I've spent years turning chaotic Disney days into the trips families talk about forever. Happily Ever Guided exists so your family gets an expert in your corner — before the trip and during it.
Here's a confession: I didn't grow up a Disney kid. I walked into Walt Disney World for the first time as an adult, fully expecting a theme park for children — and instead I found the most obsessively well-crafted place I'd ever been. The way a land pulls you into its story before you've ridden anything. The details nobody's forced to notice, built beautifully anyway. I came home and couldn't stop thinking about how it all worked — and I've been going back ever since. More than a hundred park days later, I'm still finding new details.
The other thing you should know: I've always been the planner. In every friend group, every group trip, I'm the one with the itinerary — it's just how I'm wired. Disney World turned out to be the thing my brain was built for: a place with thousands of moving parts that rewards someone who genuinely loves learning all of them. For years I did it free for everyone I knew. Happily Ever Guided is me finally doing it for you.
Between trips you'll find me in Florida, close enough to the parks that my knowledge never gets stale — when a ride opens, a menu changes, or Disney reinvents Lightning Lane for the hundredth time, I've usually seen it in person within days.
The receipts behind the recommendations:
If Lightning Lane isn't worth it for your day, I'll say so. If a restaurant is overrated, I'll steer you somewhere better. My advice isn't tied to what earns more.
Naps, snack emergencies, height-requirement heartbreak — my plans are built for actual children, not spreadsheet robots.
Disney changes constantly. I keep up with every ride opening, pricing change, and system overhaul so you don't have to.
Whether it's your first trip or your fifteenth, I'd love to hear what you're dreaming up.
