Travel that becomes
part of who you are.

Not every journey leaves a mark. We design the ones that do — unhurried, deeply considered, and built entirely around you.

Erin Marie
About Erin Marie

Our legacy must be lived
before it’s left.

I craft journeys where intention meets indulgence — road-cycling through vineyards before that perfect glass of wine, watching snowflakes fall from a mountain spa, or kissing sleeping children goodnight after a perfectly orchestrated Disney day. These aren’t just trips. They’re the moments that become stories, and the stories that shape a lifetime.

With nearly 20 years of military and medical experience behind me, I bring both the spirit of adventure and a deep commitment to safety to every detail. Because for me, peace of mind is the ultimate luxury.

From multigenerational celebrations to intimate escapes, my goal is simple: to make your travel safe, seamless, and so deeply personal that you can focus entirely on what matters most — living your legacy, now.

Thoughtful Trip Design

Every journey begins with understanding how you like to travel — the pace, the places, the experiences that matter. We design itineraries that feel like you, not like everyone else.

Access Beyond the Obvious

Our network of preferred partners means the experiences we create exist outside the public-facing world — private, rare, and designed for you alone.

Present Every Step

When something shifts, you have someone who knows your trip intimately and is quietly present to keep everything moving seamlessly.

The Process

Designing a remarkable journey takes intention, not just logistics. Here is how we build yours.

01

The Conversation

Every great journey begins here. We talk through what you’re imagining — where you’ve been, what you loved, what this trip needs to feel like.

02

The Design

Hotels chosen for your aesthetic, not just their star rating. A pace that feels natural. Experiences you won’t find on any list.

03

The Details

Reservations confirmed, transportation coordinated, preferred amenities arranged — everything handled before you pack.

04

The Journey

Then comes the best part. You go live it. Fully present — for the meals, the views, the unexpected moments that become the stories you’ll tell forever.

Investment

Your time is the most
precious currency of all.

Our planning fees are an investment in hours returned to you — spent anticipating your journey, not planning it. Every tier reflects a different level of design, and all of them come with the same standard: nothing less than exceptional.

No planning fee

You’ve already decided where you’re going — and you know exactly what you want reserved. A specific property, a cruise departure, a guided tour. What you want now is the assurance that it’s handled beautifully — and that you’re getting every advisor-exclusive benefit along the way.

Perfect for

Known properties, specific cruise departures, or set guided tours. Airfare & transfers available as add-on if desired — cost varies by ticket type.

Client Stories

What travelers say
about their journeys.

In their own words.

“

I’ve visited eighty countries, lived in eight, and normally I would plan my own trip. However, time is not a luxury I have — and when you travel internationally with three small kids, you need to get it right. Erin Marie got it right, and I’ll never plan my own trip again. She planned a kid-friendly but luxury experience across seven days in Great Britain. Bottom line — you can trust Erin Marie with your family, your budget, and your memories.

“

Think about it: for legal questions, taxes, hair styling, interior design, etc. most people can say “I’ve got a guy (or gal) for that”… now I know that applies for travel design too. Erin will be my “gal” for this for years to come.

Erin was wonderful. Everything exceeded our expectations. She was always checking our flights, sending the most up-to-date information, and made sure every detail was handled. I will definitely use Erin again.

Erin was great to work with — very responsive, easy to communicate with, and secured us the perfect accommodations that fit our style and budget. Completely stress-free. We’d absolutely use her again.

Jamie F. ·  Las Vegas
“

Erin was accessible, flexible and more than accommodating to work with, each step of the way. She was able to understand what we wanted in our trip, make it happen, and more! Highly recommend using her services for Disney and beyond!
