Celebrating 8 years of helping my clients

March I was celebrating 8 years of helping my clients create magical memories at Disney and Beyond!!

I am so grateful for my clients and thankful for them putting their trust in me for their Disney planning.

They have made it possible for me to make a difference in their lives and they have made a difference in mine. 

When potential clients come to me I talk to them but mostly I listen.  It is so important to know what they want from their Disney vacation, everyone is different.  Yes, their are many similarities but also so many differences.  I look at it as a puzzle to solve and put together for them.  The results must be, well, magical.

I have found that their is really an emotional attachment and expectation when taking a vacation at Disney.  It is up to me to make this happen, to make magic happen. I find that this is more so when you have multi-generational travelers. You need to know what each person goals and expectations are and then work to exceed them.  These clients become my family-my nieces and nephews, as it were.

The earlier we can start planning the better we are.  6-8 months is wonderful!  We can certainly make magic happen with less time but for best results the longer time is best. Top items are dining at Disney restaurants, meeting characters, not standing in line for rides, going on the rides they want, seeing the shows on the list, knowing where to go and what to do next and so much more.  It can also be important which Disney Resort you stay at, they are all so different and offer different experiences.

 What are you looking forward to most?? 

  1. Jason B. Planning a Disney vacation can be a complex and daunting task.  You want to do it right and maximize the fun and memories you make with your family.  Colleen was an integral part of the planning for our last 2 trips.  There are so many little tricks that she helped us understand while guiding us around some of the common mistakes people make.  She helped take the stress out of the trip and let us focus on the magic of it all.  Can’t wait for our next trip!
  2. Rachel A. We originally met Colleen at a library workshop in 2017 while planning our 2018 trip.  The wealth of knowledge and details she knew about Disney, and was able to share in the planning process, was incredible!  Before our trip in 2022, Colleen obtained her travel agent license and we knew there was no one else to help book our trip!  Parks, food, hotels, specialty events, you name it, she can help with it all!
  3. Andrea D. “Planning our Disney trip with Colleen was a lifesaver! As a family of six with two babies, I was overwhelmed by the options. Colleen created a customized itinerary that saved us money on park tickets and eliminated all the stress. Every day, we knew exactly what to do, where to go, and even where the changing stations and kid-friendly restaurants were. Colleen even called mid-trip to check in and make sure we were having a blast! Our trip was magical, thanks to Colleen’s expertise. Book your stress-free Disney adventure today!”
  4. Jan F. We were so glad to have Colleen’s expertise in planning our family trip Disney.

    She coordinated each day in each of the various parks we visited , helped us choose the best rides and shows, and reserved our meals at each park…..making our trip so enjoyable.

    Colleen reviewed each of the days with us before we left for our trip, including helping us all to upload the Disney apps on to all our phones and showing us all how to use it and Genie plus.

    She really puts a lot of personal effort into planning vacations and we were so thrilled with our experience!!

  1. MT. We had a fantastic time in magic world.  The girls were so stinking cute and loved every second. Animal Kingdom was my fave.  The hotel was perfect and so clean and beautiful. All of your planning was so helpful. Of course D and C took charge and did all the daily scheduling and used the lightening passes with ease. My fave was the Avatar ride.  Scary as hell but soooo well done. We did it all!!!  Couldn’t have been more pleased. Thank you so much for leading the way to our fabulous most memorable time at Disney .Group hugs!
  2. Jasmin R.-Thank you for planning the most wonderful and memorable trip to Disney!  M couldn’t have asked for a more perfect first trip and I couldn’t have asked for more perfect planning.  You made the whole process so seamless and stress free it truly created the best vacation experience we’ve had together (even better than our honeymoon!)  All your tips and attention to detail made our Disney experience the best it could be!!  Extra special thank you for booking Oga’s Cantina for us- it was a highlight that we weren’t expecting and so enjoyed.

No matter what your Disney goals and dreams I tailor the vacation to your preferences and interests. Whether you’re seeking thrill rides, shows, dining experiences, character experiences, relaxation, and so much more, we can make it happen. Let’s pack your bags and get ready to go off on your magical Disney adventure!! Happy travels!
