Travel Advisor
Paula McCormish
Planning travel since 1983, Paula has spent four decades making clients feel like family — literally. She now handles travel for the children of clients whose honeymoons she once booked. She particularly loves booking beach destinations in the Caribbean, and one of her most memorable destination weddings was for the daughter of a longtime friend — the bride was the flower girl at Paula's own wedding, and fifty guests watched the couple take their vows on a St. Croix beach at sunset. Her best cruise moment was an Alaska journey, watching the glaciers calving at dawn with her son and nephews.
