Going through our photos for this post really brought out all the feels! Jeff and I were married on Sunday, June 9, 2019 and it was everything I wanted it to be and more. Lots of you know he proposed via a Surprise 25th Birthday Party in 2017 turned Engagement Party which was super special to me as my brother and his now wife and some of my friends flew in! Excuse my delay in getting this post up but as I’m sure you can imagine the last few weeks have been a whirlwind.
Jeff and I have been married just days short of a month now and it has truly been a month of bliss. Truthful everyone keeps asking how it feels and if I feel different and truthfully perhaps its because we’ve lived together for 2 years but I feel the same, of course Jeff’s answer to that question is that he feels like he loves me more than he thought he could ( I know, how sweet!)
For me the morning started at 8AM in my hotel rooms ( I had a suite and the connecting double) 3 of my 5 bridesmaid stayed in the hotel with me while the 2 junior bridesmaids stayed with their parents (1 being my little sister) We had breakfast and mimosas while makeup with done for myself, my girls and my mother and then we had a little fun and did some group photos before getting the styled detail shots and dressed shots.
I’m absolutely in love with my detailed shots and shots with my mother and sister getting dressed.
Then the dress
Then of course Jeff and the guys had their moment just before Jeff and is Mother shared a moment
Throughout the entire planning process one thing Jeff stood firm in was not wanting to do a private first look, lucky for my my photographer had the idea to do a Father Daughter first look and these photos are definitely some of my favs!
The Ceremony was stunning. I found the most perfect venue which I’m sad to say is being demolished. The Orchid Garden at Church Street Station here in Orlando. The staircase is grand and the venue itself is beyond anything I could have imagined!
During cocktail hour of course the bridal party and immediate family took to the courtyard for the formal photos!
Then came the toast and the spilling of champagne
Our Most Perfect Cake
All in all I’d have to say getting married was amazing! The wedding was everything I ever dreamed of and I’m so happy to have shared it with you all.
Ah this is so beautiful! Congratulations!!

Enjoy it because truthfully things will go wrong (I didn’t believe that when people told me but it happened ) and it was so minor that it didn’t even bother me (the day is going to be so special you won’t even care) so just enjoy it and bask in it every moment and make sure you eat during dinner I told me coordinator not to let anyone bother me during dinner (kind of rude I know) but I couldn’t eat breakfast because of the nerves so I needed peace to eat dinner and lastly if you don’t have a coordinator at least hire a day of!!! Ooh and remember it’s all about you and your partner and no one else

Thanks so much! I’ll probably be nervous too and will have a hard time eating. I completely understand you not wanting anyone to bother you during dinner, I might do the same. We have a month of coordinator, thank God! Thank you so much for the advice!
