Make sure you’ve seen Krystal and Ben’s engagement session teasers here first! :)

Sooooooo, I sort of fell in love with the Disney Dream. There were so many little touches to love, but one of my favorites was this Cinderella mosaic mural next to Guest Relations off of the main lobby. I had this shoe shot in mind the second I saw it! Lucky for me, Krystal had some stunning Christian Louboutins for me to play with. :)

Soon enough, Castaway Cay day was here! I’d been wanting to visit Castaway Cay since I was a kid and the Disney Channel did a special on it.

I’m convinced Disney threw in some pixie dust to make that water as pretty as possible!

We got up so early to take pictures around the island before the other guests got off the boat. I know these guys were exhausted, but I loved feeling like the only ones on the island. :)

Favorite!

After their little “just married” session, Nathan and I biked around the island. Both my dad and brother are pilots, so I loved all the little aviation touches. Even the bathrooms were themed with airplane doors on the walls and vintage Piper Cub signs. :)

Hello, gorgeous!

I’m not gonna lie… The crab races got a little intense!

Hello!

So, as we were about to get back on the Disney Wonder, we ran into Cassie, who was signing up to go parasailing. Now here’s the thing- I’m sort of a quirky person. I have a lot of fears that most people don’t think twice about. My biggest fear? Killer whales, closely followed by pretty much every other creature that lives underwater. So, I tried to play it cool when Cassie asked if we wanted to join them, casually explaining how I was planning to go take a nap or something, but my inner dialogue going something like “OH PLEASE MOTHER OF GOD DO NOT MAKE ME DO IT I DON’T WANNA I DON’T WANNA!!!!” Lucky for me, there was only one spot left, to which I totally and completely selflessly suggested Nate go instead of me. ;) I love that Nate went, though, because seriously- Aren’t these the cutest honeymoon photos ever? :)

Then it was Nate’s turn to go up with Melissa, one of John’s sisters. :)

So, long story short, after a day of biking around the island with no water, Nate and I both made ourselves sick! My story was much less embarrassing than poor Nate’s, but I love him too much to publicly post what happened on the blog. I will say it’s a good one though, so make sure you ask us about it in person. ;)
