Every destination wedding planner knows the nightmare: scattered WhatsApp groups, missed announcements, and guests left waiting when plans change. In this episode of Passports & Promises with Shalene, Chanell Facey shares how her 2015 destination wedding disaster led to the creation of Grouped, an app designed to fix the chaos of group travel and wedding communication. As both co-founder of Grouped and a destination wedding specialist, Chanell explains how the platform helps planners and couples manage large guest lists, coordinate real-time itinerary updates, and send emergency alerts without relying on messy group chats. She shares experiences from coordinating a 96-person family trip in St. Martin to managing smaller wedding groups, showing how technology fills the gaps even in the most organized destination packages. The conversation also explores how planners and travel concierge services are using digital tools to streamline communication, ensuring guests stay informed and engaged throughout the event.
