  The most amazing day!!

  Laysha and her team were incredible! We reached out to her just about a year before our selected wedding date. From the get go, we knew we’d love her! I sent Laysha a few inspiration pics and she was always prompt to reply to emails and make suggestions. Every vendor she recommended was amazing! We were STRESS FREE the day of the wedding and everything turned out stunning! Exactly how we had envisioned the day to be. It was honestly the happiest day of our lives and we can’t thank Laysha and her team enough for everything they did for us. We hope to work with her again one day... 10 year vow renewal?!? Lol. 💕💕💕 If you are on the fence about having a destination wedding, DO IT! And book Laysha as your wedding planner. You will not be disappointed!

  Absolutely Perfect

  If there was a higher rating than 5.0 I would rate Laysha/Irie Matrimony as a 10! I was working with a local wedding planner here in the Midwest and didn't have the most confidence in her or feel completely comfortable with what she was doing but I thought that was probably a normal feeling when planning the biggest event of your life in a place you've never even been to..fast forward: I found Laysha through a facebook group where another bride had recommended her. I decided to send her an email and was very surprised to get a response back from her that same day! Reading her email back to me put me at ease much more than my current planner was and right then I decided to cut off my local planner and work with this woman I'd never met. From that moment on Laysha was there whenever I needed her! I told her my dreams for the wedding and she even helped me figure out the AMAZING reception that was beyond my wildest dreams. I mentioned how I wanted to do an activity as a wedding favor instead of a "traditional" physical favor. She ran with the idea and my reception turned into a magical catamaran ride with food, cookies, cupcakes, an open bar, and we got everyone 2 snorkeling trips. All of that for the price of my original Food and Beverage! I was floored. She was there for all my freak outs and cheered me on when I was excited about something. And when disaster struck (my flight sold our seats and we were stuck overnight in Puerto Rico!) Laysha was there the next morning and picked me up from the airport with a hug and drink in hand, and took us right to the courthouse to insure I got everything taken care of! As someone with extreme Anxiety, having someone I trust taking care of everything involving the wedding was the most important thing and my decision to hire Laysha was the best decision I've ever made! (Aside from marrying my husband I suppose :P ) Not only did I get the best wedding planner in the entire world, I also gained a really great friend that I will cherish for years!

  Our Beachside Wedding Ceremony

  My Husband and I got married at Secret harbor beach resort. Our room was located on the first floor and it was perfect while walking down the sand to my husband. Laysha our wedding coordinator was awesome in obtaining our marriage license application. She went the extra mile to ensure we had our application processed on the island . The views were awesome and we loved the background and scenic views during our ceremony. The officiant was so graceful in his words when marrying us.
  This was an awesome experience and we loved the blue waters on St Thomas. Our memories will last forever!

  Nothing Short of Amazing

  Laysha and her team were amazing! I didn’t realize planning a wedding from two thousand miles away could be so simple. Our wedding was beautiful, small and intimate. The day before the wedding, our oldest daughter had flight issues and was not going to be able to make it in time for the ceremony. We were crushed! But Laysha worked her magic changing the time and venue to make sure our baby didn’t miss our special moment. We didn’t have to worry about a thing! Laysha took care of everything and all we had to focus on was having an amazing wedding day. I would recommend her a thousand times over.

  Destination Wedding Planning Made Easy!

  After we got engaged in June 2017, my husband-to-be had what ended up to be the perfect idea have a destination wedding in St Thomas, USVI. What originally seemed logistically overwhelming ended up being the easiest, stress and worry free event planning I have ever done. Well, aside from those two category 5 hurricanes Irma and Maria. We traveled down to St Thomas in July 2017. We planned our entire wedding weekend over the course of a few days- had our engagement pictures taken by the wonderful Sage Hammond of Crown Images, had a cake and food tasting and met with our Rabbi at the Hebrew Congregation of St Thomas. Fast forward a few months, as you probably know, we were unsure if all of our planning, tasting and visions would come to fruition due to the devastation on the island. We decided to stick it out, kept in touch with all of our vendors and made the excellent decision to stick with our plans to get married in St Thomas. We couldn't have been happier! My husband was the first to contact Laysha (honestly, I told him if he wanted to have a destination wedding that he needed to help with the planning!) who did a wonderful job pairing us up with the perfect vendors, being our liaison with Secret Harbour (which after the hurricanes was not fully open at the time), keeping us on track with our planning timeline and so much more! I provided her with a few inspo pics (and when I say "a few" I literally had less than a dozen total pins on my Pinterest). My flowers were perfect. My hair and makeup were amazing. Our decorations were beautiful. The food and cake were delicious. Most importantly, all of our guests (29) had an amazing time and me and my husband were completely stress free during our time on the island. If you have any hesitation or reservation about having a destination wedding, I HIGHLY recommend working with Laysha. She is very skilled in her profession, well known on the island with connections for anything you may need for your wedding. We were her first, and most certainly not last, Jewish wedding. Her experience, attention to detail, calm demeanor, organization and wonderful personality made our wedding events the most perfectly wonderful, pleasant, worry free and positively memorable time! I would (and have!) highly recommend her to help plan your St Thomas destination wedding!

