Planning something that is not on this list? Tell us about it.

Your event, beautifully handled.

You bring the occasion and the guest list. Everything that has to happen in Jamaica is ours to arrange.

  • Event planning

    Concept, design, timeline and run of show, built around the day you have in mind.

  • Vendor coordination

    We source the vendors, agree the terms and manage them for you, so you're not coordinating suppliers from another country.

  • Travel & guest logistics

    Airport pickups, hotels, transfers and excursions. Your guests arrive knowing where to be and how to get there.

You land. Everything is already in place.

Plan your celebration

How it works from abroad.

Four stages, from your first message to the day itself.

  1. The conversation

    You tell us what you're imagining: the date, roughly how many people, where you'd like to be and what you want to spend.

  2. The plan

    We come back with what's realistic in Jamaica, which vendors fit and what it will cost. You see the numbers before anything is committed.

  3. The coordination

    Once the scope and terms are agreed, we book and manage the arrangements and keep you updated as each piece is confirmed.

  4. The celebration

    We're on site on the day, running the schedule and handling whatever comes up, so you can be a guest at your own event.

Your person on the ground.

Planning from abroad should never mean wondering what's happening back home.

I'm Alayha Swaby, and I run Coast to Toast JA from Jamaica. I'm the one who walks the venue, meets the vendors, checks the setup on the morning of your event and answers the phone when you need something.

Questions, answered.

No. You can plan the whole thing from abroad over video calls, WhatsApp and email. We walk the venues for you, send photos and video, and take every in-person meeting. You arrive to a finished plan.

Everything we do: the planning, the coordination and everything listed in your chosen package. What sits outside it is what the vendors themselves charge, because we do not set their prices. Those are quoted on their own, so you can see exactly where the money goes.

Island-wide: Montego Bay, Negril, Ocho Rios, Port Antonio, Kingston and the smaller places in between. If you have somewhere specific in mind, tell us and we'll say whether it works.

Six to twelve months is comfortable for a larger event with guests travelling. Smaller celebrations can come together in weeks. Ask even if your date feels close, and we'll tell you what's still possible.

Yes. If you've already booked a photographer or a venue, we fold them into the plan and coordinate them alongside our own roster. You're never forced to drop someone you love.

We'll point you to the current requirements and timelines, and coordinate with your officiant so the paperwork lines up with your date. The filing itself stays between you and the Jamaican authorities. We make sure nothing is left to the last minute.

The planning fee secures your date. Vendor payments follow their own schedules, and you'll have a written breakdown of every cost before anything is committed. We accept bank transfer, Western Union, MoneyGram Online, JN Money Transfer, Xoom, Cash App and Apple Pay. The details for whichever you choose come with your booking confirmation, never on this page.

Gladly. A small dinner gets the same attention as a large celebration, and Yaad Ease is built for exactly that.

Let's plan it.

Tell us roughly what you have in mind and we'll come back with what it would involve and what it would cost. No obligation.
