the way. We never thought we could have our dream wedding but you all made it possible.

I've started to write this review maybe ten times, and every time I had to stop because I couldn't find the rights words to describe just how grateful I am for the indescribably perfect wedding that Minerva, Cony, and the Karla Casillas & Co. team created for us. My husband (!) and I got married in front of 50 of our dearest friends on January 18, 2020, in Todos Santos, and every single person who was at the wedding has reached out to us with the most effusive praise: "It was the most beautiful wedding I've ever been to!" "The most well organized wedding I've ever seen!" "I go to a lot of events, and this was hands down the best one I've ever been to, down to the last detail." All of that praise belongs to the Karla Casillas & Co. team. Our lead planner, Minerva, was incredibly organized, kind, and professional. She presented us with fantastic options for our vendors, and she kept the planning process on schedule by sending us gentle reminders to make final decisions when we were too busy or distracted to focus on wedding planning. On the day of the wedding, she was absolutely key. She brought a calm and centered presence to the "chaos." Whenever anyone had a question, I would just respond, "ask Minerva!" and I knew Minerva would handle it, no matter what it was. I can honestly say we didn't feel an ounce of stress on the day of the wedding, and that was entirely because of Minerva. I also can't say enough good things about the design Cony created and the remarkable efficiency her team demonstrated in creating an absolutely magical setting for the wedding. Finally--but most importantly--Minerva, Cony, and the whole team are also just really, really good people that I'm honored to now call my friends. In short, HIRE THEM. It will be the best decision you make.

We were immediately impressed by Karla and Amelia, and how quickly the grasped our vision our our wedding. Thanks to their efforts, it was everything we hoped it would be! We primarily worked with Amelia throughout the planning process - she is detail-oriented, quick to respond, and did a fantastic job of keeping us on track. Thank you Karla and Amelia for making our wedding dreams come true!

We spent about a year planning our wedding with Karla Casillas & Co. I knew planning a wedding in a different country, language & time zone would require more time than my career allowed so hiring a local wedding planner had to be in the budget. I interviewed a couple different companies & landed on KC&co. They worked with our budget & helped us create a unique and custom wedding, tailored to our taste, never sacrificing quality. I’m a very hands-on person, so letting go of control was difficult for me but our wedding planner Pamela made sure all the boxes were checked and brought our vision to life! Let me tell you, stepping off the plane, knowing everything is covered is worth EVERY peso! The last thing we wanted to do was run around Cabo, trying to make sure all the details are covered. Nope, we just sat by the pool until our wedding day and rolled into the very best day of our life. Thank you Pamela & Karla Casillas!

For anyone looking for a planner that instantly feels like family, look no further! Pamela with Karla Casillas is simply the best. She made the wedding vision and planning process incredibly personal (not transactional at all). She is warm, creative and truly loves what she does and was completely dialed into the success of our special day. Weddings are incredibly personal and Pamela and the team at Karla Casillas took our day as seriously as we did. They were upfront and honest about pricing, were willing to work within budget and just so warm and welcoming. We can't say enough good things about this team, the platform they use to plan and the entire process from preplanning to on site execution. Just the best... we want to do it all over again with Pamela and team! <3
Response from Karla Casillas & Co.:
Dear Lisa,
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are all so happy at Karla Casillas and Co. to have been part of your planning team. Our Pamela is amazing!! She is walking around with a big smile because she made your day special!
XOXO
From all of us at Karla Casillas and Co.

I have not received my photos from Jessica just sneak peak which I will email you after this.
As far as how I felt about your company’s wedding planning? I cannot thank you enough! You executed my vision and made it the most magical stunning wedding I’ve ever been to. Pamela you are not only easy to work with but a pleasure. You communicated with me throughout the entire process and made my life so much easier allowing me to actually enjoy the day. Your are kind, professional, and a problem solver. Whatever you need from Daniel and I including reviews or anything you just let us know! Thank you again! Next time we visit we would like to meet with you for dinner.

