Welcome to Wanderlust Escapes Travel
I’m so glad you’ve arrived - and even more excited to help you design a journey that feels effortlessly extraordinary. Whether you’re envisioning a romantic destination wedding, a luxurious adults-only retreat, a celebration with your favorite people, or a much-needed pause from the pace of everyday life - your next chapter begins here.
At Wanderlust Escapes Travel, I specialize in curated, concierge-level planning that removes the stress and elevates the experience. This isn’t about simply booking a trip - it’s about crafting moments that are meaningful, seamless, and styled entirely around you.
The Vow Collective by Wanderlust Escapes
For couples dreaming of a destination wedding or vow renewal that’s deeply personal, effortlessly curated, and rich in intention, The Vow Collective by Wanderlust Escapes is your bespoke planning partner. From venue sourcing to travel logistics for you and your guests, every detail is handled with care - so you can celebrate your love story without compromise.
Whether you're saying "I do" for the first time or all over again, The Vow Collective delivers elevated destination celebrations infused with heart, purpose, and unforgettable beauty.
Here’s What You Can Expect
Transparent, Value-Driven Pricing
Vacation pricing can fluctuate until your deposit is secured - but rest assured, I’ll always lock in the best available rates. If a supplier offers price matching, I’ll handle the request on your behalf. You’ll never have to chase value - that’s part of the service.
A Seamless Booking Experience
Once your perfect resort, cruise, or itinerary has been selected, I’ll deliver a beautifully tailored proposal with curated options. Upon your approval, a secure invoice follows, and your reservation is confirmed once payment is processed. Please note: rates and availability remain subject to change until the booking is finalized, and accommodations may vary slightly by layout or décor.
Complimentary Planning for Individual Getaways
When you book your personal vacation with Wanderlust Escapes Travel, my planning services are entirely complimentary. I’m compensated directly by the travel supplier after you travel. In return, I ask that inquiries are made when you’re ready to move forward - so I can devote the full attention and care each journey deserves.
Personalized Planning Fees for Groups & Destination Weddings
For group escapes and destination weddings, a one-time non-refundable planning fee applies. This investment allows me to provide expert guidance, elevated support, and concierge-level coordination from our first call to your final toast. For traveling groups, the fee is applied to the lead guest’s reservation.
Concierge-Level Support, Every Step of the Way
From flights and private transfers to travel protocols and final documents, every detail is thoughtfully managed. My role is to simplify the process - so you can travel with confidence, relax completely, and savor every single moment.
Ready to Plan Something Unforgettable?
Let’s bring your vision to life - with intention, expertise, and the kind of elevated service that makes your journey feel as luxurious as the destination itself.

Elevated Destination Celebrations with Heart & Intention
Where Luxury Meets Meaning, and Every Journey Becomes a Story Worth Telling
Imagine waking to the soft hush of waves outside your suite. The air is warm with promise, and your only responsibility is to indulge in the moment - whether it’s a candlelit dinner by the sea, a sail through turquoise waters, or a long-overdue laugh with your favorite people under a Caribbean sun.
That’s the heart of what I do at Wanderlust Escapes Travel: design immersive, soul-stirring escapes where every detail is considered, and every experience reflects the way you want to feel.
This is not transactional travel. This is intentional travel, crafted to elevate the way you explore, connect, and celebrate.
Signature Experiences
Whether you’re reconnecting with your partner, celebrating a milestone, or simply escaping the noise, I curate escapes that are rooted in ease and elevated with intention:
Curated Group Getaways
Sip, celebrate, and stay present while I handle the details behind the scenes. These stress-free, joy-filled escapes are tailor-made for connection and community.
Private Resort Retreats
Indulge in handpicked, adults-only or luxury family resorts that match your exact vibe—romantic, lively, restorative, or all of the above.
Luxury Ocean & River Cruises
Unpack once and explore the world - whether you're gliding through the Danube or dancing under the stars on a private terrace in the Caribbean.
Solo & Couple Escapes
These personalized journeys are designed for discovery - of the world, your partner, or yourself.

Each journey I plan is deeply personal - and so are the words my clients share after returning home. Here’s what a few of them had to say about their Wanderlust Escapes experience.
"This trip was planned at the last minute so I really appreciated her efforts in putting a package together that worked within our budget and interest. I’m not tech savvy and found her guidance and instructions easy to follow. I would definitely recommend and would use her again!" - Kim A.
"The Trip was FABULOUS! Women's Retreat as a Culmination for '2024 Women's Wellness Activities! It's the AGENT for ME!! Organized, Professional, Informative and Flexible! ... and of course, Jamaica Embraced Us All!" - Nyiema C.
"The BEST way to enter into my 30’s!
Big shoutout to Wanderlust Escapes Travel for helping me bring in 30 in Aruba. From beginning to end and everything in between, Kareena made sure I didn’t have to worry about anything but enjoying my birthday. Even when life started life’s, she had every detail of the trip together to help give me a peace of mind. While on the trip, she was just a text/facetime away to answer any questions and help clarify things. 10/10 Highly recommend! Thank you again!" - Jazmine W.
"My experience was absolutely phenomenal!!! We were able to relax and enjoy some much needed time on this beautiful resort. Kareena made sure we had everything we needed! She was also able to complete everything I needed while maintaining the element of surprise for my boyfriend (it was his surprise birthday trip). I am extremely appreciative of her attention to detail, fast responses, and creative ideas/additions. I will be booking through Kareena at Wanderlust Escapes again!!!" - Paige C.
Kareena was amazing. My friends and I were discussing a few places that we wanted to go but did not know where to start. Kareena asked us what vibe we were going for, and we gave her some nonnegotiable things for the resort. We wanted an all inclusive, adults only resort. We shared our budget and came through. Within 24 hours, she provided us with a few options, and we immediately booked. She handled insurance, flights, and excursions. She also had an app that had all of our trip information and uploaded all documents that we needed for the trip. everything was smooth and organized for us. Kareena was even available during the trip to handle anything that we needed. We are already discussing our next trip. - Najah S.
"Kareena is fantastic! She is warm and authentically invested in the entire process. I am a novice traveler so I appreciate all of her patience and willingness to help me understand the beautiful travel experience. She answers all of my questions and works to get me the best deal according to my budget. My husband and I just returned for our first cruise and because of Kareena it was the best experience EVER! " - Mary W.
"Trip was jammed back with all day activities. Next time I will go at a slower more casual pace. Overall great trip with a great travel consultant. She was thorough and we had our transportation arranged so we didn't have to worry about getting around. Will definitely be using Wanderlust Travels again as my hubs and I travel quite a bit and we love going places that the average person doesn't think about. Again, great travel consultant that gave us what we asked for and more." - Renee H.
"Let me tell y’all about this Diva! A few months ago during one of our monthly dinner dates that we’ve had for YEARS…I told her how my daughter (Soror) wanted to do something special but something that caters to me for my bday because the pandemic robbed me of that luxury. Wanderlust Escapes took heed to my request and went above and beyond our expectations. The amount of time, care, forward thinking and professionalism that was put into our travels has far exceeded any vacation I’ve been on thus far. If you haven’t already…book with Kareena and her company TODAY. Thank you Soror/Diva…let’s get to planning my next adventure." - Kim A.
