    The dramatic arc of a story usually needs some kind of conflict or obstacle to be overcome, to give it dramatic tension. The protagonists need to struggle, in order to earn their success. This has been the formula for drama since the Greeks and there's something to be said for it :)

    You might think about introducing that, between Acts II & III - something gets in the way of their endeavours. Otherwise, it reads like a bland but pleasant dream.
