Having 5+ years in the lucrative wedding market, I've noticed that more couples are planning destination weddings. Making me realize that although travel and weddings are two very different business industries, there is greater success when the two come together. Thus, to create this perfect union for me, between travel and weddings; while allowing them to also stand independent of one another, I decided it best to obtain training in the Travel Industry.
I am a Certified Autism Travel Professional, Certified Special Needs & Accessible Travel Advocate, and a Specialist in Cruises (both Ocean & River), Destination Weddings & Honeymoons, and All-Inclusive Resorts. My specialty destinations are Mexico, Hawaii, the Caribbean and the South Pacific Islands.
As a wife and a mother, I understand the importance of family and spending romantic time with your significant other. I am mindful of a budget but will not sacrifice quality. I believe in giving my clients the biggest bang for their buck. Having a daughter born prematurely, I am personally familiar with how to plan a great vacation for those with special needs.
My love of helping people, enjoying life and attention to detail while providing superb services is why you should allow me to handle all you traveling needs - travel for all budgets, not sacrificing quality!!
Having worked in Corporate America, married and raised a family, I understand the importance of staying within a budget while still being able to have family vacations or just a special getaway with your significant other.
The Entrepreneurial spirit is great!!! It allows persons to turn their passions into income and help others with various services at the same time. I am a certified travel agent, working at Gleeful Travel offering assistance and referrals for all your traveling needs. I love to help people when and where I can and believe that each client is special and deserves to get personalized services to fit their specific needs and wants. it is my pleasure to serve you and send you on that vacation of a lifetime!
