Working with Amy was one of the most affirming parts of our wedding journey. From the start, she understood our vision and managed our guests' arrangements with exceptional care.
...
We quickly realized we could trust Amy. She initially suggested AVA Resort, even before it was built. Although we initially chose another resort in Costa Rica, a site visit revealed it didn't align with our vision. Amy helped us exit that contract with minimal repercussions and encouraged us to consider AVA again.
When AVA had its soft opening that July, Amy arranged a visit for Tristan, my mom, and me. Even with ongoing construction, we instantly knew Amy was right; it felt aligned with our vision and perfect for our guests.
Amy's guidance and steady presence made the entire process stress-free, and our wedding day exceeded our expectations. We are incredibly grateful for her intuition and support, and we highly recommend her to any couple seeking someone they can truly trust.
Thanks to Amy, we lived our dream wedding.

And even got us extras like breakfast and others included! Easy to work with and very attentive. 10/10 would recommend for your next trip!

Amy and Aventina Romance Travel are absolutely incredible! We had the trip of a lifetime, and there’s no way we could have pulled off a honeymoon right after our wedding without th...
eir help. With all the wedding planning stress, we simply didn’t have the time or bandwidth to plan a major trip. A friend recommended Amy, and from our very first conversation, we knew we were in great hands.
She took the time to understand how we like to travel and what we were hoping for, then created two thoughtful itineraries in completely different destinations. She patiently walked us through the pros and cons of each, and we ultimately chose a Maldives honeymoon with a 4-day stop in Dubai on the way. Dubai hadn’t even been on our radar, but it turned out to be an unforgettable part of the trip. Every day was perfectly planned, our guides were amazing, and we learned so much. Dinner in the Dubai desert was a true pinch-me moment.
By the time we arrived in the Maldives, we were ready to fully relax—and the resort Amy picked for us was beyond anything we could have imagined. It was luxurious, peaceful, exotic. We had imposter syndrome the whole week in the best way possible. Amy checked in throughout the trip to make sure everything was going smoothly, and we genuinely felt cared for the entire time.
We saved so much time, stress, and even money by working with a travel professional, and the value we received was exceptional. We will absolutely be using Amy for all future vacations. A huge thank you for giving us the honeymoon of our dreams!

Amy at Aventina Romance Travel & Events was an invaluable resource throughout our entire wedding planning process. She patiently walked us through different wedding resort options,...
outlining the pros and cons of each. Amy has visited all these resorts, and worked with numerous couples, and her expert opinion was critical to our final decision since we picked a resort site unseen. She then continued to be a huge support system throughout the process, helping us plan a site visit, giving us insider knowledge about working with the resort's wedding department, helping our guests plan all their travel, and recommending a tour guide to do an excursion to local sites. She dealt with last minute updates and changes flawlessly, and always tried to accommodate our guests travel requests. Throughout it, she was always kind, supportive, and truly excited for us. We 100% recommend any couple planning a destination wedding to work with Amy at Aventina Romance Travel & Events.

Let me start off by saying-WE HAD THE BEST HONEYMOON EVER EVER EVER! And that whatever you're planning, you need to bring Amy in! Because for us, this was the trip of a lifetime an...
d she made it happen.
There was romance, adventure, relaxation, and most of all connection! Of course, the ever-so-talented Amy was responsible for 99.9999% of our plans. We came to her perplexed, running out of time to get to Oceania in the summer, with a vision that could not be pulled off without years of planning expertise and a penchant for networking. It is evident to us why Amy gets all of these rave reviews she does. And why we're raving about her on here, too!
At the beginning of January, I reached out to Amy asking her for help booking our 2-week honeymoon to New Zealand and Fiji. We connected the same day and she reached out over the phone, and then had us fill out a form with our vision. The target was a late March-early April trip, just in time to catch good weather in both countries. Over 2-3 months, Amy worked tirelessly to cover off on every little detail.
As the sample itineraries came in, she listened intently to our concerns and preferences, helped us scenario plan ("Travel north? Or south?") And gave her professional opinion as a travel agent without being pushy. She also hooked us up with someone at Down Under Answers who was more knowledgeable than she was about New Zealand adventures to help us experience the most we could out there. We traveled from Montclair, New Jersey to Queenstown to Rotorua to Auckland to Fiji. It was virtually seamless but only because we worked with such a talented and caring travel agent who helped us plan realistic, vacation-appropriate timelines.
The icing on the already incredible cake was when we received a welcome champagne bottle the first night in our first hotel with restaurant recommendations and a Happy Honeymoon note~
My husband and I will be most certainly be working with Amy again for our next trip to really get the most out of it! We hope you do too!

We met with Amy having already reserved our wedding date with Hard Rock PC and she was able to step right in & help seamlessly. Amy & Tim made sure everything on the logistical side was taken care of and eased our stress of planning a wedding in one location while living in another. She was so knowledgeable about Hard Rock PC and had wonderful suggestions and recommendations that we took into account when making decisions regarding the wedding itself.
We would absolutely recommend her & Tim to anyone planning a vacation/wedding/honeymoon!

