I'm Mandy and I live in Cincinnati, Ohio with my husband, our two daughters, and our dog, Charlie. I fell in love with Disney in 2002 when my boyfriend (now husband) took me there while we were still in college at Ohio State. Now, we return yearly with our daughters and it's become our home away from home. I taught elementary school for the last 15 years, so if you're looking for someone that can

translate the intricacies of planning a Disney vacation into something a 5th grader would understand, look no further! And if you're interested in a foodie adventure as part of your vacation, I went to culinary school and have eaten my way throughout much of Disney World. I'd love to share my recommendations with you make your vacation as easy Bippity Boppity Boo!

EPIC Universe, part of Universal Studios Orlando, may be the most impressive theme park many people still haven't experienced!

Now celebrating its 1st birthday, this park has wowed guests with next-level immersive experiences that redefine what a theme park can be!

Some of the highlights include:

🏎️ Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge: Race through the Mushroom Kingdom using augmented reality technology, collecting coins, throwing shells, and competing alongside Mario and friends in a truly immersive experience that makes you feel like you are really in the video game!

🦍 Mine-Cart Madness: Jumping from track to track, join Donkey Kong on a wild coaster adventure that makes it feel like you’re leaping across broken sections of the mine ride as chaos unfolds all around you!

🐉 How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk: Step into the world of Hiccup and Toothless with Viking adventures, dragon encounters, family-friendly rides, and one of the most beautifully themed lands ever created!

👹 Monsters Unchained- The Frankenstein Experiment: Glide from scene to scene, through Dark Universe, twisting and turning, as legendary monsters come to life with incredible animatronics and special effects. This ride became a quick favorite, even for this non-horror movie fan!

🚀 Stardust Racers – a high-speed, dual-launch racing coaster where two tracks twist, launch, and “race” through the skies of Celestial Park. It’s fast, intense, and absolutely thrilling during the day and stunning at night when the entire area lights up like a cosmic dream.

Who's ready for an EPIC adventure? Add this as a one day add-on to a Disney trip or make a whole Universal Studios trip out of it! Let's start planning!

Last summer, 20 of us got a taste of the VIP life at Disney and it was way too fun not to do it again.

So this year, we’re going even bigger, we’re going EPIC!

I’m hosting an adults-only trip to EPIC Universe on August 19, 2026, with a 2-night stay at Universal's Stella Nova Resort, park tickets, and an 8-hour VIP tour that includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

And here's the best part: this is NOT just faster lines…this is skip-the-line access! We'll walk right onto rides and can re-ride our favorites as many times as we want. No waiting, no stress, just pure fun.

Come with your friends, your partner, or come solo and make new friends along the way. It’s going to be an amazing group and such a fun few days.

Who wants to come?! Spots are limited—message me for more details!

Because adults deserve fields trips too!

How can you ride 25 rides in one day and save 24 hours of wait time?

A Private VIP Tour at Universal's Epic Universe!

Last December, my oldest daughter and I had the opportunity to experience one and I’m not exaggerating when I say it was AMAZING!

With a Private VIP Tour at EPIC you get:
🎟️ Private entrance into the park — no lines, no waiting, just enter!
🎢 A day catered to exactly what you want. Ride your favorites rides over and over. For us, it was Stardust Racers five times in a row for the win!
🍽️ Breakfast, lunch, and dinner? All included.
🎭 Preferred seating at all shows and all character meet & greets fully handled. Two hour wait to meet Toothless? Nope, it was 2 minutes!

If you're interested in taking your day at EPIC to the next level, reach out today and let's get started!
