Tara + Matt : Wedding Part II

March 7, 2012 by Jensey 3 Comments

Continued from Tara and Matt’s Wedding Part I!

There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow, shining at the end of every daaaaaay…. There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow, and tomorrow is just a dream awaaaaay!

As soon as we reached the main building at the Boardwalk the rain started up again, so we kept most of our portraits inside. (Thankfully, they’d done a first look, so we had plenty of photos already!)

Squiiiiiiiiiiiinch!

Love that “snow rain!” Tara and Matt were amazing and let us step outside for a few photos- We kept them under an overhang, so no wedding gowns were harmed in the making of this image!

Favorite of Nate’s!

Favorite of mine. :)

I think The Attic at Disney’s Boardwalk was our most-used reception venue for our Disney couples in 2011.

I love The Attic for couples married at Sea Breeze Point– It’s really cool that you have a great view of your wedding location during your reception!

Cake cutting threats. ;)

Tara and Matt, thank you for being so wonderful to play with! :)

Tara + Matt : Wedding Part I

March 6, 2012 by Jensey 5 Comments

Tara and Matt’s wedding was scheduled for a toasty August afternoon, so when the morning started out a bit overcast, we were thankful for the break in the heat! We didn’t meet Tara and Matt until their wedding day, but they were just as sweet as they came across in their emails. :)

We started the day at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort, where Tara and Matt were getting ready.

When we arrived, Patricia LeJeune was just finishing up turning already pretty Tara to bride Tara. :)

One of my favorite first looks to date. Read more about our thoughts on this special moment here!

Matt’s tie was amazing- He said after looking in every men’s suit store around, Marshall’s ended up being the place to find that perfect finishing touch.

Have you spotted Tara’s “hidden Mickey” yet?

I honestly have no idea what’s going on here, but I’m in love, regardless! ;)

About two minutes before their outdoor Sea Breeze Point ceremony at Disney’s Boardwalk, this happened.

Sure enough, the ceremony started and rain disappeared. :)

 

Favorite. :)

Tara and Matt had my favorite recessional music to date – “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” from The Carousel of Progress. Disney wedding or not, it was the perfect feel-good “just married” tune! :)

Check back tomorrow as their wedding continues with some “snow rain!”

First Look on the 1st : Megan + Kevin

March 1, 2012 by Jensey 1 Comment

Thank you, Megan, for sharing your story with us! Much love to you, Kevin, and baby Eli on the way! :)

Upon first meeting the Roots, Kevin and I fell in love with the idea of doing a first look session with them. However, while we loved it our family was hesitant saying that it was bad luck to see each other before I walked down the aisle. But they were overruled, we both wanted a special moment, just us, to kiss each other and talk before the craziness of the day really started.

I remember riding in the limo with Nate and Jensey to the beach where I was meeting Kevin. I think I was so nervously excited that I did not say two words. Walking down the boardwalk I saw him leaning on the railing with his back to me, in that moment I was so giddy, emotional, and in love with this man that I wanted to scream! I think I said “Pssst, turn around babe,” and as soon as our eyes met it was like meeting him again for the first time. We kissed and held each other close, and in those moments I felt like we were the only two people in the world.

We had so much fun running barefoot on the sand together, dancing by the water and goofing off before the ceremony. It made us both feel so relaxed and at ease before the big event took place. And best of all, we didn’t have to wait until we were pronounced man and wife to kiss each other!

To sum it up, our first look was sweet, intimate, unforgettable and amazing. We would not have changed a thing. It was definitely one of the most memorable moments of our big day! Thanks Nate and Jensey!
