Jenna and Liam’s ceremony location got moved around more times than I remember because of all the construction going on at the Animal Kingdom. I loved where they ended up!

Remember their Magic Band proposal? I loved how they incorporated it with their signs for each food served.

I was surprised the guests weren’t prepared for the cold temperatures- The reception was at the base of Mount Everest, for goodness sake!

Oh, just a glow stick entrance into the reception. No big deal. ;)

TIM HOUSE! I met Tim ~18 years ago and he’s been a close family friend ever since, so it’s an extra special wedding when his smiling face is around! :)

Jenna was born October 23rd and is obsessed with 10:23, so that’s precisely when they scheduled their cake cutting. <3

Her maids of honor gave one of my all-time favorite toasts, complete with direct quotes from emails from Jenna talking about when she first met Liam. I laughed so hard I was crying! :)

Jenna + Liam : Disney’s Animal Kingdom Wedding Part I

March 9, 2015 by Jensey 4 Comments

It was a total surprise. Jenna received a message on Disney Company letterhead instructing her to report to Disney’s Boardwalk Inn for a magical moment. She assumed it had to do with her birthday later that week and headed to Sea Breeze Point. Jenna’s closest friends and family were waiting for her there, along with Liam, who asked if she was ready for the “next generation” of their lives together, along with a ring box made out of a custom Magic Band box, and painted bride and groom Magic Bands. It was one of the most thoughtful, creative proposals I’ve ever heard, and I cannot even imagine these two Disney obsessed cast members beginning their life together any other way.  (You can read the extended story here!)

I was so excited to finally see THE box!

Talk about a small world moment- I find out Jenna’s family and her bridesmaids are all from Winnetka, Illinois, and with some quick detective work, find out they all went to high school with my cousin, Jamie. What are the chances?!