To All,
Me and my wife are from the Bay Area, California, and discovered Karla Casilla & Co who immediately got back to us and held our hand every step of the way. Initially, we were a bit lost and confused and had many questions and concerns in which Karla immediately brought calmness as all her responses were exactly inline with what we needed to hear. They are a very professional company that keep you informed every step of the way. They do not nickle and dime you, they are flexible and have an amazing web platform for their clients and have a great working relationship with the best vendors that they have hand selected and trusted. There was nothing that was not thought of, remembered or covered. They basically took ALL the worry away from us and held our hand from literally start to finish allowing us to have the most beautiful wedding ever!
In particular, we worked with Pamela, who was assigned to our planning and was our main point of contact. She was extremely patient, prompt in replying to e-mails, calls, and answered any and all questions and was very patient and assisted us when we changed our mind a few times. She was extremely thorough and beyond professional. She kept us in line, worked with the vendors, planned every step from start to finish and was literally present for each and every event over the course of our entire stay. She made us feel at peace, and we did not have to worry about anything because Pamela was there and was attentive and ensured everything literally went smoothly during our entire stay. I can not explain in words how professional and thorough Pamela is, I mean literally everything went perfectly all because of Karla Casillas & Co and more so because of Pamela. If I could give more than 5 stars I would! And even after the wedding, she still followed up, and has let us know that she is there for any questions, such as delivery of photos from photographer etc. As I mentioned, they are there with you from start to finish even until every deliverable is delivered with satisfaction.
A sincere review and feedback from someone who has high expectations and a sense of class,
Sandeep

The Karla Casillas wedding planners are first class. They helped me from start to finish and the end product was exactly how I had imagined it. We were living in Atlanta while planning our dream wedding in Cabo and it was helpful having someone who actually lives there to assist in making decisions. We also wanted to plan events outside of the wedding day for our guests and this team jumped right in to make our sunset cruise, welcome party and rehearsal dinner perfect. Pamela was our planner and she was very personable and available whenever needed. She grasped my vision right away so I knew I could trust her with executing. Thank you Pamela for making our day unforgettable!

Our experience working with Karla Casillas & CO was absolutely amazing. We worked directly with Minerva from day one for site visits up until us leaving Cabo after our wedding almost a year and a half later! Our wedding hit right as the pandemic started so we had to postpone 3 times. Minerva and her team worked with all our vendors to make sure it happened and made each transition very smooth. We could not have done it without them and their team. We worked with Cony on the design of our wedding and she listened to everything we wanted and made it all happen.
We are still on cloud 9 about our wedding and everyone keeps talking about how beautiful our wedding was. I just wanted to thank you guys for creating the wedding of my dreams. Everything was soooooo PERFECT and Beautiful.
I would HIGHLY recommend their team. They made planning a wedding in another country very easy, even through a pandemic.

Minerva was our head wedding planner and I cannot say enough amazing things about her! She planned our dream wedding!!! We had to postpone our initial date and she made the process so incredibly easy - I did not have to worry about anything! Having a wedding during a pandemic is full of uncertainties and Minerva handled every situation calmly and always assured me not to worry our day would be amazing and it definitely was! Our guest list was constantly changing, even days before our wedding and Minerva and everyone on her team still made the table look great, and was able to update our seating chart last minute. Our wedding ran perfectly on time, and everyone had the best time! I did not have to worry about anything on our wedding day! I don’t know what we would have done with Minerva! She’s the best!!

I recently had my wedding in Cabo San Lucas with The Karla Casillas Team as my wedding planners and could not be any more happier with their services. My lead planner was Minerva and event stylist was Cony. They literally exceeded my expectations! Planning a wedding during this time (pandemic) was very challenging to say the least. As a bride my emotions were up and down, we struggled with a lot of uncertainty and stress leading up to the wedding and the whole team at Karla Casillas ( especially my lead wedding planner, Minerva) Always reassured me and kept my mind calm! We dealt with a lot of last minute changes and revisions, but they were always able to handle everything smooth and quickly. Their communication was always done in a timely manner, which was so important to me since I was so far away. Everyone who I came into contact with was friendly and very accommodating. They guided me every step of the way with their expertise. Minerva has a very calm demeanor (ideal for a wedding planner) which helped me trust her completely with the wedding planning.
When I was finally able to see my wedding come to life I felt like I was dreaming! All of the attention to detail and my decor vision was exactly how I imagined. Cony really listens to her brides to make sure they are happy with all aspects of design. I didn’t have to worry about anything because I knew that there was nothing to be missed with this team behind me. The last thing I wanted to do at my wedding was stress and the team at Karla Casillas and Co allowed me to relax and enjoy the weekend with my guests and new husband. I am forever grateful and will never forget them for being a part of such a memorable moment in my life.

