Magically Manda - Travel Advisor with Pixie Vacations I handle the logistics so you can enjoy the experience. Ever since I was a child, I’ve felt the magic of Disney shaping who I am today.

Disney • Universal • Cruises • All-Inclusives • Youth Group Travel
Strategic planning for families and teams who want organized, realistic trips that actually work in real life. The art of storytelling, heroic characters, and groundbreaking experiences has captivated me for as long as I can remember. Life is full of ups and downs, challenges, and epic adventures where each of us is the main charac

ter. For me, Disney has always been a constant—a source of joy, inspiration, and wonder. When you take a moment to appreciate the incredible details woven into Disney movies, songs, attractions, and entertainment, you begin to see what sets this company apart. That same attention to detail inspires me to create a life story that’s just as grand and memorable. Visiting the parks feels like coming home. Each trip holds standout memories that I cherish, and over the years, I’ve developed a deep love not only for the resorts but also for sharing my expertise with others. Among friends, I’ve often joked about having “the Big D degree” because I’ve mastered the art of navigating Disney vacations in Florida and California. But my passion for travel doesn’t stop there—my heart also belongs to the open seas. Cruising has become one of my favorite ways to explore the world. Whether it’s a magical Disney Cruise, a thrilling adventure with other cruise lines, or a relaxing escape to tropical destinations, there’s nothing quite like the experience of waking up to new horizons. Cruises combine the excitement of travel with the convenience of having everything you need right at your fingertips—entertainment, dining, relaxation, and adventure all in one. I love helping families and travelers discover the joy of cruising and tailoring the perfect itinerary to suit their unique style. Planning any vacation can feel overwhelming, especially when there are so many options to choose from. Whether it’s your first trip or your hundredth, my goal is to help you create a magical experience tailored to your family’s needs. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, insider tips, or someone to handle all the details, I’m here to help at any capacity you need. Becoming a vacation planner that is specialized in Disney, Universal, and cruise vacations feels like answering a calling I’ve had for years. I’m so excited to be part of Pixie Vacations and to help make your travel dreams come true. If you’ve made it this far, welcome to the club—I can’t wait to connect with you and bring a little extra magic (or a sea breeze!) to your journey!

🌎Universal Orlando is not a one-day add-on. It’s a full destination with immersive lands, themed resorts, Epic Universe access, and built-in resort perks.

💰🌭Right now, you can receive a $300 hotel dining credit when you book a 5-night Universal vacation package at select hotels for 2026 travel.

When you work with me, I don’t just book a room. I build the right package — tickets, Express Pass strategy, transportation, resort selection, and a realistic itinerary so you aren’t exhausted and overspending.

If you’re ready to plan Universal the smart way, comment “UNIVERSAL” or send me a message. 🦖🧙🏻‍♀️🎢

People love to say,
“Universal isn’t for little kids.”
“There’s nothing for them to do.”

Respectfully…
have you taken a five-year-old anywhere with characters?

We did FOUR days at Universal Orlando Resort.

And this was before Universal Epic Universe even opened.
Now? There is even more for younger kids to explore, interact with, and be fully immersed in.

Universal is more than just thrill rides.
🎪It’s captivating shows that bring Hollywood movie magic to life.
🏞️It’s interactive lands.
✨It’s character moments.
🍻It’s treats (yes… including famous Butterbeer).
🌎It’s high-fives, signature poses, and high energy dance moves.

For fun, here’s how many rides my vertically-challenged 5-year-old was able to ride:
🌎Universal Studios
12 out of 13 rides
🦖Islands of Adventure
12 out of 18 rides
🐲Epic Universe
7 out of 10 rides

That’s not “nothing to do.”
That’s a full vacation.

If you’ve been on the fence about taking your younger kids, let’s talk.
The refundable deposit to book a Universal vacation package is just $50 per person, which holds your spot while we build the right strategy for your family.

Comment UNIVERSAL and I’ll show you how I plan it differently for families with younger kids.

💐 I can't bee-lieve it is almost EPCOT’s Flower & Garden Festival time 🌸🐝

This seasonal festival at EPCOT is included with your park admission and runs March 4 – June 1 — making spring one of the most beautiful times to visit.

🌷 What makes it so special?

🌼 Stunning Character Topiaries
You’ll find larger-than-life Disney characters sculpted entirely from flowers and greenery throughout the park. They aren’t just decorations — they’re works of art and perfect photo spots.
🍓 Outdoor Kitchens
Seasonal food booths feature fresh, garden-inspired dishes and creative drinks you won’t find the rest of the year. It’s like a springtime food festival wrapped into your park day.
🎶 Garden Rocks Concert Series
Live performances from well-known artists bring extra energy to the evenings — all included with your admission.
🦋 Interactive Gardens & Exhibits
Butterfly gardens, themed displays, and hands-on areas make it feel immersive and relaxing at the same time.

My family loves EPCOT year-round, but the festivals are what keep each visit feeling fresh and new. Flower & Garden has this peaceful, colorful energy that just feels different from the rest of the year.

Have you experienced Flower & Garden before? 🌸

What’s your favorite part — the food, the concerts, or the topiaries?

And if you haven’t been yet… what would you be most excited to see? 🌷✨

Ready to see what the buzz is about? 🐝
Send me “FLOWER” and I’ll show you how my clients approach Disney differently.🎀

Happy Valentine’s Day 🤍
As a wife, a mom, and someone who truly values time together, I’m reminded how lucky I am for the love in my life, the loud moments, the quiet ones, and everything in between.
Wishing you a day full of whatever makes your heart feel full.

I just can’t with this adorable Marie I found at my Lego store in Downtown Summerlin! She is a brand new set that just released last month.

Tell me below which Lego set you are building while snowed in!

🎉✨ Happy Birthday, Walt Disney! ✨🎉

Born on December 5, 1901, the man who sparked a global imagination would’ve been amazed to see the magic still inspiring families today. ✨🏰

One of my favorite things about visiting Disney parks is seeing the wonder through my daughter’s eyes, especially when she pauses at the Walt Disney statue in EPCOT. Something about those moments reminds me that this entire place started with one person’s dream… and now here she is, growing up inside it. 💫💛

Thank you, Walt, for believing in curiosity, creativity, and a world where families can escape into stories together.

❓ What does Disney mean to you and your family?

Share your memories. I’d love to hear them. 💬✨

Happy Birthday, Walt. Thanks for the magic. 🎈🪄

With Epic Universe being so new, there are still kinks to be worked out. The park gets gruff for attractions having a lot of down time, but we need to remember that the technology is all brand new and needs time to be perfected. When I visited in April 2025, Monsters Unchained was my favorite attraction. I see people talking about Frankentein’s Monster often being in “B mode”. I thought I would share him in his full glory for everyone to see.

🍷✨ 2025 Food & Wine Classic at the Swan and Dolphin! ✨🍷

It officially became a 1st annual tradition for us!

Your ticket includes unlimited food and wine tastings from the incredible chefs of the Swan & Dolphin (which will forever be special to us because that’s where we had our first wedding reception, and the food was NEXT LEVEL 💍✨). Add in bites from amazing local vendors + live bands, and the whole night felt electric.

And somehow… out of everything we tried…
📸 the only food photo I managed to capture was Kari holding an Asian Sticky Rib.

If you’ve never gone, it’s such a fun adults’ night out with great vibes, great food, and such a unique Disney-area experience. One of my favorite parts was how nice everyone showed up wearing their classy best.
❓ Have you ever been to the Food & Wine Classic?
