Booking Sonya was the best decision we made when planning our wedding. Sonya was extremely organised, approachable and friendly. She helps you to get the best team of suppliers together, we felt so lucky! She removed so much stress for us (we actually didn't feel any stress at all!) and really goes above and beyond to make sure the wedding day goes smoothly. We felt completely safe in her hands.
Let's start with beyond Amazing!! We had our wedding in September and from the start of 2021 when we got in touch with Sonya she made the whole experience so smooth, exciting and always had us at ease. Sonya and Matt are the best in the business they leave no stone unturned. All the suppliers they recommend are brilliant. We had Food for thought as catering and the food was delicious and the staff were brilliant too. We went with food stations with everyone loved. We had the wedding at Cortijo Maria Luisa the most stunning venue. Roger was our celebrant and he is the kindest most wonderful and thoughtful gentleman everyone loved him. Lucy was our wedding singer and just wow blown away by her stunning voice. A huge thing for us was childcare as we have 3 kids and one of the biggest priorities was to make sure they were well taken care of and Becky delivered oh my God what a sweetheart of a lady honestly one of the best things we did was book Becky she took the most amazing care of our kids the whole day and night. We booked her creche too for all the other kids for 3 hours during the wedding which parents were so delighted with because they got a little break to enjoy dinner while all kids were being fantastically looked after and fed they bring toys and have them nicely set up in the view of parents but also not in the way it was perfect. Becky also babysat for us for the day two party she came to where we were staying a looked after the kids. My kids absolutely loved her and I hope to get to see her again when we go back to Nerja. Best money spent with peace of mind knowing the kids were happy and looked after. Our decor was my Gida and stunning. Make up by Katie and her girls hair by Nora and her girls what fabulous ladies we had so much fun with them getting ready that morning. Our photographer was Alex another gentleman that took the most stunning pictures and got along fantastic with everyone. D.J Miles was brilliant he's so good at reading the crowd and playing the best music. Box drum for our band were brilliant guests loved them too. Cake by Margaret was so yummy and a lovely lady too. Everyone we dealt were fantastic and so nice. Sonya made it the most incredible day of our lives and if anyone is thinking about getting married in Nerja this is your sign to do it. I wish I could do it all again!!!! Thank you again Sonja and Matt and all the gang ye are the best and we are forever grateful ❤️
Oh wow, thank you so much for this amazing feedback much appreciated! x hope you are all well x

What can I say, other then absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Sonya is outstanding at what she does. From the moment we met her it was clear that she was the right planner for us. Sonya is extremely professional, organised and efficient but as well as this she is so kind with her time and so invested to make sure she does everything she can for the couples she works with. We had a large wedding of 130 people and so many of them commented on how cool calm and helpful Sonya was. She is full of knowledge and expertise and having her as a planner meant there was very little for us to worry about or sort. We are extremely grateful and feel so lucky to have had Sonya take care of our special day. I must mention Matt too. Matt is Sonya's husband who is a ledged and helped us with some of the extras. A brilliant team :)
Thank you so much Heather! We hope you and your families are well xx

Sonya is an amazing planner, I´ve never seen anybody as good at their job as she is. She helps all day long with all the little details, and all the couples I have worked with always say how stress-free her weddings are. She is always helping the suppliers she works with and making sure everything is done how it should be. I´ve been working with her for more than 10 years now and I just love it, when she´s in charge I just know that nothing can go wrong!!
Miles thank you so much, and right back at you, I love working with you, such a hard worker and nothing is a problem! x

I can’t recommend Sonya enough. She put so much work into organising everything for our wedding. She has built a great team of trusted suppliers. She made all the planning less stressful and we had such a great day
Got married in July 2023 at an amazing venue La Vinuela not far from Malaga. So how did we end up there well its down to the ,out amazing wedding planner Sonya and yes we mean amazing so much so a couple at our wedding have booked her for 2024.
Sonya from the first time we met her she was professional, polite and to the point they way we like it. What a wedding planner worth her weight in gold and could go against any of the world's to planners. You were just the best and words just not enough to tell you how much you made our week and the big day amazing.
From the start of the morning of the big day to the end and all that we're involved singers, hair, celebrant, the venue which was out of this world etc etc etc it went to smooth our guests were lifted speechless. Our guests could not believe how much attention to detail Sonya gave on the day and the meal making sure all our guests were looked after yes can say it's her job but no what she did was way and beyond, Yes even last minute arranging Tayto crisps for us 😂😂😂
We want to thank Matthew who is Sonya's husband as Matt arranged all our pre and post events and much more like little details as in suntan lotion, freshen up kits, water on the bus and alot more so thanks Matt.😉
So any future couples reading this Sonya is the best and you would not go wrong having her as your planner
Sonya thank you again from the bottom of our hearts and we will see you again for a more relaxed catch when we are back in nerja.
Thanks the new
Mr & Mrs Hynes
Thank you so much Paul! Can't wait for your big day!

