Welcome
Hey there, welcome to RWG!
We’re so excited to share this amazing journey of romantic escapes and weekend getaways for couples with you. You know, after spending over 10 years writing content online and exploring more than 20 countries while traveling the world, I’ve come to realize something truly special – the value of a romantic weekend trip for the health of a couple. And that’s exactly what inspired me to create this website.
We were burnt out, working too hard, and in serious need of a deeper connection. We forgot how magical small moments could be. So we made a promise, every 6 weeks we would go on a mini-adventure, a romantic weekend getaway. And thus, this idea was born.
Here’s the deal: our mission at Romantic Weekend Getaways is pretty straightforward. We want to inspire couples just like you, to embark on these incredible romantic escapes together. Because let’s face it, life can get busy, and we often forget to prioritize quality time with our partners.
But trust me, when you invest in a well-planned and intimate getaway, it can create unforgettable memories, strengthen your relationship, and deepen your connection in ways you never thought possible.
Meet the Team
Alyssa McGrail
Lead Copywriter
The moment Alyssa wrote her first story called “Penelope the Peanut Head” at 7 years old, she knew she loved to write. Her passion for creative writing took her to Chicago, and… straight into the plot twist known as student debt. Seeking adventure and opportunity, she moved to Taiwan to teach English before eventually returning to the U.S.
Back home, she dove headfirst into the daily grind of corporate America, grateful to be writing again but yearning for creative freedom. Today, Alyssa charts her own course, writing on her terms, for clients she chooses, and she wouldn’t have it any other way. But of course, she’s more than just her job! When she’s not working, you’ll find her at book club, camping in the desert, or crushing it at rec softball every Monday.
