Is this travel agency LEGIT? Or am I getting SCAMMED?
I am planning a $6,000 HONEYMOON with The Seven Holiday Travel Agency in Bali. The emails we have sent seem really legit, but I have noticed a pattern in a lot of their reviews that makes me doubt it. Paying a foreign company makes me so anxious. They are listed on Facebook and WeddingWire too. But I googled about Wedding Wire and the internet says reviews on there can be manipulated. Please someone help me and bring me peace by reassuring this is a real company. I already paid a $1,500 deposit. Here are the emails and the contract she sent me. I have marked out my personal information but does it seem legit?
Hoping to get someone’s opinion or help with this. Thank you.

If I were you I would go with my gut. If you don't trust them don't send any more money.
first of all, the picture is extremely blurry....
second of all, if you are seeing a pattern in their reviews and it gives you a bad feeling, back out.
Just call the hotel and airline to make sure it's legit and it's all booked
I'm a travel agent on the side and it appears legit.
My only concern is I looked at their Facebook page and they have 5,200 likes but when you look at all of their posts they only seem to have 1-2 likes on them which seems quite low for an audience of 5,200.
Don't be too concerned with them being overseas. I partner with different agencies and tour groups in different parts of the world.
They do have good reviews on tripadvisor.
A deposit is just that. Now they should send you confirmation numbers, hotel info, etc. You can use that to confirm stuff. You can also look up the hotel independently of the website and see if it is real. Use google earth and see if you can get a picture there that matches the advertisement. I would be wary if they want ALL of the money up front.
Seems legit, there’s multiple trip advisor reviews from people who reviewed a bunch of places.
