This is vacation planning for the intentional traveler.

Here you'll discover vacations crafted with a personalized approach for your unique family, filled with intentional details that will inspire you and allow you to live in the moment instead of stressing about the details.

If you never want to take your family on just a 'trip', but want to travel for lifelong memories and new experiences you'll never forget, you’re in the right place.

 

The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.

Meet Lauren

While you can easily go to a website and 'book a trip', working with a professional travel designer gives you access to a wealth of knowledge, elevates your travel experience and allows you to travel with ease and intention.

My professional travel planning career began in 2017, and while most of my clients first knew me as a Disney and Universal Studios specialist, I've had the priviledge of helping many of them discover new destinations beyond the theme parks as their families grow!

As a wife and mom, I understand how overwhelming and time consuming planning your next vacation can feel; but as a traveler myself, I also know how new adventures can truly transform and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul. Which is why I love working with couples and families to help you avoid the overwhelm + difficulties of planning, and simply enjoy each destination, experience and time with one another.

 
 
 
 
  • The first step before hiring any travel advisor should always be making sure you’re a good fit for each other. My focus isn’t to ‘sell travel’, and this isn’t a booking site. We’ll be working together to plan and create a full vacation itinerary, so being able to talk, ask questions and getting to know one another is vital.

    When you’re ready to start planning, fill out the Trip Inquiry Form found here on my website. We’ll set up a time to get to know each other via phone or zoom call. This will allow us to get to know each other better and talk more about needs and expectations for your trip, as well as answer any questions you may have. If it looks like we're a good fit for each other, we can move forward with planning!

  • If you’ve decided that I’m a great fit for you and your vacation, the fun can begin! After our initial consultation, you’ll receive a welcome email and a link where you can process your trip planning fee. After that, you are officially part of the Briar and Main Travel Boutique family, and I get started on the research, details and planning for your vacation.

  • Now it’s my time to get to work matching the feedback you’ve given me to the right experiences and destination for you! Depending on the type of trip and destination I normally craft 1-2 proposal options for you to view.

    After you take time to review your proposal, we will make necessary adjustments based on your personal preferences and lock in your official travel plan!

  • Once finalized, we will make the necessary deposits and payments and then it's time to celebrate! Your vacation is officially in motion! But the planning and guidance doesn’t stop there. As your trip gets closer we will look at restaurant reservations, final details and more. I will be there for you step by step from now until you return. All that’s left for you to do is get the countdown started!
