Cypress Grove Estate House | Cypress Grove Park | Orlando, Florida

Megan and Justin (who you may remember from our Partybooth video from yesterday) got married last weekend at one of our favorite venues with one of our favorite wedding teams ever, in the world, amen. I jokingly (kind of) refer to the grouping as the Orlando Dream Team because every wedding that we shoot together ends up being a favorite of mine and is executed beautifully and wonderfully and there’s butterflies and unicorns and magic. Maybe not that last part, but truly, it’s wonderful. This is just a sneak peek and I really feel like I’m not doing Megan and Justin’s wedding any justice with this because there were so many more details and aspects I want to show off and can’t… yet. Believe me, their wedding post is going to be HUGE! Tommy Murphy from Greenery Productions was on hand transforming the estate house and park into a pink hued wonderland of french-influenced flora. Brandee Gaar was running the show flanked by her amazing team of talented ladies from Blush by Brandee Gaar. And, might I add a new player to our dream team, Ben Lawles from Kaleidoscope Event Lighting was on hand lighting up the night in various shades of pink. AMAZING people. Seriously I want to bottle all of those vendors up and sell them as a wedding cure all pill because they’re that amazing (and Ben gave Brandee and I queso and chips to snack on, so you know he’s got a special place in my heart forever). Here’s a glimpse…

First Look…

Flowers by Tommy. He’s a genius. I adore him. True story.

They did their setup flip-flopped from the usual and I LOVED it! I can’t wait to show you more…

Isn’t that uplighting magical? And yes, that’s a Jeremiah’s Italian Ice cart back there. More on that later. ;)

Cypress Grove Estate House | Orlando, Florida

They were both quiet when we first met. They felt no need to be flashy or to flaunt. They are who they are and if they allow you a glimpse into their love, you’ll leave feeling uplifted because of it. I’m always a little bit intrigued by really quiet couples. Nate and I are not at all “really quiet”. Both of us are loquacious, our lives are fairly public through our blog and facebook pages, and we both wear our hearts on our sleeves. Sometimes I wish I could be more mysterious but the truth is that we just aren’t. So when we encounter couples who are the opposite from us I’m always really charmed by the quiet strength of their love. Erin and Alex are one of those couples and I’m so happy that we were able to be there with them to capture it all.

Erin and Alex’s wedding was perfection. But how can a wedding NOT be perfection when you’re working with what we like to affectionately call the Orlando Dream Team of wedding vendors. Brandee Gaar was coordinating and Tommy Murphy from Greenery Productions was handling the floral and decor and we just ADORE working with those two! We had an amazing time capturing all the gorgeous details of Erin & Alex’s day and we hope that you all enjoy reliving their wedding day through our eyes…
