Melanie + Brent : Epcot Germany Wedding

November 9, 2015 by Jensey 3 Comments

You know the story: Boy meets girl, boy wants to talk to girl because she once purchased a tux that used to belong to Orson Welles… <3

Melanie and Brent were hooked from that first conversation. With 10 years of being a Disney Store cast member and over 50 trips to Walt Disney World under her belt, Lake Buena Vista was the only sensible place to have their wedding. We’re so happy to have been brought along for the ride! :)

Starting our wedding day on a weekday before the sun rises? Ohhhhh, those Epcot weddings. <3

Dylan was so proud to give his momma away!

In lieu of a unity candle or sand ceremony, Melanie, Brent, and their bridal party made wishes and tossed coins in the fountain they were married in front of. <3

Still awake on the boat to their reception! ;)

Oh Melanie and Brent, we love y’all and wish you the best!!

Alexis + Rich : Orlando Florida Wedding

October 17, 2015 by Jensey 8 Comments

The morning after Katy and Nick’s wedding, we were on a plane to Orlando to photograph Alexis and Rich’s wedding the next morning. I told you wedding season has been a bit crazy! :)

This wedding was so colorful and happy. Alexis was so inspired by Erin and Rick’s wedding on our blog a few years back and added some of the same touches to her wedding day. I loved so many things about this wedding, but maybe these two details most of all! It’s so rare that we see a tea length wedding dress, and check out that bouquet!! Tara at Green Cycle Designs on Etsy made that out of recycled park maps!!

Fun fact : Flower girls are the best at putting on a bride’s shoes because they’re closer to the ground. ;)

Looooove that her girls wore seersucker! <3

Then it was on to their Small World-inspired wedding reception! <3

Alexis and Rich, we look forward to sharing more soon! <3

Lindsay and Jackie’s Engagement Session

Lindsay and Jackie’s Wedding Part I

Looks like it’s time to wrap up Lindsay and Jackie’s wedding week!

This is Bill, the organist at Disney’s Wedding Pavilion and one of our favorite faces of the DFTW team! :)

I love that their four legged kids were represented at the wedding. :)

Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavorite. This one has me itching to give our website galleries a serious overhaul this year.

Their reception was at Ariel’s.

Nate couldn’t remember their first dance song, but it looked happy! :)

Waaaaaah I am miiiiiissing! :(

Hands down our favorite Disney DJ, Charles Miles. Book him, Root DisBrides! <3

And while I layed in a hospital bed catching up on Girl Meets World, Nate photographed Lindsay and Jackie’s dessert party solo and did AMAZING. If I didn’t love shooting these events so often, I’d make Nate go on his own from now on! :)

You. Guys. <3

Lindsay and Jackie, we’re so excited to have you in our little Root Photography family! Hope to see you again soon!! :)
