Alex + Aaron : Disney’s Wedding Pavilion Ceremony and Epcot Reception

March 24, 2019 by Nathan Leave a Comment

I. Loved. This. Day. <3

Alex and Aaron met on a beach during a Tim McGraw concert at the Tortuga Music Festival. Alex is one of three sisters, Aaron is one of three brothers! But the greatest thing about them is their pup, Hercules! You may have seen the post about their engagement session last week, and wedding day Herc did. not. disappoint. They live in Orlando for once (most of our Disney couples live out of state!), so this means we get to make them our local friends now. <3

One of my favorite details from their wedding morning were these cufflinks Alex had made for Aaron- So so sweet!

Guess who dropped by for a quick hello – Hercules and his cousin, Prince! <3We’ve seen a lot of embroidered parent handkerchiefs over the years, but these had little Mickey embroidered details at the bottom! :) Also, random fact : Alex’s mom is the gorgeous woman kissing her cheek in this photo, and I genuinely thought she was one of her sisters when I first walked in the room!!Alex’s wedding gift from Aaron was this beautiful “A” charm from Tiffany’s. <3I loved all of our portraits of Alex, but I think this one with Hercules is my faaaaavorite! (Sorry, Aaron!)Bridesmaids seeing her for the first time!! Only Alex’s sisters knew what her dress looked like! :)Loooooove this one from her father/daughter first look with her bridesmaids looking on. <3We took them to “my” fountain at the Grand where they stood back to back reading letters to each other before turning around…… And they had quite the audience! Thanks, Spring Break! ;)Tooooo many favorites, but this one’s way up there!If it *had* to rain on a wedding day, at least it was this one, which followed my 2 wishes : Not during portrait time, and with a bride who smiled through it!! :)Off to Epcot for fireworks tiiiiiiime!I love this one of Alex and Aaron just before being announced into their reception. Sneaky Nate! :)Another favorite!!! Alex’s father daughter dance. <3And the award for best bride faces ever… <3Alex and Aaron, we love y’all!!!! Happy Honeymooooooon!! <3

Jamie + Vince : Disney Wedding at the Wedding Pavilion and American Adventure Rotunda

March 4, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

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
