Marsha + Judy : Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club and Lodge Wedding

June 9, 2019 by Jensey 15 Comments

“A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others.” ― L. Frank Baum, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

That quote kicked off Marsha and Judy’s wedding ceremony, and I can think of no more fitting description for these two incredible women.

They’ve been together for almost 20 years- first meeting online, becoming close over messages, then their first date at Steak and Shake. They’re the two incredible aunts of my best friend, Veronica, and my newest acquired family members as I slowly carve out a permanent spot in her family. :) When I started asking Veronica questions about how they met, she responded with, “I don’t actually know- They’ve just always been ‘Marsha and Judy’ as long as I can remember.” I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a couple more beloved- When they opened up the mic for toasts during the reception, it was practically standing room only of people sharing their memories, love, and gratitude for these two, each sentiment more touching than the last.

In the 13 years we’ve photographed weddings, this was my all-time favorite ceremony. Veronica’s dad officiated, her mother sang, and every quote, sentiment, vow, and laugh was so perfectly tailored to them and the life they’ve built together.

Nate said it best on our drive home. “We’ve only known them a short time, but our lives are already richer because of them.”

Marsha and Judy, we love you to the moon, and we hope you love your wedding preview. Thank you for the greatest honor of letting us be your photographers!! :)

I have never, ever seen a more joyful start to a wedding ceremony than watching Marsha literally giggle and dance her way down the aisle and both of them greeting their guests with big hugs and kisses!!

Favorite. <3

Trying to steal a kiss after Judy said her vows! :)

MARRIED! <3

Their ceremony was at Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club & Lodge, and this little courtyard was my faaaaavorite! :)

Ollie’s two favorite people and most requested friends- “Ronna and Deg!” <3 <3

And now for some favorite photos from their morning after brunch! Orange juice cheers with Ollie! :)

Marsha and Judy- My *only* complaint about your wedding is that we never got a photo together! Let’s fix that asap. We love y’all!!!! :)

Nicole + Lacey : Grand Floridian Engagement Session

February 14, 2018 by Jensey 1 Comment

It’s February- I’ve been waiting a lonnnnnng time for February to get here.

Why? Because it means we get to bring the little to our second favorite city in the world: Nashville. <3

It’s hard to believe we were Nashville residents for 4 YEARS! When Nicole and Lacey first started planning their February wedding, it was going to be in Chicago. But I was on Cloud 9 when we got word they were changing locations to Nashville, a place equally special to them. And at the LOVELESS CAFE! 15 minutes from our first home! I’m so, so, so excited February is heeeeeeeere! :)

I met Nicole when we worked in Fantasyland together a lifetime ago. I can proudly confirm that I have never, ever seen her this happy and I’m so, so thrilled to be photographing her wedding!! I loved getting to know Lacey a bit during their engagement session and she’s just as lovely as I’d hoped.

So. Many. Favorites. <3 <3

We cannot wait to see y’all again sooooooooooooooon!!!!!!!!!! <3
