To say that Valarie saved my wedding is an understatement. After being "dropped" by another company in the most unprofessional manner (over email) because I asked too many question...

s (not bridezilla style just normal stuff) less than 2 months before my wedding in late April, I called SPBC run by Valarie Waddell in desperation. She immediately set me at ease, gave me some options (better than what I originally had) and sent me a proposal with everything I wanted that same evening. We literally had my whole wedding planned in about 4 days and with such a better option than with the original planner. She was patient, kind and the folks she works with including Pastor Dave and his wife, Julie, Freddy Rodriguez photography, and of course, the folks at Southern Wave Sailing charters were all amazing and took care of everything for us so that all we had to do was worry about getting married. We couldn't have been happier with how this turned out. I, for one, am glad things happened the way they did and we were left in Valarie's most capable hands. Thank you for making our wedding most memorable, we are forever grateful!

When I arrived at the beach to start the ceremony I was like any bride, nervous and slightly worried about the details. Valerie was like a light at the end of the tunnel and instan...

tly made all my fears go away. She was so calming, so confident and so on point with everything we had asked. She made everything beautiful and I couldn’t have asked for a better planner or better person. She’s amazing inside and out. Her communication with us in planning was perfect and she made every effort to make our day perfect and stress free. You’ll find no one better to plan your perfect day!!

We got married on the beach of south padre island. Being destination, it was stressful to not be able to see and tour everything before the big day. Valerie made the experience so ...

carefree and smooth. We had to change our wedding date and she did everything to make sure we still had all I asked for! She kept me updated on my flowers, my cake and all the decorations! All we had to do was show up! I couldn’t have asked for anything more Valerie was amazing she even held my 2 yr old that refused to walk down the aisle. Thanks for everything!

We live 8 hours away and the dream wedding our daughter and son in law had of being Married on the beach was able to come true thanks to Valarie, her expertise, and her team. As a ...

mother of the bride, it took some faith to have every detail tended to and not be able to be there to do it myself. Valarie totally knocked it out of the park. Everyone on her team was Not just professional, but personal as well. The whole ceremony was well organized and timely; flowers were gorgeous;cake was delicious as well as beautiful; photographer was efficient and took beautiful pictures; the DJ was attentive to our requests and fun! We chose South Padre Brewery for their reception up on the deck and they were also fantastic and personal. Our family of about 50 made some memories and had an awesome family vacation as we celebrated the marriage of our children. Definitely recommend Valarie and her expertise 💞

had.

Valarie did a wonderful job coordinating our wedding ceremony. She and Bill were so accommodating when coastal rains threatened to cancel our sunrise wedding on the beach in SPI. W...

e all watched the weather forecast and when it cleared, we proceeded from our condo to the beach and the ceremony began. It drizzled a fine mist for about the first half hour, but she took a lot of pictures before the ceremony and we have many terrific memories shared that will last a lifetime. I am so glad we chose Valarie! We selected non-professional portraits and were blown away with the quantity, quality and variety of the selection. Thanks, Valarie & Bill, for making our second wedding extra special! Love, The Ritchie Family
