Couple Testimonials

Where do I begin! We owe Petra the biggest thank you for making our wedding day spectacular! We were able to pull off the most beautiful international destination wedding without ever stepping foot in the country! She connected us with spectacular vendors we would never have found on our own not knowing the country. She was always available, and she is so much fun to work with. She has a wonderful sense of humor and she is so sweet and understanding how stressful weddings can be, especially site unseen. She was there for me with every food tasting, through every meeting that needed translations, and the last minute MC booking we needed two weeks before the big day. I am appreciative of her and her talents. She truly loves what she does, and it shows in how she treats her clients. Do not look any further when finding a wedding planner. She is the best you could ever have. You are in great hands with Petra! Thank you for making our dreams come true! Our friends and family said it was the wedding of a lifetime, and you are a huge thanks to that! (photographer: Nika and Grega Photography)

ALLI & TOM

If there were more than 5 stars, we would have given them! Petra quite literally made our wedding day!

From our very first zoom meeting, we knew she was going to be amazing. She listened to every single detail and wanted to help us create the most perfect day for us to remember forever. During the planning process, Petra took all of the stress out of making decisions. She advised on what she thought would work well, but also wanted to make sure the whole day was exactly as we had pictured it. She constantly kept us up to date with vendors, what needed doing, how to do it, etc. On the actual wedding day, she couldn’t have done any more for us. It was the most magical day and we couldn’t have done it without Petra. She was prepared for literally everything (we had her sewing shoes that had broken on the morning of the wedding). Our friends even said they need a Petra in every day life haha.

Thank you so much again Petra. And please, anyone considering a wedding planner, USE PETRA!

Petra,

Never in a million years did we ever think that we’d get married in a place we’ve never been to before. Your guidance & expertise in wedding planning made a “stressful” day so wonderful & allowed us to enjoy ourselves without any angst or stress (… just ask Alli! hah!). We could not ask for anyone better to make The most important day of our lives that much more special & BEAUTIFUL. You are The absolute BEST & we are so grateful you were able to help us enjoy our day without the stress & allowed us to be present. With endless love & appreciation for all That you did.

Petra planned the most amazing wedding for us. It was truly beautiful, dreamy and amazing.

Petra had all the right contacts in Slovenia, and even while casually travelling through various parts of Slovenia, people in the hospitality industry always knew her when they asked who our wedding planner was, and gave her high compliments. Having the right network and taste in wedding aesthetics and style is a crucial factor for me, as I am not Slovenian and do not speak the language. Petra was able to assemble the best of the best for us with minimal haste.

The wedding was beautiful and everyone enjoyed it. Guests gave high compliments and told me they’ll never forget it. Highly recommend!  (photographer: Ana Gregorič Photography)

ADELIA & MICKEY

Choosing to work with Petra was THE BEST decision we have made for our wedding. We asked for her help in a period when we were having a really hard time organizing our wedding in Bled (the long distance, the Slovene language barrier…), and since the first day she proved how indispensable she was. Once we started working with Petra, everything got settled very quickly and we fully understood how much we actually needed her. She made all the difference in our wedding experience, both before and during the wedding day, and her presence allowed us and our families to fully enjoy every minute, without having to worry about anything (she even helped us with all the paperwork).

She is an amazing professional, so passionate about her job and her couples, and always able to reassure you in stressful moments. We trusted her superb network of vendors (DJ, band, hair and make-up, videographer, and photographer) and we had the most beautiful wedding we could have dreamed of, even surpassing our expectations. It’s been already 3 months, and all our guests keep telling us that they never experienced another wedding with such high-level coordination, precision of details, and overall quality.

If you are looking for a competent and trustworthy wedding planner, who is also a fun and lovely person, we couldn’t recommend you strongly enough to rely on Petra. (photographer: Mitja Resnik Photography)

ALESSIA & GUILLAUME

When we decided to get married in Slovenia last year, I told Sean that I did not want to worry about absolutely anything and did not want to do my own planning. Choosing you to be our wedding planner was the best decision we could have made to accomplish that. Sean and I gave such little input, and you still managed to choose the perfect venues and vendors for us and make decisions on our behalf. You handled everything, and everything was amazing. And Sean is correct, that was the dream wedding I didn’t know I wanted. Everyone loved it so much, but most importantly, Sean and I loved it. There is NOTHING I would change about it, and we still talk about how great it was every day on our honeymoon! I cannot thank you enough for your everything you did for us, and everything you do for other couples like us.

