I cannot recommend Mayra and her team enough! We planned our Florida wedding from New York, and I could not imagine doing it without Mayra's help, especially as we got closer to ou...
r wedding date. Mayra was incredibly organized, attentive, and there was no detail that went unnoticed. She was responsive, answered all of my questions, and was always so lovely to speak to. Mayra connected with all of our vendors and created a detailed and thoughtful wedding day schedule based on what we wanted out of our day. The week leading into the wedding, she kept us calm and reassured that everything would turn out perfectly and she was absolutely right. Our wedding weekend went off flawlessly, from start to finish. We are so thankful to have worked with Myra and her team, and she really helped make our wedding weekend the best weekend of our lives!
If you want to feel more relaxed on your wedding day, then hire Mayra and her team to help prepare you for the big day! Her and her team paid attention to the smallest details like...
where the cocktail hour was held and created a detailed timeline of events so that I and the wedding party knew exactly where to be and when. She met with all of the vendors and provided coordination and direction so that all services seamlessly integrated. Her high level of professionalism was shown when she communicated with other vendors and the way she spoke to my family/the guests. My favorite part of her five-star service is when we returned to the bridal suite exhausted after the long day and all the flowers and gifts were already in the room. She is kind and has a strong ability to solve problems in a tactful manner. For example, my father can't walk on his own but she found a way with the help of my brother's for him to walk his only daughter down the aisle on the beach. This company and service is worth every penny and Mayra’s years of experience in the industry really made our special day one to remember until the end of time. I can’t thank her enough for all she did for us and her calm, supportive personality.
Look no further, you need Mayra and her team for your wedding!
I met Mayra over 3 years ago for my sister-in-laws' wedding. From the moment we met, I knew when it was my turn , sh...
e would be my planner.
Fast forward to when I got engaged, she was one of the first vendors I called to confirm her availability and in hopes it would be a YES.
I did not need help planning the wedding, as I am super detailed and enjoy bringing my vision to life. However, I for sure knew I needed her for month of. She was provided me a vendor list, checked in through out the year and when it came time to the month of, she was extremely organized, detailed and communicative. She would respond to me when she said she would which I appreciate. Through the wedding planning, you quickly realize that your event is not the priority to all vendors but Mayra proved me wrong.
As I mentioned, I am extremely detailed and when my spouse and I spoke to vendors, multiple vendors acknowledge how nice, respective, detailed and easy it was to work with Mayra.
The week off is pretty crazy to say the least. No matter how much you plan, things go wrong. Linens and dance floor showed up with wrong color, she took care of it immediately. I didn't even know the things that were happening behind the scenes on the day of.
I would full heartedly hire Mayra and EY Events again in a heart beat. Don't look past getting a coordinator or planner, you won't regret it. Make it part of your budget.
Thank you Mayra and the EY girls for allowing us to be fully present and cherish the most important day of our lives!
Mayra made it her mission to make sure my wedding was a true fairytale. She succeeded 100%, not one thing went wrong the whole day, I was truly speechless! I can’t thank her and he...
r team enough for making sure the day went effortlessly. Mayra also made sure as the weeks and days got closer that we had everything we needed and all details were seen through! I would highly recommend to anyone 100 times! Mayra you are such an amazing kind soul and again thank you for all your work!
Mayra starts off amazingly, full of energy and good spirits and positive affirmations all the way through the planning process. She gets in touch with vendors, event-coordinator, a...
nd attends phone and Zoom calls. She has you fill out all kinds of lists and asks for floor/setting plans. Wonderful! She always has words of encouragement to minimize stress and reminds you she and her staff are great at what they do and to leave everything in their hands! But BEWARE...
My wife and I spent 6 months meticulously planning our daughter's wedding. We hired Mayra and her company based on reviews to handle the last 3 months of planning. Timelines, specific seating charts/plans, vendor selections, and processional and music selections were all discussed and updated up to the last minute. As this was a large wedding of 150 guests being held outside in the evening, her staff's responsibilities/duties were discussed and determined. However, on the day of the event, it was as if we were dealing with a 'completely' different person! Mayra never introduced us to any of her mysterious staff, aside from one gentleman introducing himself hours later to us as a helper working with Mayra.
Both my wife and I were very stressed during the event as Mayra seemed to be in over her head, running from one issue to another, with no assistance we could see. As issues arose, we addressed our concerns with Mayra and asked that she take care of them. She would smile kindly and proceed to provide an excuse not to correct something, often saying it was too late or passing blame to a vendor. This was odd as all vendors knew that Mayra was in charge and that she had the last word in any situation as per our previous vendor meeting/conversation the week before. All vendors were provided the same timeline and seating charts/plans by Mayra and knew she was in charge. She merely needed to remind them of this and tell them what to do if things went awry.
