Kym + Anthony : Orlando Paradise Cove Wedding

March 23, 2023 by Jensey Leave a Comment

It was one of those “when you know, you know” relationships from the very beginning. Kym and Anthony were together for two years before reaching out for their Disney wedding, and ended up booking Paradise Cove for their dream Central Florida wedding! Paradise Cove is one of those hidden gems of an Orlando wedding venue, complete with an on-site house to get ready, sandy ceremony under huge, mossy trees, a lake view (complete with speedboat entrance for your groom!), and reception just a few steps over under beautiful market lights. <3

Their ceremony was officiated by their friend who set them up, and I loved how personal it made their wedding!

Nicole + Andrew : Snow White Themed December Wedding

December 21, 2021 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Happy Christmas Week to everyone celebrating!!! And happy holidays to anyone celebrating anything else!!

We Hanukkah-ed earlier this month and watched our son fall in love with Dreidel, and now I’m giddy about watching my four year old in Santa mode. He wishes for a blue drum set on every penny and star he can find. Stay tuned to see if Santa’s sleigh can fit one! :)

We’re all packed up to move this week and are trying to get photo previews to all of our couples before we take a two week break to catch up on life. Next up is Nicole and Andrew and their incredible Snow White themed wedding, complete with poisoned apple wedding favors. <3 There were so many little nods to the story, which was extra sweet learning that Andrew calls Nicole his “Snow,” and he proposed at the wishing well in Germany where Snow White does meet and greets- And the princess herself was there for the moment!

Nicole and Andrew, thank you for having us- we wish you nothing but the happiest of ever afters! :)

Thank you to our incredible team for making this one so magical! <3

Katie + Shane : Wedding at the Grand Floridian’s Wedding Pavilion and Whitehall Room

July 19, 2019 by Jensey Leave a Comment

Katie was a freshman and Shane a senior when they met in their high school’s drama club. After Shane graduated college, he moved back to the area, reconnected with Katie, and the rest is history!

Born in Melbourne but raised in Pennsylvania, Katie remains a Florida girl at heart with a strong love for Disney. It was after their first trip here together that a Disney wedding seemed inevitable, and after 3 long years of saving every penny possible, their dream came true.

It’s always special seeing a bride enter the Wedding Pavilion when we know it’s been her dreams forever, but Katie had never gotten the chance to see her dream venue in person! I could feel her goosebumps when her wedding planner opened the doors to the chapel and she started her walk down the aisle! :)

Huge thanks to our friendor team for making this such a great day!!

Wedding Planner Extraordinaire: Pamela
Venue(s): Wedding Pavilion, followed by the Whitehall Ballroom & Patio

We set our alarms for 4:30am for Katie’s day. This sunrise made the eye bags so worth it. <3

Best thing about Disney weddings? The reactions when my favorite rodents arrive! <3

We met back up that night for their Illuminations dessert party! Only two more of these for us before this show ends and I’m already crying just thinking about it!

Katie and Shane, thank you SO much for having us!!! Happy honeymoon!!!! <3