Pamela - thank you so much for the most amazing services I can dream of. Not only did you put my dream wedding into reality, but you succeeded in making the best weekend of my life and my guests. Everything was so perfect and it was all because of you. You came three weeks ago, and felt like you were with me the whole entire year of planning. All of you at Karla Casillas and main event have blown me away to perfection. Everyone can’t stop talking about how amazing this wedding was and without you and the team it would never happen. Thank you again and again and again.
Luz Maria - your venue was unbelievable. It was so beautiful, perfect and the food WAS AMAZING. Everyone told me it was the best food they’ve ever had a wedding which is the best feeling in the world. All of the workers were soooo amazing and helpful they always made sure I was taken care of as well as my guests. They were all dancing with us and just made the wedding the best day ever. The suite was great and had a great experience. Thank you for making t happen!
Best

I was amazed and in awe of the beautiful wedding mine turned out to be. Everything was my taste from the cutlery, to the drapery, to the flowers and decorations. Ivory, blush, and gold turned out to be the perfect color pallet. Thank you to Fabiola to making this all happen. All my guests said it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to! If i had one wish it would be to only live out this night again. I had a perfect fairy tale wedding. Thank you Karla Casillas and Co.

Karla Casillas and Minerva were an absolutely amazing group of wedding planners. From start to finish, every element of the planning process was world class, well thought out, flexible, accommodative and dreamy. They work with the best vendors, they know all the venues and they are well respected everywhere…most importantly, they can make ANYTHING happen. We were one of the couples who had to plan our wedding through the midst of an incredibly complex and uncertain pandemic environment. They navigated us through every step with poise and reassurance…we never missed a beat. They managed our budget and delivered everything we wanted: our flowers were exactly how we wanted them, our musicians were outstanding, photographers exceptional, the setup was heavenly, and every single detail was even better than we had ever imagined. We also had a number of cultural elements that were unique to our countries and ethnic backgrounds… this was no issue whatsoever and they sourced every element what we needed. Lastly, on the wedding day, they showed up and coordinated every single event and moment down to the second with smooth execution. Our guests raved about the wedding and it will always be magical. The amount of time, stress and coordination we saved by working with Karla and Minerva is massive…but the output of what they pulled together was truly priceless. We recommend anyone, with any budget for their wedding to work with Karla and Minerva. They are true professionals and I couldn’t imagine doing this without them. Thank you so much!

Pamela and her team knocked it out of the park for our wedding! It was magical. We had to put a lot of trust in her because we didn’t even get to visit the venue or do a tasting or anything before the wedding because we had a baby in the middle of our engagement- and she did AMAZING! Every detail was perfect. She captured my vision perfectly! I was horrible about sending inspiration photos and doing Pinterest boards, and she STILL was able to capture my vision! I’m in awe of Pamela and her team. One thing I also want to mention that warmed my heart... when it was time for the baby and toddler to get in the shuttle to get home, Sarah (the assistant planner) helped carry the toddler up to the shuttle! How sweet is that?! They literally went above and beyond in every possible way. Could not have been more perfect!!! Xoxo

Where do I even begin - Karla and her team are so amazing!! Minerva was our wedding planner, and we couldn’t have loved her more!! Besides the fact that she is super sweet and beyond pleasant to work with - she makes it feel like no request is too crazy or too ridiculous! As with all brides recently, we had many changes to our wedding plans, and Minerva was there all along the way. She made sure our vision came to life, and it was even more perfect than I could have imagined! From the big things to the little details, she was on top of it all - including making sure that my “must have” little burro was there and ready in his flower crown when I walked down the aisle :)! We had a small elopement with 8 guests, and she was so kind to go to the store herself to get some snacks and drinks for the welcome bags that I couldn’t travel with. Minerva made everything so seamless our whole weekend, and I definitely couldn’t have done it without her!! I HIGHLY recommend Karla and her team if you are looking to get married in Cabo!! Best money you’ll spend in the wedding process!

I can't thank Faby enough for keeping me from losing my mind during this process! I wish I would have hired her sooner! She was always calm and reassuring (even when I was not so calm). Our wedding was beautiful and everyone was so impressed with the décor and how seamless everything was. Every one of my guests said it was the best wedding they've ever been to. I couldn't have done it without Faby and the Casillas team. My décor ad flowers were amazing. I'm still just so obsessed with our special day.

