Honeymoons & Custom Travel
Your Trip Should Feel Like It Was Designed Only for You.
From romantic honeymoons and milestone journeys to custom European vacations, Ted creates thoughtful itineraries built around how you actually want to travel, not a prepackaged route designed for everyone else.

The Idea
More Than a Honeymoon.
A Trip That Feels Like You.
Maybe your perfect honeymoon is ten slow days along the Amalfi Coast. Maybe it's a safari followed by the Seychelles, a private villa in Greece, or a city-to-city European journey filled with small hotels, memorable meals, and experiences you'd never find in a package brochure.
Ted plans custom honeymoons and international travel for clients who want the details handled without losing the personality of the trip. Every itinerary is designed around your travel style, priorities, pace, and budget.

Custom Honeymoon & International Travel Specialist
Ted specializes in custom honeymoons, Europe, and other personalized international travel through WorldWide Travel Team. He maintains his own travel clientele and focuses on designing personalized journeys that go far beyond a standard hotel-and-flight package.
His particular strength is Europe, where successful travel often depends on much more than choosing a hotel. Transportation timing, city combinations, pacing, neighborhoods, private experiences, and the order of the itinerary can completely change how the trip feels.
Ted helps bring those pieces together into one cohesive plan, so clients can enjoy the experience instead of spending months trying to coordinate every detail themselves.
Honeymoons and custom international travel are personally led by Ted Zinselmeier through WorldWide Travel Team. Destination-wedding groups remain personally led by Shanna Fowler through WorldWide Destination Weddings. WorldWide Destination Weddings is a niche division of WorldWide Travel Team.

Europe Is Not One Trip.
It's Hundreds of Possible Trips.
The difference between an exhausting European vacation and an unforgettable one often comes down to pacing, logistics, and choosing the right combination of places.
Ted helps determine which cities belong together, how long to stay, whether trains or private transfers make the most sense, and when adding another destination improves the trip, or simply makes it feel rushed.
From an Italy honeymoon to a multi-country anniversary journey, the itinerary is designed as one connected experience rather than a list of reservations.
Europe trips may include
- Italy
- Greece
- France
- Spain
- Portugal
- Croatia
- Switzerland
- Ireland & Scotland
- Central Europe
- Multi-country itineraries

The Difference
What "Custom" Actually Means
01
The Right Trip Structure
Choosing destinations that work well together and setting a realistic pace, so the itinerary feels like one trip, not four crammed into ten days.
02
Hotels That Fit You
Selecting properties based on location, atmosphere, service, and how you'll actually use the hotel, not just what looks best in a photo.
03
Thoughtful Logistics
Coordinating flights, trains, transfers, ferries, tours, and timing so every handoff between cities and experiences works cleanly.
04
Experiences Worth Building Around
Private tours, memorable meals, cultural moments, and quieter romantic additions that give the trip its personality.
