Kristen + Rob : Wedding Part II

June 14, 2012 by Jensey 4 Comments

Continued from Kristen and Rob’s Wedding Part I.

I know they say it’s good luck if it rains on your wedding day, but I’m gonna just throw it out here that a random Carrot Top sighting on your wedding day must be REALLY good luck. :)

One thing I loved about working with these guys is how much they trusted us. From our vendor suggestion in the beginning to photos on the wedding day, they were amazing about making us feel heard! :)

Favorite! :)

Kristen and Rob’s reception was held at the Winter Park Farmer’s Market. I couldn’t believe in 6+ years of doing this business, this was our first Winter Park Farmer’s Market wedding! Lucky for us, Tracy Marini of Eventfully Yours was on hand to make the evening a success. And by that I mean she brought us juice boxes… Again. :)

The set up at the Farmer’s Market was absolutely gorgeous. This venue is sooooo dark, so their added lighting made all the difference!

Kristen and Rob’s first dance was one of those sneaky slow-dance-turned-fast-dance dances.

Rob’s dance with his mom was just another one of those sneaky slow-dance-turned-flash-mob dances.

Yes, I said FLASH MOB!

I have to add in here that our pal Maria Shafer did an amazing job keeping the dance floor packed! If you’re looking for a dj for your big day, check out Maria’s site and tell her we sent you! :) My only complaint working with Maria is she makes me wanna stop working and dance!

Last dance love!

Kristen and Rob, thank y’all for everything!!!! Let us know when you’re back in Nashville! :)

Kristen + Rob : Wedding Part I

June 13, 2012 by Jensey 6 Comments

It was just your average girl meets boy story : Kristen saw Rob in her one-armed-bass-player-friend’s YouTube video and she thought he was totally cute and subscribed to Rob’s channel. It didn’t take long before Rob saw Kristen was from Orlando and shot her a message about how much he loved Disney, and the rest was history. But you know, we hear that one all the time. *Yawn!*

We’ve been looking forward to Kristen and Rob’s wedding since our first meeting with them in Nashville a year and a half ago. We all clicked so well and shared a love for Arrested Development- What more could a photographer ask for? :)

We began their wedding day in Kristen’s parents’ home. :)

Usually one of the first things we do the morning of a wedding is meet the bridesmaids and family members in the room. We loved that Rob’s sister needed no introduction! :)

I loved Kristen’s silly cousin. :)

Kristen and Rob were actually sent to us by Rob’s “best lady,” who randomly found us online. Heather, you’re awesome. :)

Kristen and Rob were married at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in Winter Park, Florida.

Rob’s sister, Jen, was one of the best vocalists we’ve ever heard at a ceremony!!

“Just married” faces. :)

Their wedding day had over an 80% chance of rain, but it stayed clear until the reception! Their wedding locations were about a 10 minute walk from each other, but Kristen and Rob gave us tons of photo time on the way. :) It was so fun to walk with the bridal party down Park Avenue on a busy Saturday afternoon!
