Full-Service Family & Group Travel Planning
Thoughtfully Curated by Lauren is a boutique, full-service travel agency built for multigenerational families and group trips. I specialize in Disney destinations including Adventures by Disney, European river cruising, luxury ocean cruising, and family-friendly luxury resorts and hotels. Every plan starts with concierge-style attention to your group's actual travel style, not a template. Whether it's grandparents joining the trip, several households coordinating one big trip together, or a single family longing for a stress-free, elevated vacation, I build the plan so everyone can simply show up.
For families who want the trip planned right the first time
I know firsthand how hard it is to get everyone in one place at the same time, and how valuable that time is once you do.
Before starting my own business as a travel advisor, I spent eight years as a teacher, watching families try to carve out time together around school schedules, sports, and everything else competing for space on the calendar. Now I see it from the other side as a mom of two. I homeschool, and my husband travels often for work. Between our own schedules, I know exactly how hard it is to get one family in the same place, let alone coordinate a trip with grandparents or plan a family reunion with several households trying to line up their calendars. That's the exact puzzle I solve for my clients every day, so the time you've carved out together is spent making memories you'll all cherish for years to come.

Strategy Built from Real Experience
I've traveled with kids of various ages and across multiple generations, so I know firsthand what actually makes those trips work, not just what looks good on paper.
Full-Trip Thinking
I plan the trip before and after the highlight- the flights, the hotel nights, the transitions- so nothing gets left to chance, no matter how many rooms or generations are involved.
Concierge, Not Corporate
You connect with me, a real person who knows your group, not a call center or a search engine.
Why Families Choose to Work with Thoughtfully Curated by Lauren
Because getting everyone on the same trip shouldn't be your job
Coordinating a multigenerational or multi-family trip takes real strategy: different budgets, different paces, different school and work schedules, all under one itinerary. I bring firsthand experience juggling those same logistics in my own family, plus a planning process with systems built specifically for that kind of complexity.
Thoughtfully Curated by Lauren is proudly affiliated with Wishlist Travel Collective. That means stronger relationships with the suppliers I book, access to preferred partners, and a network of trusted travel professionals who help me give your family the best experience possible. Working together still feels the same: one person who knows your family, planning your trip like it's her own.
