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

More Ollie photos because I’m still not over his little bowtie. <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

Allison + Justin : Disney Fairy Tale Wedding

November 21, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

It all began with a match on Bumble and led to a Cinderella Castle proposal at Walt Disney World! Justin may have not taken his first trip to Walt Disney World until 2018, but he’s a Disney kid at heart and can even give Allison a run for her money in Disney trivia! Allison and Justin are two of the most fun, fit, and friendly people we’ve ever met and it was an absolute honor to have a small part in their best day ever. :)
Venue:  Disney’s Wedding Pavilion
Wedding Planner:  Carol Mikles
Officiant: Rev. Kevin Knox