GERALDINE & SEAN

Petra deserves more than 5 stars for flawlessly organizing our dream wedding in Brdo, Slovenia. Her meticulous 12-month planning and attention to detail made our remote planning stress-free, even from New York. The day was executed seamlessly, from the breathtaking venue setup to managing logistics with multiple vendors. Petra’s warmth, professionalism, and dedication (answering our Whatsapp messages any time of day) created an unforgettable experience for us and our 100+ guests. She turned our vision into reality, surpassing all expectations. We wouldn’t change a single thing. If you’re seeking a top-tier event planner, Petra is an amazing choice!

Unparalleled Perfection: Petra Made Our Dreams Come True!

Petra was an absolute lifesaver throughout our wedding planning journey. As a highly experienced wedding planner with a wealth of knowledge in organizing weddings for both domestic and foreign couples, her expertise was invaluable. Planning a wedding from the UK for an event in Slovenia could have been daunting, but Petra’s guidance and professionalism ensured that everything went smoothly.

Her extensive experience in weddings in Slovenia was of paramount importance. She recommended the best local providers and left the decision-making in our hands, allowing us to customize our day to perfection. From the first meeting to the final farewell, Petra’s attention to detail and incredible organizational skills were evident. Every aspect of our special day was flawlessly executed, surpassing our wildest dreams.

We can’t thank Petra enough for her dedication and hard work in creating a wedding that was nothing short of magical. Our day was filled with joy, love, and cherished memories, all thanks to her meticulous planning and thoughtful touches. If you’re looking for a wedding planner who can turn your vision into reality and deliver unparalleled perfection, we highly recommend Petra without hesitation. She made our dreams come true!

LAURA & PETAR

I’m extremely happy about my decision to work with Petra for my most important day. Since I live in abroad and never been wedding venue, it was not easy for me to prepare the wedding from afar, but she made it easy. She helped me in every regard – vendor recommendation, planning, designing, preparing stationary, and etc. And she always takes time to have a meeting, give advice, and provide references with her experience & expertise. Especially, she has a lot of experiences in wedding planning around the Lake Bled, so she has expertise in this region.

As wedding day comes closer, there are too many things to decide and prepare, so it is easy to miss things, but she was keen in details and she was very responsible on wedding day as well. I can guarantee that you will never regret if you decide to work with her for your wedding. (photographer: Ana Gregorič Photography)

JINNY & MATJAŽ

The perfect wedding planner, come wedding guest and friend. Petra is someone you can truly count one and who makes all of your wedding desires become a reality, like a fairy godmother! We had the pleasure of finding Petra online and speaking over the phone initially. This became zoom calls as frequently as we needed. She was on hand from the beginning (our first ideas) and all the way through; guiding us how to take steps to make our wedding abroad a perfect reality. We never felt like anything was too much for Petra (if she can make your dream wedding come true, she will).

The week of our wedding was as stressful as it can be for any one marrying abroad – there was panic and confusion, coupled with the language barrier. But we had Petra and it made everything breezy. The hurdles we faced were put right by her. For instance, we had a pre-wedding event planned which was cancelled last minute but she helped source a solution which was even better! Petra’s calm manner and optimism makes the perfect wedding planner, but more than that: she’s your best friend. Couples can rely on her to be there: to fix your veil, or call a cab, provide an umbrella or translate a problem. The day would not have been possible without her, nor would it have been half as special as we truly loved heaving her with us on the day; smiling and celebrating by our sides.