  I cannot recommend Irie Matrimony enough for wedding planning! Trying to plan a St. Thomas wedding from Ohio would have been incredibly stressful, but Laysha made it SO easy! I cannot imagine going with anyone else. Laysha was VERY responsive to emails/texts and walked me through every detail of the wedding day and small reception afterwards. Even after 2 hurricanes postponed our wedding and devastated the islands, Laysha made us feel at ease to to keep the wedding in St. Thomas and move the date 4 months later.
  We got married on Lindquist Beach, Feb 10, 2018 and had our reception at Secret Harbour.
  The wedding itself was PERFECT. The decorations, the flowers, the bouquet, the violinist, and Laysha's team were beyond amazing. I only told Laysha what colors I wanted (purple and white) and somewhat simplistic and she NAILED it! I saw everything for the first time on the actual wedding day and I could not have done it better myself. Laysha's team did a great job working together and making the day flawless. The reception was amazing! We had a breakfast buffet with mimosa bar and it was beautifully setup as well as delicious! The flowers and decor were on point!
  Our friends and family cannot stop talking about that beautiful day and how perfect it was. We are beyond thankful to have found Laysha and hope to come back for a vow renewal in the future!

  I would recommend Laysha and the Irie Matrimony team any day! I want to get married again just so i can work with her again! I don't even know where to start, having a destination wedding puts a lot of trust in the person/team planning YOUR wedding. I did not see the colors or flowers until the day of and that is a little scary, but Laysha pulled everything off perfectly without a problem and everything turned out better than i could have ever imagined! We had hurricanes to deal with that moved our whole itinerary and wedding date and Laysha made me feel at ease, even with her losing power and wifi from the storms, she still made sure she got a hold of me and let me know every thing was going to be alright! When we got to the island we got off our cruise ship and she had a taxi waiting for us to bring us to the beach and when we met her it felt like i have known her my whole life, everything went amazing even tho we only had 4 hours on the island since our cruise ship was leaving at 1 pm. we were married, photographed and had cake and champagne all before we had to head back to the ship and the best part was WE DID NOT FEEL RUSHED. Im hoping Laysha and the team will be able to do our vow renewal some day! Thank you again for making my best day ever the most amazing day ever! Love Kate and David

  If you're getting married in the USVI, you'll want to snag Laysha as your coordinator--you will not be disappointed! When planning a destination wedding, you need someone who is responsive and there was never a time when I didn't hear back from her. She listened carefully to my needs and provided recommendations based on them. She works with some of the best vendors on the island and will secure them for your important day. Most importantly, she made sure everything ran smoothly the day of our wedding. We couldn't be happier with our wedding--it was perfect!

  We hired Laysha as our wedding coordinator for our destination wedding on June 5th, 2016. We hired her only 2 months before our wedding date because we had to part from our previous coordinator secondary to her unprofessionalism and unresponsiveness. Laysha was a breath of fresh air in a time of great stress. She quickly helped us pick up the pieces. She was quick to respond to our text, calls, emails. She was able to contact all of the vendors and make the appropriate changes and coordinate everything for us. Laysha has a positive happy attitude and is a pleasure to work with. I even made a last minute change and decided to add a cookie table 3 days prior to our wedding as a surprise to my groom. Laysha understood the importance of adding the cookie table to bring a Pittsburgh tradition to our wedding. She contacted a local shop and made the arrangements to make my big surprise a reality. She even bought milk to compliment the cookies. I really liked the fact that she met us at the villa the day before the wedding to discuss the layout of the reception and go over all the final details. I can not say enough about how wonderful Laysha Powers is as a wedding coordinator. From just sending her pictures of my weddings ideas and themes she was able to decorate the villa and beach to turn both sites into our dream ceremony and reception.