In 2019, in the good time cafe, the waitress asked what we were doing in Nerja. We told her we had planned to look at venues to get married, and we were due to meet a potential wedding planner that day. Her response was "Is it Sonya, cos she's the best?". Luckily for us it was! As soon as we met Sonya we knew she was the person we could trust to plan the day of our dreams. We had to postpone twice as did so many other couples. Sonya took it in her stride, the super organised wonder woman, always at the other end of the phone, took charge and sorted everything out for us. With Mat, her husband helping guests who had bookings elsewhere get rebooked for three years later! All this done without extra costs or any hassle, mostly because the suppliers in Nerja have the utmost respect for Sonya & Mat. This is evident on meeting any of them. She refers to them as the team, and that's exactly what they are! A team, regardless of who you choose; flowers, hair, make up, music, ceremony, photo & video.. On that day they will work together, to become your team to give you the day of your dreams! Our guests all knew who Sonya was by the end of the evening, and all commented on her attention to detail and her organisational skills.
We couldn't put into words how thankful we are to have met Sonya & her team, to have such an important day with no worries is very rare, and absolutely wonderful.
Thank you so much for the review Sarah. Love, Sonya & Mat xx

Without a doubt wouldn't have had half the wedding without Sonya. So organised and dedicated! Her attention to detail is something to be admired. Highly recommend to anyone considering a wedding in Nerja!
Sonya is one of the most professional weddings planners I've ever met and it's always a pleasure to work with her. She will make your dreams come true on the most special day of your life.
We got married in July 2022 and there was only one wedding planner we were ever going to chose.
From our first meeting to the day of the wedding Sonya and Matt where amazing.
Sonya's attention to detail and organisation skills are second to none.
She was always available whether it was what's app, email or a phone call she answered almost immediately.
The suppliers and recommendations she provides are 5 star.
Even on the day of the wedding our guests commented on how attentive she was. She remembered every small detail we had mentioned about out guests.
If you are anyway undecided don't be, you will be in the best hands.
If you mention Sonya in Nerja most people will say Superwomen, and they would not be lying.
Emma and Eric July 2022.
HI Emma, Eric, thanks so much for this, your review definitely made me smile! Hope you and the family are all keeping well xx

We will never be able to thank Sonya enough for giving us the best day of our lives.From the very first moment we got in contact with Sonya we knew we had made the right decision.And after meeting her on our first visit it confirmed we had made the right choice to have her as our wedding planner.
Nothing was ever too much trouble with Sonya, she was always available to answer any questions we had ,was so quick responding to emails and had everything organised so well.
Despite the fact we had to postpone 2 times due to covid ,Sonya took it all in her stride and made changing dates and reorganising suppliers so easy .We never had any worries and knew all we had to do was show up on the day and everything would be taken care off.
The wedding day itself was amazing and Sonya was there all day to oversee everything and make sure the day ran smoothly .
So many guests complimented her and how great she was. She gave us the best day we could have asked for and so many great memories
I only wish we could turn back time and do it all over again.
Wow thank you so much Audrey, love all the pics too, great memories xx

Sonya is simply the best. She is so organised that the whole experience of wedding preparations was simply a pleasure and we didn't have to stress about ANYTHING.
thanks so much Maria, and right back at you - Mrs Organised Bride/Person! x

Sonya was our wedding planner for our wedding in May 2022. From the start to end of process she is was excellent in every way. She was extremely professional, responsive and always gave more information than required to help us make our decisions. She was able to provide us with all the suppliers and services we needed and no ask was ever too much for her. We would recommend her to anyone who was considering a wedding in Nerja. We got married in Jardines Del Trapiches with over 200 guests and Sonya took it all in her stride. She had every minute of the day organised to a tee which meant we didn’t have to worry about a thing and could enjoy the day which we really did. Thank you Sonya, we can never thank you enough for organising the best day of our lives!
Thank you so much Emer. I hope you and your family are well

Unfortunately although we had to cancel our wedding due to travel restrictions this year. I would without any hesitation recommend Sonya as a wedding planner. She is extremely organised professional, knowledgeable and very friendly. We worked planning our wedding with Sonya and she made it very simple and stress free. If you are looking for a planner Nerja you won't be disappointed with Sonya.