We love you Petra! Thank you for everything we will cherish our wedding day forever as the best day of our lives and you helped make it all real!  (photographer: Ana Gregorič Photography)

LAURA & LIAM

It is almost one year anniversary, since my husband and I married. Looking back it feels like it was an absolute dream really!! A day that could not have been more perfect. We had a smaller wedding (80 people) but we wanted it perfect and for us stress-free. Up until today our friends and family talk about our wedding day, how amazing it was – simply flowing with amazing energy and in great harmony. One particular person gets credit for that, and that is our wedding planner, Mrs. Petra Starbek.
If you are getting married and are considering weather to get a planner or not to help, trust me, planner like Mrs. Petra is definitely an indefinite YES!! She is seriously worth your budget! Having her around for the process of planning and event itself was the best decision we took! We were so stress-free and could really enjoy the whole process and especially the day itself. You must be thinking that you can also do it yourself (trust me we also thought so) but all together there are so many things that at some point you will loose your mind doing it yourself. She has a great circle of contacts and will absolutely help you save budget on many aspects.
Most importantly what makes Mrs. Petra the absolute best is her personality. She is so professional at what she does and that is very hard to find. On our wedding day she blended in but stood out just the right amount when needed. She made sure everything was going smoothly and by the plan and no one had a feeling of stress and really NOTHING went wrong. Also to mention, even the guest (and we had a worldwide guest pallet) were amazed by her input.
My husband and I often talk about if we were anyone else deciding for a planner or not, with Mrs. Petra, decision is so simple. You definitely need her. We would have rather compromise on anything else than be without Mrs. Petra on our wedding day.
We are happy also for Mrs. Petra to share our contact with you if you would like us to share more of our experience with her.
With best wishes, (photographer: Aljoša Videtič Photography)

What can we say, it was just perfect. Petra was more than just a wedding planner, she was a coordinator, which on the day you really don’t appreciate how much you need someone to do that. She remembered everything and added so many finishing touches that we just didn’t expect. Honestly, if you want to get married in Slovenia, use Petra, it really is as simple as that, shes just fantastic. (photographer: Neža Reisner Photography)

BECKY & BEN

When my husband and I decided to have a destination wedding in Slovenia, we picked Petra as our wedding planner due to her impressive credentials and radiating personality that she displayed in our introductory meeting. We had both been to Slovenia before, but we knew nothing about the wedding industry there, how things are planned, or what vendors to book. Petra’s recommendations for vendors and the venue proved to be exactly what we were looking for. It was one of the best days of my life, and Petra played a huge part in making it happen. While there was anxiety involved leading up to the event, on the day of the wedding everything came together perfectly. Petra was there with us to coordinate and she was always there when we needed her.

Every time I thought I needed her for something on our wedding day, she would somehow magically appear right there where you are needed to fix something, get the schedule back on track with dinner, take care of the presents, take care of the vendors. I mean, what is there to say other than – multitasking is definitely one of hers talents :))

The day could not have been more perfect, and Petra played a huge part in making it happen. All of our friends and family had an amazing time, the two of us had an amazing time, and we wanted to wholeheartedly thank Petra for being there with us and for us. It was a perfect day. Thank you – Petra! (photographer: Ana Gregorič Photography)

SMILJANA & JACOB

Petra, my Slovene wedding planner, you are a doll! You made planning overseas so much easier than it could have been. For nearly two years we have been planning and becoming friends – I enjoyed planning this dream day with you!! Thank you for ensuring everything went off without a hitch. ☺️‍♀️(photographer: Harley Bonham Photography)

SAMI & NATE

Let me begin with saying that our Wedding was everything we hoped it to be and more!
We began our relationship with Petra almost 3 years ago and she stayed with us and arranged for 4 wedding date changes due to the complexity of international travel during Covid… She did it all in a calm & collected manner but her most signature trait is her constant warm smile!! She helped with the entire planing process, managed all the vendors, finding and arranging options for party favors, managed the communication with the hotel, contracts, paperwork, payments, keeping us sane and more! We really did not realized what size of a “production” the wedding day itself is so I 100% recommend having a wedding planner on the day of the wedding! Petra will help make your day stress free so you can focus on yourself, your partner, and guests. We had no complications all day, at least none we knew of! Petra is a pleasure to work with and we would 10/10 recommend her for your next big event! ❤️ (photographer: Ana Gregorič Photography)

