Disney Social Media Moms Celebration
A First Timer’s Experience
Being invited to the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration is quite an honor. After years of watching all the tweets, posts, and pictures of all the past Celebrations I was just beside myself to see the spectacular invitation in my inbox this past February. Now, being invited is just the beginning. There is cheering in the house, planning, shopping, packing and counting down to the fun. What is so unique about this social media influencers celebration is that you can bring your family along with you. Yes, you don’t have to get a million babysitters lined up and leave behind your loved ones, they are right there with you. Since our family travels as a pack this was just music to our ears! So we packed and I read everything I could to try to get a grasp on what would happen, but compared to what was about to take place, I did not have a clue!
Before we knew it, our family of five loaded headed to the airport to go from the east coast across the country to the west coast and have our very first family visit at Disneyland!
From the moment we arrived at the Disneyland Resort I kind of figured out why they called it a celebration! The Disney Social Media Moms Celebration check in was a party onto itself. We were introduced to new friends, had a chance to chat with great brands, already started learning about Disney brands and had a chance to visit with some amazing Disney characters. The care taken at the check in was first rate. Each family was given their a private cast member to go over the itinerary and answer any questions we may have had at that time. Maxine Clark and Donald Driver nearly bringing me to tears with there stories. They really taught me just how powerful a story can be. Leanne Jakubowski and Gary Buchanan kept us smiling in the meantime with their cheerfulness and antics! There are other highlights that I am saving for separate posts and they may or may not include Maleficent and more! My brain is spinning as I write this, just thinking about everything that took place during those four days on the west coast!
Our days were spent learning and listening to as powerhouse after powerhouse took the the stage. With too many to name in just one post, as just a sampling, we were inspired by. There were private parties, meet and greets, family fun, but there was more. There was friend making, there was a connection-an energy that I have not seen at many of the other conferences I have attended. There was learning and above all, there was inspiration! Although this post cannot include everything I wanted to just let you know about the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration as a whole. It’s more than a conference, it is truly a celebration.
Disclosure: No compensation was given for this post. I was an attendee at Disney Social Media Moms Celebration and given a deeply discounted rate to attend. All opinions are my own and honest. Contact me at ELGEorgia@aol.com or everywhere else as .@3decades3kids.
