Julianna + Carl : Disney Destination Rustic Wedding in Epcot’s Canada Pavilion

February 18, 2019 By Jensey Leave a Comment

Julianna and Carl came down to Disney from *my* home state to get married!!

All of these photos were taken by Nate and I just loved that everything from Julianna’s lace gown to the Neyland Stadium groom’s cake made me think of Tennessee. I can almost *hear* the southern accents through these photos! <3

First up, I never get sick of these Florida sunrises!

These Epcot guests got a special sighting of Cinderella’s Coach! :)

I *loved* this set up!! The wooden ceremony arch with pink flowers and wooden logs with candles made for such a romantic feel! :)

Neyland Stadium groom’s cake!! <3 <3 <3

Julianna and Carl, thank y’all for letting Nate come capture your day!! :)

Rose + Eric : Boardwalk Inn and Contemporary Resort Disney Wedding

February 11, 2019 By Jensey 1 Comment

Rose and Eric’s day had an *early* start.

So early, in fact, that they were gracious enough to book us a room at the Contemporary the night before their wedding so we could just be an elevator ride away from Rose’s room in the morning. :)

Eric’s alarm didn’t go off the morning of the wedding, so he had to rush to get ready in the same room as Rose! They hung up her dress bag so he couldn’t see his bride getting ready!

Just taking a peek at their wedding venue. <3

The smiles you get mid ceremony when your friend officiates! :)

My girl! <3

Goodbye (for now!) selfie time! :)

Because after some quick Ollie snuggles and a bite to eat, it was off to Epcot! :)

Rose and Eric, thank you for everything!!!

Alexis + Miranda : Light Pink and Gold Princess Rainy Wedding at the Grand and American Adventure Rotunda

February 4, 2019 By Jensey Leave a Comment

If you’re a loyal blog reader, you *may* recognize Alexis and Miranda from their Disney Springs engagement session with Nate last year! Remember this cute moment?!

Anyway, since editing those photos, I’ve been so excited to photograph their wedding daaaaay! And it finally came and I cannot wait to share photos. Here we gooooo! :)

The girls got ready in the Grand Floridian Villas. Alexis and Miranda had their hair and makeup done together, but split up when it came time to get dressed!

I spy with my little eye… <3

One shoe from each bride. ;)

Alexis requested her dress be photographed with the Mary Poppins fountain in their lobby and I was mooooore than happy to oblige! <3

First look time!!! As you’ll soon find out, their day was full of rain and tornado warnings (no.. seriously!) but I’m so happy we got a break from the sprinkles for this moment! :)

Then they did separate first looks with their fathers, and this one of Alexis with her dad just makes my eyes well up immediately!

And then THE moment I’ll never forget. Ever. The photos you see below will forever be burned into my wedding memories as long as I live.

It all started out well enough… We got word that awful weather was on its way so we had cut portraits shorts and get our brides in Cinderella’s Coach *immediately.* And we did…

Hooray! What a happy, special time! And then….

… Y’all, it was a MONSOON. I’ve never seen anything like it! As soon as their bums hit that velvet seat, the skies opened up and this happened! I’m so happy they had umbrellas to block the openings from sideways rain! But I mean is it just me or is it still a little magical?! <3

That poor driver!!

Don’t worry, Alexis and Miranda made it safe and sound to their ceremony at the Wedding Pavilion! :)

Alexis and Miranda’s officiant was Renee from A Lovely Ceremony, which meant their ceremony was unique! Instead of a unity candle, they opted to have a lock ceremony! An iron tree wall hanging sat on an easel with a lock on it. The lock is a one-time use lock with no key to symbolize the commitment they made. :)
