Earlier this Spring, Ryan and I traveled down to Florida to photograph and DJ a wedding. We love that we were asked to be a part of Mike and Meara’a Wedding. They met while working at Disney World at the Backlot Tour in Hollywood Studios. We first met them a few years ago through Ryan and Mike doing magic.

They had a beautiful wedding at St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church located in Winterpark Florida. The downtown area was great and the inside of the church was amazing.

Mike and Meara did a first look with each other out in the garden behind the church. I teared up seeing their expressions towards each other.

We then headed around to the front of the church and took some fun photos of them with the bridal party. The guys cracked me up!

Mike escorted his soon to be bride down the aisle. They were all smiles and ready to tie the knot!

The reception took place at the Historic Dubsdread in Orlando. The area was gorgeous! They had beautiful 100 year old trees and greenery everywhere. While the guest were enjoying cocktails, we got to explore the area.

To kick off the reception, Mike and Meara shared their first dance followed by the Father/Daughter dance and Brother/Sister dance.

I totally teared up during the Father/Daughter dance. Meara and her dad danced to the classic Disney song “A Whole New World” from Aladdin – and they both sang to it!

The rest of the evening, everyone danced and had a great time.
