5 stars isn’t enough! I worked with Tamika for about two years completely online while planning our destination wedding in Turks and Caicos and I can honestly say, I couldn’t have done it without her. From our very first conversation, she made me feel confident, excited, and completely supported throughout the entire process.
Her knowledge of the island and her relationships with local vendors were priceless. Every recommendation she made from our florist to the DJ to our venue turned out to be perfect. She helped me bring my exact vision to life, even from thousands of miles away. What I appreciated most was her patience, communication and calm presence. Wedding planning can be stressful but she made everything feel smooth and stress free. The day of our wedding was an absolute dream and I know it wouldn’t have been possible without her behind the scenes making it all happen seamlessly.
If you’re planning a wedding in Turks and Caicos look no further. Tamika is the best of the best. I’ll forever be grateful!
Working with Tamika Handfield was truly a dream come true. She took what could have been a stressful wedding planning experience and handled every detail with exceptional care, thoughtfulness, and precision. We never had to chase for answers or worry that something might fall through the cracks—Tamika and her incredible team consistently went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. From a workout class to a welcome party, to our ceremony, reception, and afterparty—each event at The Palms was flawlessly executed and absolutely stunning.
We got married at The Shore Club on November 7, 2024, and we truly could not have done it without Tamika. From the very beginning, she was the most helpful, organized, and calming presence throughout the entire planning process. Over the course of a full year, she guided us through every detail with care, patience, and expertise—and always with a smile.
Planning a destination wedding can feel overwhelming, but Tamika made it seamless. Her attention to detail, quick responses, and genuine passion for creating beautiful weddings gave us so much peace of mind. On the big day, everything was absolutely perfect—and that was all thanks to her. If you’re lucky enough to have Tamika as your planner, you are in the best hands. We are beyond grateful for everything she did to make our wedding unforgettable.
It was overwhelming when my son told me that he and his fiancée would be having their wedding in Turks and Caicos. I had no idea how I would plan a rehearsal dinner for 80 people, followed by a Welcome Party for 180, without ever seeing the venue. I spent some time talking to a few venue options, but after my first conversation with Tamika Handfield, I was immediately put at ease and the decision became simple. Tamika was so friendly and calming and she assured me that everything would be OK and that she would handle everything. Being a very particular hostess, I had lots of questions and worries, and Tamika always responded with intention, best options and patience. She helped me design the menu from the Welcome Drinks through the desserts, and everything in between! Tamika was very knowledgeable on which selections would work best for our size event and the time of the year.
Tamika truly brought our dream wedding to life! Planning a destination wedding in Turks and Caicos felt overwhelming at first, which is why my (now) husband and I chose a longer engagement- three years! From the very beginning, Tamika was with us every single step of the way.
She handled all of the communication with the resort’s departments (reservations, food & beverage, etc.) as well as provided us with outside vendors needed for both the wedding night and additional events throughout the weekend. Her recommendations were spot on. From flowers to DJ, hair, makeup, and photographer- every single vendor she guided us toward was phenomenal. They all came together perfectly, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better team.
One of the things we appreciated most was how organized and attentive she was. Tamika always had our next call scheduled, and as we got closer to the wedding, her check-ins became more frequent. Her detailed notes and thoughtful follow-ups eased so many worries (especially since we weren’t local) and gave us complete confidence that everything was under control.
When the weekend finally arrived, we had 115 of our closest family and friends join us, and it was truly perfect. Our reception was picture-perfect, straight out of our dreams, and everything flowed effortlessly. If there were any hiccups behind the scenes, we never knew, because Tamika took care of it all.
Thanks to her, our wedding wasn’t just beautiful- it was magical, unforgettable, and everything we had ever hoped for.
