Danielle + Chris : Cinderella Wedding at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort Part I

August 2, 2018 by Jensey Leave a Comment

I could write the longest love letter to this couple, but to be completely honest, I just want to get these photos up asap. :)

I will say Danielle is the embodiment of a true Disney princess- Kind, loyal, gorgeous, and a truly sparkly personality, which is fitting, considering the wedding dress she chose! We loved our vendor team today, from Patricia LeJeune of LeJeune Artistry to Charles Miles dj-ing to Mary and Jamie of Key Moment Films. The whole day was absolutely perfect, and I cannot wait a single second more before sharing the most epic entrance photo ever- Thanks to Lumiere serenading their guests to “Be Our Guest” and a confetti cannon! <3

I had to. <3

I looooooved this moment! Chris snuck through the living room of Danielle’s suite to the bedroom with his eyes shut so Nate could shoot getting ready photos, and Danielle totally snuck a peek! :)

Her dad’s first look <3

This pin has made it around about a million Disney brides! :)

We were suuuuuuper bummed when the rain just didn’t let up for their first look, but cue photographer happy tears when Danielle was totally down with doing it under an umbrella! We’ve never done a first look here, and it was so special with the Wedding Pavilion in the background :)

My two favorites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rainy day first looks FTW! <3

This. Munchkin. Don’t forget to look for her in the next photo, too! ;)

Continued from   P A R T   O N E !

I cannot, lol :)

What our brides see…

… What Nate sees! <3

When the veil decides to run away! :)

On to my favorite ballroom- The American Adventure Rotunda! Well… On for these guys and Nate and our assistant Kim who took over for me! :)

Have you ever seen a better entrance in your whole entire life?! Confetti cannons are always a good idea, but I’m in love with this photo Nate got when it was just Danielle and Chris on the dance floor! <3

How to spot a professional dancer: How high her wedding dress flies when she twirls :)

Nate got to meet Danielle and Chris a couple days later for more portraits since the rain had other plans. This meant a mama/Ollie Mickey waffle date, and Ollie got to meet his first real life princess when the shoot was done! :) Danielle and Chris, we love y’all and hope to see you again soon!! :)

Meredith + Chad : Cinderella Wedding at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort Part I

May 26, 2018 by Jensey Leave a Comment

I’m gonna be honest: This was a really, really, REALLY hard wedding to narrow down photos for, y’all! I mean… Gorgeous couple! TWO gorgeous wedding gowns! Emotions! Bright colors! Cinderella’s coach! THREE special guests! A reception with a view of Spaceship Earth! So please forgive me in advance for breaking this one in two, because there are over 115 photos from this day I’m sharing!!

HUGE thank you’s to Stacie at Fairytale Hair and Makeup, Lisa at DFTW, Reverend Kevin Knox, Charles Miles, and our friends at SwitzerWorld for making this wedding a favorite of the year! :)

For the past 13 years, Meredith’s family made an 8 hour drive once or twice a year to stay at the Beach Club Resort. Seeing as this is truly her 2nd home, Meredith and Chad knew a Disney wedding was for them. :)  And I mean… There’s nothing like waking up on your wedding day to the view of monorails whizzing by. <3

BOTH of Meredith’s wedding dresses were designed by Hayley Paige. They were both so unique. <3

Stacie with Fairytale Hair and Makeup was on hand to make sure Meredith was as flawless as possible. <3

THAT. BEADING. Y’ALL. <3

I looooooved the little hints of violet tulle in her dress.

Those first looks when they *both* cry kill me. <3

Nate with filmmaker extraordinaire, Joe of SwitzerWorld!

Meredith and Chad surprised their guests by leaving the ceremony by carriage and returning in a Rolls!

Nate’s photo magic- Love, love, love this one. <3

Head here for part two!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
