KARA & HARLAN, THE TRAVEL SIBLINGS®

About The Travel Siblings Kara BeBell and Harlan DeBell, The Travel Siblings, have over 20 years of experience planning customized honeymoons, destination weddings, and dream vacations. Both Travel + Leisure and Condé Nast Traveler have named them as best specialists in honeymoons and destination weddings for more than a decade. The Travel Siblings are the official travel concierge for The Registry at Bloomingdale’s, arranging romance travel for newly engaged couples nationwide. These real-life siblings travel the world for the hottest hotels and up-and-coming destinations. They are known for arranging some of the most phenomenal experiences for their clients, such as underwater weddings, truffle hunting honeymoons, spectacular safaris, and so much more. The Travel Siblings is an affiliate of Global Travel Collection, members of Virtuoso, based in New York City. Their travel tips have appeared across the world’s leading multimedia platforms, including the NY Times- Style, Fortune, The Points Guy, The Travel Channel, Town & Country, Bloomberg, New York Magazine, Afar, Brides, The Knot, and now, WedLuxe.

ot too long ago, destination weddings were considered an exotic feat to plan where couples would forgo their destination travel dreams for a convenient ballroom near home. Now, booking a plane seat for a ballgown or inviting your guests atop a mountain or aboard a yacht to hear you say, “I do!” is not uncommon. As romance travel experts, we help thousands of newly engaged couples find the perfect destination for a wedding, honeymoon, or bachelor/bachelorette experience.

Until now, there has not been an inclusive destination resource that combines travel inspiration and experiences for your wedding party. We are thrilled to be a part of WedLuxe Experiences by sharing real travel experiences you can dream of and book in one place. Like a marriage connecting two people, these pages will pair travel and romance to deliver experiences around the globe. If you want to create an exclusive event but need inspiration, begin here. Perhaps the thrill of Italy’s Motor Valley is calling your bachelor party (see Pagani & Pasta on page 158), for a few days of test-driving ultimate dream cars and indulging in wine and Parmigiano tastings. Or maybe you have always dreamt of having your very own private island for the destination wedding of a lifetime? ( See Private Paradise on page 120 .) With WedLuxe Experiences, it is all possible. We have done the work by curating global experiences that highlight romance. Amid honeymoon or wedding planning chaos, all you will need to do is read on and find the trip that will have you saying, “This is it. Our story begins here.” And when your partner asks how you planned the most meaningful honeymoon, memorable wedding, or tear-inducing engagement, you will have WedLuxe Experiences in your back pocket. Just leave room for a ring box.

NO, NOT A TYPO. KARA GOES BY BEBELL, AND HARLAN BY DEBELL. (IT’S A LONG STORY...)

xoxo,
