Your Special Event

Shelbi & Brett :

Back in 2008, it started out as a teenage crush from afar, we were both leading separate lives but we always connected via family and friends.

Despite being at different schools until 2010 we always knew there was a spark.  The kind of feeling you get that makes you too nervous to speak or even think around a certain person.

It wasn’t until one of us was graduating, and the other completing international travel, that the stars aligned.  The spark was ignited.

From the 10th of October 2012, we became a couple, and then an engaged couple on the 28th of October 2017.

We are looking forward to continuing our adventures and making new memories.  We will finally be sealing the deal in September 2023 surrounded by our loved ones.

Lots of Love,

Brett and Shelbi

Make your destination wedding travel a breeze with Viva Destination Weddings!

While booking online can be convenient, it often comes with hidden complexities. Viva Destination Weddings offers several advantages to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for your destination wedding travel:

Transparent pricing

Unlike some online sites, we won’t surprise you with hidden fees or unexpected exchange rate fluctuations. We negotiate & lock in package pricing upfront, so the price you see is the price you pay. We take on the risk of changes to exchange rates which online sites often pass onto you.

Stress-free Booking

We handle everything from flights and transfers to pre or post wedding adventures, saving you time and effort.

Expert Guidance

Our travel specialists have extensive knowledge about the wedding venue and destination, ensuring a seamless travel experience.

Peace of Mind

If unexpected travel issues arise, we will be there to assist you, resolving any problems and minimising stress.

Simplified Communication

We communicate directly with the wedding venue on your behalf, ensuring you receive all the necessary information.

Effortless Travel Coordination

We handle all your travel documentation, including vouchers and real-time flight information, all in one convenient location. This means less paperwork for you and peace of mind knowing everything is organized and readily accessible.

Comparing to online sites such as Expedia

If you are going to book through Expedia or another site please ensure you check the inclusions, conditions and payment terms carefully as they may be different.  Please also note sites like Expedia offer “dynamic pricing” meaning the price can change as availability at the hotel and foreign exchange rates change.  Rates that are “pay later” are usually charged in local currency on arrival and therefore subject to the exchange rate at the time of your stay plus any additional bank or credit card fees for foreign currency transactions.

Viva Destination Weddings are a full service travel agency and can arrange everything including, flights transfers, additional travel pre or post the wedding and travel insurance.  In the unlikely event of issues that may occur (i.e. flight delays or cancellations etc) Viva take care of this for you.  This can save you hours of time and unwanted stress.  If you book direct or through online sites Viva unfortunately can’t assist you in this situation.  Also booking through Viva will ensure they can communicate with the hotel you are a guest of our wedding which online sites can’t do.

Where conditions and inclusions are the same Viva may be able to price match and still manage your booking and changes.  Contact them to enquire.

Quote Conditions

Prices for airline tickets can change very quickly and therefore cannot be guaranteed until paid for in full. Often we are unable to hold seats reserved without payment, so this price is a guide only, reflecting the availability at the time of quoting. Due to fluctuations in currency exchange and availability, all costs are subject to change without notice.

We are not holding any reservations for you at this stage

It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that all passengers travelling are covered by Comprehensive Travel Insurance. Please advise if you would like Travel Insurance and we will quote a policy specific to the region you are travelling to. For this we will need the dates of birth of all those travelling and if anyone has a pre-existing medical condition.
