This post is loooooong overdue, but oh my gosh, can we just talk about how 2023 was absolutely bonkers in the best way possible?

It's like one minute I'm chasing after Ari, who's becoming such a big girl, and the next, I'm watching little Aaliyah, who's now 14 months old, take her first steps – talk about heart-melting moments, eh?

And then there's the whole whirlwind of destination weddings! I mean, who knew I'd be zipping around, helping couples say 'I do' in the most gorgeous spots and helping others book their dream vacation in Maldives? It's been a wild yet amazing ride, and I'm just so grateful for every bit of it. 😇

I owe it all to my ever-reliable hubby, Jermaine – seriously, this guy deserves a medal or something. He's been holding down the fort, between working and juggling everything from toddler tantrums to school pickups, all while I'm out there living my dreams.
Not to worry, I'll take him on a quick trip to say thank you! 🤭🫶

While 2023 is nothing short of amazing, I can tell that 2024 is going to break my records further. It's only January, and yet we only have 2 spots left for 2024 Destination Weddings! 👰‍♀️👸

Aside from more beautiful weddings in more incredible destinations, I am also looking forward to more of our family's cute and crazy moments.

To you who's reading this (and even if you're not lol), thank you for making our 2023 count, and I look forward to helping your passport get more stamps in 2024. Haha. Kidding aside, sincerely thank you! ✈️⏳️🌞

Here's to a 2024 full of love and travel,
Mel

P.S. This is Aaliyah living her best life in Jamaica!
