Allie + Neil : Disney Wish Wedding

August 11, 2025 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Allie and Neil first met at the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend Race Expo in 2020. Staying in touch through quarantine, they met up again as soon as they could in Walt Disney World! They dated long distance and saw each other during runDisney events and the frequent road trip.

It should come as NO surprise that during the Dopey Challenge in 2023, Neil proposed the night before the race began. It should *also* come as no surprise that they decided the most fitting place to tie the knot was on the Disney Cruise Line, where they were married in the beautiful atrium and (wait for it..) celebrated the next morning with a special 5K for their wedding guests. Complete with custom race shirts, the cutest bridal running attire, and amazing medals for the finishers!

Cassie + Zach : Holiday Wedding on the Disney Dream Part I

December 7, 2024 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Cassie and Zach met online and experienced the longest first date ever, doing all the touristy things on I-Drive in Orlando. :)

Their next test was a 7-night Disney Cruise, thinking if they can survive a week together on a ship, they can last forever! A couple years later and they were engaged on the Disney Fantasy, and shortly after, planned to get married on a Disney Cruise November of 2020.

You can kind of imagine what followed from there, given that the cruise industry was one of the last to return! Take two Disney Cruise wedding was planned for April 2021 and that also got canceled, as did their *3rd* attempt that July.

FOURTH time was the charm for Cassie and Zach, with a wedding on the Disney Dream that November!! My Christmas-loving heart was secretly thrilled with how it turned out, because I’ve wanted to experience the Very Merrytime Cruises forever!

This cruise was the most “normal” I’d felt since the pandemic began. <3

Can you spot Cassie’s wedding dress? Also, I could stare at this lobby decked out for Christmas for days.

Cassie’s shoes had all the past wedding dates scratched off on her shoes! I mean, if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry, right?

Our first ceremony at Castaway Cay’s Wedding Pointe!

I told Cassie her dress sparkled so much, it reminded me of Ariel’s glittery dress coming out of the water at the end of the Little Mermaid!!

Part Two here!

Disney Cruise Line : Disney Wish!

July 30, 2023 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Just a teeny peek into the little family vacation we made while Nate photographed Timothy and Vanessa’s wedding day! <3

The last time we cruised as a family was well before the pandemic, we had a 2 year old. This was such a different experience!!

Ollie was shocked to find out his bff neighbor was on board! <3

The single coolest thing about the kids club? Checking your kid in to the club in the lobby and watching them take the slide in. <3

This was the first time we let Ollie take one of our cameras around for photos…

… which resulted in a million gems like this! :)

… and this. <3

Oh gosh our next cruise can’t come soon enough! See ya next year, Disney Wish! :)