It was all my wife and I could do to keep smiles on our faces in front of our daughter, pretending everything was perfect and wonderful. Although, it is rather hard to ignore 125 guests being served their dinner on the lawn in the dark, or to not notice the wilted, petal-dropping flowers of entire bridal party's bouquets, or to have the late-night Café Bar for our guests shut down and removed before they had a chance to utilize it before making their way to their cars. Of note: Mayra provided MC services during our reception dinner (for an additional $200) but originally told us that these services would be performed by one of her colleagues who inexplicably was not present. When questioned about this, Mayra said that both my wife and I had ‘misunderstood’ her emails and Zoom conversations and that there was no ‘colleague’ to perform the MC work for the evening, only her. Right…
Believe us when we tell you, the lack of attention, service, and professionalism during my daughter's wedding indicated to us that Mayra and her company's mission statement, "Our mission has remained the same for the past 13 years; to take a vision and bring it to life while ensuring an enjoyable planning phase. Our clients deserve it all! We make sure the day they have always dreamed of is realized and free of the unwanted stress..." is tragically inaccurate and she has proven NOT to be the 'totally prepared' wedding planner that she promised us she would be. If you have a large wedding or event planned with many moving parts, EY Events is not for you!
Mayra is amazing! She made our destination wedding stress free, perfect, and exactly what we were looking for. She had answers to every question I had along the way, and really mad...

dding and she found an iphone repair place, had it ubered to them, fixed the screen, and ubered back to the hotel within an hour! Rain delay came in last minute and she had an amazing back-up venue that looked even better than what we had imagined on the first venue!! Highly recommend!
Mayra and her team are the absolute best!! I cannot thank her enough. My husband and I had a really unique vision for our Miami Style wedding and Mayra always had a vendor connec...
tion ready for us no matter what. Aside from her amazing vision and event planning expertise, she was there for me as a bride through all the nerve wracking parts of the actual wedding day and she made me feel so comfortable and confident. We will ABSOLUTELY be working with EY Events in the future for any parties, showers etc. - they are truly angels on earth!!
Mayra was perfect!! She become ME on our most important day!
Professional, courteous and always with a big smile, she managed the guests and the timeline like a pro!

I cannot imagine our wedding without Mayra and Exclusively Yours Events. We planned our Miami wedding remotely from Chicago, and by “we” I mean mostly Mayra — my now husband and I...
basically just selected locations and vendors, which Mayra also provided a super helpful list of, and trusted her with the rest. We are SO grateful that from our first conversation, we immediately knew we could trust Mayra to cross every T and dot every I, while also having fun and genuinely enjoying the process. She made our vision sparkle in a way that far exceeded our expectations, and we truly had minimal stress because of that. We were able to really be present and enjoy our wedding day, in large part because of Mayra. Would recommend her for anything! Thank you for making our wedding the best day ever, Mayra!
My mom and I thought we could handle everything for the wedding on our own but got some advice to hire a wedding planner to take care of everything the day of the wedding. Our flor...
ist actually told us about Mayra and had nothing but great things to say about her, how professional she is, and how great she is to work with. From the moment we spoke with Mayra, we knew that hiring her was going to be essential. She took over immediately, helped us through things we didn't even know we had to do, and was so kind and understanding the whole time. Mayra and her partner Brooke made all of the planning so much smoother, taking care of every small detail and communicating with all of our vendors so that things were nothing short of perfect come wedding day. Brooke was there the day of the wedding, on top of every little thing, making our vision a reality, and truly allowing us to enjoy ourselves the whole time. She eased my mind every step of the way, got me anything and everything I needed, made adjustments when necessary, and radiated happiness through it all. I truly cannot even express how thankful I am for Mayra, Brooke, and Leo for all of their help, their professionalism, their expertise, and their kindness. We couldn't have pulled it off without them and will forever be recommending them to anyone and everyone! I can confidently say hiring this team was the best decision we made for the wedding!
Mayra was a Godsend! Planning a destination wedding in under a month was easy thanks to her. We particularly appreciated her attention to detail and her responsiveness. She was a...
lways just a call away! She was able to suggest the perfect vendors for our style and budget. Mayra also went far above what was required by collecting our cake & flowers and even lending us one of her personal vases! Needless to say, we highly recommend her!
To say that Mayra was great would be an understatement. She took care of everything from start to finish and made it so myself and my wife didn’t have a worry in the world. I highl...
y recommend her. Simply the best.
From the first moment we talked to Mayra I felt relived. We planned our wedding ourselves and hired Mayra for a day of coordinator. That was the best decision we made! She and her ...
crew were amazing. If I need anything during my wedding they were on it. I felt so special and I felt relaxed that they had everything under control. Mayra answered all of our questions. I had one detail I wanted in my wedding and she remembered it and made sure it was done correctly. She was attentive, polite and could get anyone’s attention if need be. She also made sure I brought home all of my belongings as it is a crazy day and you will loose track of items. I could go on and on, but I highly suggest Mayra and her crew and I wish we booked her to plan our wedding. It would of been less stressful.
Thank you so much Mayra!! You were amazing and made my dream wedding become a reality,
