barely wed travel

welcome.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been the go-to person in my circle for planning trips - crafting itineraries, researching the hidden gems, and stitching together journeys that feel personal and effortless. When I proposed to my now wife in the storybook village of Èze, France during a European adventure, it only confirmed what I already knew: there’s something magical about celebrating love through travel.

That trip planted the seed for what would become Barely Wed Travel. The name? It’s a playful nod to that special window of time - just before, during, and after a wedding - when everything is full of excitement, emotion, and new beginnings. But more than that, it's about marking those milestones with experiences that reflect who you are as a couple.

Whether its the first step in your journey, the big day itself, or the great escape after the chaos - I'll be more than happy to help you make memories which will last a lifetime.

I look forward to meeting you soon!

what makes barely wed travel different?

true concierge level service.

We believe whether its your first married adventure together or that tenth anniversary wedding trip - it should all be effortless, unforgettable, and perfectly tailored to you. From laid-back itineraries planned months - or even years - in advance, to dinner reservations or nightly bar recommendations, we offer full concierge-level service for every couple. Whether you dream of a tranquil beach escape, a cultural city break, or a little of both, we handle every detail so you don’t have to. Want the best table at that hidden gem of a restaurant? Or a quiet rooftop bar with sunset views? Consider it done. Our expert planning ensures your trip flows smoothly from start to finish, leaving you free to simply enjoy each other.

personal and proud.

Every trip is personal - because so is your story. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all packages. Instead, we take the time to get to know you, your tastes, and your travel dreams. Whether you're craving total relaxation, adventure, or a mix of both, your romantic trip will be uniquely yours, designed with care and complete attention to detail. We’re proud to offer a truly bespoke service - no generic itineraries, no call centres - just one dedicated expert guiding you from first ideas to final flight home. It’s this personal touch, and genuine pride in what we do, that sets us apart. Your trip is more than a holiday - it’s something extraordinary. And we’re honoured to be part of it.

a network of experience and history.

With Barely Wed Travel, you're not just booking a trip - you’re tapping into a trusted network built on years of experience. Through our affiliation with the JLT Group, we have access to a world-class portfolio of expert suppliers, from luxurious five-star hotels to charming villas and stylish apartments. Whether you're dreaming of a boutique retreat in the hills of Tuscany or a beachfront villa in the Maldives, we know exactly who to call. Our long-standing relationships mean priority access, exclusive perks, and handpicked recommendations you won’t find in a brochure. It’s this rich history and deep industry knowledge that allow us to create seamless, high-quality experiences - every time. With us, your honeymoon benefits from the very best in the business.

full holiday protection.

Your peace of mind is our priority. That’s why all our holidays are fully protected through trusted industry bodies. PTS (Protected Trust Services) - your payments are held in a secure trust account, meaning your money is 100% protected until you travel. ATOL (Air Travel Organiser’s Licence) - if your honeymoon includes flights and is booked as a package, it’s covered under the ATOL scheme - ensuring you're financially protected if a supplier fails or your trip is disrupted. IATA (International Air Transport Association) - as an IATA-accredited agency, we meet strict professional standards and have direct access to airline ticketing, offering both security and flexibility.

exclusive access to trade only deals and relationships.

We offer more than just a booking service - we provide exclusive access to a curated network of suppliers and insider deals that you won’t find online. Booking directly through online platforms often limits you to standard rates and promotions. In contrast, our industry partnerships enable us to negotiate better value and personalised benefits.
