Meet Lauren
Hi, I am Lauren, and I am so excited to help you plan the vacation of your dreams!
I am a wife to my college boyfriend and mom to our two gorgeous girls. I live in New Jersey, grew up traveling, and have been exploring the world ever since — which has evolved into this passion project of mine, being a travel agent.
Walt Disney World has been a long-time love. Growing up watching all of the movies and visiting the parks with my family is a big part of my childhood. I also visited most of the domestic US as a child, including Disneyland and Hawaii. Through high school and into college, I ventured all over Europe and studied abroad in Australia.
After meeting my husband, we traveled to Disney and throughout Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean. And now with our girls, we are always up for an adventure. I hope I can assist you in your dream vacay!

What Lauren's Clients Are Saying
Lauren Forbes, our Second Star Wishes Travel Specialist, was absolutely wonderful. I am a first time cruiser, so I didn't know what to expect. Lauren helped every step of the way and answered every question in a timely fashion. I have no hesitation in recommending Lauren and hope to use her for our future cruises. She is great.

Wow! My family just returned from our first trip to Disney World and we can't stop talking about it. We had a blast!! My goal was to have everything go as smooth as possible so that my husband would enjoy it as well and be willing to go back. Well with Lauren's help, we did it! He's been telling everyone how great it was.
Honestly, Lauren was SO much help from the beginning. She was always there to answer questions and give her recommendations, all while listening to the things that we said we wanted and that were important to us. She got us all of our dining reservations we hoped for and saved me the stress and pressure. She also was able to snag my daughter an appointment at the Bippity Boppity Boutique which I have heard is very difficult to do these days. My daughter LOVED this experience.
From the time we arrived to the time we left, everything went so smoothly. Lauren even left us a little treat at the front desk. I will 100% be using Lauren again in the near future. Trust me, you want someone to help you plan and make it the least stressful as possible! Thank you, Lauren and Second Star Wishes!!
