About Karie Bedwell

Team Lead – Theme Parks, Travel Advisor

Welcome! My love for travel began at an early age with cherished family vacations, and it continued to grow as I took my own children on their first magical Disney vacations. Since beginning my travel career with Magnolia Travel Group in 2018, I have fully embraced my passion as a Disney adult. As the team lead for theme parks at Magnolia Travel Group, I specialize in creating magical experiences for families. In addition to Disney, I have a deep love for cruises and all-inclusive vacations, with a special fondness for destinations like Jamaica, Mexico, and other beautiful islands.

I am married to my husband, Justin, and together we have two amazing children, Ella and Maddox. Our family, which includes our cat, Stormy, and our dog, Jasmine, lives in Columbia, MS. I am dedicated to helping families create their dream vacations and planning unforgettable honeymoons to exotic locations. Let’s make your travel dreams come true together!
