We provide personalized service to you and your guests every step of the way, from helping you find the perfect destination that works for your budget and style to working with you & the resort wedding coordinator as needed and booking all your and your guest travel arrangements.

Let a travel professional assist you with the biggest day of your life and provide you with the kind of support and direction this life changing experience deserves.

Destination Wedding Benefits:

Getting married away is becoming more and more popular for several reasons:

• It is less costly than a traditional marriage for the bride & groom
• It allows you to spend several days, rather than a few hours, with friends and family
• It takes much of the stress out of the planning
• It combines your honeymoon and your wedding in an idyllic setting

Where do you start planning your trip of a lifetime?

• By working with Starshadow Travel's Destination Wedding specialists, of course!

Why work with Starshadow Travel?

• We have travelled to many top romantic destinations worldwide and visited many top hotels and wedding coordinators.
• While we are a small family business that CARES about your wedding and makes sure it is the best experience for you, your friends and your family, we are also affiliated with a multi-billion dollar global marketing organization that has a long-standing relationship with top suppliers in every travel segment, translating to some of the most significant buying power in the industry.
• We hold several certifications and destination specialist courses
• We have an extensive network of contacts locally and abroad who specialize in products and services, especially for wedding couples.

We are here for you - before, during and after your trip providing you with the following:

• Emergency service 24/7
• Before, during and after-travel resolution assistance on those occasions, something should go awry - hurricanes, pandemics, airport shutdowns/delays, etc.
• Resources - we use many resources over and above the internet, such as travel courses and seminars, familiarization trips, client reports, tourist board information, supplier opinions and reports from governments, travel advisory firms and even supplier competitors.

Is using a travel professional more costly than researching your trip on the internet?

• The internet is terrific for research but beware of photos that misrepresent, websites that misrepresent and sell travel without the human touch, leave you on your own to figure it out, with nobody to reach out to should anything go wrong; this can result in a very costly mistake and a subpar vacation experience.

Here's how our services provide a stress-free wedding:

• We'll create your private page on our website for your guests, highlighting travel details, including photos of you and your fiance, the hotel or venue, trip pricing and how to book.
• We'll inform you of the country's marriage legalities, rules, regulations and documentation requirements, including translations.
• Insurance discussion with your guests to ensure their health and investment are protected.
• We'll make sure you and your guests have the correct travel requirements (how to obtain passports, visas and tourist cards, single parent/guardian travel requirements, health requirements such as vaccines, anti-malaria/diarrhea, and security issues)
• Advise on travel advisories, specific entry requirements for your destination, and re-entry to Canada requirements.
• On-site wedding coordination liaison - we'll connect you with the on-site coordinator and help ensure smooth coordination for services such as flowers, photography, decor, etc.

What are some of the benefits of travelling as a group?

• The biggest one - besides the camaraderie - as the bride and groom, you can often travel at a discount (sometimes free), and your guests will receive any discounts & group benefits as well.
• We know the best tour operator group promotions.
• We'll negotiate your group contracts to ensure your friends and family can get there and not face a sold-out situation.
• Making sure payment deadlines are met so you can plan with your coordinator based on an accurate guest count (we'll update you regularly on your rooming list)
• All participants are coordinated and have the correct documentation and insurance.

What is our expertise going to cost you?

Our research, group coordination & consulting fee is $300 plus GST, payable once we have had an initial meeting (face-to-face or virtual) and we feel we are a good fit to work together.
