Destination Weddings
and Group Travel

All-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean
 — expertly planned since 2012.

Done Right

"Good Enough"
Just Won't Work

You already know what kind of trip you want. The resort that actually delivers on the photos, the room that faces the ocean, and an experience that lives up to what you paid for. What you're not interested in is spending your limited free time digging through reviews trying to figure out which property is actually worth it.

That's exactly where I come in. I know these resorts — which ones deliver on their promises, which ones are better suited for weddings and group trips, and which ones will have your guests pulling you aside to say this was the best trip they've ever been on. You tell me your vision, your group, and your budget, and I handle everything from there.

The result? A trip that actually matches the hype. Every time.

You've got taste. You've got a vision. And you've got about zero free time to spend researching resorts.

PLAN YOUR NEXT vacation

Your Plate Just Got a Lot Emptier.

Here's what working with me actually looks like once you're booked: I handle the back and forth with the resort so you don't have to. I track deposits and payments so nobody falls through the cracks. I answer your guests' questions directly — the ones that would otherwise land in your inbox at 11pm. I coordinate transportation, sort out room assignments, and make sure everyone has what they need before they ever step foot on a plane.

You make the decisions. I do everything in between.

Planning a trip for a group of people — whether it's a wedding or a getaway — has a lot of moving parts that most people don't see until they're already buried in them. That's not going to happen to you. Because by the time any of that would become your problem, it's already been handled.

You've got enough on your plate already. Planning a destination wedding or group trip from scratch is a full-time job — and you already have one of those.

You said yes. Now comes the part where everyone has questions, nobody knows what a room block is, and your phone becomes a group chat with 60 people who all need something different.
That's exactly what I handle.
I specialize in destination weddings at all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean — and I work with you from the very first conversation to the moment your last guest lands safely back home. Here's what that actually includes:
A curated vision board of 4-5 resort options tailored to your vision and budget
Securing your room block and locking in your wedding date
Managing guest deposits, payments, and room assignments
Building and maintaining your wedding guest website
Handling all guest travel questions directly — so you're not the middleman
Coordinating airport transportation and resort communication
Sending regular travel updates to your guests in the weeks leading up to the trip

Your only job is to enjoy being engaged and show up ready to celebrate. Everything else is mine.

The group chat has been going for months. Everybody's in. Nobody's booked anything. Sound familiar?

If your crew is 10 rooms or more, I can take it from the "we should really do this" stage all the way to everyone standing at baggage claim with their carry-ons and their matching trip shirts.

I work directly with the group leader to find the right resort for your occasion, your vibe, and your budget — whether that's a milestone birthday, a bachelorette, a family reunion, or just a trip that's long overdue. Once we've locked in the property, I handle room bookings, payment coordination, and any special surprises you want the resort to pull off.
Once everyone's booked, it comes completely off your plate. You just get to be the person who made it happen.

Groups smaller than 10 rooms are welcome to submit a general inquiry — I'd still love to help.

Unforgettable

“Working with Carla was probably one of the best experiences ever.”

What can I say? Working with Carla was probably one of the best experiences ever. She makes everything so easy and her expertise is unmatched. Carla helped us find our destination wedding venue (without us having to travel). She would send us photos, videos and extras to assist us in our decisions. She also coordinated our wedding website, booked rooms for our guests, and helped with transportation to and from the airport. Mind you, we had over 150 people at this wedding. She also sent wonderful, informational emails to our guests to keep them updated and also on what to expect/pack. Our guests spoke and still speak very highly of Carla. Carla's service is the REAL DEAL and she is the WHOLE PACKAGE! If you are looking for someone to help plan a trip or destination wedding, look no further! I give Carla my highest recommendation!

“Over the year of planning my destination wedding, she became more than just a travel agent!”

From start to finish Carla was professional, friendly, and very personable! I worked with Carla for over a year to plan my wedding. She gave excellent suggestions, created a website, hopped on Zoom calls, and she's amazing when replying to emails! I know one thing for sure, all her personal touches didn't go unnoticed. All 75 of our guests raved about her! All of my international planning will ALWAYS go through Carla! I wish I could have given more stars!

“Just got back from another amazing vacation booked through Bon Voyage by Barbour!”

This is our family's second time employing Carla's services, and we couldn't be more pleased.

Carla gives comprehensive information about booking, payments, the resorts, and the surrounding environment. I've gone into both vacations armed with all the knowledge I need. She's also very quick with response time to any questions you may have. Carla is great at communicating with the resorts and advocating on behalf of her customers.

As we plan our next family adventure, we'll definitely have Carla help us make another dream vacation a reality!

“I have to acknowledge how well and smooth the travel experience was for me and my family during a recent trip to Jamaica.”

From the beginning to the end, Carla was very professional, attentive, and very detailed about what to expect being my first trip out of the country. I felt safer knowing that she had already booked our flight and our hotel, and made arrangements for transportation to and from the hotel to the airport. I had such a wonderful time and will definitely be considering her for my future travel plans.

“Carla is the very best when it comes to travel planning!”

Carla is the very best when it comes to travel planning! This time, she handled the accommodations for a friend’s wedding and everything went well! She communicated expectations and deadlines, she was responsive to questions, and provided us with excellent service! The resort was 10/10 and exceeded my expectations.

I plan to ask Carla to help me plan my 50th birthday trip!!
