We believe that the honeymoon is as important as the wedding day. This is a special time for you to unwind from the wedding plans, preparation and the big event, by getting away to enjoy yourselves, and make beautiful memories as you start your journey together as husband and wife.
Ocean Breeze Cruise & Travel's mission statement is to serve each and every client with the utmost respect, to build long and lasting relationships while providing excellent customer service.
Each and every one of our staff is committed to making our honeymooners vacation a wonderful experience and we take our roles in your planning very seriously. Let us know what your dream vacation is, leave it to us and we will do our best to make it happen.
We are very excited to announce our "Dream Honeymoon Registry". Similar to department stores our program allows your friends and family to give you a gift towards your "Dream Honeymoon". We will have inserts for you to place in your invitations and then leave the rest to us. Ask us for more details.
We look forward to working with you,
Ocean Breeze Cruise & Travel
1) Your idea of the "perfect" wedding can be described as:
a) A traditional ceremony in your house of worship followed by a banquet hall shindig.
b) Barefoot on the beach followed by a tiki-torch-lined BBQ.
c) A beautiful location surrounded by loved ones
2) How many guests do you envision attending your ceremony?
a) 250++.....your parent's friends and even the dog groomer will make your invite list.
b) 50 - 150.....loved ones and liked ones
c) 2 - 50......your near and dear ones
3) Think about your invite list. Where do your guests live?
a) Everyone lives in your hometown.
b)Your fiance's family is from the U.K and Argentina, and your ex-college roommates live across the
globe. Guests are going to travel no matter where your wedding is.
c) Guests are scattered across the country, but you still have a decent hometown contingent
4) How will you react if some close family and friends cannot attend your wedding?
a) Burst into tears, get really offended and renounce them as friends.
b) Offer to help subsidize the cost for those who can't afford it.
c) You will understand, but feel slightly disappointed.
5) How comfortable are you getting married at a place you've never seen before?
a) Comfortable? You'll freak out if you cannot visit the venue at least five times in advance.
b) Photos and review are enough to ease your mind-it's the beach after all.
c) You're not thrilled, but with the help of a travel consultant, you'll trust that other brides have done it
in the past.
6) You've dreamed about having rare Pigeon Orchids in your bouquet and serving your
favourite Pinot Noir with dinner only to find out that the resort cannot accommodate
either request. How do you react.
a) Cancel your destination wedding altogether because you must, must, must have every detail
(which you've dreamed up since birth) become a reality at your wedding.
b) Compromise and choose a different flower and wine.
c) Throw a mini temper tantrum. Then once you've calmed down, you consider a compromise.
7) Are you able to relinquish some control when it comes to wedding planning?
a) No way! You're actually comfortable identifying yourself as a bridezilla.
b) Absolutely. You trust the professionals and know that a destination wedding is not the same as a
hometown gig.
c) Somewhat. You're still a bit of a control freak, but know that a destination wedding will require
some form of compromise on your part.
Are you a destination bride?
If you answered:
Mostly "A"s: Destination Nowhere: Although the destination wedding may seem like a great idea in theory, you're probably best suited to having a hometown wedding by choosing a unique venue. Remember that a destination wedding requires the ability to relinquish some control of the details....stick to your true style.
Mostly "B"s: Destination Queen: Pack your bags, slip on your cute island flip-flops and get excited for what will be your ideal wedding. You're the perfect type of person for a Destination Wedding.
Mostly "C"s: Destination Possibility: You're not 100% sure if this is your wedding style but you are definitely considering it. You love the concept but perhaps you need to speak to a professional.

Planning a wedding can be stressful, however my destination wedding was everything I could have dreamed of without the stress. Janice found us a great deal at the resort we wanted to stay at plus helped organize not only my guests from Vancouver but also our family flying to meet us from Ontario. Not having to deal with all the travel arrangements by ourselves certainly made our lives easier.
I cannot say enough good things regarding going away for our wedding. Not only does the resort handle everything for you but you end up with a wonderful vacation with friends and family and plenty of cherished memories.
Thanks Janice, for helping us make a perfect wedding day.

When our long-time travel agent retired in 2007, my fiance and I began our search for a replacement to help us plan our dream destination wedding. Several referrals led us to several agents who promised much but delivered little. Phone calls and e-mails went unanswered and the information we did receive was no more detailed than what we had already researched ourselves. We were frustrated and disappointed and were considering booking online. Then we met Janice Lonnqvist.
A friend suggested that we try Ocean Breezes Cruise and Travel. From our first conversation with Janice, we received absolutely first class service. She provided us with the information that we were unable to get from other agents, put us in contact with our wedding planner and coordinated travel arrangements for our group of 24. Our dream wedding became a reality thanks in large part to Janice's efforts.
We cannot recommend Janice and her team at Ocean Breezes highly enough. Destination weddings don't have to be a scary or stressful event - as long as you have the right travel agent!
Thanks for everything Janice.
Sincerely, Tony and Melinda Ward
