Australia is one of the most remote countries in the world, and strangely enough, one of the most popular destinations to visit.

Having visited a few times, myself, I've seen firsthand what is so amazing about this country! No matter if you...

Congratulations!!! Happy Engagement!


Let the wedding planning begin. Are you looking for a Destination Wedding and not sure where to start? That is why I am here. Let me walk you through the resort options, the wedding details and find the perfect resort for you and your fiancée.


Do you have a vision for your wedding day and not sure where to begin or how to find it? Let me help you make that vision come to life. Are you surrounded by your closest family and friends, the salty sea air whirls around you, your toes can feel the sand as you walk down the aisle? Are you dancing under the stars with your friends and family on the beach and the fireworks start?  Does that sound like a dream come true? Let me help transform those dreams into reality!  Whether your ideal wedding spot includes a tiny chapel on an island, an intimate garden, or a tropical beach- I can help bring your idea come to life. By pairing my travel services with the partnership of on-site wedding planners, I can ensure that all your plans are handled with the ultimate care and detail. 


Planning each and every detail for your destination wedding and honeymoon is my specialty. It would be my honor to bring these ideas to life!

Great mother/son spring break vacation
Kristi did a great job planning our trip to Jamaica.
We traveled in a rather large group and everything went smoothly. She provided excellent customer service.
I would highly recommend her.

Great adults get away!
Kristi was wonderful to work with! In the beginning stages of our trip planning, she spent a lot of time gathering information for us. When I would switch my thinking of destinations Kristi always reassured me and would share information with me. She was dedicated, hard working and always willing to go the extra mile. I thought it was great when I received an email from her during our vacation-she was just checking in to make sure all was going well.
I highly recommend Kristi for your travel needs. She is excellent at what she does!
