My wife and I decided to get married on a cruise, which was an amazing experience. Many of our family members wanted to join us for the wedding. Instead of trying to coordinate all of the travel, we contacted a travel agent. She could work with each of our family members and set up rooms, flights, and baggage. Many people started in Wisconsin, but others began in Arizona, Minnesota, and California. Having the travel agent smoothed out the process and made it much easier to have our wedding. It went off without any issues and we didn't have to plan out all of the details. Since our wedding, we have taken four other cruises and used a travel agent for all but one. In the one to Norway, even though it was an awesome trip, details were taken for granted when we used our travel agent. The one that sticks out the most is around our passports; their names didn't match our flights, and it cost $600 to make the change. However, it would have eliminated this cost if we used a travel agent. It just goes to show that having someone in your corner is helpful.
