Z10 out of 10 would recommend!Jessica Walker2025-04-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I first used Bliss Honeymoons to plan our honeymoon after COVID. We had such a positive experience that we reached out again when we decided that we wanted to take a vacation just the two of us. Cally was our agent the first time around and was so helpful and professional that we requested to use her again for our vacation. She worked patiently with us every step of the way, ranging from where we wanted to go, to which hotels/resorts would best meet our needs, to booking our flights and arranging all our transportation. Our vacation was fantastic and it was an extra luxury not having to worry about coordinating anything. 10/10 would recommend Cally and Bliss Honeymoons. I'm positive we will use them again for any future getaways.Kristen Shortell2025-04-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cally was incredible throughout the entire process of organizing and experiencing our honeymoon. My wife and I can't recommend her more as she considered every single important aspect we were looking for in our once in a lifetime trip. You will not be disappointed with Cally or Bliss HoneymoonsAsa Adams2025-04-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. INCREDIBLE, PHENOMENAL, EXCELLENT!!

My husband and I used Kelly, from bliss to plan our honeymoon in Greece. Kelly was attentive, personable, and detail oriented. She knew so much about European travel and even re worked our itinerary several times until it was perfect (thank you Kelly!). Every. Single. Detail. Was planned for us. We had private drivers that picked us up from each transport. Our hotels were EXCELLENT. She worked her magic to get us amenities that you wouldn’t get just from booking on your own (free champagne, fruit in the room, bottles of wine, etc.) she also left us little notes in each hotel room to let us know she was there for support every step of the way if we needed it. She is incredible and we definitely will book with her again in the future.Kaitlin Poyssick2024-12-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrea was amazing! She really helped us put our honeymoon together! And she helped plan a visit to Chichén Itzá for my whole family. Highly recommend Bliss Honeymoons for your next vacations! Thank you Andrea!Bao Yakel2024-11-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our honeymoon trip to Couples Swept Away was amazing! Cally made planning this trip incredibly easy; she gave us a diverse list of options to choose from and worked with us in finding the right destination for our budget. She was always quick to reply when we had questions or ideas, and gave us helpful tips for our trip.Camdon Murphy2024-11-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kelly was wonderful to work with in planning our trip to Italy. She was patient in guiding us and so pleasant to work with. We’d never been to Europe before and the trip and itinerary she created was just what we were looking for. We will be using Kelly and Bliss Honeymoons for future travel!Gina Benson2024-11-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Cally at Bliss Honeymoons! From start to finish, she helped make our honeymoon to Mexico absolutely perfect. Cally listened to our preferences and presented us with a comprehensive presentation that listed several different resort options for a honeymoon. It was so nice to not have to spend hours of my own (in the midst of wedding planning) researching and comparing resorts. It also gave us peace of mind to have had a professional vet these options beforehand. The resort options Cally presented us with were tailored to our style, ensuring we had a mix of relaxation, adventure, and luxury. She recommended the most beautiful resort and organized all the details, down to coordinating our private transportation from the airport. We also had beautiful roses waiting for us in our room at check-in that Cally had coordinated with the resort!Sarah Burke2024-11-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I got married on 9.29.24 and we had wanted to honeymoon in St. Lucia. I was trying to plan it on my own and realized how overwhelming it was while trying to plan our wedding as well. I’m SO thankful I reached out to Bliss to help with this! Kelly provided two different trip options, keeping our budget in mind which I was super grateful for! All we had to do was read over the itinerary and say yes lol. She also kept us updated leading up to our departure, sent us everything we needed to know/do before leaving, and obviously had all of our travel and everything arranged for us. She also took time to call us the week before we left to go over everything one last time and answer any questions we had. It was my first time out of the country so this made me feel so less anxious! We had the most incredible time in St. Lucia and everything was seamless! From the bottle of champagne awaiting our arrival to the final sad goodbye—it was so perfect and my husband and I will never forget it! THANK YOU Kelly, for a trip that we will cherish forever💜tess barger2024-11-09
