DO YOU WORK WITH WEDDING PACKAGES LIKE OTHER COMPANIES IN CUBA?
It’s one of the questions we get the most, and the answer is no. At Aire de Fiesta, we don’t work with preset packages or predesigned offers. Every wedding is designed from scratch, tailored to each couple’s style, priorities, and expectations.
In Cuba, it’s common for wedding services to be offered as fixed packages, where everything is included—from the cake to the photographer—without clarity on who is behind each element or how much each service costs individually. We work differently, because we believe in transparency and personalization.
Each budget is structured with separate items: decoration, photography, video, flowers, catering, music, and more. This way, you know exactly what you’re hiring, who’s providing it, and how much each element costs. It allows you to make informed decisions and maintain real control over your event.
Thanks to this approach, we can deliver high-level results without limiting you to a fixed format or imposing services you don’t need or providers you can’t verify.
We mainly work in Havana, where our headquarters are located and where we have the best conditions to deliver both our decoration and coordination services at the quality level that defines us. From here, we frequently travel to other destinations, especially Varadero, where we’ll soon be opening a small local base.
También hemos trabajado en locaciones como Viñales y los cayos. Aunque no son destinos habituales, podemos organizar bodas en cualquier parte del país. Trasladamos parte de nuestro equipo, inventario y, en muchos casos, también a nuestros proveedores habituales si en el destino no encontramos opciones que nos den plena confianza. Esto eleva el presupuesto (traslados y alojamiento), pero si la pareja está lista para asumir ese tipo de producción, para nosotros siempre es un gusto hacerlo posible.
DO YOU ORGANIZE WEDDINGS ALL OVER CUBA OR ONLY IN HAVANA?

CAN WE HIRE DECORATION ONLY WITHOUT COORDINATION?
CAN WE HIRE DECORATION ONLY WITHOUT COORDINATION?
It’s not common, since most of our clients are looking for a full-service event where we can guarantee the quality of all services involved—not just the decoration.
However, we understand that in some cases it’s not possible to hire all services through our providers. If that’s your case, we can talk about your event and assess whether it’s feasible for us to take on only the decoration.
CAN I RENT THE FURNITURE?
CAN I RENT THE FURNITURE?
We do not rent out our furniture or decorative elements separately. All items in our inventory are reserved exclusively for the events we design and coordinate, as they are part of Aire de Fiesta’s identity.
We work with high-quality furniture and make sure it’s in excellent condition at the time of setup. It’s how we ensure that every celebration reflects the level and style that define us.
HOW CAN I PLAN MY WEDDING IN CUBA IF I LIVE ABROAD?
HOW CAN I PLAN MY WEDDING IN CUBA IF I LIVE ABROAD?
Most of the weddings we coordinate are for couples living outside of Cuba. We recommend planning a trip not at the beginning of the process, but once we’ve advanced in the proposals and made key decisions. That’s the perfect time to meet essential vendors and do tastings.
Still, it’s not essential: many couples arrive for the first time just a week before the wedding. During those days, we carry out the necessary trials for everything we’ve already planned remotely—makeup, food, final adjustments, and anything that needs in-person validation.
Having a trusted local team ensures everything runs smoothly and safely.
DO YOU ONLY ORGANIZE WEDDINGS OR ALSO OTHER TYPES OF EVENTS?
DO YOU ONLY ORGANIZE WEDDINGS OR ALSO OTHER TYPES OF EVENTS?
Although our website and social media focus mainly on showcasing real weddings — as this builds trust with many couples who hire us from abroad — we also organize other types of celebrations, as long as they align with our aesthetic.
Corporate Events
We regularly work with major tourism and corporate brands in Cuba. We collaborate with hotel chains such as Iberostar and Meliá, as well as with Gaviota and the Ministry of Tourism.
Birthdays and private celebrations
We design exclusive family celebrations, carefully crafting every detail to create memorable experiences that reflect our style.
Quinceañera celebrations
Although it’s not a service we showcase often, we also organize quinceañera celebrations. They have a structure similar to a wedding — we take care of the concept, production, and decoration with the same standard of quality.
DO YOU ORGANIZE GAY WEDDINGS IN CUBA?
DO YOU ORGANIZE GAY WEDDINGS IN CUBA?
Yes. At Aire de Fiesta, we’ve been organizing gay weddings in Cuba long before same-sex marriage became legal. Today, we continue to support both symbolic ceremonies and legal weddings between same-sex couples.
If the couple prefers only a symbolic ceremony, we design a personalized experience based on their story, style, and wishes.
If they prefer to include the legal part of the wedding, we can also help coordinate all the paperwork required to formalize the civil marriage in Cuba.
If you want to learn more about how we organize gay weddings in Cuba —and see real examples—, we invite you to read Gay wedding in Cuba: symbolic, legal or just the way you dream it.
