Or party-worthy? To help you decide, my trusted travel agent bestie Sarah from @Time4Travel is weighing in with her expert advice, and I'm sharing my own take on why this move might actually be a huge win for DESTIbrides.  To help you decide, my trusted travel agent bestie Sarah from @Time4Travel is weighing in with her expert advice, and I'm sharing my own take on why this move might actually be a huge win for DESTIbrides. 🎙️ Let's talk stability, streamlined planning, and brand-new destination possibilities beyond the usual hotspots.

Listen along with me in the BlackDesti director's commentary cut of one of my most favoritest interviews! I've noticed a recent uptick in bridal party drama and I've got exactly what you all need, so let's have some fun this week.   Professional Bridesmaid and Author, Jen Glantz, shared her experience and best advice as a professional Bridesmaid with us over 5 years ago and I STILL refer new Bridefriends back to listen to her tips! Anyone involved in a destination wedding (couples AND bridal party members) can and will get something wonderful from this episode - especially since I'm adding my own 2 cents as we listen along together!    And if you're like me and thought not having an official bridal party will save you from all drama…go ahead and hit play too Bridefriend + thank me later ;)   Enjoy!   ❤️All details + links are waiting for you in the show notes in DESTILAND @ http://www.desti.land/50    Thanks for listening!   📺Wanna watch?
