Amelia and Schuyler : The Oldest House Wedding in St. Augustine, FL Part I

December 3, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

My littler sister was a bride. My little sister is a wife!

It seems unfathomable, mainly because this is how I will remember her forever and ever. It’s how I remember all 3 of us, actually. I was going to post an embarrassing childhood photo of her to open this blog post but decided since she IS a Root bride, to not be mean and single her out. Instead, I’ll throw all of us under a bus. But hey, look how skinny I was! And fanny packs came back this year, right? So nothing to be ashamed of here. Moving on! <3

Thank you to our vendor friends for taking such good care of my little sister. From being treated like royalty while finding her dress at Solution’s to Jim keeping her dance floor packed, it was such a wonderful feeling knowing she was in such good hands. :)

Continued from Part I! <3

On to their wedding reception! They had these cute corn hole boards which Ollie thought was a slide, so he did this for an hour, lol!

The real MVPs of the wedding: My sweet in-laws. They chased Ollie around for hours for us so we could shoot and be present!!

Leave it to my son to track down the only American flags at the reception, lol!

First dance to James Taylor’s “Smiling Face.” <3

MASSIVE thanks to my cousin Joe for helping Nate when we needed it so I could enjoy the day!

Amelia and Schuyler thank you so much for your patience- I promise the rest are coming sooooon! <3

Amanda + Corey : Estate on the Halifax Wedding in Port Orange, FL

January 7, 2019 by Jensey 1 Comment

On the way to Amanda and Corey’s wedding, I looked them up on Facebook and saw that my sister was a mutual friend. We walked into Amanda’s cottage where she got ready, and I excitedly told her she knows Amelia! “Oh I know, I told y’all I’ve followed you from the beginning!” I said I thought that meant the beginning of their engagement, etc, and she pipes up, “Nope! From the very beginning of your business!”

I loved this sweet Celebration girl so very much!! Amanda was an absolute dream of a bride, willing to do anything for a good photo! I loved how smitten she and Corey were with each other, and I couldn’t have loved their wedding venue more! It was our first time shooting the Estate on the Halifax, and it felt like every turn had a photo spot more charming than the last.

Thank you so much to our vendor team for making this wedding such a good one!!

I loved the photos of their choreographed dance, but I think I loved the celebration photo when they were done even more!! :)

Loved their sweet parent dances <3
