"Chris is amazing, she knows everything you need to know about Disney!! She adds so much excitement to your trip. She has booked 3 Disney trips for us and everyone one was perfectly arranged and organized and all we had to do was show up and have fun! Chris is a true pleasure to work with, she helped make our Disney dreams come true!!”

“Chris is the reincarnation of Cinderella's Fairy Godmother! I can hear her sing the "bibbidi-bobbidi-boo" song!

Every time a grandchild was born I hoped one day to be able to give them that Magical Disney Experience - just like my parents had done for my sons. In 2021, despite the pandemic and maybe because of it, it seemed the time couldn't be more right - they were at that sweet age of 10, 8 and 5 when magic can be real.

Chris made that Magic reality. Seemingly effortlessly, always attentively, 100% thoroughly and forever joyfully. So much so that I wish she were by my side over the last 45 years when I visited Disney in Anaheim, Tokyo, Paris, Hong Kong and Orlando. She made our family's December 2021 Disney World experience truly the most wonderful of them all.

Most people only use 15% of their computer's capabilities. Same with Disney. Most of us get completely overwhelmed by the Disneyworld website and everything Disney has to offer. Chris boosted our capacity to enjoy Disney to 150%. It seems almost too easy since all I had to do was TALK to her about my idea of a perfect vacation, like:

✔️ Family staying all in one location in one beautiful villa sleeping 12 at The Riviera

✔️No waiting in line during meal time by pre-reservations in the coolest restaurants

✔️Recommendations and access to the best classic as well as the newest and hottest rides and attractions!!

✔️Securing our VIP Guide so that we ended up doing almost 20 rides in one day!!

✔️Getting ALL the details right from park reservations, park-hopper passes, Magic Bands, travel insurance to where to order groceries to stock up our room fridge.

Apart from the weather Chris worked her Magic on every detail . A week prior to departure, Chris hosted a Zoom meeting with family members - all questions answered and expert tips on how to squeeze the best out of the My Disney Experience App. We felt stress-less and psyched!

We are grateful to Chris and energetically recommend her services!

Chris was an amazing support in setting up a trip to Disneyworld over five days with my husband and in-laws. She offered expert advice on best times to go, pros and cons of various hotels based on our interests, and even sent us a pre-trip care package with print outs and confirmations of everything we needed. She was always available, supportive, and always ready to help. Chris also kept us posted on health and safety info for our trip as park procedures shifted with the pandemic. Overall, I could not recommend her more :)

  • "Chris is absolutely amazing at helping you plan your dream vacation to Disney! I was totally overwhelmed with all of it and she has been incredible at walking me through what I need to know and offering suggestions to make the most out of a trip there with my family of 6! She can take care of everything or just offer guidance! Thank you Chris! My family thanks you too!"

  • "Chris has been great! She worked within our budget and helped us figure out exactly what we would want to do at each of the three theme parks. She was super helpful and promptly answered all of my crazy questions. I felt very prepared to go to Disney! Thank you so much for everything!"

  • "This is the second time we planned our Disney trip with Chris and the experience was exceptional. Chris has great knowledge about the parks inside out. Not only she helps us plan where to stay and dine but she also booked fast pass for us. I am a working mom therefore doesn’t have much time to do research on Disney and it can be overwhelming with all the information that’s out there. Chris makes sure that I am comfortable with her planning and keep in touch with me before, during and after the trip with no extra cost. I will never plan my Disney/ Universal Studios trip without Chris!"

  • "Chris Upon a Star was the wand that lit our magical Disney vacation. We ranged in age from 8mos to 75 and were 10 deep. Chris made sure we had everything we needed to make our trip amazing. She made everything easy, her recommendations were spot on and she was there every time we reached out - with answers and love. She is a gem and I will use her and refer her again and again!"

  • "Chris helped us manage our first Disney World adventure with three young kids (ages 5, 3, and 1) by carefully building an itinerary that filled our days but in a fun, realistic way. We had heard from friends and colleagues that Disney was amazing, of course, but also draining and hard on young children. We left feeling energized and eager to go back. We can’t say enough about how easy and positive Chris made the whole process. We initially sought out to book our adventure by ourselves but quickly found ourselves in over our head. Chris to the rescue! She helped us choose the perfect hotel for us (Beach Club) and figure out which character breakfasts and dinners to prioritize. We’ll never forget the look on our girls’ faces when Goofy, Minnie, or Belle showed up at our table. We were also so impressed at our older girls’ eagerness for roller coasters. Again, we believe that Chris' mastery of Disney made this all work. We're looking forward to our next Disney trip and couldn't imagine doing it without Chris Upon A Star!"

  • "Chris arranged an epic family adventure to Disney World and Universal Studios Orlando for us this summer! I was totally overwhelmed by planning a Disney vacation and Chris did all the leg work at no cost for us to have a great and stress free trip. She helped us book dinners and experiences as soon as they opened up so we could do everything we wanted and accommodated our last-minute room change needs with ease. Chris was patient and understanding and we are so grateful for her help in making this the best family vacation we could imagine. I would use Chris’s services again in a heartbeat!"

  • "Chris was amazing and I will never plan a Disney trip without her. We went to Disneyworld and Chris helped us select a hotel and park tickets package that fit within our budget. Then the magic really kicked in! Chris monitors the prices after booking with her. Disney released a promotion that decreased the cost of our package and Chris applied the promotion, saving us money! Once it was time to plan the details, Chris was invaluable with her advice, figuring out what we needed to reserve in order to get the experience we wanted. We met over zoom multiple times and had many email and text conversations. She is so patient, kind and knowledgeable. You cannot go wrong utilizing her free planning services!"

  • "AMAZING Service and recommendations. Chris was THE BEST and helped me determine the best options for my family. I will definitely use her again for vacation planning!! Our Universal experience was perfect and I know that is partially because of her. THANK YOU!!!!!!"

  • "First of all....if it were not for Chris I don't think I would have had half the amount of fun or preparedness for our first WDW family vacation. She was on it from the start...to say the least. From our first zoom with my sister to my constant texts (even during my vacation) made this trip so magical! She briefed us on all things Disney, ie resort options with detailed explanations/personal opinions, dining reservations, add-ons, must haves, must sees...YOU NAME IT! She gave me recommendations for grocery delivery, Disney Springs, rope drop, Universal Studios planning...the list just keeps going! We had special access to Universal using her services even though we were not staying on campus. The perks just kept perking with Chris! Our dinner reservations were on point from Jaleo (one of my favs) to ending at Tuskers at Animal Kingdom where we got to dine with the main park characters ie Mickey, Minnie etc. We went to all 4 parks (Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom) with hoppers, Genie +, early entry, Universal Studios with express passes and early entry. If you want to plan a small family vaca or large family vaca Chris is your girl! Love her and because of her I have created some of the best memories that my family will cherish for a lifetime! Love you Chris and love your Magic!"

  • "Chris made planning our Disney Vacation so easy! Without her, I wouldn't have known where or how to begin with planning such a momentous trip. She was easy to work with, offered wonderful tips and advice, helped us save money, and was 100% available to answer all of our questions. We can't wait to go back to Disney and will definitely work with Chris again to plan our next trip."

    Leise Jones

  • "We used Chris for our first trip to Disney as a family. Admittedly, we were stressed at the beginning of the process, but Chris was there every step of the way to support and guide us. By the time we got there, we were ready to enjoy ourselves and we had a great time! Chris even went the extra steps to make sure we could meet up with friends for dinner while we were there! She is truly the best and will make your vacation one that is personalized to what you and your family want (and need!) Thank you so much!!!"
