Any Toronto area brides? Need TA recommendation please


Recommended Posts

Hello! I've noticed in a couple of profiles that there are other women on this forum planning their DW's from Toronto just like me! I'm in the early stages of planning my DW at Las Caletas in Puerto Vallarta next year (January 09) but I have guests coming down from Toronto AND all over the States so I will definitely need a good travel agent. I also set on going the all-inclusive route too because I know my guests will all be a lot happier that way.

 

Does any have a travel agent or travel company they're working with (or have worked with in the past) that they love and that's either based out of the Toronto area?

 

Thanks!

I didn't realize that our host was a TA! There is so much information on this forum and only so many non-work hours in the day! :-)

 

I hadn't really considered using someone who wasn't local only because I'm typically a very hands on person...this whole DW planning thing is actually very scary for me, not being able to see the site, do hair trials before, etc. But I'm willing to roll with it all so that I can have the wedding my FI and I really want rather than a "technically" perfect day....and it may work out to be both!

 

I will send Tammy an email/private message tomorrow and ask her how this could work. Thank you for the information.

Wow, what happened with her to make it so terrible and hellish? I know a lot of people that used her, myself included and we all really liked her. I am very curious to know what happened to you and sorry to hear that.

The best quote I've gotten so far is from the group specialists at the Flight Centre. I haven't signed on with anyone yet though...I'm waiting to get my quote back from Pauline Blacoe before deciding. After reading this though, I'm not sure if I should work with her...?

I didn't use a TA at all just booked through selloffvacations and my hubby is from calgary and all his guestd booked through beachdestinations...i thoughtthey offered the best prices instead of going through a TA which prices were approx $200-$500 more per person so we went the online route

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
