About WorldWide Travel Team

WorldWide Travel Team

Owner / Destination Wedding Specialist

I’m Shanna Fowler, co-owner of a destination wedding travel agency I founded with my husband in 2009. With over 15 years of experience, I’ve helped hundreds of couples plan stress-free weddings in breathtaking locations. I split my time living between St. Louis and Costa Rica, and I specialize in guiding couples through every step of an international wedding—from picking the perfect resort to coordinating group travel and being onsite on the big day. Backed by my expert team, we handle the details so you can focus on celebrating your love.

As a certified wedding planner and seasoned travel agent, I bring a rare all-in-one expertise to your destination celebration. I personally guide couples through resort selection, group travel logistics, and wedding day coordination with heartfelt care. Having faced the frustration of planning my own international wedding 22 years ago—only to end up with a traditional ceremony at home because the agent wasn’t listening to my vision and needs—I truly understand your dreams and challenges. My approach is deeply empathetic, ensuring your vision is honored, your journey is smooth, and your special day is nothing short of magical

In three words: Confident, Efficient, Organized

    Shanna , my wonderful (destination wedding coordinator) was extra extraordinary and left me speechless. I got married at Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres and Shanna made it so easy and stress free, so my friends , family and myself can enjoy an amazing week of fun and sunshine and an amazing destination wedding.

    Shanna was are wedding planner and travel agent for our destination wedding in Costa Rica this past month. We started our planning roughly a little less than a year ago and as first time for me planning a wedding it was intimidating even more so trying to plan it in another country. Shanna walked us through everything with ease. She was truly incredible. Any question or concern we had she had an answer or solution. She was true professional and you can tell loved what she did. She made sure our vision for our dream wedding came to fruition. We were recommended to her by our family friend who Shanna also did their wedding a year prior and I am so thankful to them. She went above and beyond for us and our guests .Shanna’s dedication to us, her clients was 10/10.

    My husband and I got married at Secrets Akumal in Riviera Maya, Mexico, in May 2025. I am being 100% honest when I say I could not have done it without Shanna and her team!! They were absolutely incredible. We had so many questions about the process, and they answered every single one with so much knowledge and experience. They helped us plan all of our travel, events of the week, day of timeline, and so much more. Shanna was on site the day of our wedding and was an immense help in making sure everything ran smoothly (and keeping my nerves at bay). I will forever be SO grateful and appreciative of Shanna and the rest of the WorldWide Travel Team.

  • We highly recommend working with Shanna

    I honestly don’t even know where to begin — we had our destination wedding at the Dreams Las Mareas resort in Costa Rica and it was absolutely amazing and truly the best time of my life! From the moment we arrived, everything felt like a dream. The setting was stunning, the weather was perfect, and every detail was beautifully thought out. Whether it was the welcome party, the breathtaking ceremony, or the nonstop fun at the reception — every moment was magical. We highly recommend working with Shanna and the Dream Vacations team — they made the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. From travel coordination to resort recommendations, they truly went above and beyond to bring everything together perfectly. If you're considering a destination wedding — DO IT. This was more than just a wedding; it was an experience we’ll be talking about forever. I wish I could relive it a thousand times over!
