One of our favorite parts of Disney is the food- no lies to tell there! Let me share with you one of our new go-to spots that I’ll be recommending to clients asking my faves!

Speaking of dining, did you know those that choose to book their Disney trips with me also get the convenience of not having to wake up and fight for their dining reservations?

I set my alarm ⏰
wake up and log on 💻
and snag all of this for them! 🍴

I’d love to do that for you, too! Let’s talk about your next getaway!

Our HONEST review of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! 👻🎃

We went a couple of weeks ago, and I can officially say… we LOVED it. And honestly, I wasn’t expecting some of the things we ended up loving the most!

FIRST, what exactly is Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party?
It’s a special separately ticketed Halloween event at Magic Kingdom held on select nights during the fall. Once the party starts, the park transforms into a full-on Halloween celebration with special entertainment, characters you don’t normally see, trick-or-treating throughout the park, Halloween treats, costumes, decorations, and shorter wait times for many attractions.

⬇️Here’s what our favorite things were:

👿 Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular
My oldest is super into the Disney villains, so getting to see so many of them out and about was a HUGE hit. There’s something about seeing the villains in Halloween mode that just makes the whole night feel extra fun.
The Hocus Pocus show at the castle was probably one of my favorite parts. It’s one of those things that feels very “Disney Halloween” and was absolutely worth staying for.
ASK ME ABOUT OUR PLANNING TIP FOR THIS!

🎢 THE RIDE WAIT TIMES
This might honestly be one of the biggest perks. 😂 Everything we rode was basically 5–20 minutes. Being able to walk onto rides all night instead of spending half the party standing in line? YES PLEASE.

🍬 Trick-or-treat trails
While this is so fun, it was pretty low on our priority list. BUT The boys had a blast going through the different trails and collecting candy… and apparently we collected enough because we are STILL eating it. 😂🍭

🎃 And it really is “Not-So-Scary.”
If you have younger kids who love Halloween but aren’t ready for anything *too* creepy, I think this is such a fun middle ground. There are spooky elements, villains and Halloween entertainment, but it still feels very kid-friendly with the regular characters you know and love. (Extra points from my family for the Powerline Max sighting- IYKYK! ⚡️)

🎟️ It is a separate-ticket event, so if you're planning a Disney trip and wondering whether it's worth adding, that's actually something I'd be happy to help you figure out. It isn't automatically the right choice for every family or every trip!

But for our family?

10/10. Would eat questionable amounts of Halloween candy and run on rides all night all over again. 😂🎃

We just got back from a visit to Disney World. We stayed at Disney’s Yacht Club this time and I 10/10 recommend (it’s my new favorite!) ⚓️🛟🐭🦞✨

It felt like a little seaside escape tucked right into the magic. Perfect for an end of summer getaway!

🌊 Stormalong Bay is a vacation all on its own, boats whisk you off to the parks, AND you can walk to EPCOT or several other resorts… which means an evening stroll and a snack (or three 😉) is always within reach.

I’ll be sharing more about our trip in the next couple of days! Let me know if you have any questions about what we did or tips and tricks for your upcoming trip (either on the books, or in your mind!)

With school starting back I wanted to share a little graphic to help all of you early planners be able to quickly see how many opportunities you have to get away during the school year! 📅

Planning vacations 6-12 months out often allows for the best prices and availability when looking at a Disney resort, a cruise ship, and other destinations! 🏰🚢✨

I’d love to help your family start looking at possibilities to sneak away from the chaos and spend quality time together!

Thinking of a Disney cruise? Wondering if it’s the right fit for you? Let’s talk! OR read about my friend Emily’s recent experience on the Disney Fantasy! 🚢 🐭 ✨

“We had the most amazing time on our family’s first Disney Fantasy cruise, and we couldn’t have done it without Tori! As first-time Disney cruisers, we had so many questions, and she made the entire planning process so easy. She made sure we had all of our documentation, answered every question we had about packing and what to expect, and even helped us get a Royal Gathering reservation at the perfect time for our girls.

Our favorite port was Disney Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point. The beautiful turquoise water and character meet-and-greets made it such a magical day! We also loved our oceanview stateroom—the oversized porthole was perfect for watching the ocean as we sailed.

The girls had so much fun trying new foods in the restaurants (and making late-night ice cream runs!), and we all loved the entertainment. Aladdin was our favorite show, the Royal Gathering was unforgettable, and we couldn’t get enough of the AquaDuck!

If you’re thinking about taking a Disney cruise, we highly recommend working with Tori. She took all the stress out of planning so we could focus on making incredible family memories. We can’t wait to sail with Disney again!”

One of my clients was originally planning to stay at Disney's Polynesian Village Resort, but we decided to add one extra night at Disney's All-Star Sports Resort to kick off their vacation—and I absolutely love this strategy! 🏈🌺

Here's why:

💦 **Maximize your arrival day!**
With the 2026 complimentary Disney Water Park admission for Disney Resort guests on check-in day, they'll get to spend their travel day enjoying a full day at the water park instead of wasting that incredible perk on time spent in the car or at the airport. 🌊☀️

🏨 **Ease into vacation mode**
Arrive the day before, settle in, and wake up already at Disney instead of traveling on your first park day.

🎢 **More park time**
You'll be rested, refreshed, and ready for rope drop instead of arriving exhausted.

🧳 **Disney does the heavy lifting**
On transfer day, Disney will move your luggage to your next resort while you head off to enjoy the parks.

💰 **Stretch your vacation budget**
A value resort for your arrival night lets you save a little money while still enjoying the deluxe experience for the rest of your trip.

✨ **Experience two amazing Disney resorts** Every resort has its own unique theme, atmosphere, and amenities. Why not enjoy a little of both?

Sometimes it's the smallest tweak to an itinerary that makes the biggest impact. As your travel planner, I love finding little ways to help families get more magic, more value, and a smoother, more relaxing vacation. 🐭💙
