Danielle M. Sent on 12/17/2019Destination wedding
The moment you step into paradise, the whole staff at WDJ is welcoming, respectful, hospitable, and just overall the best service I have seen in a long time. The reason we picked WDJ for our destination wedding was based on other reviews of the fabulous Melanie Reynolds! That made choosing a place and never scoping it out even better! Months in advance Melanie was on the ball about taking over every detail, promptly responding to every email,and making sure all our guests were taken care of. She even made reservations for someone to pick us up at the airport along with any of our guests staying there too! She made our wedding beyond gorgeous despite weather issues. We had to change locations in a matter of a few hours due to rain, but you would have never guessed. It was breath taking! Not only would I highly recommend staying at this resort, I would encourage you to pick WDJ if you are thinking of doing a destination wedding. Melanie literally does everything for you! All you have to do is show up, get married, and have fun! We will definately be returning. -

Danielle Sent on 10/04/2019Melanie is the best wedding planner!
Myself and my fiancé traveled to St Lucia to get married at the resort in September and invited 10 of our close family and friends to join us. Melanie, our wedding planner, was fantastic to work with. She ensured every detail was covered, and made the planning (and on-site details) so easy and stress-free. Melanie arranged all of the legal detailing, shuttles, the photographer, flowers, decorations, reservations, hair/makeup, welcome bag items, etc- she’s literally a wonder woman and a sweetheart. I was able to enjoy the week at the beach leading up to the wedding, and walk down the aisle with no nerves or stress as I knew she had everything covered. Our wedding was beautiful and we will remember our trip forever.
The photographer that she arranged was so easy to work with and knew exactly what he needed to do and where to put everyone for great photos. My bouquet was so beautiful with fresh and local flowers- I wish I could have brought it home with me.
Again, a huge shout out to Melanie as she literally arranged almost every detail of our visit (minus the water sport activities) and was so friendly and great to work with. Our entire family had a wonderful vacation and continues to talk about all of the memories we shared in St Lucia.
We will definitely be going back, and potentially renewing our vows at some point because Melanie made the process that easy and the resort was beautiful. -

Windjammer Landing Villa is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!! And the staff is out of this world.
Melanie, wedding planner extraordinaire, and the staff at Windjammer did everything right and made my day absolutely magical. Being at St.Lucia was amazing but not having to worry about the details of the wedding was absolutely phenomenal. Thank you so much Melanie for making it so easy for us and also taking care of ALL our guests! They had such a fantastic time. None of them can stop talking about it. You and your team at Windjammer are hard workers and pay attention to detail, which I love. You made everything seem easy and seamless. Everyone loved how everything was set up and couldn't believe how you transformed a lunch restaurant to a magical wedding venue. Impressive!
I can't wait to go back! -

Dream wedding!
My husband and I planned our wedding in St. Lucia during our first stop on a cruise. About a month before our planned wedding date, we reached out to Windjammer with an outline of our proposed day. Just a few hours later, the resort's wedding specialist, Melanie, responded with a detailed itinerary and pricing.
Melanie made the planning process simple. She was very organized and thorough. She made it easy to make long distance decisions by sending me sample photos of flowers, the venue, and decorations. She was able to offer options to accommodate every request that I sent.
When we arrived at the port, a driver with a large van was there to pick us up. Upon arrival at the resort, Melanie coordinated a lawyer to meet us to sign the marriage paperwork (since we requested a legal ceremony). Then, she scheduled appointments for the women in my group to go to the resort spa for hair and makeup. The spa was beautiful! While I was getting ready, my husband and the men relaxed and dressed in one of the resort's hillside villas overlooking the ocean. After the women were finished getting ready, we went to a separate villa. When it was time for the ceremony, we the family and men were driven to the ceremony site.
The resort had a garden ceremony site set up on the top of the hillside overlooking the ocean. Chairs with pink tie sashes and flowers were set up, along with an arch decorated with white fabric and flowers. Melanie coordinated the set up of ice water with fruit and umbrellas for the guests to be comfortable. A steel pan drummer played the music for the ceremony, creating the perfect island ambiance. Although we had not rehearsed, the ceremony went very smoothly. At the end, the guests tossed flower petals for our walk down the aisle. It was perfect. While we took photos on the hilltop and the beach, our family was shuttled to the restaurant.
The set up of the resort allowed us to have a grand entrance to our reception. We walked across the beach and up the stairs to a private section of the restaurant. A steel pan band played music for our group. We had a full bar and a variety of tasty appetizers. We were able to enjoy a toast and dances.
Melanie booked a photographer and videographer to capture us throughout the day. They took photos of us getting ready, at the garden ceremony, on the beach, and at our reception. We were emailed a link to the images a week after our wedding. The site has been convenient to navigate and all of the photos taken are great. It has been tough to choose!
Melanie and the team at Windjammer Landing made our wedding dreams come true. Our time at Windjammer Landing was much too short. We cannot wait to visit again at an anniversary!

Christina Sent on 06/25/2017When we arrived at Windjammer on June 2nd, we were met in our room by our phenomenal wedding planner Lynn Joseph. Even though we weren't suppose to meet with her until Tuesday, she still came to check on us. She was also so kind as to upgrade us to a room with a fantastic view. Over the next few days our guest began to check in and they were greeted and provided rooms with great views as well. June 7th was the day of our wedding. Lynn had everything mapped out and organized. Latoya, the resort makeup artist did an excellent job with my makeup. Peter, the resort photographer came to take pictures of the groom and his guys and me and my girls getting ready. (We love Peter, he is so thorough) As we arrived on the beach for the wedding, I could see the setup and it was everything I envisioned and more. The colors looked great, everything was beautiful. I could here the ceremony music playlist going (thanks to Jacqueline Nicholas- activities manager) everything was going so smoothly. As I began to get choked up walking down the aisle with my dad, I could hear the voice of the officiant (Sherwin) calming me down. It was such a great day. Having our close family and friends there made it magical. The reception was just as beautiful. Embers restaurant was set up beautifully in the there were candles floating, fairy lights hanging, music playing and I could smell the wonderful aroma of food coming from the buffet. Everything felt so surreal. I couldn't believe the day had come, but it did and thanks to Lynn everything turned out so great! Lynn was always professional from day one and I am truly happy and grateful that she was my wedding planner. Despite the million emails I sent her, she was always patient and responsive.She worked with our budget and allowed us to customize things and we couldn't be more pleased. We are forever grateful to you Lynn! If anyone is thinking of planning their wedding in St. Lucia, look no further because Windjammers is your place! -
User2994185 Sent on 03/07/2017My husband and I were married at Windjammer Landing Villa Beach Resort in November 2016 and I 100% recommend it! We had 16 guests there with us and every one of them have said they would recommend the same! Lynn was our wedding planner and I have to say that what she did for us was priceless. Throughout the planning process we felt Lynn was always there with great suggestions and made the goal of stress free wedding planning a reality. We communicated through email to plan every last detail- accommodations, taxis from the airport, appetizers for our welcome party, the rehearsal dinner, and all the important details of the big day. The ceremony was held on a balcony of a beautifully decorated private villa overlooking a stunning Labrelotte Bay, followed by cocktail hour with a steel band playing. We were able to special request the best bartender ever- Barry is the man!!! After we headed down to beachside Embers restaurant for the reception. The decorations were beautiful, the food was delicious, the cake was perfect with vanilla and chocolate sea shells, and the dj kept the music coming. The photographer, Peter, was really nice and did a fantastic job capturing the day for us. Overall the resort staff made us feel at home and we are truly looking forward to going back to visit!