It was the first time we had ever used a travel agent and Amy exceed all of our expectations!

She helped us plan relaxing days on the beach and busy days site-seeing with tour guides.
Throughout the planning and the trip, Amy was reliably in contact with us. She never took more than a few hours to reply to an email and was always available to talk on the phone. She even helped me secretly plan a romantic dinner that my wife wasn't aware of.

Amy is amazing! My husband and I worked with Amy to plan our destination wedding in Mexico, and we could not have done it without her. When we decided to go to Mexico to see some p...
laces in person, Amy helped us narrow down which places to see, made the appointments, and scheduled our transfers to and from every resort. She checked in with us after each day of resort visits to see how everything went and have a better understanding of the type of resort we liked. We ended up visiting about seven resorts, and I highly recommend it. Amy told us how places can look different in person, and it's so true! When we chose our resort, Amy was instrumental in reserving the room block and negotiating with the resort to get us lower room rates. Choosing room types and how many days to reserve for each room can be very complicated but Amy takes the time to explain it to you. Amy makes it super simple for your friends and family to book their rooms. She also has some seriously good connections. For example, she recommended our photographer, who was not affiliated with the resort, and we are so glad she did. As it got closer to our wedding, my husband and I had some difficulty communicating with the resort. Amy stepped in, really advocated for us, and ensured that the rest of the planning ran smoothly. When we got to the resort a few days before our wedding, Amy also happened to be in Mexico. She took the time to meet us at our resort and sit in on our meeting with our resort-assigned wedding coordinator. She asked important questions that we didn't think to ask, and made sure we were getting everything we wanted. Throughout the entire planning process she was incredibly responsive and spoke with us on the phone even late at night if we were too busy during the day. I seriously don't know when she sleeps! Planning a wedding is stressful no matter how you do it, but I am so glad we had Amy to discuss venues, advise us, and advocate for us. It truly makes all the difference. Amy is also helping us plan our two-week honeymoon in Italy, and she has made the process very enjoyable. She is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain all of our options to us. I highly recommend her!

Amy Vecchione of Aventina Travel and Events is beyond fantastic. She is friendly, calm, competent, and works to make sure your events meet the bride’s (and groom) vision. She takes...
a concept and works with it until it is perfect. We hired Amy to be our wedding planner/travel consultant for our wedding at The Hard Rock Punta Cana (DR) on September 29, 2018. There were so many different parts going into planning our (absolutely AMAZING) destination wedding, that I could not imagine getting it all done with Amy. Amy helped us secure our room block at the hotel and rooms for our guests. She did all our travel arrangements and was a phone call away for our guests with any questions/concerns about the events and the travel going into our wedding. She went above and beyond for us and we are so appreciative of her. We received a room upgrade upon arrival, all our guests’ arrivals went smoothly, and any accommodations were taken care of. This process was stress free and I was able to enjoy every minute of my wedding and honeymoon week all because of Amy’s hard work and dedication to making my visions come true. Amy was phenomenal and there is no better person to have by your side during this special time!

Amy Vecchione of Aventina RomanceTravel and Events is in a class by herself. She has lifted wedding planning into a new professional level. She is level headed, calm, competent, ...
and works to make sure the event meets the bride and groom’s vision. She takes a concept and works with it until it is perfect.
We hired Amy to be the wedding planner for my daughter’s wedding. There were a lot of moving parts to the wedding. My daughter had just moved to California but the wedding was in the Hudson Valley in New York State. The rehearsal dinner was a big hoe down sponsored by my daughter’s future in-laws and the brunch after the wedding was being hosted by friend of the groom’s family from California. So there were a lot of different events as well as personalities involved. In addition, the space where the wedding was going to take place had “good bones” but needed to be made beautiful but in keeping with the rustic setting and my daughter’s desire not to have a sterile “New York City” hotel wedding. Amy coordinated all the moving parts of the three events flawlessly. The wedding space was transformed into a beautiful space with a rustic, informal, fun atmosphere which was what my daughter wanted. She kept all the different people involved happy and calm. All the services for the wedding came within budget. I would obviously highly recommend Amy Vecchione of Aventina RomanceTravel and Events.

My husband and I got married on a tiny island in Belize, and we wouldn't have found it if not for Amy. She listened to what we were looking for (a small, non-traditional wedding in...
a natural environment), found the absolute ideal place for us, helped us get our friends and families there, and had lots of great advice and ideas about how to make our destination wedding perfect. It was wonderful! She's an expert, hands-down.

Let's just say that without Amy my wedding would have not been a success. We tied the knot in Riviera Maya Mexico in August 2015. She helped us with securing the hotel and rooms fo...
r my guests and myself, planning of the ceremony and reception, and all of the travel arrangements. She went above and beyond for us. We were able to get special accommodations, upgrades on rooms, and even my special dietary needs were met. The only thing I would do different is have her their with us for the day of. It would have made things run smoother. I had such minimal stress and was really able to enjoy the vacation part of our trip. Everyone was so happy. You will not regret having Amy at your side.
