Jamie and Vince. <3

We knew there wouldn’t much light after their sunset ceremony for portraits, and we knew they didn’t want a first look. It was the first time in a while that a timeline has made me so nervous, and praying to the weather Gods to at least give us a clear night! Our prayers were answered and their wedding evening was absolutely perfect. :)

This dressss! It even had a skirt that Jamie tied on for the ceremony to make the silhouette a little more traditional ballgown, and then she was able to take it off before the reception and have a completely different look!

Jamie’s gift to Vince for him to share with his groomsmen. <3

Disney couples pay attention! Connecting rooms mean more photo time because Nate and I can just float between the two rooms. And we can get cute getting ready photos like this! <3

Jamie’s bridesmaids seeing her in her dress for the first time! :)

I mean just look at that smize while coming over the bridge! Be still my photographer heart! <3

Then it was on to our second home last year- The American Adventure Rotunda! <3

Jamie and Vince, thank you for having us and for one of my favorite Root selfies ever!! <3

Alexis + Miranda : Light Pink and Gold Princess Rainy Wedding at the Grand and American Adventure Rotunda

If you’re a loyal blog reader, you *may* recognize Alexis and Miranda from their Disney Springs engagement session with Nate last year! Remember this cute moment?!

Anyway, since editing those photos, I’ve been so excited to photograph their wedding daaaaay! And it finally came and I cannot wait to share photos. Here we gooooo! :)

The girls got ready in the Grand Floridian Villas. Alexis and Miranda had their hair and makeup done together, but split up when it came time to get dressed!

I spy with my little eye… <3

One shoe from each bride. ;)

Alexis requested her dress be photographed with the Mary Poppins fountain in their lobby and I was mooooore than happy to oblige! <3

First look time!!! As you’ll soon find out, their day was full of rain and tornado warnings (no.. seriously!) but I’m so happy we got a break from the sprinkles for this moment! :)

Then they did separate first looks with their fathers, and this one of Alexis with her dad just makes my eyes well up immediately!

And then THE moment I’ll never forget. Ever. The photos you see below will forever be burned into my wedding memories as long as I live.

It all started out well enough… We got word that awful weather was on its way so we had cut portraits shorts and get our brides in Cinderella’s Coach *immediately.* And we did…

Hooray! What a happy, special time! And then….

… Y’all, it was a MONSOON. I’ve never seen anything like it! As soon as their bums hit that velvet seat, the skies opened up and this happened! I’m so happy they had umbrellas to block the openings from sideways rain! But I mean is it just me or is it still a little magical?! <3

That poor driver!!

Don’t worry, Alexis and Miranda made it safe and sound to their ceremony at the Wedding Pavilion! :)

Alexis and Miranda’s officiant was Renee from A Lovely Ceremony, which meant their ceremony was unique! Instead of a unity candle, they opted to have a lock ceremony! An iron tree wall hanging sat on an easel with a lock on it. The lock is a one-time use lock with no key to symbolize the commitment they made. :)
