About Me
Hi, I’m Alesia—mom of two boys, two cats and a dog, married to a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, and the planner behind AMD Vacations. We met in North Carolina and for a while lived close enough to Walt Disney World to make road-trips to the magic a thing; now we’re in the Northeast, still chasing that same magic. I know firsthand how different ages need different kinds of fun (we’ve done four parks in a day and pool-day bliss), so my planning style is calm, flexible, and real-life friendly—equal parts teen thrills, little-kid wonder, and parent sanity. If you want a trip that feels joyful instead of overwhelming, you’re in the right place.
What I Do (and Why It Helps)
Planning Disney can feel like a part-time job. I make it simple by pairing real-world park strategy with calm, family-first guidance. Expect:
- Tailored recommendations for resorts, tickets, and pacing that fit your family and budget
- Practical park-day plans that save time and keep everyone’s energy happy
- Reservation support and tips that remove guesswork (dining, Lightning Lane, mobile order, and more)
My goal: you arrive confident, prepared, and ready to have fun—without the stress.
My Approach
I’m all about clarity, kindness, and results. That means:
- Listen first. Your family’s ages, pace, interests, and must-dos guide every plan.
- Keep it doable. We build a realistic schedule that leaves room for rest and spontaneity.
- Share what works. I test strategies, refine them, and pass along what actually helps in-park.
Free Resources to Get You Started
I maintain a few quick, printable tools for clients and subscribers—and I update them frequently so you always have the most current info:
- Family Disney Packing List — a clean checklist organized by carry-on, park bag, and hotel
- Quick Start Guide — a five-minute walkthrough for choosing and timing your selections.
You can grab both right away on my Contact page after a quick form. If you opt in to emails, I’ll send updated versions whenever I refresh them.
Why Work With a Planner?
Because the details matter, and your time is valuable. A great plan keeps spirits high, budgets on track, and “we’ll figure it out later” moments to a minimum. I bring the research, the templates, and the up-to-date know-how so you can relax and enjoy the magic.