  Laysha helped us feel fully prepared for our wedding day. Things couldn't have gone more perfect. Every vendor was on time and knew the plan. She responds very quickly and really knows the island vendors and beaches well. Our day was exceptionally perfect and really was our dream wedding. Laysha is so easy to work with and really knows what she's doing. She also put together welcome bags for our guests and made sure they looked professional. She helped us pick out what would get us the most bang for our buck with decorations for the reception and the ceremony. It was all perfect!

  Laysha was very easy to work with from the get go. I contacted several wedding coordinators and decided to go with Irie Matramony because Laysha was so responsive and I felt I could trust her right off the bat. I'm so glad I made the decision to book with Laysha, because she did an amazing job at putting everything together for our wedding. Her and Sage (the prefered photographer at Irie) made everything flow seamlessly! We had our ceremony at Secret Harbour with a party of 30, had a small cocktail hour at Sunset Grill, and went snorkeling (all on the same beach!). We wouldn't have had it any other way! If you are shopping for a wedding planner in St. Thomas, look no further... You won't be disappointed!

  Laysha planned and coordinated my wedding. I have to say it was more then I could have imagined. My husband and I had a very intimate wedding and its was everything we wanted. Laysha exceeded our expectations by far. She was always there to answer any questions or concerns that I had promptly. I highly recommend Laysha!

  Our wedding ceremony and cocktail reception was held at Secret Harbour Resort on St. Thomas. We reside in PA so obviously our planning had to be via phone or e-mail with Laysha. Once we arrived on the island we were able to relax and enjoy!! There was no stress involved the day of our ceremony. We had a sunset ceremony and were able to enjoy the morning and afternoon on the beach :) The hair and makeup stylist was friendly and came to the resort, my bouquet was beautiful and handed to me prior to ceremony, the photographer and officiant were awesome and again very friendly and our cake was simple and elegant just as we had requested. Laysha was also present at our ceremony to ensure we were happy and everything was on point including the cocktail reception scheduled immediately following ceremony on site. We plan to renew our vows in the future and will definitely be contacting Laysha!! :)

  Laysha helped us plan our daughter's destination wedding beautifully. Laysha's ideas and gentle creative touch was wonderful and comforting. Planning a wedding and vacation from Michigan and Chicago with guests coming from all over the country can be a challenge. Laysha's communication skills and ability to coordinate vendors is excellent. We used East End Florists for bridal flowers, Tim West as our fantastic DJ, and Morgan Rael for ceremony and reception music, and VI Desserts for cake and cupcakes. All were excellent! Kelly Lorenz, our photographer from Boston was amazing as well. My husband, our daughter and her husband were also very pleased with Secret Harbour Beach Resort, St. Thomas USVI as the location for the wedding and reception. We all loved the management, site and guests raved about their rooms and the reception. Laysha created beautiful reception decor and stayed throughout to execute every element that we planned. Allow Laysha to guide you with wedding planning and you will be so very pleased with the results!

  Laysha was a wonderful wedding planner. She really made me feel like I was her only client and was very receptive, always e-mailing me and texting me back very quickly. She is also very creative and good at what she does. I week before my wedding I couldn't make any more decisions. I gave her the supplies for decor and told her to decorate as she saw best. She did a fantastic job. She made my wedding planning process so easy and took all my worries away. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

  There is so much I could say about Laysha and how wonderfully she handled my wedding. I was so nervous and worried and she put me at ease at EVERY turn. It is almost as if she knew what I wanted before I could even tell her. I told her my colors, showed her my venue, introduced her to my fiance and my maid of honor, gave her my budget and she did the rest. The flowers were gorgeous! The photographer was amazing! I did nothing but answer her questions and she literally pulled off my special day without a hitch. I found out later that the photographer cancelled at the last minute. Laysha kept her cool and never even let on that anything was amiss. She found another photographer and I couldn't have been more pleased!! Laysha is amazing! She's cool under pressure! And it seems to be her absolute pleasure to make the people she serves happy beyond thier imagination! I will definitely recommend her services to my dearest friends and family!
