If you’ve spent any time scrolling Disney Instagram, lurking in theme park Facebook groups, or standing in line for a ride at Magic Kingdom, chances are you’ve seen one: a loud, colorful button-down covered in your favorite characters—and someone proudly saying, “It’s a RSVLTS!” Welcome to the wonderfully chaotic, hype-fueled world of RSVLTS. What is RSVLTS, anyway? RSVLTS (pronounced “Roosevelts” like President Teddy) is a New Jersey-based apparel brand founded by two Seton Hall grads with a simple mission: turn pop culture into wearable art. From the beginning, the brand leaned hard into nostalgia—think cartoons, movies, sports, and cult classics—and paired it with their signature fabric: KUNUFLEX, a stretchy, breathable material that feels more like athletic wear than a stiff button-down. The result? Shirts that look like something your inner child would design… but are comfortable enough to wear all day at a theme park in July. The magic of […]

Our house is a Chicago Bears football household through and through so we had already planned a trip in January not thinking the Bears would still be alive and playing. Imagine our excitement when our already-planned January Disney trip just happened to line up with a playoff run. After years of waiting, the Bears went on an incredible winning streak and suddenly found themselves in the NFC Divisional Round against the Los Angeles Rams, right in the middle of our vacation. Of course, there was no question. We had to find the perfect place to watch! Tucked inside Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort, Rix Sports Bar & Grill turned out to be exactly what we were looking for. We walked in without a reservation and were pleasantly surprised to only wait about 15 minutes before grabbing seats at the bar. The place was buzzing with fellow Bears fans, instantly creating that […]

3 Days, Endless Fun — Why a Weekend Cruise Is Totally Worth It! Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I really need a vacation… but I just don’t have the time”? Between work schedules, family commitments, and everyday life, taking a full week away can feel almost impossible. But what if you don’t need a full week to recharge? Sometimes a few days at sea—with great food, entertainment, and friends—is exactly what you need. Some of my team and I recently took a quick weekend cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas and it reminded me of how much fun you can pack into just a few days. From the moment we boarded, it felt like the world’s biggest weekend had officially begun. So how much fun did we pack into our three-night cruise? Quite a lot! During our weekend getaway we spent time: Relaxing by the pools with […]

When most people think of Disney, images of Mickey Mouse, castles, and family-friendly attractions might come to mind. But Disney isn’t just for kids! For those looking to add a little more spirited adventure to their Disney experience, La Cava del Tequila in Epcot offers an incredible tequila tasting experience that’s perfect for the Disney adults looking to sip, savor, and learn. A Hidden Gem in Epcot Tucked away inside the Mexico Pavilion at Epcot’s World Showcase, La Cava del Tequila is an intimate and secluded lounge known for its extensive tequila collection, handcrafted margaritas, and expert mixologists.

Going to Walt Disney World on an adults-only trip is an experience that must be enjoyed by all Disney fans. While you may miss the children for a few moments, there are some great experiences that you must try with your significant other or best friends. Here are some of my favorite activities on an adults-only trip. Jellyrolls – A dueling piano bar located on the Boardwalk, Jellyrolls is the place to hang out with your friends and enjoy top entertainment. With 2 piano virtuosos taking requests from the audience, grab a drink, make a request, and sing along for an evening filled with fun. Be sure to get there early for a seat as the bar fills to standing by 9pm each night and bring along small bills to give the players for those musical requests. Disney’s Tours - Touring Disney’s parks behind the scenes allows guests to see […]

Taking a Disney Cruise doesn’t mean the entire cruise is about kids. Many adults sail as couples and for girls’ getaways. But for the family cruisers, adults may want a little adult time while the kids enjoy the kids' clubs. On the Disney Wish, there are many locations where adults can grab a drink, have a lively conversation with fellow passengers, or just kick back and relax with a cup of coffee and a book. Areas that adults can enjoy their own time: • Keg & Compass – Deck 5 - Grab a brew in this maritime pub while catching live sports on one of the tv’s. • Luna – Deck 4 & 5, which is the event/entertainment space onboard the Disney Wish.

Virgin Voyages launched their first cruise ship in the US in October 2021 and they have set the bar high for adult only cruising experiences. Virgin is different than other cruise lines for a variety of reasons. For me, it is a very laid-back environment that gives you the feel of sailing on a yacht vs a cruise ship. Again, it is adult only for anyone 18+, which provides a wonderful opportunity to reconnect. What’s included in the cruise fare? • All dining locations are included • No surprise costs at the end of your cruise and gratuities are included • Free internet onboard • Fitness classes • Soft drinks (Tea, filter coffee, non-pressed juices, water, and sparkling water, and Sodas) Dining and Lounges • The dining experience is beyond the typical cruise line with 10 different eateries all included. Menus have been created by Michelin star-rated chefs for experiences […]
