I can not recommend Perfect Honeymoons enough. My husband and I worked with Jim to plan our honeymoon to Hawaii. Planning a honeymoon while also planning your wedding is stressful enough, but the pandemic added another layer. Jim never missed a beat.

He made himself available to us completely — with constant communication, troubleshooting, and clarity. Not to mention that he was learning about the ever changing rules & guidelines himself! He was kind, patient, and supportive, answering our endless questions while also being a wonderful source of ideas and agenda items to keep us excited about our trip.

Especially now, you cannot put a value on vendors that truly care about your well-being and want what’s best for you. Jim and Perfect Honeymoons is the epitome of a vendor that has your best interest at heart, and is more of a partner in your wedding planning process than anything. I highly recommend, and am already excited to utilize this team for our next trip.

Working with Gretchen at Perfect Honeymoons was truly a pleasure. She thought of every detail that made our honeymoon go very smoothly. She had a lot of recommendations for fun activities, and picked the best hotels for our plans. It was clear Gretchen is an expert who cares about helping us have the best vacation possible.

Steve helped us plan our dream honeymoon to Croatia and Italy. He was patient and made adjustments to the itinerary until we were 100% satisfied. We even reached out to ask questions while there and he was so responsive! 100% recommend!

For 16+ years my husband and I have had the pleasure of planning our lifetime dream vacations with Gretchen McKnight which have included our latest to French Polynesia. We have depended on Gretchen’s knowledge, experience, dedication, efficiency, and talent to help us create unforgettable memories of incredible destinations. We hold her in such high esteem, that our adult children also seek her expertise. We are already looking forward to booking an overseas trip through her for next Fall and are so excited to pull it all together into another fabulous adventure!

I've known Gretchen for several decades. When the time came to book our first-ever cruse, she was the one and only person we reached out to. We had some very specific requirements. We scheduled a call to discuss, she genuinely listened and had the answers to each of our questions and knew exactly how to accommodate our specifications. She walked us through the various options while aboard the ship as well as the various activities and excursions while abroad. She followed up several days before our departure just to make sure everything was in place (as it was). Once we returned, she checked in with us to follow up. We could not be happier. In fact, while exiting the ship, we both said, "we're totally doing this again."

My wife and I used Steve to plan our Fijian honeymoon, including booking our airfare, accommodations, transports in Fiji and a handful of excursion activities. Steve was recommended to us by friends that had used him to book their honeymoon and they provided very positive feedback. Steve was a great resource throughout the entire process. During our first conversation, we hadn't nailed down a specific destination for our honeymoon. We had multiple destinations in mind and Steve was able to help us think about the benefits and opportunities that each location offered. Upon deciding that Fiji would be our destination, we couldn't have found a better partner than Steve - he has tremendous experience through his own trips to the country as well as connections with resort managers that provide valuable insight & unique experiences.

Throughout the planning process, we described to Steve what we were hoping to experience on our trip, and he was able to weigh in with example activities to help build out our itinerary. My wife and I are not great trip planners, so relying on Steve's expertise was extremely helpful and took the burden off of us during a busy time planning our wedding. Steve was available for questions and very flexible in making changes if we wanted to do something different than suggested. Prior to the trip, Steve checked in with us to make sure we felt comfortable with our itinerary and to answer any last minute questions. He also was available during our trip for any needs.

Steve's recommendations for locations/resorts couldn't have been better. We first stayed at the Nanuku resort before moving to Liku Liku to spend the remainder of our trip. Each experience was unique and had so much to offer. Steve's recommendations of room types (which included not upselling us for more expensive rooms) were spot on for our honeymoon. Steve again checked in after our trip to make sure everything went smoothly and that we enjoyed our experience.

We are so grateful to have found Steve and to have used his services - we enjoyed every moment of our honeymoon thanks to his recommendations!

We worked with Gretchen for our honeymoon in 2014, then again in 2019 when we wanted to plan a trip to Europe. Now that our 10-year anniversary is approaching, we are working with her again to plan an anniversary cruise! Our honeymoon in St. Lucia was incredible - we went to Sandals and she made sure everything felt special for us while we were there! When we went to Europe, she took a lot of time to listen to our wants and needs, and blew us away by mapping out an absolutely flawless itinerary that ensured we did everything we wanted to do while we were there (not a small feat AT ALL)! We visited England, Belgium, and France, and I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat! We only came across one hiccup the entire time - while we were in France, the hotel had a minor mix-up with our registration. Thankfully, we were able to keep in touch with Gretchen while we were there, so when we told her about the issue, she immediately took the stress off of us by contacting the hotel and sorting things out for us (while ensuring we were out exploring/enjoying the city instead)! We recently started planning our 10-year anniversary trip, so OF COURSE we reached out to Gretchen again! As always, she helped us think about things we might not have considered otherwise, so we could make the best decision possible. After pinpointing what we were looking for, she was able to find an Alaskan cruise that we feel will be perfect for us! I have no doubt in my mind that she will help us make it incredibly special and memorable. I can't wait!!

Gretchen helped us with our honeymoon to St. Lucia in 2011, then this year, with our anniversary trip to Europe - a Rhine River cruise. We had a great time, many thanks to Gretchen! She is informative, knowledgeable, and above all friendly and personable. We love Gretchen!

Gretchen is so amazing, helpful and knowledgeable. We have used her to plan so many of our vacations. Starting with our 25th anniversary trip to Jamaica, to Hawaii for our 30th with 9 of of us, then to Mexico this summer to celebrate our 40th with an additional 13 of our children, their spouses and our grandchildren. A few other great destinations sprinkled in between. She has sent us to some awesome resorts and recommends excursions and places to explore. She always keeps us informed and returns call within a reasonable time. She demands perfection from the resorts and has worked things out to everyone’s satisfaction when some issues have arisen. She is our go to for all our big trips. Our daughters and other family members now use Gretchen for their trips and I will continue to highly recommend her to others.

This is the first time I have worked with Gretchen and perfect honeymoons. Gretchen’s professionalism and knowledge exceeded my expectations. It was the first time we have traveled to Italy. For 2 1/2 weeks we were in Rome, the Amalfi coast, and Tuscany. Gretchen made sure the hotels and transportation were specific due to the fact, my husband had knee surgery two weeks before our trip. The only thing I would do different is spend more time in Florence and Rome and less time in the Amalfi coast. We stayed in Positano for six days. If I could do it over again I would stay in Sorrento ( as this was Gretchen‘s recommendation during the planning process of our trip, but I was dead set on Positano )and take the ferry to Positano for a day or two. I am so thankful Gretchen took care of all the details that never would occur to me. One example is we arrived in Rome at 8 o’clock in the morning and check in for our hotel wasn’t until four. It never occurred to me to reserve the room for the night before so I could actually get cleaned up take a nap and start my vacation.
