Erin + Rick : Wedding Part I

July 19, 2011 by Jensey 12 Comments

We started Erin and Rick’s wedding day at the Animal Kingdom Lodge where the bride and groom were getting ready. I absolutely loved Erin’s simple J Crew wedding dress!

Writing a wedding day love note for her husband-to-be!

The ceremony was held at the Yacht Club Gazebo.

Gotta love a wedding with a “hidden Mickey!”

Suri Cruise’s look-alike was one of the cutest flower girls ever. :)

Turo strikes again!

I loved Erin’s streamer exit! So fun and colorful. :)

The guests headed over to Disney’s Boardwalk Resort’s Croquet Lawn for their reception.

Our past bride Cassie spent countless hours helping Erin with her unique details including these adorable table numbers.

Major high-fives to Shelley of Impressions for her amazing work.

Favorite. Cake. EVER!

I mean, seriously!

More juicy wedding details in part two!

It all started from a photo Nathan took of a hippo in Africa. We got an email from Erin saying she and our past bride Cassie saw this photo on our blog and it’s inspired the theme for her welcome party. Not only did he grace the invitations for the event, but he was lovingly named “Turo” and appeared in almost every detail. Meet Turo!

The custom cake topper Erin had made… Amazing down to the drool. ;)

Erin and Rick’s welcome dinner was held in the jaw-droppingly gorgeous Asante Suite at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. I felt like I was right back in Africa, except with a TV. And air conditioning. ;)

More adorable details :)

Each of her guests left with a custom Turo- I was totally jealous!

Love the view. :)

If you thought those details were amazing, just wait ’til their wedding coming up tomorrow! :)

Portrait Previews

As we get closer and closer to summer, Nathan and I are doing our best to squeeze in the rest of our portrait sessions before we break until the fall. :)

Anyway, here are some favorites from our most recent photo adventures:

Tricia and her gorgeous family from Nova Scotia… Tell me they don’t look like the poster family for the Boardwalk Resort! ;)

Meet Violet- The cutest baby that EVER lived. So… For the past year, just about, I’ve been completely content with waiting a long time to start a family. Just an hour with this little one, and all that went out the window! Just look at her! Did I mention she knows sign language? And Monday was her 1st birthday? *Swooooooon!*

Just a few hours later, we met up with the completely adorable Erin and Rick at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. :) I’m beyond excited for their wedding!

Well, that’s what our week was like. How was yours? :)
