Founder & Owner of Bright Wishes Agents
Travel Advisor Specializing in all Disney Destinations and Universal Studios
Hi there! I'm Trish Schlacht. I could tell you about how long I’ve been planning travel professionally (psst, it’s been 5+ years), or the special certifications my team holds (we’re proud graduates of the Disney College of Knowledge) but when it comes to why you should trust us with your Disney experience, it boils down to this:
Nobody knows and loves Disney like my team and I.
In fact, I take my kids at least once a month. And no, we don’t live in Orlando—we’re in Cleveland! I’ve stayed in every Walt Disney WorldⓇResort, have sailed on the Disney Cruise Line, have visited Disneyland® Resort multiple times, and have stayed at AULANI, A Disney Resort & Spa in Hawaii.
And as often as we ride Space Mountain® or watch the parade, we never get tired of it. Because there really is something magical about the Disney experience. My kids still get the biggest smiles on their faces when they spot their favorite characters or spy the spires of Cinderella’s Castle. It’s a place where kids get to be kids, and we adults get to tap into our “inner kid” for a while, too. It doesn’t get more special than that—especially when you have the insider knowledge on how to eke every last ounce of magic out of your stay.
So whether this is your first Disney vacation or your 10th, if you’re looking to maximize the magic, I invite you to trust your travels to us. We’ll infuse your itinerary with a personal touch, give away all our best Disney secrets, and ensure you, too, fall under the spell of the signature magic only found at Disney.

Hello! My name is Jackie and I specialize in all Disney destinations and Universal Studios. I have been a Disney fan my entire life - I travel to the parks multiple times a year and have gone on several cruises! I am a mom of young children so I pay specific attention to detail when it comes to booking families with children. I also love booking girls trips, bachelorette parties, or adults-only getaways!
My favorite Disney movie is Beauty and the Beast, and I cry every time I walk into Magic Kingdom and see the castle. I have a husband and two kids who love Disney just as much as I do!
Let me book your next trip to make your experience the most magical it can be!

Travel Advisor Specializing in all Disney Destinations
Hi, my name is Jen Gibbons and I love all things Disney! Growing up, my family was comprised of Disney fanatics and instilled the nostalgic feeling of magic that I never lost.
I travel to Walt Disney World often, and have experienced Disneyland, Aulani, and Universal Studios, as well. I am married and have a daughter who is as obsessed with Mickey as I am! I am a pediatric physical therapist, so I am always in tune with the newest Disney movies, songs, etc.
I love Disney, especially the parks, because everything is well thought out and well executed. No one does it like Disney. No matter what kind of trip this is for you, I’m excited to help you make it exactly what you hope it to be! See ya real soon!
Travel Advisor Specializing in all Disney Destinations, Universal Studios, All-Inclusive Vacations, and Certified Sandals Specialist
Hey there! My name is Kati and I'm a Travel Advisor with Bright Wishes Travel.
I am a Mom of four young children and I understand how stressful planning a family vacation can be! My goal is to provide you with knowledge, care, fun, tips, and simplicity to help your family plan some truly MAGICAL life-long memories!
At Bright Wishes Travel, my specialty lies in all things Disney, including Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, Aulani (Hawaii), Adventures by Disney, plus Universal Studios, Discovery Cove, and SeaWorld. Additionally, I am a Certified Sandals Specialist and can help you plan your next Sandals (adults-only) or Beaches (family friendly) vacation to the Caribbean. I also love sending my clients to all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and Punta Cana, and on cruises with Royal Caribbean and Celebrity.
So whether you are booking your family's DREAM vacation, a couple's getaway, an adult-only weekend, or even a special event, I'll be there to guide you every step of the way.
In our house we are truly Disney lovers from ages 5 to 40! And the best advice I can give is to remember that "'Ohana means family" and when times get tough, "just keep swimming" or even "let it go." "Adventure is out there" so, "Hakuna Matata." It's true that no one is "practically perfect in every way," but you are NEVER too old to "wish upon a star." Please don't forget that "all it takes is faith, trust, and pixie dust" to live "happily
ever after!"
I look forward to getting to know you and booking your next Disney Vacation!
