We’ve done so many weddings at the Grand Floridian that it blew my mind when Nate snagged this shot for the first time- I officially think the lobby is prettiest when looking up! :)

Gwen’s siblings were uh-dorable. We really hope to photograph the other three weddings in the coming years! :)

Gwen’s gown was one of my all-time favorites- So elegant. :)

Our bride’s one shot request- Todd helping her out of the carriage. :) Love the monorail in the back!

My favorite. :)

Gwen and Todd, thanks for being such a pleasure to work with! :)

Victoria + Jack : Wedding Part II

Continued from Victoria + Jack’s Wedding Part I

Of course, we had to do some newlywed photos at “my” fountain. ;)

Victoria’s reception took place in the Whitehall Room at the Grand Floridian.

My favorite… Nate always captures the most magical first dance moments.

I know I mentioned in my last post, but Victoria’s parents were absolutely darling!

Love the group shot of all the wedding guests on the Whitehall Patio! :)

Victoria and Jack treated their guests (and us!) to a sunset cruise around Bay Lake and the Seven Seas Lagoon.

It was so fun and something I’m not sure Nate and I would have had the chance to do otherwise!

After the sunset cruise, their wedding guests were treated to a dessert party at the Grand and ended the night with Wishes!

Thank you, Victoria and Jack, for letting us tag along on your wedding day! We can’t wait to come visit you! ;)

Victoria + Jack : Wedding Part I

May 24, 2011 by Jensey 8 Comments

Victoria and Jack came all the way from the United Kingdom to get married at Walt Disney World. I so love our British brides for a number of reasons : 1- I became completely and utterly obsessed with all things Royal Wedding, 2- In my twisted way of thinking, this gets me a smidgen closer to my new life long dream of being Catherine’s bff, 3- The hats that the guests wear, 4- I’ve been told my “British accent” sounds part Chinese, part drunk, and part Bert from Mary Poppins, so the more I’m around it, the more I can perfect it!

The biggest reason we love our British brides, though, is because they and their guests are so darn nice. Victoria’s wedding day was hardly work for us! The second we stepped into the hotel room, Victoria’s Mom asked about Huck, and immediately I knew it was going to be an amazing day. :)

Because it feels like it’s been ages since we posted a mirror shot, here we goooo!

Victoria let me do my first ever Face Time with her friend Hayley, who happens to be our adorable portrait session winner!

This smile didn’t leave Jack’s face all day. Seriously. And I loved him for it. :)

Gotta love Disney floral!

I’m gonna go on record and say Katie and Hayley, Victoria’s bridesmaids, were two of the sweetest attendants we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. They were so supportive, happy, and looked like Giselle from Enchanted. I want a Katie and Hayley in my life!

Victoria is an only child, and it was clear she had her Dad wrapped around her finger. Every time he so much as looked her way, he started tearing up. Victoria’s parents were the cutest, and I loved seeing them sneak little moments with each other through out the day. :)
