(Continued from Mindy and Tim’s California Adventure Engagement Session and Downtown Disney Rehearsal Dinner posts!)
Mindy and Tim’s wedding was our first-ever at the Disneyland Hotel and we were super excited to work with the Disneyland wedding team again. Mindy had the most amazing room to get ready in, and I love that she was able to overlook the Rose Court Garden where her ceremony would be in just a few hours.
Her headboard had light up fireworks on it! :)
From what I understand, Tara Fontana is the Patricia LeJeune of the west!
The story of how Mindy found her wedding dress is one of my favorites- She spotted it in the window of a local thrift shop and bought it for a whopping $15! Mindy had a seamstress put in the corset back, shorten the skirt, add some tulle, and voila! Her dream dress. :)
Hair and make-up ran pretty late, so I felt awful rushing Mindy through what should have been the most relaxing part of the day- portrait time! This is one of my favorite photos from the day- Mindy decided she wanted to reverse the typical first look so Tim walked up to her and not the other way around. I love the flowers all around her!
Mindy made her own flowers which you can purchase in her Fairy Tale Floral Shop here on Etsy. :)
Married!
Mindy planned her wedding down to the tiniest detail- Even the pens they used to sign their marriage license!
Off in their carriage to the reception! Those photos to come tomorrow. :)

Mindy and Tim’s wedding was so beautiful! I love the story of how she found her dress and how everything worked out with her decor and all of her details. That reverse First Look picture of her by herself is so adorable. I love the idea and thought it was so perfect for them. There are so many favorites here, but I think the one that stands out the most to me is the one of Mindy smiling back at Tim at their ceremony.
P.S. That’s too funny about you comparing Tara to Patricia. I guess you’re right. I wonder how many more parallel vendors we can think of. :)

Aww, thanks for the etsy shop shout-out! I love that we did the reverse first look, because that picture of me standing on the grass waiting for Tim is one of my favorites. And thank you Hope and Victoria for your kind words about our wedding!
