Erin + Brendan : Wedding Part II

Continued from Erin and Brendan Part I. :)

After getting married at Disney’s Wedding Pavilion, we headed to Narcoose’s for the reception and stopped for photos along the way.

From now on when we shoot morning Disney weddings, I’m requesting Mickey waffles. Scratch that… I’m demanding them! It’s torture to walk by these on the way to a vendor meal.

I love when couples get personal with their cake toppers!

FAVORITE!

Erin told me earlier in the day that her Mom complained there’s not much of a role for Moms in weddings… You know, your Dad gives you away, gives a toast, gets to do the father/ daughter dance. When Erin surprised her Mom with a mother/ daughter dance to “Baby Mine,” there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. :)

Erin also brought up her sister and new niece to join in. :)

Yes, I shot their rings in a Mickey waffle. Shut up. :)

I like this one much better…

… But Nate’ll be mad if I don’t include this one, even though I look like a gargoyle next to Erin!

Best. Gift. Ever. Brendan is a talented artist and painted the intro frame of us from our website… Amazing flower clouds, electric plug and repeating frames and all. Oh yes, there were tears.

Erin and Brendan, to say we love you would be an understatement. Please, please, please let’s be friends. K? <3

Erin + Brendan : Wedding Part I

Erin and Brendan are one of those extra special couples. The kind that comes around once in a while, and after shooting their engagement session, my car ride home with Nate is mostly me freaking out, “Do you think they liked me? Was it awkward when I said ___? Do you think Erin will be my friend? No… Seriously?”

The only explanation I have for my obsession is this photo. Walking into a hotel room with a bubbly red head getting ready for her wedding and seeing she’s wearing a pair of Ariel socks? Let’s just say I was tempted to wow her with my mad friendship braiding skills right there and then!

It doesn’t hurt that Brendan is equally charming and adorable.

Oh, hello Patricia!

As if I couldn’t love her any more, Erin is part Irish and included shamrocks in the guests’ toss petals. I’m part Irish and was born on St. Patrick’s Day. See? Soul mates.
