Destination Wedding & Honeymoon Q&A

Picture
So, you've got the ring, maybe the venue, you've chosen the date. But one problem looms... 
You don't know where to go on your honeymoon. 
Sitting in front of the computer, looking for just the right "deal" is getting to be overwhelming and you just wish you knew which resort/hotel was the best option for you.  Sound familiar?

After much feedback from our honeymoon couples, we've put together this Q&A section in order to help you make an informed decision on who to work with.  We want your honeymoon planning process to be fun and special. 

What if I don't know where I want to go?  Can you help?  In a big way!  We are available for appointments in person, over the phone or Skype.  Before our appointment, we'll send you our Free "Honeymoon Quiz" to get plenty of information on your ideal honeymoon (whether you want a big or small resort, beach or other, room and resort expectations, etc...).  We come to the meeting prepared with no more than three unique proposals, designed specifically for you.  Each one will be selected to fit your budget, personality and preferences.  That way, you have just 3 options to choose from instead of thousands.   We know it can be overwhelming to make the right choice, even to narrow down which country to travel to.  That's why we are here.  We love to help couples.  Not every resort works for every couple.  We'll talk to you from first hand experience to help you decide which one is right for you.

I want the best value.  Won't it cost more to use a travel agent?  Great question!  It won't cost more.  However, you'll probably get a better package at a better price.  We have exclusive agreements with resorts because of our volume and our affiliation with Virtuoso that gives us the ability to get our clients free upgrades, added amenities and better pricing.  We don't charge Honeymoon couples a fee to book a honeymoon or Destination Wedding.  It actually makes perfect sense to use our services, since it saves you stress and time without costing you more money.  You can see on other pages how our recent clients have felt about our services.

What is a Destination Wedding Specialist?  We have the contacts at our fingertips to give you accurate group quotes.  Group weddings deal with contracts.  Please do not go into a contract situation with someone who has not had that experience before.  We work with hotel contracts on a daily basis and know what is standard and what can be negotiated for your benefit.  We know how to work behind the scenes so that you are spared the stress of the negotiations.  After the contract is signed, our job is very detail oriented.  We work to keep you informed of every booking made - without you having to actually stress out about any of details.  From start to finish, we are here to make sure you have all the answers you need.  We will help with save the dates, and more.  Please download our Free E-book for more tips on the subject of Destination Weddings.  A destination wedding specialist is not just another travel agent.  They have the resort connections to know who to call to solve your problems when something goes wrong on property.  They can handle your pre-wedding stress and make your life easier.  When things go wrong, they know the best way to solve the issue.  Here's an example of what can happen by booking with the wrong agent:  You find out your resort has been over-booked and part of your wedding party is going to be shipped to a "sister" resort in the same city, and shuttled back and forth for the wedding festivities.  Or, you find out that your ceremony time has been double booked and therefore yours is being bumped to the next day.
How do we handle this?  We prevent it!  Our agency has intentionally forged connections and alliances.  We have a "no walk" policy at the resorts that we book so that our wedding groups cannot be turned away if a resort overbooks itself.  We are well trained and experienced in reading contracts so that you are protected at all times from avoidable situation that could potentially ruin your day.  Ask us any question you want, we are ready to help you gear up for a fantastic group wedding- it's our specialty!
