There are weddings we love, weddings we really love, and then weddings that when editing, make me think, “Oh, this might be my favorite Disney wedding EVER.”

Nicole and Michael’s day was that wedding for me. Nicole has all the makings of your quintessential Disney princess. She’s kind, gorgeous, and though I can’t confirm it, I’m pretty sure a team of blue birds must dress her every morning. Michael was an absolute sweetheart, and it was so completely evident to everyone around how much he adores Nicole.

We had a dream team of vendors, from us (duh), to Tyler of Beyond Videography, and a magical team of fairy godmothers from Ciro’s Hair Pavilion in NJ who flew down to do hair and make-up! :)

They did an amazing job- Not once, but twice did I hear random little girls gasp and tell their mom “Princess Jasmine is getting married!”

When I pulled photos for their blog post, my heart couldn’t narrow down any less than 90 to share. So, this is a surprise two-parter. (Sorry, Nicole!!) But I’m just that in love with this sweet couple. ❤

Nicole and Michael, I can never thank you enough for letting us be a part of it all. We so hope these photos make you happy!!! :)

Nicole said that for years, she’s looked for an ornate copy of The Princess Bride to put on her bookshelf. Michael to the rescue with the perfect wedding morning surprise! :)

Nate posing these slippers like “real” shoes for this photo made my heart swoon!! :)

Is it weird to love a wedding dress so much you want to marry it? Good. :)

First look love. <3

And then my favorite wedding moment of 2016 happened: Nicole sat on the floor in her big, magic gown (did you see that bow?! Magic!!) in front of the Grand Floridian’s Christmas tree and she and Michael exchanged their wedding gifts.

Blue-box smile! <3

What better day to post this sneak peek than on Bonnie’s birthday!

Bonnie was a college friend of Nate’s, and she and Alec were married at Casa Feliz. All day was a breeze to photograph, from Bonnie getting ready at the stunning Alfond Inn to their ceremony at Winter Park’s Casa Feliz, a venue we love so much we almost got married there ourselves!

We started the morning with Bonnie and her girls getting ready, my favorite part being when she and Alec exchanged these little journals they filled for each other with reasons they want to marry each other. :)

One of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken. <3

M A R R I E D ! <3

Bonnie’s whole wedding day was filled with such gorgeous vintage touches, even all the bridesmaids looked as though they’d stepped right out of The Great Gatsby. Her wedding bouquet was a brooch bouquet Bonnie and her mother made, and even their cake was dripping in brooches!

First dance love. Happy birthday, Bonnie! We can’t wait to share the rest in the coming weeks! :)
