About Julie

• How long have you been planning destination weddings?
  I have been making travel arrangements since 1979-my first Destination wedding was in Aspen Colorado in 1996. While the weather played havoc. All had a great time.

• Why did you choose to become a Destination Wedding Specialist?
  I opted to become a Destination wedding specialist as the course offered great suggestions to help the bridal party and the guests. I take the course annually to stay on top of trends to better serve my customers.

• What’s your favorite part of the job?
  My best part of the job is every aspect of the planning process. It is a happy occasion. Seeing the photos afterwards let me know of an event well done!

• Which destination is your favorite and why?
  My favorite destination is Jamaica...could be as I was married on the beach in Negril.

• Do you have a wedding story you would like to share with us?
  I once had a destination wedding set for Mexico. Two days before the group was scheduled to leave, a hurricane come through and destroyed the resort and most resorts in the area. I was able to get the entire group rebooked for Punta Cana in a similar hotel and the entire wedding and reception arranged before they left. A great reason why you should let an expert plan your destination wedding.

• Do you have a quick tip for us?
  Best tip I can provide is to use a travel expert when planning your Destination Wedding or Honeymoon
