My motto: Travel is for everyone

While I’ve planned hundreds of trips for clients—and dozens of my own—at this point, it wasn’t always like this. Growing up, travel was out of reach for my family logistically and financially.

Jetting off to Paris or Rome or the Mexican Riviera or the big lights of NYC? I dreamt about it—but I thought it wasn’t for me. It was for other people.

Until, one day, the wanderlust got the best of me and I confessed (or really, complained!) to my husband: “I want to go to New York City so badly.”

I’ll never forget how he looked back at me and said, even-keeled,

 “so just go.”

As if it was the simplest thing in the world. And for him, it was! He’d already criss-crossed the globe as a certified seasoned traveler. 

But for me, it was exactly the push—the permission—I needed. So I planned the trip, boarded the plane with my mom, and had the time of my life. After that first trip, my wanderlust kicked into high gear. I made a “30 before 30” bucket list, then a “40 before 40,” checking off the destinations I had only ever dared to dream of visiting.

Ultimately, I started DWD Travel to show that travel is not just for other people.
It’s for me—and it’s for YOU too!

Along the way to Rome, Hawaii, St. Lucia, and beyond, I not only fell in love with the thrill of travel, but with the thrill of planning the trip itself—making sure I was making the most of every single moment.

It is more do-able than you think—especially when you have an expert to plan it for you. 

So if you were waiting for “permission” to go BIG with your destination wedding, honeymoon, or couples’ escape, this is it. Embrace your spirit of adventure, your sense of wanderlust, and those travel dreams you’ve been cultivating for years, then share them with DWD.

We’ll make it all happen.

(As a kid, I dreamt of being a wedding dress designer, and I have the sketches to prove it!).

I’m always so honored when couples trust their special journeys to my team and I. That time together—whether it’s spent with family and friends or just the two of you—is so crucial to building your bond, and building a bank of memories you will both cherish forever.
