Colleen + Chris : Disney Wish Wedding

by 1 Comment

Once upon a time, Chris and Colleen met as cast members working in Epcot Guest Relations! Chris planned the sweetest proposal, tying Colleen’s engagement ring to their dog’s collar while the movie they watched on their first date played (Christopher Guest’s Best in Show!) Their closest friends popped out of the kitchen to celebrate, champagne in hand. <3

Avid Disney Cruisers, they planned their wedding aboard the Disney Wish, and it was our largest one to date! They exchanged vows surrounded by supportive family members and some of the most joyful, energetic cast member friends! We love a VIP tour guide and guest relations wedding!! :)

I want to write forever but I also want these two to see *all* of their preview photos before boarding their HONEYMOON cruise today!!!

Colleen and Chris, we can’t thank you enough for letting us be a part of your day. Disney Cruise Line weddings are always a little extra special and our 10th definitely did not disappoint. Bon voyage!! :)

The Untangled Salon onboard the Disney Wish is one of my favorite spots on the ship; especially with those frying pan mirrors!!
 
First look magic!! :)
We love that Colleen and Chris chose to do a first look with their entire wedding party!

Colleen and Chris, we can’t thank you enough for bringing us onboard. Let us know when it’s time for your vow renewal!! ;)

IT IS HAPPENINGGGGG!! First blog post of the yearrrrr!!! *blows dust off blog*

First meeting on an app called MeetMe, Lianna and Bryan’s first messages began in the summer of 2016 and they haven’t stopped since. It was on a cruise with their families where Bryan caught Lianna completely by surprise and proposed at a beautiful restaurant. Lianna and Bryan were married at Disney’s Wedding Pavilion and then partied at Epcot’s American Adventure Rotunda, and they were the sweetest way to kick off our 2024 wedding season! :)
