Arielle Ridolfino – New York Disney Travel Advisor

Hello and Welcome! My name is Arielle Ridolfino!

Ever since I was little Disney has been a “part of my world.” Not only did I grow up right when The Little Mermaid was released, but my mom has been a lover of Disney since the start of The Mickey Mouse Club. I still have memories from my family’s first visit to Walt Disney World: the character breakfasts, meeting Mickey for the first time, getting every character autograph, enjoying every ride, spending time at the resort pool, sitting on Main Street watching the Electrical Parade while hugging my new Tigger plush.

My admiration and passion for all things Disney only grew from there. I watched every film, purchased every soundtrack, stayed up to date with Disney Channel, always had to stop into the Disney Store when we went to the local mall, and always chose Walt Disney World as our spring break vacation. Then, as an adult, I applied and was accepted into the Disney College Program in 2011. Working with the mouse and helping to create the magic for other families was one of the most thrilling experiences of my life. During my program I was able to experience everything Walt Disney World has to offer throughout the year: Flower and Garden Festival, Food and Wine Festival, Festival of the Holidays, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party (my personal favorite), Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, New Year’s Eve in each Epcot country, and every major holiday.

When I first met my husband, Disney was the common denominator that brought us together. Within our first year of dating, we visited Walt Disney World over the New Year’s Eve holiday. Ever since, we have gone back every year (except for 2020), experienced two sailings with Disney Cruise Line, and even had our dream wedding at the Pavilion this past October! We recently moved into our first home in Upstate New York with our three dogs: Mocha, Bean, and Violet.

What I realized while planning our magical wedding is that I crave helping others plan their perfect Disney vacation. From figuring out which dates work best for both their schedule and budget, to finding the perfect resort, deciding on the best dining options for their diet preferences, curating the ideal itineraries, and ensuring they will make memories that will last a lifetime.
