How It Works

Plan your perfect trip in 4 easy steps.

Dream It

Start with a little wanderlust. Explore stunning destinations and handpicked hotels chosen for their wow-factor and romance. From snowy peaks to sandy shores, we’ll help you find the getaway that feels perfectly, unmistakably you.

Build It

Tell us what you’re envisioning - where you want to go, when, and how you like to travel. Fill out our quick trip form and we’ll start curating ideas that actually fit your vibe, your budget, and your kind of magic.

Perfect It

You’ll review your custom travel package, make any tweaks, and approve the details. Then your dedicated HCTG Travel Bestie will fine-tune everything; securing every flight, stay, and special touch so you don’t have to lift a finger.

Book It

Once your plans are set, your travel bestie locks it all in. You? Just grab your partner, zip up your suitcase, and get ready for the trip you’ll be talking about for years. (Champagne at the airport optional, but encouraged.)

HONEST LOVE NOTES
from our happy travelers

  • She got all of our reservations linked up so it was easy to meet up and communicate with each other. She also gave us group vacationing tips which was super helpful. I will definitely book with her again!

    — Barton B.
  • Our travel bestie understood the assignment : ) She even helped me make sure I got my hotel points with BonVoy. I was able to get a better deal through her than anyone else. I'll definitely be using her again!

    — Jennie R.
  • This booking process was so easy. It took another 'to-do' right off our plates. I definitely know who to go to for my next vacation! :) 

    — Natalie C.
  • Seamless! Easy! Simple! I can't wait to have y'all book my next trip!

    — Stetson T.
  • When we planned to get married with family and friends on a cruise, I was a bit overwhelmed! Our advisor was instrumental in getting the best cruise line experience for our group. Everyone was so happy with the attention to detail and follow through. She made it seamless and our wedding and vacay was unbelievably good! I highly recommend!

    — Michele C.
  • Booking this trip was awesome from start to finish. Our travel "bestie," was always there to answer any questions. No matter how many times I reached out, she stayed kind, patient, and super helpful. The detailed itinerary she put together made everything so much easier and took so much stress off our shoulders. Her thoughtfulness and genuine care really made the whole experience better.

    — Wade B.

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ve got questions? We’ve got travel-sized answers.

What’s the benefit of using a travel bestie rather than DIY-ing it?

Because you get the same, or better, pricing than the big travel sites *plus* perks they can’t offer. Booking through us bumps your reservation to the top of the list for upgrades, early check-ins, late checkouts, and bonus amenities. You skip the research, the second-guessing, and the hold music. We handle the details, you enjoy the benefits, and your price stays the same. It’s an effortless upgrade to your entire trip.

What makes you different from other travel sites?

We’re not a booking engine or an algorithm - we’re the gals with decades of wedding and travel know-how. Every destination, hotel, and travel partner we feature is personally vetted for quality, service, and that “this is so us” feeling.

Who are the “Travel Besties”?

They’re the same trusted gals behind Here Comes The Guide, the ones who’ve spent decades helping couples plan their dream weddings, now putting that same magic into unforgettable getaways. They know the destinations, the hidden gems, and the insider perks- and they’ll make sure your trip runs smoother than your favorite champagne pour.

How much does it cost to use Here Comes the Getaway?

Nothing! It’s completely free to use Here Comes the Getaway. You’ll get a personalized itinerary, destination research, and full support from your Travel Bestie- without paying a dime. Planning something extra custom, like a multi-stop or extended adventure? No worries. We’ll always be upfront about any special costs before you commit. Transparency is kind of our thing.

Do you only work with couples?

NO! We love planning group celebrations, bestie trips, and family getaways, too. If there’s love (or laughter) involved, we’re in.

What happens after we fill out the trip form?

Your very own HCTG Travel Bestie will reach out shortly to chat with you about your style and preferences, then start curating a trip that matches your vibe, budget, and schedule- no stress, just seriously good planning.

Can we plan a last-minute trip?

Yes! Some of our favorite adventures come together in just a few weeks. We’ll handle the details so you can just pack and go.

Can we cancel or change our plans?

Our travel pros will always review cancellation policies and change options with you before you book. No surprises, ever.
