About Me

In my 20 years as a Travel Advisor, many of those years specializing in Romance Travel and I absolutely love it! Regardless of if you're looking for a Destination Wedding or a Honeymoon, they are a one-of-a-kind vacation that we can customize together making it truly a unique one-of-a-kind experience. Each couple is truly unique, and I promise to listen to listen to your dreams and turn them into reality. There are many beautiful resorts that are both perfect for weddings or your honeymoon but, like everything else in the wedding industry you have to plan ahead. I’m here and ready to help get your plans in motions. Looking forward to it.

A destination wedding is a unique and exciting way to celebrate the union of two individuals in love. Unlike traditional weddings that are often held in the hometown of the couple, a destination wedding takes place in a location that holds special meaning for the bride and groom or simply offers a stunning backdrop for their nuptials. These weddings have become increasingly popular in recent years, offering couples the opportunity to create unforgettable memories for themselves and their guests.One of the most appealing aspects of a destination wedding is the chance to host an intimate gathering of close friends and family in a beautiful and exotic location. Whether it's a tropical beach, a historic European city, a rustic mountain lodge, or a serene countryside vineyard, the destination sets the stage for a unique and memorable experience.Here are some key elements that make destination weddings so special:Scenic Backdrops: Destination weddings are often chosen for their breathtaking natural beauty or historical charm. Couples can exchange vows against the backdrop of a pristine beach, a majestic mountain range, a centuries-old castle, or a lush garden. The setting itself becomes an integral part of the wedding decor.Intimate Guest List: Destination weddings tend to have smaller guest lists, making it easier for the couple to spend quality time with each attendee. This intimate atmosphere allows for more meaningful connections and shared experiences during the celebration.Extended Celebration: Many destination weddings extend beyond a single day, turning into multi-day affairs. This provides ample opportunities for pre-wedding activities, such as welcome parties, rehearsal dinners, and post-wedding brunches, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in the destination's culture and ambiance.Unique Cultural Experiences: Destination weddings often incorporate local customs, traditions, and cuisine, giving guests a chance to immerse themselves in the culture of the chosen location. Whether it's a traditional Hawaiian luau, a Mediterranean feast, or a cultural dance performance, these experiences add a layer of authenticity to the celebration.Stress-Reducing Atmosphere: Contrary to the common belief that destination weddings are more stressful, many couples find them to be less demanding. Destination wedding packages offered by resorts and venues often include all-inclusive options, helping to streamline the planning process.Quality Time: Couples and their guests can enjoy quality time together, as everyone is typically staying in close proximity. This allows for shared adventures, relaxation by the pool, and other bonding experiences that might not be possible with a traditional wedding.However, it's important to note that destination weddings can also come with their own set of challenges, such as travel logistics, potential expenses for guests, and varying legal requirements depending on the location. Couples should carefully consider their guests' ability to travel and plan well in advance to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.In conclusion, a destination wedding offers a unique and memorable way for couples to celebrate their love in a stunning and meaningful setting. With careful planning and consideration, these weddings can create unforgettable moments that will be cherished by both the couple and their loved ones for years to come.

Amazing Trip to Rome
Reviewed By Terri W - Watertown MN | Traveled to Rome ~ Italy ~ Europe
Daena was AMAZING to work with!! She was very excited to help us plan our trip to Italy! She helped save us money on both hotel and flights using our frequent flyer miles as well as having our hotel close, but not too close, to city center and within walking distance. She gave us so many ideas of things to see while in the area and recommending the best ways to get around in Rome. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone traveling to Italy, she knows the area very well!! She was always available to me, even while she was traveling cross county in the US as well as traveling in Italy herself! Shelly likes to travel and it shows!!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing Trip
Reviewed By Mary K - Bloomfield Hills, Michigan | Traveled to Alaska ~ USA
Daena did a wonderful job of planning and making all of the arrangements for our cruise vacation to Alaska. She handled the flights, accommodations before and after our cruise, all cruise arrangements, all cruise excursions, dinner reservations, absolutely everything. She made sure everything we needed was handled and we could just enjoy our vacation. I have used Daena in the past and will definitely use her in the future. I highly recommend having her plan your next trip!
