Laura + Alex : First United Methodist Church Wedding and Orlando Citrus Club Reception

October 20, 2017 by Jensey 1 Comment

When we first met with Laura in Panera, it was love at first sight for me. She pulled out her giant, perfectly organized wedding binder and her blue eyes lit up telling us about Alex and our meeting was so effortless! We got to the car and both left with that “oh, I reallllllly hope we booked that one” feeling. Luckily for us, Laura saw something in us she liked, too, and last month, we photographed her gorgeous wedding day. :)

We loved Alex as much as Laura told us we would, and Nate and I left their wedding day with that “oh, I really hope we get to keep them as friends!” feeling. <3

Huge thanks to our vendor team at Fairbanks Florist, Meister Productions, and the Orlando Citrus Club!

Laura and Alex, we are so, so excited to share our favorite wedding photos with you!! Between Ollie and wedding season, these are a little more delayed than I planned, but hopefully they’re worth the wait. ENJOY!

Laura and Alex, thank you for everything!!! <3 <3 <3 <3

Deborah + Aleš : Lake Mary Events Center Wedding in Orlando, Florida

August 9, 2016 by Jensey 2 Comments

When Deborah and Aleš met playing tennis at a league last year, it didn’t take long for them to realize they’d both found someone special. After all, their first date lasted 8 hours! <3

Aleš is from the Czech Republic and last summer, he brought Deborah home to meet the family. One year later, and his family was flying here for their Florida wedding. Not all of Aleš’s family spoke English, and even though some of the day might have gotten lost in translation, it was a beautiful thing to see how happy everyone was for these two. Deborah doesn’t speak much Czech and her new mother-in-law doesn’t know English, but there is already so much love between these two from their mutual love of Aleš.

Their wedding at the Lake Mary Events Center was absolutely gorgeous. I couldn’t get enough of the happy pink and blue palette and THAT. CHUPPAH. <3

We loved this vendor team so much, and huge props go to the incomparable Lana of Fairbanks Florist based out of Winter Park. Lana was a ball of sunshine and I’m so glad we finally got to work together! :) This was our second wedding with Susan Southerland of Just Marry! and the day went so smoothly with her at the helm. And while I could go on and on about how much Deborah and her family adores Susan and loved working with her and she did a great job and yadda yadda yadda, but I will more importantly point out that Susan has a vast knowledge on Pokemon Go and helped me level up while we ate our vendor meals! ;)

Of course, Jeffrey Stoner was there to film, and wedding days with Jeffrey never, ever feel like work. Jeffrey, thank you so much for sending Deborah our way- We had such a wonderful time and can’t wait to do it again. (Seriously, Root brides- Go check out his page and book him for your wedding!!)

And now, on with the photos! <3

I MEAN. <3 Quoted from FairbanksFlorist on Instagram : “I put a lot of thought into the design. I created 18 individual floral arrangements which were all individually attached to the chuppah and after the ceremony we took the individual arrangements and put them on either side of the nine tall reception centerpieces to complete the table centerpiece design!”Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 014 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 015 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 016 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 017 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 018 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 019 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 020 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 021 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 022 Lake Mary Events Center Wedding 023

My favorite part of the ceremony- Their rabbi let them whisper sweet things privately to each other while he spoke to their guests.

Jay Edwards of Liquid Entertainment was both the DJ and in charge of the uplighting. Between his, Susan’s, and Lana’s talents, the room looked so magical! :)

Ashley + Bradley : Cypress Grove Estate House Wedding in Orlando

March 14, 2016 by Jensey 3 Comments

I can’t think of a better wedding to feature in March than a gorgeous plantation wedding with more towering green trees than you can shake a stick at. Their wedding may have taken place in November, but everything about Ashley and Bradley’s wedding, colors included, make me think of spring. :)

These guys came to Orlando from Canada for their wedding, and instead of having a Disney wedding, they got married at the gorgeous Cypress Grove Estate House. Every time I’m there I wish we were there more often, it’s so beautifully southern and I love getting a “Tennessee” fix every now and then. Plus, Ashley loved it because it reminded her of Edward and Bella’s wedding venue in Twilight. ;)

This was our first wedding with RW Events, and Rachel was such a pleasure to work with! She kept things cool when nerves ran high and the day went off without a hitch. Reverend Kevin Knox performed the ceremony, and Kristin of Our DJ Rocks kept the dance floor packed. It really was such a wonderful day! :)

First look time!! :) Ashley and Brad saw each other before their ceremony and we were able to get their portraits and wedding party photos done in great light! The sun went down shortly after the wedding and we wouldn’t have had any time for these portraits otherwise.
