Celebrate Women

WDW Dreams Into Memories

We are celebrating Women’s History and Women all month long. What better way to celebrate women than to support their small businesses.

When the pandemic hit, many people lost their jobs or had to abandon them to stay home with children that were unable to go to school. Now as we slowly start to rebuild, small businesses need our help and support more than ever. During this month that we devote to celebrate amazing women of our past, present, and future, do your part to support women owned and operated business.

I am a travel professional helping guests travel to all corners of the world with Disney through parks, Aulani, cruising, and Adventures by Disney. Disney is truly a passion of mine. I also help guests with their Universal Studios travel and have recently became trained and certified in several cruise lines (Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Virgin) and all-inclusive resorts (Sandals, Club Med). I do this because I love to travel myself and I really enjoy helping others turn their travel dreams into memories that will last a lifetime.

If you are unable or not ready to travel at this moment, you can still support your favorite travel agent! Here are a few ways:

  • Like their posts on social media
  • Comment on their posts
  • Leave a review
  • Give them a shout out
  • Refer them to friends and family

That last one is probably the most important. A referral from a previous guest is one of the highest compliments an agent can receive. Also, we can work with anyone, anywhere. It does not have to be someone local.

I thank you for your continued business and support. It means so much!

National Plan For A Vacation Day!

WDW Dreams Into Memories

The last Tuesday of January is National Plan for a Vacation Day. It comes at a perfect time – the holidays are over, the weather is miserable, and there are no school breaks to look forward to for a while.

Having a vacation planned gives families something to look forward to together. When we have a Disney trip planned, we do family movie nights each weekend. One night, we make diner together and watch a different Disney Movie. If I am feeling really crafty, I will plan the dinner around the movie – Spaghetti & meatballs with Lady & The Tramp, Hawaiian Chicken with Moana, Pizza with Toy Story, Beef & Broccoli with Mulan…etc. Even as my littles are not so little anymore, this is something we all look forward to through the week and gets us talking about or exciting trip ahead.

Planning ahead also has a lot of benefits – you can spread out payments over several months and have longer to save for all the fun treats & souvenirs. You can take advantage of promotions as they come along as long as there is availability. You also have a better chance of getting the resort/ship & room category you prefer before they sell out. Let’s not forget the 180-day advanced dining reservations that are so coveted. Planning ahead gives you all of these advantages and more!

Which Disney Destination will you visit in 2020? Maybe it is time to try something new?! If you cruise often but haven’t checked out a Disney Cruise, it is time you see why they win all the awards that they do year after year. If you visit Disney World each year, step out of the box! Visit the west coast and see Disneyland or try a Disney Cruise. Looking to travel abroad to where your ancestors are from? Adventures by Disney has amazing options all around the globe that will have you experiencing other countries like you never thought you could.

Contact me today so we can “Plan For A Vacation”! My planning services are free of charge and I can assist you with stress-free preparations for a Magical Trip. Let’s get you something to be excited about in 2020!

A Whole New Role

A Whole New Role

WDW Dreams Into MemoriesLeave a comment

My love for Disney and Planning has brought a new role into my life. After a conversation with the wonderful Agent who I had assist us in turning our Disney Dreams into memories, I decided this would be a lot of fun! I have been told (more than I care to admit) that I over plan. Sometimes, I even get a little blue that the planning part is over once our Disney Trip Countdown gets to zero. Even though I plan for families & friends, I am always looking for another trip to plan. To fill that planning void, I decided to become a Vacation Specialist for Disney Destinations.

If you want to visit Walt Disney World, Disneyland, A Disney Cruise, Aulani or a Disney Adventure, let me plan it for you! I can take all of the stress off of you and your family by performing all the different tasks associated with planning a trip.

Love to plan your own trips obsessing over each second like I do? Using a Disney Vacation Specialist like myself is still a great idea. I can monitor the rates at Disney once you are reserved in case any discounts arise and then can apply them to your reservation! I can also make some of those phone calls that are harder to make for Magical Experiences.

I can be as hands on or hands off as you would like with your reservation, but I will take care of it as if it were my own.

Also, with qualifying reservations, we send out our Minnie Box! It is our gift to you and will arrive at your home prior to you leaving, wrapped up in a big yellow bow! Each is different and tailored to your particular family.

I also can assist you with reservations and packages for Universal!!

Let me work with you to turn Dreams into Memories.
