Destination Weddings ~ It's not a job, it's a passion

After working as a travel consultant for a couple of years a young lady called me interested in a destination wedding. "A destination wedding?!" The feeling of excitement and nervousness overtook me. It sounded like something that would be a perfect fit for me but I had never done something like that before and I was afraid of the pressure of making sure her special day went perfectly. After a lot of research, deciding on a resort and date, talking with each guest individually throughout the following 6 months 'the' day had finally come.

Was everyone going to remember everything I told them??? Did I forget a big piece of information??? Please LORD don't let it rain!

I eagerly waited 2 days after they had returned home to call each one individually to see how the experience was. To my surprise, everyone loved it! In fact, most of them were ready to start discussing their next trip!

The entire experience had inspired me to start focusing on helping arrange destinations weddings. Sure it is stressful but the end result is so incredibly worth it!

Now, let me slap you with some reality here for a second... we have had our share of nightmare weddings as well. There isn't enough time in the day to get started on those but please know that there are certain people in the world who are simply bitter and unhappy. You know the type, the ones who hardly smile and when they do it is not genuine at all. The ones who are pessimistic about every.little.thing and who seem to somehow enjoy complaining until their head is spinning.

There is probably just 1 out 10 weddings that end up going in the that direction which isn't bad. Not bad at all. Just like everything you have to take the good with the ugly.

Through the past 4 years I have thoroughly enjoyed helping brides and their guests get the best wedding vacations possible. My goal is to always make sure everyone has a fun and memorable time with their closest family and friends in a paradise setting.

The Weddings by Legacy Travel blog is a project that I have been working on to showcase our past weddings and to give future brides some inspiration and ideas. You can look over it in all of it's fabulousness here: http://www.weddingsbylegacytravel.com/








While I help with all sorts of travel, my favorite kinds to help with are romance travel and family travel.


Have a blessed weekend and enjoy the weather while it lasts!
