Do you charge planning fees?
Depending on your itinerary and the scope of your needs, some planning fees may apply. Please contact us for more details. However, if you are registered at Bloomingdale’s, our planning services are complimentary to you!
I’ve never worked with a Travel Consultant before. What are the benefits of booking with you when it is so easy to book online?
Unlike the average travel booking website, we take time to get to know you. It is our job to find the best value. We have access to amenities you just can not get on your own- like complimentary upgrades and airfare and hotel rates that are not published online.
Do I have to meet with you in person to plan my trip?
No, we encourage consultations by phone and send itineraries and pricing by email.
You are known for specializing in honeymoons and destination weddings. Do you provide any other travel services?
We do honeymoons and destination weddings all day everyday, even Travel + Leisure and Conde Nast say we do it best! But, we also do family trips, vacations, foodie-focused travel – even getaways for your pets!
Yes, we work with all budgets and can tailor a trip that works for you.
I already booked my air. Would you just book hotels? Or how about a tour?
Yes! We can book any and all segments of your itinerary.
I'm registered at Bloomingdale's and was told I receive "Perfect Perks". What are they?
Perfect Perks are complimentary value-added benefits. Since all trips are custom, perks vary depending on where you want to go. Some examples include: a dinner for two at a restaurant in Bora Bora, a luau in Maui, or a spa treatment in the Caribbean.
