Nickie Cooper

Childless Millennial. Disney Adult. Slytherin.

Hi!  My name is Nickie Cooper and for me, the most fun part of a vacation is the planning.  I became a Disney fanatic later in life, taking my first trip when I was 25.  Since then, I have enjoyed several more visits to The Mouse, a Hauntingly (not-so) Spooky cruise to Castaway Cay, and more!  My home park is Walt Disney World and while I specialize in solo Disney trips, I’m experienced in planning for both the young and young at heart!  I find enjoyment and satisfaction in ensuring every detail is just right and that your trips pack as much magic as possible!  Email me at nickie1414@yahoo.com to start planning your next adventure!

My greatest joy is to help families create lifelong memories together

I have loved Disney for my entire life! Some of my fondest memories are with my family at Disney World and Universal Studio. When my husband and I decide to take our kids on vacation, Disney World is usually our go-to destination! I’ve been helping friends and family plan their trips for years and I’m always the one in charge when we go! Brandy reached out to me about joining the team at Wishes and Wands Travel and it took me months to make the leap, but I’m so happy I did! Helping my clients plan Disney and Universal trips come almost as easy as breathing. I spend parts of my day in what I call my “theme park bubble” and it brings me the greatest joy to help families create lifelong memories together. I can’t wait to expand my travel agent knowledge to better serve my clients!
