Every Couple Works Directly with an Award-Winning Wedding Specialist

Your Dream Wedding, Expertly Planned

Canadian couples planning weddings abroad work with Lois from inquiry through post-travel follow-up, backed by a boutique agency team instead of a call centre

ST. JOHN'S, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR, CANADA, October 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- DestinationWeddings.ca, the destination wedding division of Travel Time Agency, is built around a single point of contact for every couple: Lois Barbour, CTC, DWS, the division's lead consultant and the 2026 National Winner of Baxter Media's Travel Agent & Beyond Award.

Many couples researching destination weddings start on larger booking platforms that collect their information and route it to whichever agent is available next. That often means a new contact for the consultation, another for the group contract, and a third if a change comes up later. At DestinationWeddings.ca, couples are not routed to a call centre. Lois personally manages each group's file from the first inquiry through post-travel follow-up, supported by a boutique team of specialized agents.

"Moving a wedding group of twenty or thirty people to a resort is a lot more complicated than booking a single vacation, and most of what can go wrong happens quietly, months before anyone boards a plane," said Lois Barbour. "I stay on each file myself so nothing gets lost between departments: the flights, the group contract, the final headcount. Couples shouldn't find out two weeks before their wedding that something was missed."

Lois Barbour's practice is built around the logistics Canadian couples face that many platforms often overlook. Group files are priced in Canadian dollars and, whenever possible, are booked through Air Canada Vacations, WestJet Vacations, Transat, and Sunwing. She also coordinates departure cities such as Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver, and Halifax against Canadian school calendars and statutory holidays, so guest turnout and pricing land in the right window. Every booking is processed under the Travel Industry Council of Ontario's consumer protection requirements (TICO Reg. #5003057), extending Ontario's statutory safeguards to couples booking from any province.

Her credentials extend well beyond the Baxter Media award. Lois holds the Association of Canadian Travel Agencies' Certified Travel Consultant designation (ID: XKVPE05814QEPYX84492) and the Wedding Planners Institute of Canada's Destination Wedding Specialist certification. She is a charter member and global trainer with the Destination Wedding & Honeymoon Specialists Association, and holds both Trevello Travel Group's Chairman's Circle status and Sandals Chairman's Royal Club Elite membership. In 2026 alone, she also won the CEO Award at Saint Lucia's Global Piton Awards and earned Top Producer status with the Jamaica Tourism Board.

Couples planning a wedding abroad, or still weighing whether a destination wedding fits their budget, can book a complimentary consultation directly with Lois Barbour at destinationweddings.ca.
