Destination Wedding Planner

The planner behind the magic!

Hi, I’m Leanne, and I’m so thankful the algorithm brought us together!

A Bride & Groom who just got married.

Based on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic by way of the San Francisco Bay Area, I’m a destination wedding planner who thrives on creating unforgettable events that celebrate you and your guests. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of turning your unique vision into a day filled with love, joy, and seamless memories.

If you know me, you definately know that I’ll take any excuse to indulge in popcorn and a good movie, and I may or may not get a secret thrill when a stranger compliments my parallel parking skills.

Before diving into destination weddings, I spent over 10 years in the radio industry, working in promotions and events. With a background as a performer—both in New York and the Bay Area—I’ve learned how to think on my feet, pay attention to the smallest details, and make every moment shine.

Now, I’m here to help you navigate your wedding planning journey abroad, from start to finish. My mission? To help you avoid the stress, anxiety, and mistakes that can steal the joy from your big day. I’ll guide you through every phase with insider tips, industry know-how, and a whole lot of support. Together, we’ll make sure your Dominican wedding is everything you’ve dreamed of—and more.

Let’s make your walk down the aisle as exciting and joyful as it’s meant to be!

  • “She cared about listening to what we wanted”

    Book Leanne right now!! Right when I hired her I felt at ease once because she provided me with detailed checklists, email reminders, and check ins to make sure everything was on track. She really cared about listening to what we wanted for our wedding and guided me through everything from logistics to design. When it came to the few weeks before the wedding, she completely took over so I wasn't stressed out. On the day of the wedding she was incredible, ensuring everything went smoothly and we were able to have a really incredible time. Our wedding went so well and we got a lot of compliments on how well planned and smooth everything was. Again, I would absolutely recommend you work with Leanne!

  • “Leanne came through for us at every corner”

    Our miracle-worker of Wedding Coordinator came through for us at every corner and made our wedding dreams come true. We can’t thank Leanne enough for her wisdom, candor, enthusiasm, scrappiness in the face of adversity and humor! She took our vision and made it a reality. Leanne did so much for us behind the scenes and made sure everything ran smoothly. SHE IS INCREDIBLE!

  • “Leanne supported our plan and breathed life into our vision”

    Leanne sure knows how to throw a party! From a year out to our big day, she was there with us helping bring our Garden Dream Wedding to a reality. Her experience was invaluable. She not only supported our plan, she brought creative ideas that breathed life into our vision. All one could ask for is that their wedding plan runs smoothly. Leanne not only brings her knowledge but her connections from the wedding world as well. It is a great feeling to know that your venue, caters, music, and photography all have had previous experiences with Leanne. Our day felt truly enjoyable for everyone in attendance. Words cannot express how grateful and happy we are that we got to work with you.

  • "She made sure my husband and I were the priority for the whole process"

    Leanne was absolutely incredible to work with. We were immediately drawn in by her fun personality, knowledge, the great reviews she has received in the past, and her passion about making our vision happen while also giving us some good advice along the way. We never felt shoved into a corner for any decision along the way. Above all of that though, she is so so so good at making sure we made the most of the little moments in the day. She made sure my husband and I were the priority for the whole process, but also made our friends and family feel included as well. Trust me, you want her to be a part your wedding.
