Krystal + Ben : Disney Cruise Line Wedding on Castaway Cay Part I

August 13, 2013 by Jensey 6 Comments

So now that Nate and I have now photographed a couple Disneyland weddings, just a few Walt Disney World weddings, and one very special vow renewal at Disney’s Aulani Resort in Hawaii, it only seemed fitting that we shoot our first wedding on the Disney Cruise Line! Krystal and Ben’s wedding trip took place on the Dream, one of the newest in Disney’s impressive fleet. I loved this boat so hard and I’m already begging Nate for a repeat voyage- 3 days just wasn’t enough! :)

There was no shortage of photo opportunities, that’s for sure. I don’t think we’ve ever spent so long photographing a wedding dress! :)

This chair and Cinderella mosaic was one of the first things I saw when we boarded the Dream, and I immediately knew I wanted this shot! :)

I still don’t know how we managed to fit Krystal, her parents, four bridesmaids, and two photographers in this stateroom!

Another wedding day first for us: Scuba divers behind the wedding ceremony! :)

I love when a friend or family member of the bride and groom officiates the wedding ceremony. Krystal’s sweet step dad did a wonderful job.

Like our other Rosen Shingle Creek couples, Veronica and Jamie opted to have their reception in the Butler Ballroom. It’s such a cool space, because your guests enjoy the cocktail hour upstairs and then come down for the party!

Another Fantasyland-er pal, Cory, was a true gentleman and handed out towels to the freezing  bridal party as they got out of the water. :) Veronica and Jamie, we love you guys and are so happy you picked us! Cory, Breanna, and Veronica- Love you guys so much. Fantasyland wooooooooooo!
