Meet Tammy Tkachuk
Hello!
Let me introduce myself, may name is Tammy Tkachuk and I am a travel agent with Ultimate Destination Weddings.
I thoroughly enjoy traveling and I take every opportunity I can to travel and explore! I tell all my clients that I work so I can travel more! It is just so motivating and satisfying to check out a new part of the world, experience new cultures and meet new clients! I make it my goal to try to travel outside of Canada at least two-three times a year.
I got into destination weddings because I too was once a bride in destination – the Riviera Maya in fact. I really enjoyed the whole process and it was also my first time in Mexico. I was hooked in many ways! About a year later I started looking into how I could get into the travel business so I could feed my own travel hunger and then also help others!
My favourite part of my job is helping couples plan their perfect destination wedding – and making it as fun and stress free precess as possible! Let me help you plan your own destination wedding, honeymoon or romantic getaway!

How many years have you been in travel? Any related experience you’d like to note?

Best travel tip?
Westjet (and maybe other airlines I am not aware of) will allow you to bring one bag of donation items for free – once I found that out we now take an old suitcase to filled with clothes etc to Mexico and just leave it all there – suitcase included.
