I usually post from a beach but tonight we went to the Holly Jolly Journey absolutely beautiful. Very cold but well worth the cost. Well done guys!

Minimum wage is going up in Mexico in 2025 (by 12%). This means that minimum wage for an 8 hour day (NOT per hour, per DAY) is 278.80MXN or approximately $13USD per DAY.
Think about how much even a small tip goes at these rates. I try to make an extra effort to tip those who normally get forgotten at resorts-gardeners, cleaners in the lobby, airport washroom cleaners, etc. Housekeeping, waiters and bartenders work hard but will likely see the most tips-don't forget about those making the least who don't get as much attention-especially this holiday season.

✨👑 Meeting the Queen of the Riviera Maya! 👑✨

You might not recognize her, but this is the incredible Lori Gold —an absolute legend in the travel world! 🌴 I had the amazing opportunity to meet her in person while in Mexico, and yes, it was one of those geek-out moments when you meet someone you truly admire. 🥰

Lori is a walking encyclopedia of knowledge about everything Mexico, and her insights and expertise are an invaluable asset to the travel advisor community. 🌟 It was such an honor to connect with her and soak in her passion and wisdom.

Thank you, Lori, for all that you do for the industry and for inspiring travel advisors like me to create unforgettable experiences! 🛫💖

When in doubt go to the experts! I am a destination wedding, honeymoon and romance specialist. I am also my own worst client apparently lol. I am trying to plan my vow renewal on RCCL Odyssey in April. I have been trying to do research looking for options available but have not found much help. I wrote to the wedding department so far haven't heard back and it has been over a week. So last night I went to a vendor event that I was already scheduled to attend and guess who I ran into...my RCCL rep. I explained my issues and she told me RCCL DOES have vow renewal packages. I told her everything I am seeing suggests you have to buy into a wedding package. I decided I would document my journey in hopes of helping others. I am going to follow up with her and see what we can come up with. I will post everything here as it develops. Stay tuned!

The laptop law is no longer!

From the governor Mara Lezama:

As part of the working tables with the Director General of the National Customs Agency, Andre Georges Foullon Van Lissum, we removed this overdue tax, as part of the work to speed up the processes of care for visitors.”

Working hard in Jamaica. ��Most people don’t understand what a destination wedding travel agent does…
But it’s so much more than just booking flights and hotels. ✈️ Today, I’m on-site at a stunning Jamaican resort, walking through every detail to ensure my couples get the wedding of their dreams. �� From inspecting venues, tasting menus, and meeting with the local wedding team, to making sure the rooms and experiences are perfect for every guest.��
My goal? Take the stress off couples’ shoulders so they can focus on celebrating love. ❤️
