Your Personal Destination Wedding Planner
Hi, I’m Shannon Vega! Owner of Your Big Day Away! I’m an award-winning travel advisor, certified destination wedding specialist, and—most importantly—I was a destination wedding bride myself. Which means I’ve been in your shoes (or sandals, if you’re tying the knot on the beach!). So I know what it’s like to start dreaming of saying “I do” in a picture-perfect paradise, surrounded by smiling (and teary-eyed) friends and family. And—I know what it’s like being left to figure out alllll the logistics that lead up to your big day all by yourself.
That’s where I come in. I’m here to make your beach-y wedding dreams come true—for you and your guests. Because here’s the secret I learned planning my own destination wedding—it’s not just “our day.” It’s everyone’s day. I was thrilled to walk down that white sand aisle, yes. But I was just as thrilled to spend the entire weekend surrounded by the friends and family we loved.
That’s why, when I work with my own destination wedding clients, their guests’ experience becomes my TOP priority. I’ll make sure that when you get hitched, it goes off without a hitch. And that you and your loved ones have the absolute time of your lives after the ceremony. Because this isn’t just a wedding—it’s a sun-kissed, love-fueled, seaside c-e-l-e-b-r-a-t-i-o-n.
So get ready to party, together! I’ll make it happen with ease.
