Mollie + Adam : Epcot Flower and Garden Festival Wedding

September 7, 2023 by Jensey 6 Comments

Mollie first found us on Carly Morgan’s original wedding blog back in 2009(!!!!!)

She’s been a follower for a looooong time. Every now and then, a post will show up in my timeline that we shared 10+ years ago, only to see that Mollie commented on it! <3

Mollie and Adam met in 2017 on Bumble. She asked what his favorite Disney movie was and why, and they were together ever since. I love this quote from Mollie describing the proposal: “On our annual jaunt to WDW he proposed to me on the porch at Nomad Lounge while I was barefoot enjoying a good cocktail. He incorporated one of my favorite TV scenes (Boy Meets World when Eric ‘proposes’ to Topanga and pulls out a handkerchief to kneel on) and themed it all to the movie ‘UP.'”

They planned their wedding during Flower and Garden Festival at Epcot so there were flowers everywhere without having to supply them herself! They were married in the Italy Pavilion but in front of one of the shops; we’d never done a ceremony there and I *looooooved* the rich backdrop it provided!! Every detail from this wedding reflected something about Mollie and Adam. Her shoes were hand painted by a friend, showing one of their cats at Nomad Lounge where their proposal took place, and another cat at Epcot. Adam and his groomsmen each had a Lego mini fig in their boutonniere. Mollie’s bouquet had flowers made out of pages from a Harry Potter book and a hidden Lego Leia! <3

Two children who Mollie used to nanny were the flower girl and ring bearer- but that’s not all! Mollie’s dress she wore as a child at her first communion fit her flower girl perfectly, so that’s the dress she wore at the wedding!!

Thanks to this team for making it such a special one :)

As soon as the wedding was over, Mollie and Adam’s guests remained seated while they did their first dance and parent dances up at the altar. The backdrop was maybe a liiiiiitte more photogenic this way than if they’d done it over at Ariel’s, where their reception took place. :)
Favorite. :)
So sad I think this was my last wedding with sweet Rachel on the DFTW team! <3
Mollie and Adam, I’m sad it’s over, but I know this is truly the beginning of a beautiful friendship!! We love y’all! <3

Kristyna + Robert : Disney Wedding

August 31, 2023 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Today sure feels like a good day to share a Grand Floridian wedding. Don’t you agree?

Kristyna and Robert were high school sweethearts. Life led them down different paths, but they finally found their way back to each other. <3

You just can’t beat the view of a Castle while getting ready on your wedding day!

“Kristyna, I’ve wished for this day for 29 years.” Ohhhhh my heart. <3

First look magic :)

We loved being a part of this Disney wedding, especially knowing the special place it has in their hearts- Robert used to work as a chef at Narcoosee’s!

I meeeeeeeeeean… <3

Off to their reception where there were a couple more surprises in store! :)

 

“Kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
It’s been a long, long time
Haven’t felt like this, my dear
Since I can’t remember when
It’s been a long, long time

You’ll never know how many dreams
I’ve dreamed about you
Or just how empty they all seemed without you
So kiss me once, then kiss me twice
Then kiss me once again
It’s been a long, long time.” –Kitty Kallen

Never get tired of these surprise cakes! <3

Kristyna and Robert, we wish you and your families the happiest of ever afters!! :)

Jill + Jon : Sea Breeze Point Ceremony and Reception at The Attic

August 27, 2023 by Jensey Leave a Comment

We have officially reached *that* part of the year that I somehow manage to block out the rest of the year.

Florida in August.

To my fellow Floridians fighting their way through this humidity, you can do this. We can do this. It’s only going to get better from here!! :)

I’m continuing to slooooowly chisel through my wedding backlog, and today is all about Jill and Jon!

Jill and Jon had a first look shortly after this one, but it was her first look with her sweet father that got me!!

… I mean… <3

Jill has taken this photo with her nieces every time they come to Disney! :)

I love a good Sea Breeze Point ceremony! <3

Thank you so much for having us, Jill and Jon!! <3