Well hello down there lovely lady🌹Lisa,
Hayward and I both want to thank you from the bottoms of our hearts for the day you planned for us. How you went over and above to make our wedding day so special. I know Karla was probably wondering why we wanted something so authentic or as close to authentic Mexico as us Canadians are aloud to have but we both have had some of the most special times in our lives in Mexico so found our wedding day should also be part of those memories. We had so much fun at Casa Natalia. They treated us like royalty and the food was fantastic. We all drank way to much, ate too much and all went home with a lot of laughs. It was all so unbelievably special. You will always be remembered very warmly in our hearts for the day we had.
Your friends Vonnie & Hayward
PS. I hope to meet again one day and you have a Merry Christmas.

Words can't describe how incredibly happy and lucky I am to have worked with Karla and her team. Planning a destination wedding can be difficult and stressful, since I was so far away. You really have to trust your planner and team.
Pamela was my lead planner, and she's the absolute best. She's so funny and sweet, just like one of my girlfriends! Everything leading up to the wedding (communication, juggling ideas, and organization) was superb. The wedding itself was my dream come true; everything turned out amazing, the guests were happy, and my husband and I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. I absolutely recommend Karla and her services to any brides to be that want a perfect wedding in Cabo. Thank you!

Karla Casillas and team really exceed any expectations we had. I was a very picky and difficult Bride to work with, who had lots of ideas and out of the box requests. Amelia, my head planner, did an amazing job staying on deadline, always being available and finding solutions to any requests we had. I was so amazed by how everything turned out. our wedding got featured so many times. Planning a destination wedding is not easy, but Karla and her team can definitely help to make everything much easier for you. We loved working with them, and I recommend them to anyone who wants to have an extraordinary destination wedding, in a heartbeat. Can't thank you guys enough!
Response from Karla Casillas & Co.:
Dear Behamin + Bahram,
We miss you! Thank you for your kind words, Amelia and I and well the entire team has a big smile on there faces as we speak.
Thank you for your trust and your beautiful, crazy ideas!!!
XOXO
Karla + Amelia and the rest of the team

I could not have asked for a more perfect and well-planned wedding. With a destination wedding and so many events on multiple days, it can be stressful but Karla and her team were always available and making my life easier with their expertise. All the guests had such a great time they can't stop talking about it!
Pamela- I am so grateful to have you as my head planner. You have made this experience better than I could have ever expected and I appreciate all that you do. I got so many compliments about how calm I was for being the bride the whole weekend and I always replied: "That's because I have an amazing planner." The ceremony and reception were absolutely amazing and I was blown away with how beautiful everything came together. Thank you for seeing my vision and making it come to life!

Carolina and the team at Karla Casillas and Co. were instrumental in bringing our dream wedding to life. It was amazing to work with such an experienced group of people to guide you through this very uncertain time and process. Many of our guests mentioned that our wedding was one of the most organized and beautiful weddings they had ever been to. This was all thanks to the behind the scenes work that Carolina and the KC team put in. Carolina was incredibly kind, patient, and receptive to our requests. She was our advocate throughout the entire process and went above and beyond to reduce our stress in the days leading up to the wedding. Without her, we couldn't have pulled off such a beautiful event. It was truly a pleasure getting to work with this amazing group of people. It will forever be a fond memory in our minds.

I am beyond grateful for everything my wedding planner (Faby) did for my unforgettable destination wedding in Cabo.
She took care of absolutely everything, went completely above and beyond and made sure my wedding was a massive success.
Her response time, ideas and follow up during the planning process was truly remarkable. She was an absolute joy to work with and made my wedding planning experience from start to finish SO much fun. I wasn't stressed or worried one time.
She met my budget flawlessly and customized our decor so that it was still extremely beautiful and tasteful. Her communication will all my vendors was a seamless experience for me.
Her assistance and leadership during my 3-part wedding weekend was unbelievably amazing. Literally everything went perfectly...my guests were sincerely impressed.
Not only all of that, but she was fun, communicative, funny and just a joy to work with.
I can't say enough about Karla & Co. I would 10 times out of 10 recommend them to any bride who wants to have a magical wedding.
Love you Faby!! XOXO
Response from Karla Casillas & Co.:
Avery + Chris,
Thank you for your kind words! Our Fabulous Faby rocks!!
You and Chris are heaven sent! and can't thank you enough for trusting your Los Cabos destination wedding to us and making us part of your planning team.
XOXO
