Destination Puerto Rico: Celebrity Wedding Planner Tiffany Cook visits the W Retreat & Spa Vieques


After enjoying a few days at our first location my husband John and I were chauffeured to a small commuter airport where we took a quick 15 minute flight to Vieques (I had the distinct pleasure of being co-pilot on this flight).

John & Tiffany Cook leaving San Juan headed to beautiful Vieques Island Puerto Rico for their stay at the
W Retreat & Spa

The beautiful view on the flight to Vieques

When we landed our W Hotel rep met us and escorted us to the W Lounge, a super cool sexy airport Lounge where we enjoyed a glass of the islands most wonderful Rum Punch while they collected our bags. We were whisked off to the W Resort by their signature all terrain vehicles.

From the moment we arrived the resort screamed modern luxury! The staff and service were superb and the ambiance of this property was notably different and exciting.

My wife Tiffany Cook & I absolutely loved the W Retreat's WOW suite (rightfully named I might add!) When we entered our suite we were greeted with a "Make your own Mojito bar" this was a great start to what felt like a second honeymoon for Mrs. Cook and I!!

W Retreat & Spa Vieques Poolside Cabanas great for lounging or for a great party set up, maybe cocktail hour for a destination wedding!


WET is the name of the Pool & Bar at the W Retreat and Spa. It is a stunning setting overlooking the Ocean with fantastic mix music drinks and great food. Needless to say my wife
Celebrity Wedding & Event Planner Tiffany Cook
& I spent a lot of time there on our trip.

Above is the AWAY Spa at the W Retreat Vieques. Tiffany Cook & I were treated to a fantastic couples massage after  our morning workout at the facilities full gym. 
Another amazing intimate event space the AWAY Spa Courtyard at the W Retreat & Spa Vieques with breathtaking views!
The Garden Pool at the W Retreat & Spa Puerto Rico was an enchanting space especially at night! This would be a fabulous spot for a rehearsal dinner, small cocktail hour, or vow renewal!! 


The pristine beaches and sparkling blue waters of the W Retreat & Spa were just gorgeous! My husband John Cook and I enjoyed many a Passion Fruit Mojito on this beach as we relaxed in the Puerto Rico sun!! Be sure to use your sunscreen as you won't want to leave these beaches until the sun goes down!



SOURCE is a beautiful place for breakfast. Also offers an amazing space inside for dinner, the food is spectacular!
One of the things as a wedding & event planner that I love about this property besides the beauty and multitude of event spaces is the privacy, especially with the high profile clientele that we represent. For large events you can buy out the entire property or a portion of it and for more intimate events you are still afforded the same privacy being away from the mainland. Your guests can stay and play and you get to enjoy your friends and family the entire time!

Beautiful destination wedding Beach Ceremony at the W Retreat & Spa Vieques Puerto Rico

The W Retreat & Spa Vieques has a ver unique site for events called Paradise Edge. This spectacular site has breathtaking views, ocean breezes and is perfect for an intimate ceremony, rehearsal dinner or romantic dinner for two! Also an ideal location for you gents to "pop the question", yes a perfect place for the ultimate marriage proposal!!

 W Retreat & Spa Vieques Puerto Rico
The activities at this property for you and your guests are endless from paddle boarding, hiking, fishing, snorkeling,  horseback riding, or kayaking through the Bioluminescent Bay (which is a once in a lifetime experience)! You can rent a Jeep onsite and tour the island, see the wild horses that roam the island, or stop at a private beach or just sit back, relax and soak in the sun at the resort. Either way the W Retreat & Spa is a Caribbean gem that is perfect for destination weddings, social events or an extremely romantic honeymoon or weekend get away and if you are from the states you don't even need your passport!!

Thank you W Retreat & Spa, Greg White, and Starwood Caribbean for the VIP service and an amazing stay at your spectacular and truly unique property, we look forward to seeing you soon!!
John & Tiffany Cook

Concept to Completion: Vegas Bling Wedding Cake by Celebrity Wedding Planner Tiffany Cook


As most know I'm not your average wedding planner, I actually custom design every aspect of the wedding for my clients from the reception, ceremony, flowers, lighting, linens, invitations, menu, everything in between including the wedding cake. When it comes to the "wedding design" I always tell my brides "design is a process" creativity doesn't happen on a schedule. This was very true with Keela's destination wedding in Las Vegas. We had been working on design of her room, the centerpieces, menu, lighting, tablescape, the "wedding bling" and all other aspects of the wedding, yet the cake design eluded me. I had photos of bits and pieces of what I knew Keela loved but I still didn't have "IT"in my head. Thank goodness for the level of trust I have with my clients!! Some brides might stress if three months out they didn't have their wedding cake design...but not my girls.

A few months before the wedding we all flew to Las Vegas for the sample centerpiece (which is a must for all my clients) and wedding tasting. It was right in the middle of going over final flower design revisions that my child like design ADD kicked in full force!! I started drawing out my vision as all the pieces of what Keela loved came together in my head like puzzle pieces. Keela and I were super excited and met with the Encore Hotel's fabulous Pastry Chef to go over the design. Below(left) is the sketch from this meeting and to the right is the actual cake from Keela's wedding masterfully executed by the Encore Hotel's Pastry Chef. We did choose to omit the pink roses in original design in exchange for bling, the cake as you see was spectacular and was well worth the wait!

Wedding Review of Tiffany Cook by Keela & Marion's about their Las Vegas Destination Wedding week

Wedding review of Tiffany Cook from Keela & Marion for their Encore Las Vegas Destination Wedding 

Amazing! Perfection! These are the 2 words that I would use to describe Tiffany Cook & her Dream Team. Tiffany Cook made my wedding dream become a reality. She is so down to earth & so much fun to work with. She walked me through every step from start to finish & made the entire wedding planning process enjoyable! My husband & I are still amazed when we look at pictures from our wedding day. The thing I “LOVE” about Tiffany is her attention to detail. She has an eye for décor that most people donʼt have. She walks into an empty room & transforms it in her mind instantly. I would recommend Tiffany to any bride who wants an FABULOUS WEDDING! I gained a dear friend & I will definitely be using her for my baby showers in the near future. My husband & I could never thank Tiffany Cook enough for such an AMAZING WEDDING DAY!
XOXO,
Keela & Marion
