The Yucatán Peninsula or the Mexican Caribbean encompasses so many incredible and beautiful places like the island of Cozumel, the colonial city of Merida, the historical Campeche, the exquisite beaches, Mayan sites and wedding choices for all budgets in Cancun, Riviera Maya and so much more.

A destination wedding in the Yucatán Peninsula offers a stunning backdrop and unique destination for your wedding that is close to home.  A destination wedding offers you and your guests a 4 day experience that you and they will talk about for years.

title pic Why I’m the BEST Wedding & Events Planner

Posted by Zuriana on November 29, 2011

A friend of mine shared with me an opportunity to work with Preston Bailey. We all know he is the King of beautiful and jaw dropping events right?! I thought I’d share with you my bid to be a part of Preston Bailey’s team. It’s the same reason you would want to hire me to help you plan your ideal event…read more below.

Hello Mr. Bailey,

Thank you for the opportunity to share whom I think is the best Wedding & Events Planner. I am nominating myself, Holly Blackett of Zuriana’s Elegant Occasions as the best Wedding & Events Planner in the Maryland, District of Columbia, and Northern Virginia area. This year I expanded my role to be the best destination wedding and honeymoon expert in Mexico and the Caribbean. To achieve this goal earlier this year I changed my title to Director of Romance Destination Weddings & Honeymoons. I’m the best Wedding & Events Planner for a number of reasons:

  • I provide exceptional customer service and work hard to always exceed my client’s expectations,
  • I work hard to ensure each client has the dream wedding or special event they have always envisioned, and
  • I ensure each event is as flawless as I can make it.
  • I am also passionate about my dream career as Director of Romance Destination Weddings & Honeymoons.

In fact, I held down another full time job for five years and worked on weddings and events in the evenings and weekends as a volunteer and then for a small stipend in order to gain the experience I needed to excel as a Wedding & Events Planner. In May I was interviewed because of the passion I display for my work. Please feel free to read: http://www.passioncopilot.com/?p=594.

In summary, I would be honored to be a part of a team to assist you with upcoming weddings and special events. Thank you for the opportunity.

In excellence,

Holly Blackett
Director of Romance Destination Weddings & Honeymoons
Zuriana’s Elegant Occasions

I hope Preston Bailey chooses me to be a part of his team. I hope you choose me to help you plan a dream wedding or special event as well as a dream destination wedding and honeymoon.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!
