I have planned honeymoons, destination weddings, family reunions, corporate groups and individual vacations for many clients. I have traveled extensively to many destinations which include Alaska, Hawaii, Europe (France, Spain, Germany, and England), Mexico, Australia  and the Caribbean. I can give great insider tips on where to stay, eat and shop (and where to find the bargains). When I plan a trip for someone, I plan it like my own family. Paying attention to the details and making sure everything is in order for a stress free vacation. My motto is "We do not remember days, we remember moments" Let me help you plan your next vacation and help you create your special memory.
