About Me

Destination Wedding
Destination Wedding

 Travel has always been more than a job to me, it’s a passion, a joy, and a way to help people create beautiful memories that last a lifetime. I love working with solo travelers, families, and groups of all sizes to design journeys that feel thoughtful, seamless, and truly unforgettable.

With more than 40 years in the travel industry, I bring deep knowledge, trusted connections, and a true appreciation for what makes a trip feel special. From selecting exceptional destinations and comfortable accommodations to arranging smooth transportation and memorable experiences, I focus on every detail so your travel feels effortless from the very beginning. Whether you are dreaming of a peaceful beach escape, an exciting adventure, a cultural experience, or a perfect combination of all three, I take pride in crafting itineraries that reflect your style, interests, and pace.

Groups hold a special place in my heart. I understand how important it is to create a travel experience that feels organized, enjoyable, and rewarding for everyone involved. From family reunions and corporate retreats to special interest tours, I handle the details with care, from lodging and transportation to activities and special touches that bring the group together. My goal is to make group travel feel smooth, elevated, and stress free.

Because I stay active in travel and keep up with the latest trends, I’m always looking for meaningful experiences, exclusive perks, and exceptional value to share with my clients. My strong relationships with airlines, resorts, hotels, and local guides help me offer the kind of insider access and personalized service that can make all the difference.

I take the time to understand your vision, your preferences, your budget, and the kind of experience you truly want. Then I turn that into a trip that feels polished, personal, and beautifully planned from start to finish.

Whether you are planning a romantic getaway, a family vacation, a solo adventure, or a grand group celebration, I would love the opportunity to help bring your travel dreams to life.

Reach out anytime, and let’s begin planning your next unforgettable escape.

Destination Wedding & Honeymoon Travel Specialist

As a Destination Wedding and Honeymoon Travel Specialist, I love helping couples celebrate their love in beautiful destinations around the world.

From romantic destination weddings and intimate elopements to unforgettable honeymoons, I create personalized travel experiences that are seamless, stress free, and filled with meaningful details. I help couples choose the perfect destination, resort, and experience based on their vision, budget, and style.

Honeymoons are especially close to my heart, and I enjoy designing romantic escapes that may include luxury resorts, beach retreats, adventure, or custom experiences tailored just for two.

Incomparable Service!
Reviewed By BIgDaddy - St. Peters, Missouri | Traveled to Riviera Maya ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Service Extraordinaire! I am supremely satisfied with Jan’s service. I admit I am picky and ask for numerous little quirks on vacation, and Jan continually accomplishes everything I ask for and even comes up with perks I hadn’t even thought of. And her prices are always better than I can get on discount travel websites. I ask myself why should I go anywhere else? And the answer is, I don’t!

Lindt Chocolate Museum - Zurich

My Switzerland Journey

My journey began in the cosmopolitan city of Zurich.  It was here that I discovered a haven of indulgence - the Lindt Chocolate Museum.  This wasn't just a visit, it was an immersion into the heritage of Swiss chocolate, where the air is rich with cocoa and the secrets of Lindt's master chocolatiers unfold before your eyes.  I dove into the worl...

Great Family Vacations
My husband and I travel with our children as often as possible. We love travel! Jan always takes great care of us and finds us travel deals that are affordable for a family of 5. We always travel to all-inclusive resorts and we rely on Jan to make recommendations for us. We've always trusted her and every resort we visited has been perfect for our family.
