La Casa de la Playa Xcaret

Hi there! I’m an award-winning destination wedding and travel specialist with 17 years of experience helping couples, families, and travelers explore the world with ease. Travel has always been my passion, and I love turning that passion into meaningful, memorable experiences for the people I work with.As a destination wedding specialist, I know how exciting—and sometimes overwhelming—planning a wedding away from home can be. My job is to make everything feel simple and stress-free. I help couples choose the perfect location, coordinate all the travel details, and make sure every guest feels taken care of. Watching a couple say “I do” in a place they’ve dreamed about never gets old, and I feel truly honored every time I’m part of that journey.I’m also proud to be recognized for my work in luxury travel. Whether it's a romantic escape, a private villa stay, a bucket-list adventure, or a beautifully curated itinerary filled with special touches, I love creating elevated experiences that feel personal and effortless—not just “fancy.” To me, luxury is about comfort, care, and moments you’ll want to relive again and again.And of course, family vacations are a huge part of what I do. Designing trips that bring families closer together is one of the most rewarding parts of my work. From multigenerational adventures to theme-park fun to relaxing beach getaways, I make sure every detail is handled so families can simply enjoy being together.People often tell me they appreciate my friendly approach, my patience, and how easy I make the planning process feel. I genuinely care about my clients, and I love getting to know their personalities, preferences, and dreams so I can create a trip that feels just right for them.After 17 years in this industry, I still get excited every time I begin planning something new. Whether you're dreaming of a stunning destination wedding, a luxury escape, or your next unforgettable family adventure, I’d love to help bring it to life.Let’s make something amazing happen!

Happy Clients

We hired Sheila to help plan our destination wedding in the Dominican Republic! Sheila has been very accommodating and very easy to talk to! You can tell she loves what she does not only by how well she does it but by how dedicated she is at planning your dream wedding! We couldn’t have found someone better.

I would highly recommend Away U Go to anyone looking to book a trip or destination wedding. Everything was arranged tremendously and we felt well taken care of. Away U Go thinks of everything! Thanks again for a wonderful time!

Caribbean cruise with Mum
Reviewed By Soccer Chick - Airdrie, AB | Traveled to Caribbean Sea ~ At Sea ~ At Sea
Sheila was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the moment I made the call, Sheila was on top of things and made booking my cruise a breeze. Sheila provided me with options and all the details I needed. I appreciated her timely responses and follow-up. At times, it felt more like chatting with a friend than a travel agent. I will certainly call Sheila again the next time the travel bug bites me !
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Professional attitude and dedication to our needs were second to none.
Reviewed By HappyCouple - Richmond,BC | Traveled to
My fiance and I have been trying to plan our wedding. After looking into having it locally, we were overwhelmed by the cost. We decided to take what we thought was the easy route and do a destination wedding.After dealing with a few different travel agencies, we found ourselves even more frustrated. No one seemed to be able to answer our questions nor did they seem care to make the time. We came across Sheila Her professional attitude and dedication to our needs were second to none. She answered all our questions in a timely fashion. Weddings can be a daunting task to undertake and Shelia made everything enjoyable and set my fiancé at ease. Definitely a big plus for any guy!!!! If you are planning a wedding or just a vacation. I would highly recommend Sheila. She is a great person to deal with and just a wonderful person all round.Not only have we found a fantastic travel agent for our future travels but also a caring and supportive friend.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

First trip in over 10 years!
Reviewed By Mamabear26 - Rockyview County, AB | Traveled to Puerto Morelos ~ Quintana Roo ~ Mexico
Working with Sheila was an absolute treat and made all every aspect of the planning a breeze. I went in with a bit of an idea of what I wanted and Sheila was amazing at getting the info to me no matter how many times I messaged and asked about a resort. She was informative and very patient with me. This was our first trip in over 10 years and we had some specific things we wanted and she was amazing at providing them. If you want someone who is willing to work for you then Sheila is it!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
