About Me

Your Sandals Resort Over the Water Chapel
Your Sandals Resort Over the Water Chapel

With over a decade of experience planning Sandals weddings, I help couples turn dream celebrations into unforgettable, stress-free escapes. Think luxury hideaways, sunset ceremonies, and endless romance — without the planning overwhelm.

Whether you envision a barefoot ceremony in Jamaica, a sunset vow exchange in St. Lucia, a vibrant celebration in Curaçao, or a romantic hillside retreat at Sandals Grenada, these award-winning resorts offer the perfect backdrop for your love story.

As your Certified Sandals Wedding Specialist, I manage it all — from resort selection, group travel, and RSVP management to crafting a custom wedding webpage and creating a personalized planning board for the bride and groom.

Think of me as your travel advisor, guest concierge, and wedding guru all in one. I work hand-in-hand with the on-site Sandals wedding team to ensure every vendor, detail, and even the tropical cocktails align with your vision.

“Our Sandals wedding was pure magic – from the barefoot ceremony to the endless champagne! Thanks for making it perfect!” — Emily & Ryan

Best Travel Agent!
Reviewed By Jill Howard - New Jersey | Traveled to Turks and Caicos Islands ~ Caribbean
Hands down the best travel agent out there. We have been using Kariann for years. She is the most knowledgeable and thorough agent we have ever worked with. She always finds us the best deal and knows all the ins and outs of every destination. I love how organized she is. She always sends us the most comprehensive outline of our trip and every detail we would ever need to know. On our last trip to Turks and Caicos she was able to find us an amazing deal and find the best room to accommodate our family. She organized the most beautiful dinner on the beach for my husband and I, organized our photography session on the beach and told us all of the important travel details so we were prepared. When I panicked a few days before our trip, she called me and walked me though every detail. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and we will continue to recommend her to everyone we know.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Love Reunited in Jamaica: Planning a Dream Wedding

Some weddings are extra special — not just for the couple, but for me as their planner. When Nancy and John reached out about their destination wedding, I knew right away that this was going to be a truly meaningful celebration. They met in Jamaica 15 years ago, so saying “I do” in the same place where their love story began just felt meant to b...

Client Testimonials

Group Celebration at Beaches Turks & Caicos
Everything was amazing. The private birthday dinner was set up beautifully, and we had our own private servers who were incredibly attentive. The chocolate buffet was incredible, and every dinner we had was excellent. Having all of our dining reservations set up in advance made a huge difference, I can’t imagine coordinating that ourselves. Thank you for making my 50th birthday trip to Beaches Turks & Caicos so easy and seamless! - Party of 20, Birthday Celebration Group

The biggest and best family vacation we ever took!
We had an amazing week at Beaches Turks and Caicos. Kariann helped me for months trying to find the perfect destination for my large family (5 kids plus us). We finally landed on Beaches Turks and Caicos in the Italian Village that sleeps up to 9 people. It was such a beautiful resort - fun for my kids of ALL ages. Kariann helped with everything - even booking our photo shoot ahead of time! We received 2 credits - 1 for the spa and 1 for the adventure sports- and when the resort gave me an issue w applying the adventure credit, i had to pay it so we could leave on time, and Kariann address this and had the credit applied back to my card after we departed. I could have easily booked this hotel online myself, but it gives me confidence and comfort to know that I have a travel agent behind me to help guide me, and jump into assist however needed and fast- especially when we are out of the country! I highly recommend Kariann and will def us her services again next year.

Most amazing trip planned by the best travel agent
Thanks to Kariann, our trip to Turks & Caicos was incredible! We couldn't have done all of the planning without Kariann's help. From questions about the flight to packing to the resort, she was able to answer everything. We went there to celebrate our daughter's Sweet 16 and everything was planned perfectly. My daughter was thrilled with everything! Kariann was always available to answer all of my questions. She was patient and so helpful. Even while we were on our trip she reached out to us to see how everything was going. I had a small issue with a dinner reservation and Kariann stepped in to assist without hesitation. We use Kariann to plan all of our family vacations. I wouldn't use anyone else. We always recommend her to all of our friends and family. She is truly the best!!!

Perfect Catholic Destination Wedding!
Make sure you work with someone as wonderful as Kariann. John and I met in Jamaica about 15 years ago and then the Sandals in Ocho Rios had the over the water chapel where we could have a Catholic wedding ceremony, so that was just perfect! My favorite part of working with Zotto Travel was KARIANN!

Truly The Best!!
Kariann has been planning our family trips for years. We've done two Turks and Caicos trips, several European countries, and domestic getaways. Kariann is very patient, professional and 100% committed to ensure that everything is planned and executed to our fullest satisfaction. Any questions we came up with were fully addressed to our utmost satisfaction. Anything from plane seats to hotel accommodations, COVID testing requirements and documents, airport pick-ups, restaurants to eat in, sites to visit, insurance needs, excursions to take, etc, etc, etc. Every time we got to our destination there was a nice surprise waiting for us, a bottle of wine in Paris or delicious hors d'oeuvres with wine and music in a private gazebo in Turks and Caicos. Kariann is always available via email or phone for any questions, and we always felt taken care of and cared for. Kariann has always gone the extra mile and is truly the best. Thank you!
