    Best travel agency!

    ISWD helped us tremendously with organizing our room block for wedding guests, helped us and our guests with the room booking/traveling process, and walked us through wedding planning as well! ISWD was there every step of the way and we would definitely recommend them to everyone!

She delivered on all her promises and was done with consistency and an high degree of professionalism. If you're looking for a wedding planner look no further. I highly recommend Carmela Hartman and In Style Weddings and Destinations.

    Best honeymoon!

    Carmela and I went back and forth on honeymoon destinations. When we finally agreed on Greece, she got right to work! She sent me detailed itineraries to review with no pressure to do any or all of the things suggested. We decided on Athens and Santorini and I couldn’t be happier! From the time we booked our trip, tickets, itineraries, hotels, everything was booked seamlessly. Months ahead of time, I had flight numbers and directions for travel protocols. I was so prepared, thanks to Carmela! When we touched down in Athens, transfer was waiting for us, whisked us away to the most beautiful hotel. Greeted at our room with champagne and fruit, this was off to a great start! When we departed to Santorini, again all transportation was handled effortlessly. When we arrived in Santorini and brought to our hotel, we were amazed. This surely was a hotel fit for a celebrity! Every detail was perfect! I will never Pham a trip without Carmela and her team!

    Lovely, Well Organized Trip

    Carmela had everything perfectly organized for our travel as well as optional activities to choose from during the trip. The resort was beautiful with beach and pool options. The spa was amazing and one of may favorite parts of the trip. Carmela made sure everything was perfect every step of the way and definitely took the stress of planning and organizing off our shoulders. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone so you can relax and enjoy your trip.

    Stress-free trip

    Girls group trip was stress-free! I had a wonderful time with wonderful women whom I met for the first time and some I met in previous events through ISWD. I really like that I am able to make payment plans to make my vacation affordable. Carmela is such an amazing planner and very flexible in accommodating my needs. She took care of our group while at the resort to make sure services are great. Carmela and her team did an amazing job to make my vacation stress-free! ISWD’s service to us was very personalized. They cater our individual needs. They took me to Tulum for shopping, one of my favorite part of the trip. Love the salsa room which brought me back to my dancing element. Love the spa with Carmela which was a very fun experience! Overall, I would highly recomment ISWD team for future trips for group, couples, any events, etc.!

    From the moment I received an invitation for my girlfriends birthday, I knew it was going to be amazing!

    Our whole trip was well planned with an itinerary leading up to the day. It was great to not have to worry with what’s next because everything was well planned and organized. I was very impressed with every detail and Carmela was lovely to work with.

    DREAM VACATION COME TRUE!
    Carmela was EXCELLENT! The arrangements and travel were seamless...The accommodations were out of this world!
    It was like we arrived in Heaven! The all-inclusive resort featured a personal Butler, aromatherapy service, pillow menu, including drinks by a mixologist, Top Chef Dining, Incredible views, Extreme Tours and so much more.
    We had the most spectacular time and created lifetime memories. Carmela is one of a kind who is absolutely dedicated to making her client's dreams come true! Thank you, thank you!!

    Honeymoon to Nevis Island

    Carmela planned our honeymoon to Nevis Island and we loved everything about it! I can't imagine making a trip like this without the help of Carmela--we would have been so lost and she made it effortless. Normally it would have been a little difficult for us to fully relax on a big trip like this but we honestly found ourselves able to due to Carmela's organization of all the details. The island is truly breathtaking and so are the people. We can't wait to plan another trip!

    Carmela is top echelon of wedding and travel planning. She gives unprecedented conceigere service from the heart. She organized a trip for my weathly intuitive group who all are very well traveled and we all agreed that it was the best trip and destination that we have each ever experienced. It far exceeded our expectations so much so we are already planning our next adventure with her. Her attention to all the delightful details gave us peace of mind to enjoy and be fully engaged with each other and not worried about one single travel detail. From the transportation to the selection of the resort, the restaurant selections, the world class spa the beauty of the property every morsel of this trip was delicious in mind body and soul. Thank you Instyleweddings/Carmela for absolutely everything you did for us for a memory of a lifetime.
