Vanessa + Kevin | Roger Williams Botanical Center Wedding in Providence, RI

October 5, 2025 by Jensey Leave a Comment

About 15 years ago, Vanessa and Kevin met through mutual friends Jenn and Kevin. Jenn and Kevin were dating at the time; Vanessa was Jenn’s roommate, and Kevin was their unofficial roommate

Kevin joined the group from time to time and Vanessa and I instantly clicked with each other. They were Best Man and Maid of Honor at Jenn and Kevin’s wedding in Walt Disney World.

After the wedding, Kevin planned a trip to Death Valley with a friend. When he posted about it online, Vanessa commented that it was one of her favorite places too, so she joined in on that part of the trip. They spent a couple of days catching up, realized that things felt different than in years past, and proceeded to text nearly every day for a year. They returned to Joshua Tree a year later, shortly before Vanessa had been planning to move back to the East Coast, admitted that they had feelings for each other, and decided to become a couple!!

Nate was so excited to fly to Providence for their wedding. Not only to hang with Jenn and Kevin again, but also to have an excuse to visit somewhere COLD! ❄

Shakera + Kerwin | Grand Floridian Wedding

We thought this wedding would never come!! :)

After a hurricane caused them to reschedule their date, Shakera and Kerwin were finally able to have their dream wedding at Walt Disney World!

We had the privilege of working this one alongside our videographer bestie Kimberly of Heart Happy Films.

An Animal Kingdom welcome party (complete with a Kilimanjaro Safaris ride mix-in for their guests) was the most fun way to kick off a memorable wedding weekend!
