Gillian & Michael ~ May 2010
I received a telephone call from Michael asking about my services. This couple was in the process of arranging their destination wedding in Mexico. The person whom they were working with was not very helpful and Gillian’s Mother Anita was very upset. I arranged to meet with them a few days later and they hired me on the spot. This was a very large destination wedding. Ninety – eight of their close friends and family came from all over the United States and overseas to attend this beach wedding at Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa, Mexico.
This resort is brand new and was a perfect spot for a wedding. Ana, the wedding coordinator on staff and my assistant Natalia were very helpful as we had to change the reception site at the last minute from the beach to an inside location. The ceremony took place under the chuppah on the beach as the wind wiped sand all around us. This couple could not have been more in love as Rabbi Bennett performed a very memorable ceremony. The reception had to be moved inside , but the food was amazing and everyone enjoyed watching the wedding party enjoyed dancing to the Hora. The biggest compliment I have ever gotten was by the Mother of the bride, Anita. She toasted that she could not of gotten through without me and that she loved me! How rewarding!!!
