Cinderella's Castle

Beyond the Castle: Personalized Magic for Everyone

Turning "Someday" Into Your Best Story Yet

Hi there! My name is Heather Valentine, and I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’re dreaming of the iconic silhouette of Cinderella Castle, the turquoise waters of the Caribbean, or the thrill of a world-class cruise ship, I’m here to make sure the only thing you have to do is pack your bags.

Travel isn’t just a hobby for me...it’s a family legacy. As a wife to a husband who is my amazing travel partner and the mother of two beautiful daughters, I lead a family of Disney World lovers and dreamers. We’ve traveled to Walt Disney World over 10 times as a family and have sailed on three magical Disney cruises. We make it a point to never have the same trip twice; we love staying in new resorts and trying fresh restaurants and activities every time we go. When the time comes to slow down, we have  set sail on Royal Caribbean to relax, reset and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of cruising. This "on-the-ground" experience means I can tell you exactly which character breakfast is worth the hype and which hidden gems your family will love.

I specialize in the "every last detail" kind of planning. As a proud travel advisor with Castle Dreams Travel, a premier locally-owned agency, I combine big-brand expertise with the heart and personal touch of a local business.
