Carissa + Travis : Haunted Mansion Themed Disney Wedding

October 18, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Thank goodness for this Haunted Mansion-themed wedding and all the spoopy Halloween content it’s going to give my Instagram feed the next couple weeks!! <3

Carissa and Travis met at work as EMTs. In fact, until this summer, they were partners for 12 hour shifts on an ambulance. <3

Their friendship grew from a shared love of Disney and it ended up being their first vacation together! Travis even proposed to Carissa on The Haunted Mansion: specifically in the attic, in front of the bride. <3

This wedding was special for so many reasons:

– Haunted Mansion table linens (be still my Magic Kingdom-loving heart!)
– A bride in glasses!
– Our first Epcot dessert party with the new Epcot Forever fireworks!
– A bride in Steamboat Willie slippers!
– A fun meetup with another Disney bride and all of HER wedding vendors who are our pals, too!
– The knowledge that with our EMT couple, I could pass out at any moment and be perfectly taken care of!

I could go on and on, but without further ado, enjoy a peek into Travis and Carissa’s day! :)

Dear Santa- take note of these, please! :)

The inside of Travis’s ring had the coordinates to The Haunted Mansion, where he proposed to Carissa. <3

Operation make Dad cry- check!

 

This. First. Look. <3 I know I always state my love for these, but Travis fighting back tears (unsuccessfully btw) just gives me all the feels. :)

Fellow Disney nerds- how appropriate is that pattern on her parasol?! <3

Carissa made friends with another fellow Disney bride with the same wedding date and venue so we got to have a little meet up! :)

Which meant I got a selfie with my Disney wedding planner bests! <3

Every detail was so thought out. <3

One of my most most favorites. <3

Thank you for stopping by at the most perfect moment, Monorail Green! <3

Carissa and Travis, we can’t wait to share the rest in the coming weeks!! Thank you for letting us be a part of your amazing day!! :)

 

Huge thanks to our vendor team!!

Mari + Kris : Luau Pointe Wedding at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort

September 3, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Mari first contacted me on Instagram about possibly shooting a cake smash session for her daughter.
Her email thread to Nate is my favorite- Going from a potential cake smash session in May, to no- let’s do a family session in August! But let’s get wedding pricing info just in case. And then finally, hey- Let’s just do this wedding thing early- Are you free for that instead? ;)
I am *so* happy Mari and Kris found us and that Nate got to shoot the most lovely, intimate wedding at Luau Pointe at Disney’s Polynesian Resort. It was the first wedding we’d photographed there and just seeing the photos is (almost) enough to make this snowy-mountain-loving-girl consider throwing on a lei and having a vow renewal under this majestic tree!!

You know how much I loooooove when our couples get ready together!!

Love this photo Nate took of their daughter’s wedding day ensemble. <3

Getting their little ready! <3

Mari was channeling ALL the Moana vibes and I’m here for it!!

Ummm how to spot our ideal bride? Mari took a tiny stumble during her walk down the aisle and was allllll giggles about it! <3

Look. At. This. Venue. Y’all! <3

Looooove this family portrait!!! :)

Remember the scene in Moana with the Kakamora?! LOOK AT THEM ON THIS CAAAAAAKE!!!! AHHHHHH! <3 <3 <3

Mari and Kris, thank you for letting Nate be a part of your day!! He had so much fun!! :)
