by 1 Comment

Soooooo excited to finally share some sneak peek photos from Tim and Mike’s day! Our pal Susan Southerland of Just Marry! was on hand to coordinate and make sure everything ran smoothly. Nate and I loved playing around some new locations- Their ceremony was at this stunning resort, Loews Royal Pacific. It was the *perfect* backdrop for their South Pacific-inspired wedding. I mean, look at this place!

Nikki + Michael : Wedding

Surely you remember Nikki and Michael’s romantic candle-lit comic book proposal story!

Well, their indoor wedding at the Lake Mary Events Center in Orlando was just what the doctor ordered for that hot summer day! Patricia LeJeune’s team did a phenomenal job like always.

I spy a past Root groom!!

My favorite thing about Orlando harpist Christine McPhail– One minute she’s wooing the crowd with Canon in D, the next she’s playing Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep.”

Huge thanks to Jennifer Holt of Just Marry! for making the day run smoothly, on-time, and drama free! :)

Their parents participated in the unity sand ceremony, which made for unexpected giggles. :)

Oh, and when the kids are old enough, we’re gonna teach them to flyyyyyyy! – Dave Matthews, “You and Me”

My favorite moment of the day- While their guests headed out for the sparkler exit, Nikki and Michael shared a private last dance in an empty ballroom. :)

Hello, Dara and Jason!

I think this may be tied for most past Root couples in attendance at a wedding ever! Thanks so much to all six of you- We love y’all! :)

Nikki and Michael were married last week at the Lake Mary Events Center in Orlando! We were in good company with the Just Marry! team running the day flawlessly. Exactly half of Nikki and Michael’s bridal party were past couples of ours, so Nate and I were in heaven all day!

You know how I love our emotional grooms. *sigh.* :)


I was so worried it was going to pour buckets right after their indoor ceremony, but the rain held out all evening!

While their guests were getting set up for a sparkler send-off, the bride and groom shared one last private dance in an empty ballroom. :) Favorite!

Nikki and Michael, we hope married life is fabulous! More to come soon. :)
