Anna and Michael’s Wedding May 24th, 2026
We cannot thank Maria enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. From the very beginning, she was organized, professional, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our vision come to life.
Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Maria made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. She thought of every detail, kept everything on schedule, and was always available to answer questions and offer guidance. On our wedding day, we were able to relax and enjoy every moment because we knew everything was in her capable hands.
Maria went above and beyond to ensure that our day was beautiful, seamless, and filled with joy. Our family and guests were so impressed with how well everything flowed. The memories Michael and I made that day will stay with us forever, and Maria played a huge role in making that possible.
If you’re looking for a wedding planner who is passionate, dedicated, and truly exceptional at what she does, we highly recommend Maria. Thank you for helping create the wedding of our dreams!
Anna and Michael ❤️ -

Dominican Republic, Punta Cana
Choosing Exquisite Affare for our destination wedding in Punta Cana was one of the best decisions we made.
Planning a wedding from afar can be stressful, but from the very beginning, we felt completely supported and at ease. Their professionalism, organization, and attention to detail made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. No matter the distance, they were always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and ensure every aspect of our wedding came together perfectly.
As our officiant, they created a ceremony that was heartfelt, personal, and truly reflective of who we are as a couple. They took the time to get to know our story and crafted a ceremony that was filled with love, emotion, and authenticity. Standing on the beautiful beaches of Punta Cana, surrounded by our family and friends, we experienced a ceremony that was more meaningful than we could have ever imagined.
The DJ services were equally outstanding. They kept the energy high all night long, played the perfect mix of music, and made sure the dance floor was packed from the first song to the last. They did an amazing job reading the crowd and creating an atmosphere that was fun, engaging, and unforgettable. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had dancing the night away.
What impressed us most was how genuinely invested they were in making our day special. Their warmth, kindness, and passion for what they do shone through every interaction. We felt cared for every step of the way, and that peace of mind allowed us to fully enjoy every moment of our wedding celebration.
Our destination wedding was everything we had dreamed of and more, and Exquisite Affare played a huge role in making that happen. From the planning and coordination to the beautiful ceremony and incredible DJ services, every detail exceeded our expectations.
Thank you for helping us create the most magical and unforgettable day of our lives in Punta Cana. We are forever grateful and would highly recommend Exquisite Affare to any couple looking for a wedding team that truly goes above and beyond. Absolutely exceptional from start to finish! -

Wedding Day
We had an outstanding experience with our wedding planner from start to finish. They were extremely professional, organized, and always quick to reply to any questions or concerns we had. Their attention to detail and proactive communication made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free.
On the wedding day, everything went exactly as planned, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment without having to worry about any logistics. As the bride and groom, we felt completely at ease knowing that every detail was being handled perfectly behind the scenes.
We truly appreciate their dedication, hard work, and commitment to making our special day unforgettable. We would highly recommend their services to any couple looking for a reliable, responsive, and exceptional wedding planner. -

Stress Free Wedding Day!
I cannot rave enough about how amazing Maria and her team were. Our wedding day went so smoothly and if any part of it didn't we never knew about it because it was taken care of. We used Exquisite Affare for our Day of Wedding Planner and we felt like we had her throughout the whole wedding planning process because Maria was always communicating with us and didn't hesitate to answer any questions we had. Their professionalism and experience was very evident and we didn't have anything to worry about. We could not have had such a stress-free wedding day without their team. -

Master of her craft
Maria has an incredible vision and truly brought our dream wedding to life. She took the time to listen to our ideas and designed our Exquisite Affare with creativity and precision.
Instead of following the hall’s standard floorplan, Maria reimagined the layout so that every guest had a perfect view of the head table and dance floor. Her keen attention to detail ensured that nothing was overlooked.
Walking into our wedding left us absolutely speechless. Our family and friends had an amazing time and still talk about how much they loved the celebration.
Maria, told our love story the way we wanted it to be told.

Passionate. Detailed. Professional. Quality. Stressfree.
My wife and I tried planning our wedding ourselves. Key word there being "tried". Once we reached out to Exquisite Affare, Maria Zabala made our lives so much easier!
With over 20 years of experience, Maria is very passionate about her craft and she walked us through all the steps. She kept everything well organized and covered everything from our budget to the smallest details of our ceremony that we never would've thought about. We even had to move our ceremony indoors instead of the garden due to weather and resulted in us changing things around for our itinerary. Maria adjusted seamlessly on the fly and was very accommodating to all our requests throughout the day. She really took away all the stress so that we could just focus on being in the moment on our wedding day.
Maria was kind, patient, and always on the ball. She took the time to get to know us and our family. She made sure to check in with us throughout the day. It truly felt like working with family. We couldn't be more happy to have had Maria as our wedding planner.
We 100% recommend Maria and her team at Exquisite Affare! -

Amazing experience with Exquisite Affare
My husband and I hired Maria to help with day-of wedding coordination. In reality, communication started six weeks prior to the day and we can't explain how much of a help she was. She was kind, helpful, organized, accurate and on-the-ball. She was a calming force especially when the day drew closer — you don't realize how the little things can stress you out! We put our trust in Maria to help with one of the most special days of our lives and she treated us, our guests and our entire day with all the love of a friend. A special thank you to Kerri who assisted on the day itself and was just as amazing. THANK YOU! -

Wedding Planner Extrodinaire
Maria was wonderful to work with. I love efficiency and organisation - and Maria was exactly that!
She was kind, patient, and very friendly. On the day off, she looked after the day beautifully, and ensured everything was in place. The set up was better than I imagined. She took time to check in with me multiple times on the wedding day, and I felt I could go to her with anything. It really felt like working with a very trusted friend, and I am so happy I chose her to be our day off/month off planner. I highly recommend Maria as a wedding planner - you will not regret it! -
