Kirstie + Danny : Rainy January Wedding

January 21, 2020 by Jensey Leave a Comment

It’s hard to believe Kirstie and Danny first contacted us over two *years* ago about possibly shooting their wedding!!

They came all the way from the UK to have their Disney wedding. Unfortunately Florida weather didn’t understand the gravity of this situation and it rained most of the day! But we still got great photos, and more importantly, made two new great friends. :)

Kicking off their blog post with a Root selfie because Danny asked to take it with Mickey and Minnie and we’ve never gotten to do that before!! In case you couldn’t tell from the size of the smiles on our faces! :)

They’d decorated their room for Christmas since they stayed over the holidays, which meant fun props for ring photos! We have the same Chip and Dale nutcrackers at our house! <3

Mary Poppins is Danny’s favorite movie, so of course we had to take photos with my fountain! <3

This was their best man, Oliver! Oliver’s son’s name was Finn! I couldn’t believe it! (*Our* son’s name is Oliver, and our dog is Huckleberry Finn, lol!)

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. :)

Shantel + Anthony : Wedding Pavilion Ceremony and Living Seas Reception

September 17, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Shantel and Anthony met almost 9 years ago! They’ve been coming to Walt Disney World every fall since 2015. The summer after Shantel’s college graduation, Anthony took her to dinner in Cinderella Castle. They took their time leaving the park after closing, and Anthony proposed by the Partners statue! Ever since that moment, Shantel dreamed of bringing their family to enjoy what they love about Disney!

We’re so so happy we got to be a part of it, thank you to all of their other lovely vendors! :)

I have NEVER seen a bride move so quickly as when she opened her Coke and it almost spilled down her dress! Who decided brides should be married in white again?!?
