Alex & Conner chose a romantic, mid-morning micro wedding at Walt Disney World’s Swan Hotel as the perfect backdrop to start their new life together. The two met in school as lab partners, and the self-described “nerds”, both naturally a little quiet, celebrated their marriage surrounded by their closest family and friends. With around 30 guests, their romantic yet minimalist outdoor wedding at the Swan Hotel felt polished without feeling formal.

Many couples, whether local or out of state (or abroad), love the idea of getting married at Disney, but not everyone wants a “Disney wedding”. If mouse ears, Cinderella coaches, and pixie dust aren’t on your wedding inspo board, there are still plenty of ways to start your happily ever after at the happiest place on earth!

Their outdoor ceremony at the Swan’s Crescent Terrace offered exactly what they were looking for: a quiet, intimate setting that still felt connected to the larger Disney resort experience. A long walkway leads toward the ceremony terrace, with the neighboring Dolphin Hotel providing an impressive architectural backdrop. Afterward, guests moved inside to Il Mulino New York Trattoria for a post-wedding brunch, keeping the entire celebration moving easily.

We firmly believe that rain IS good luck on your wedding day, and Nicole & Jeff’s unexpectedly dreary wedding day at Villa Festa is living proof. Just minutes before their outdoor ceremony was set to begin, the skies opened up and one of those classic Florida summer storms rolled through. And yet? It turned out to be one of the most emotional weddings we’ve ever had the privilege of documenting.

Nicole & Jeff met in college back in 2018, and from the moment we arrived it was obvious how much this day meant to both of them. Jeff may look like the stereotypical tough bodybuilder, but he wears his heart on his sleeve. Nicole matched that same emotion every step of the day, and together they created a wedding that felt incredibly genuine, filled with tears, laughter, and one unforgettable dance floor.

We’ve seen a lot of pre-wedding jitters and nervous giggles before walking down the aisle, but the sweetest lovebirds Sarah & Sam had to take the cake.

These two are about as laid-back as they come, but apparently getting married was enough to make both of them extremely nervous. They met at work, and from what we could tell, their relationship has always had a pretty easygoing rhythm: Sam is the joker, Sarah is usually along for the ride, and neither of them takes life too seriously. Up until the drove together to their courthouse elopement, where apparently neither said a word to the other on the ride there because they were both so nervous!

Once they got out of the car, Sarah immediately started anxious giggling. Sam seemed equally unsure what to do with himself. So, naturally, we got them through courthouse security with some calming and reassuring words, and started the process of getting them officially married.

We don’t know the last time we’ve seen this many smiles and joyful goofy faces at a wedding, but for Donieke & Valiant, this is just par for the course of their relationship. The two of them, their closest family & friends, and a whole lot of personality made for a picture-perfect courthouse wedding in downtown Orlando.

Donieke & Valiant met online through mutual friends, and it didn’t take long for things to become serious. There were giant teddy bears involved early on, including one Valiant gave Donieke for Valentine’s Day, and eventually that same teddy bear became part of their proposal. By the time their wedding day arrived, it was pretty clear these two were completely in love and very comfortable being silly together.

Not every wedding needs a ballroom packed with hundreds of guests to feel meaningful. Sometimes, all it takes is a room full of the people who’ve been there from the beginning. That’s exactly what Lysandra & Brad created with their intimate wedding celebration at Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, FL.

Their story actually began in the very place they returned to celebrate their new marriage. Right after high school, they both worked in food and beverage at Rosen Shingle Creek and were part of the team that helped open the hotel. Years later, after building a life together, they came back as husband and wife. More than a beautiful venue, this location was the start of their story together.

After officially tying the knot earlier that day at the Orange County Courthouse, they gathered with about 25 of their closest family members and friends for a relaxed evening dinner before heading off to Punta Cana for their destination wedding celebration. It was simple, personal, and exactly what they wanted.

Some weddings are filled with extravagant details, while others remind you that the heart of the day has always been about two people making a lifelong commitment. Irelis and Dillon’s wedding at the Baughman Center in Gainesville was one of those weddings. It was simple, intentional, deeply rooted in their Christian faith, and centered on the people who mattered most.

Their story began on Upward, a Christian dating app, where they met in mid-December. Just a few months later they officially started dating, and after a little over a year together, Dillon proposed during a trip to Paris with the Eiffel Tower as the backdrop. Their relationship also came with a few fun coincidences along the way, including discovering they had once lived in apartment buildings with the exact same apartment number! Long distance was part of their journey too, with Irelis’ family rooted in Florida while Dillon’s family traveled from London to celebrate alongside them.

For their wedding day, returning to Gainesville felt especially meaningful. Irelis had attended the University of Florida and had always loved the Baughman Center, making it the perfect place to exchange vows.
