Creating Dream Weddings Abroad The Journey of The Wedding Travel Company

Nominated for The Wedding and Honeymoon Award at this year's British Travel Awards, The Wedding Travel Company was established a decade ago by Luke Nathan and Noel Nurhat. We sit down with them to delve deeper into their business journey and ethos.

 

Planning a destination wedding has become effortlessly convenient. From enchanting destinations such as Cyprus, Mauritius, Barbados, to the picturesque Santorini, there’s a dream location for every couple. Yet, creating a dream wedding overseas from the UK wasn’t always as seamless. That’s where The Wedding Travel Company stepped in. Drawing from three decades of travel industry expertise, founders Luke Nathan and Noel Nurhat shifted their attention to creating unforgettable destination weddings. 

 

In the decade since its launch, The Wedding Travel Company has seen a dramatic shift in the industry landscape, with a surging demand for destination weddings. Whether enticed by pristine beaches bathed in endless sunshine or seeking an intimate gathering, every couple has a unique narrative behind their decision to say “I do” abroad.

 

The biggest shift came during COVID-19. In the uncertain times, couples looked for alternative options away from the UK, and it is a trend that remains highly popular today.

 

Co-Founder of The Wedding Travel Company, Luke Nathan, explains more: “Using our 30 years of experience in the travel industry, we’ve been able to expertly plan over 5,000 weddings abroad. From navigating logistical challenges to creating bespoke experiences, we have built a team that is dedicated to making every couple’s dreams turn into a reality. 

 

“We understand the intricacies of planning destination weddings and have created strong relationships with venues, vendors, and suppliers worldwide. This enables us to offer seamless coordination and unparalleled support throughout the entire wedding planning process. As a business, we are focused on creating unforgettable memories while we take care of the details.”



Noel Nurhat, Co-Founder of The Wedding Travel Company, added: “Ensuring we provide the highest-quality venues and wedding suppliers in every destination, regardless of budget, is paramount for us. That is why we have prioritised building a team dedicated to thorough research and collaborative partnerships with venues. Our aim is to ensure that every venue meets the exacting standards necessary to guarantee perfection for every couple’s wedding day.

 

"Our wedding couples have added peace of mind with our ABTA Protection," Noel Nurhat continued. "It's crucial for us that they feel secure throughout the entire planning process. With our ABTA membership, they can rest assured that their investment is protected, further enhancing their confidence in our services.”
