EPISODE 33

CORONAVIRUS, New CDC Regs + Your Destination Wedding!

(AKA: 🥂 DESTIHOUR REPLAY:
COVID-19 DESTINATION WEDDING Q+A (PT. 4)
W/ JACK BENOFF @ VACATIONEEZE)


HEY DESTIS + BRIDEFRIENDS!

Welp - Rona is back @ it…

…so I brought DESTIPRO , Jack Benoff @ Vacationeeze in to update and advise us on the current Coronavirus / COVID-19 destination wedding landscape!

I’m so excited to introduce you to Jack Benoff and this is the perfect way to share the magic that is Jack! I know you’ve already watched or listened to his latest interview: The Resorts Episode

…WHICH, BTW went live last week, so ummm… yeah…I’m calling you out if you haven’t yet…but anyway…

Jack knows resorts, and destination weddings, and travel, so when your panicked questions about the new CDC regulations started rolling in, I knew exactly what to do!

I reached out and was SO HAPPY that Jack agreed to jump in and share what he knows and what you need to know too! So we planned an impromptu DESTIHOUR all for you to get informed and hopefully gain some peace along your DESTIWedding planning journey!

AND HE’S ACTUALLY IN MEXICO DURING RECORDING!

I heard your cries Bridefriends…

HEY OMI - WE NEED ANSWERS!

And we’re gonna you get some tonight!

SO IT’S CORONAVIRUS CATCHUP TIME AGAIN!

The DESTILOVERS Community brought some great (and tough) questions to this call and Jack gave great (and tough) answers! You’re gonna want a glass of wine and a candle for this one Bridefriends…


COVID-19 DESTINATION WEDDING QUESTIONS + TOPICS:

💕 What exactly does the new CDC regulation mean? How long do you think this will last?

💕 What are specific resorts offering in response to the new CDC regulations?

💕 What’s the best way to manage guests’ anxiety for destination weddings this and next year? (MOST POPULAR)

💕 What if my guests cancel so much that it’s not worth having the wedding anymore?

💕 Do you think brides should still proceed with planning?

💕 When should I be making a decision on proceeding vs. canceling?

💕 Is it selfish to ask guests to pay for their COVID-19 test to return to the states? Any creative alternatives?

💕 What if guests test positive and are stranded!…what are you planning to do with your clients?

💕 Are you comfortable traveling yet? How has it been for you and when are you coming back? How is that process?

💕 Any resorts giving more flexible policies? Should I use this info to pick a resort for my wedding?

💕 Do you think the US will make it a requirement to have a Passport Vaccine? Are you planning for this?

💕and so much more!

Now… traditionally DESTIHOUR replays are only found in the DESTILOVERS archive - which you get immediate access to when you join the Community - BUT this is soooo good and sooo needed that I’m happy to share with you here this week. I couldn’t keep this one a secret because that’s not a loving act now is it? No - it isn’t…
