Katharina + Erhard : Epcot Canada Wedding

May 17, 2016 by Jensey 6 Comments

These two. <3

Katharina and Erhard came all the way from Germany for their Epcot Canada wedding! Two of the sweetest people we’ve met, on their engagement session they brought two mugs Katharina made for us inspired by Carl and Ellie’s mailbox. On their wedding day, they hand wrote thank you notes to each vendor, and sent us home with two huge beer steins filled with German candy. Even on her wedding day, Katharina was thinking of everyone around her, and it’s so easy to see why Erhard fell in love with her.

Their wedding day was so sweet and intimate, the only guest in attendance was their best friend, Jenny. Epcot weddings are always super special… There’s nothing like an empty park to yourself to amplify the adrenaline for your wedding! Every detail of their day was so thought out and perfectly executed, from Katharina’s bouquet she handmade herself to the tear-inducing “Ellie badge” moment during the ceremony, to their first dance. Did I mention these two would give the pros from “Dancing with the Stars” a run for their money?! I think my favorite moment was at the finale of Illuminations- We’d run them around for different vantage points for the fireworks, when in the last 10 seconds, they spontaneously started dancing and ended in the perfect pose at the final “boom” of the fireworks.

Katharina and Erhard, we love y’all so much and are so thankful for our new friendship. We so hope you enjoy these photos as much as we enjoyed taking them! :)

And a very special thanks to the vendor team who made this wedding a dream! Kalie from About Face, our fairy godmother officiant Renee Silverman, Beyond Videography, and of course, Nicole from Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings- We couldn’t have done it without y’all! <3

The only thing better than connecting rooms? Suites! We love that Erhard got ready in one bedroom and Katharina in the other. <3

I love that I was randomly playing with these books for photos with Katharina’s amaaaazing bouquet, when she told me Pride and Prejudice happens to be her favorite novel! Happy accidents are the best kind. :)

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

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

Tiffiny + Mitch : Orlando, Florida Wedding Preview

December 16, 2014 by Jensey 2 Comments

I can’t believe we just photographed our last Disney wedding of the year! :(

Disney Epcot Japan Pavilion Wedding

Tiffiny, you’re gorgeous.

These guys had so many personal touches to their day, my favorite being an “ear exchange” after their ring exchange. :)

Disney Epcot American Pavilion Wedding

Rain caused these guys to move their ceremony to a backup location, but with a backup location like this, how can you complain?!

This turtle kindly waited until Nate had his camera settings juuuust right to make an appearance. :)

Disney Wedding Living Seas Disney Bride

One of my favorites of the whole year- What a way to wrap up 2014!! Tiffiny and Mitch, have a great rest of your honeymoon and we’ll be in touch with the rest next year! <3
