To get started, you’ll book your complimentary consultation call with me—I’d love to meet you virtually to learn more about your vacation vision, your travel likes (and dislikes!), who you’re traveling with, and your budget. I’ll collect all these details so I can serve up a trip that has “you” written all over it!
If you decide to work with me, I’ll send over my Planning Fee invoice and begin researching your best options. You’ll receive a trip proposal featuring 1-2 resort options; my goal is to get it right the first time! If I’ve been to the resort personally, I’ll also share “real life” photos and feedback, along with a pricing breakdown of your room options.
Once you review your proposed itinerary, I’ll make any tweaks needed to make it perfect. Then I’ll collect your trip deposit to lock in your dates. As your departure date inches closer, I’ll make other needed travel bookings like your flights and excursions and keep you informed of payment deadlines (yes, I offer payment plans!) and must-know travel and destination information.
Pack your best sunnies—it’s time for takeoff! While you travel, rest assured you have my support back home if you need it; simply reach out if you encounter any travel hiccups and I’ll help. Otherwise, sit back, relax, and revel in your very own stress-free, sun-splashed getaway!
“I booked my honeymoon trip with Champagne and Sunshine Vacations and will never book another trip without them! They took care of everything from booking the resort, to booking flights and everything in between. I always felt like I had nothing to worry about because we were in the best hands. They made sure we had everything ready and packed before leaving which made our travel day so much easier. I highly recommend looking over their packing list, not an item is left out! We could not recommend Jen enough and can’t wait to book another trip soon!”
“Jen is amazing at what she does. We wanted a memorable, relaxing 10-year anniversary trip, but with two young children at home and jobs we wanted to leave the planning and bookings to a pro. So happy with the whole process from the complimentary video call before you choose her for her to get an idea of what you are looking for, to making all of your reservations from hotel, plane, restaurants and excursions. Our trip to Bucuti & Tara in Aruba was exactly what we wanted! Highly recommend Jen and will definitely take advantage of her services again for future trips! Thank you!!”
“Jen worked with me and my MIL to plan a family vacation. She took everyone’s thoughts into the planning and came up with a brilliant vacation. Jen narrowed down the choices based on our preferences and did a zoom call with the whole family. Her presentation included everything from pictures to activities to room options. It was very impressive. I can’t wait to work with her for our next trip.”
I do charge a Planning Fee to cover my time researching your options, booking your travel, and providing one-on-one support all along the way. This fee can vary depending on the kind of vacation you’re after, so I’ll share it with you after our complimentary consultation call together. To give you an idea of my fees, the Planning Fee for an all-inclusive resort starts at $150 per trip, and the Planning Fee for a boutique resort starts at $300 per trip.
In most cases, yes! Resorts typically require a deposit up front to lock in your reservation, and then you’ll need to meet spaced-out payment deadlines leading up to your trip. I’ll keep you up to date on your payment plan deadlines for you!
Generally speaking, the sooner the better! The sooner you start planning your resort escape, the sooner you can lock in the best resort and room options—especially if you’re planning on visiting during the high season of December through April. A rough rule of thumb would be at least 6-9 months out for a vacation, and 12-18 months out for a destination wedding. Don’t have that kind of time? Then still reach out to me; as a travel professional I can sift through inventory quickly and still find your best options for more last-minute escapes!
That’s exactly why you book with me! If your flight is delayed, your transfer doesn’t show up, or you just need advice on what to do, you can reach out to me directly. I’m your safety net behind the scenes, so you don’t have to spend your vacation on hold with a call center.
All-inclusives in Mexico and the Caribbean are my specialty, but I also work with A la carte boutique properties that offer something a little more unique. When working with these properties, I assist in finding the most amazing off-site restaurants and will make all of your dining and activity reservations. Depending on your travel style, we’ll find the resort that feels like the best fit for you.