SARA & MARTIN

Petra is an excellent planner with a good knowledge of the Slovenian wedding market and plenty of experience organizing events for couples who don’t live in Slovenia. Petra also has great contacts. She coordinated flawlessly the logistics of the wedding day. Petra helped us make our wedding day magical and just the way we wanted it to be. We and our guests had a blast! The wedding definitely exceeded our expectations in every way. (photographer: Ana Gregorič Photography)

KATJA & CARLOS

We are an Indian couple living in Vienna and decided to have our destination wedding in Piran and the reception in Portoroz. Thank God we found Petra 😉 As everyone knows Indian weddings can be very challenging by nature and with approx. 125 guests coming from all over the world, we needed to hire a highly professional and experienced wedding planner and coordinator. We skyped a lot upfront and Petras team made sure that we could fully enjoy the most important day of our lives, while she was taking care of every little detail in the background. We loved the venue, the boats, the decoration, the food and so on and so forth, but most importantly Petras dedication and lovely character 🙂 So if you are looking for a really outstanding wedding planner in Slovenia, get in touch with Petra.

SHARON & PINTO

When you’re organizing a wedding abroad, a wedding planner is very important. When we were looking for a wedding planner, it was very important for us to have a good click with someone, but also to have a good feeling and trust. With Petra and her enthusiasm, everything was there  We started with no idea where we want to get married in Slovenia, and Petra helped us to find our dream location! She knows what she talks about and with all the doubts that a wedding brings (food, plan during a day, cake, etc), she gives good advice and gives you the feeling that everything will be ok. We were ready for the big day, and on the day itself, she was great! I don’t know how people do it without a wedding planner, besides the fact that everything was arranged perfectly, it was super nice that petra connects well with all the other vendors. So there is a really good vibe. Thank you again for the amazing day!  (photographer: Saša Adamovič Photography)

DANIELA & STJEPAN

We had a two-day multi-cultural wedding in Slovenia and Petra is the reason that this was possible. Since we don’t live in Slovenia we literally could not have done it without her. Her knowledge of wedding logistics and trusted vendors is amazing. She often suggested additions which in the end were crucial to the easy-going flow of events but at the same time, she also respected the wedding budget and never pushed into something fancier than we wanted. On our wedding day we basically just had fun and did not have to think about anything else. We are so grateful to you Petra. Thank you! (photographer: Nika and Grega  Photography)

JANJA & LARS

I still remember the serenity of that day, there was a time when I thought, “It’s all perfect” If we can give advice to those who are reading these lines: trust Petra, her good taste, her instincts, and her experience! Thank you for all the loving and professional work you did for us!!! You are absolutely wonderful. (photographer: Aperturia)

VESNA & MATEJ

We decided to involve Petra Starbek, because of her popularity. Well, I can confirm that she deserves her success, and even more. She comes into our crazy lives creating a masterpiece. Petra, together with her fantastic staff, realized exactly what I was imagining without being really able to describe. (photographer: Aleks in Irena Kus Wedding Photography)

ANDREJA & TINE

She helped us accomplish so much for our wedding in a very short period of time. We absolutely cannot thank her enough. Petra made an instant difference in our level of preparation and found us, fantastic vendors, virtually overnight. We loved all her recommendations, her impeccable taste, and especially her expertise with the vendors. We highly recommend Petra as a wedding planner, and only wish we had found her sooner. (photographer: Alen Karupovic Photography)

VERONIKA & JAROSLAV

Very professional and friendly. We would 100% recommend her to anyone who is thinking of proposing around Lake Bled. We feel like we had a fairytale proposal under a tree decorated with fairy lights. She did a great job of understanding who I am and what I wanted. From the very first phone call, I realized how many connections Petra has in the Lake Bled (Slovenia) market and her great relationships with vendors made the whole planning process go very smoothly. Petra and her team are the DREAM team. Thank you for creating memories that will for sure last a lifetime. (photographer: Alex B.)
