Who is
Aiden and Ivy
INTENTION. AUTHENTICITY. LEGACY.
We are a private travel design and destination wedding studio — built for those who move through the world with intention and refuse to settle for ordinary.
We bring intention, authenticity, and legacy to everything we create. From the Alps and Mediterranean to Latin America and the British Isles.
Through exclusive global partnerships, rigorous research, and a deeply collaborative approach, we design moments that feel alive. Not programmed.
Every journey is shaped around your vision, your values, and the life you've built.
Partnering with a select number of clients each season to ensure every journey is deeply personal, meticulously crafted, and singular in experience.
This is not a travel agency. This is Aiden & Ivy®.
the founder
LYDIA
Based in Boston, Lydia founded Aiden & Ivy® out of a simple belief: the most meaningful travel isn't accidental — it's designed.
Her own journeys shaped that conviction. Crisscrossing the misty Scottish countryside by train. Riding bareback down a beach in Cancun. Stepping knee-deep into a mud bath inside a Colombian volcano. These weren't just experiences; they were lessons in designing for privacy, choosing partners who honor space, and making the unexpected feel seamless.
That perspective guides every journey she creates. The unusual. The deeply personal. The quietly extraordinary.
THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY MOMENTS DESERVE TO BE experienced, NOT JUST SEEN.
LYDIA, UP CLOSE.
