For some people, travel begins with a search bar. For Jared Wexler, it starts with a conversation.
The founder of Love LV Travel did not set out to build a business in the traditional sense. He simply followed a long-standing passion. For nearly a decade, Wexler had been the person friends and family turned to when planning their next getaway. He was the one fielding questions, offering recommendations and, more often than not, mapping out entire itineraries just for the joy of it.
“I’ve always been the guy everyone asks, ‘What’s your next trip?’” Wexler said.
That passion turned into something more after a group trip where he naturally stepped in to organize activities and logistics. It was his wife who recognized the opportunity and encouraged him to turn his skill into a business. In 2022, Love LV Travel was born.
At its core, the company is built on a simple idea that has become increasingly rare in a digital-first world. Travel is personal, and planning it should be too.
Wexler approaches every client relationship with the understanding that no two travelers are the same. For him, travel is not defined by a single destination or style. It is about experiencing something new, something that cannot be replicated at home. That might mean a quiet European village, a luxury cruise in the middle of the ocean or a stretch of pristine beach with nothing but sun and sand.
That philosophy shapes every itinerary he creates.
“The beauty of travel is that it means something different to everyone,” he said.
It is also why Love LV Travel avoids prepackaged trips. Instead, Wexler begins each client experience the same way. He listens. Then he asks questions. Then he listens again.
The process is intentionally thorough. From the moment a client leaves their front door to the moment they return home, every detail is considered. Flights, transfers, accommodations, dining reservations and curated experiences are all carefully aligned to fit the traveler’s preferences.
The goal is simple. Clients should not feel like they are managing a trip. They should feel like they are on one.
“The biggest benefit is that all you have to do is pack,” Wexler said. “Traveling shouldn’t be work.”
That level of attention has become a defining feature of the business, especially as more travelers begin to feel overwhelmed by the endless options available online. While booking platforms and artificial intelligence tools promise convenience, Wexler believes they often fall short where it matters most.
When something goes wrong, there is no substitute for human connection.
“Sure, you might find a lower price online,” he said. “But who is there to help when your room floods on your honeymoon?”
It is in those moments that Love LV Travel’s network and relationships make a difference. Wexler works closely with partners around the world, often securing added amenities or upgrades for clients before they even arrive. And if an issue arises, he is already in contact with the right people to resolve it quickly.
That behind-the-scenes effort allows travelers to stay focused on what matters, the experience itself.
Wexler’s own travels continue to inspire the journeys he plans for others. Southern Europe remains a favorite, particularly Italy and Spain. He has visited Spain four times and Italy three, and he does not expect that pattern to change anytime soon.
“The language, the food, the sun, the culture, the history,” he said. “And the food.”
One of his most memorable experiences took place just outside Barcelona. After sailing to a hillside winery, he found himself seated under a pergola, sipping cava and learning to prepare pa amb tomàquet, a traditional Catalonian tomato bread. On one side stretched views of the Mediterranean. On the other, a quiet village that looked as though it belonged in a painting.
“It didn’t seem real,” he said.
Those are the kinds of moments he hopes to create for his clients. Not just trips, but memories that feel almost cinematic in their beauty.
As for what is trending, some destinations never lose their appeal. Italy continues to top the list for summer travel, drawing visitors with its blend of culture, cuisine and timeless charm. The allure of La Dolce Vita remains as strong as ever.
Still, Wexler encourages travelers to think beyond the obvious. Some of his own bucket list goals include cruising through the Panama Canal, exploring Hawaii beyond the typical tourist paths and spending more time in Europe’s lesser-known villages.
Even his upcoming travels reflect that sense of curiosity. A Mediterranean cruise featuring Monte Carlo as its main draw is next on his itinerary, where he is looking forward to soaking in the glamour of the iconic destination with a martini in hand.
Ultimately, what sets Love LV Travel apart is not just the destinations it offers, but the way it approaches the journey. In a time when automation is everywhere, Wexler is doubling down on something more human.
Relationships.
“We are constantly building connections around the globe and with our clients,” he said. “Then we bring those together for the best possible experience.”
For travelers who crave more than just a reservation confirmation, that approach can make all the difference. Because the most meaningful trips are not just about where you go. They are about how you feel while you are there.
And with the right guidance, that feeling can start long before takeoff.
