Antonia + Nathan : Disney Boardwalk Inn Wedding

August 1, 2025 by Jensey 1 Comment

Once upon a time, Antonia and Nathan met on Hinge. <3 Their first date was at Spyglass Brewery, which happened to be located in an industrial building. Despite Antonia’s brain convincing her she was about to be murdered, she trusted her heart and it turned out to be a dream of a hole-in-the-wall spot! After they’d been together for a while, Antonia would check Nathan’s pockets searching for an engagement ring any time he’d plan something. When it was time for the actual proposal, Nathan hid the engagement ring in an eyeglass cloth wipe so she didn’t see it! Antonia was having a tough week, so Nathan said he wanted to take her out to dinner. That dinner ended up being an engagement dinner with his parents!! Antonia says she was scream-crying “YES!” even before he was on a knee or took out the ring; it took him a few minutes to *actually* propose because Antonia was so happy. Later at dinner with both of their parents, she found out that during that blackout moment of excitement, she took the ring from Nathan and put in on her own finger. Nathan was thrilled she made his job so easy!!

One of the most special parts of Antonia’s engagement was wedding dress shopping with both of their mothers. She went to Marry and Tux, a little dress shop in Nashua, and found the dress. Not only was it so special with both of their moms being there for that magic moment, but Marry and Tux is also the dress shop where Nathan’s mom found her wedding dress when she was engaged to his father. <3

Nicole + Brian : Boardwalk Inn Disney Wedding – Sea Breeze Point and The Attic

May 30, 2024 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Nicole and Brian met in the first grade, but it wasn’t until high school when they started dating.

Years later, Brian was able to do the unimaginable: surprise Nicole, the planner! They were on a long weekend vacation, taking a sunset walk, when Brian got down on one knee and proposed. <3

A Disney wedding was always in the plans, and the Boardwalk Inn being Nicole’s family’s home resort meant she spent years dreaming of a ceremony at Sea Breeze Point!

First look with Dad first…

… then the groom. <3

One of those days where we smiled until our cheeks hurt!! The best compliment was given to us from our DFTW coordinator this day- “Oh, I knew they were a Root couple the second I met them.” <3 <3

I. MEAN. <3

Just a moment for this beauty in the spring. I can still smell those flowers! <3

They had a “ring warming” ceremony where they passed their wedding bands around for their guests to hold and pray over during the ceremony. We’ve seen this over the years, but I particularly loved the little Mickey carabiner keeping the rings safe and together!!

Marriedddddd!!

Head on to part two!! :)
