It was a really rainy day, but that did not stop Ricky from asking Michelle to marry him! Big Disney fans, Michelle and Ricky got engaged at The Grand Floridan at Narcoossee’s restaurant. We were so happy to be a part of it. xo

From Ricky:
Michelle and I went to rival high schools and were part of different social circles; she was a cheerleader and I was a band kid. We knew of each other but had never met. We met three years after high school at a local bar and quickly became close friends and started dating a little over a year later. I fell in love with her smile, laugh, sense of humor, thoughtfulness, kindness, beautiful eyes, and the list could honestly go on and on. I am very lucky she loves me back and that she fell in love with me for a lot of the same reasons I fell for her: my smile, laugh, kind heartedness, my compassion, and again another endless list of traits. After a short 24 hour trip to Disney World to see the last Wishes firework show I decided I wanted to propose to her in the happiest place on Earth. It was seeing how magical her first time going to the Magic Kingdom was and I knew it would be the perfect place to ask her. I spent two months before the proposal making reservations and gathering help from her friends and family planning how I was going to ask. I made a photobook of our relationship with her close friends and family writing something near the end. Of course at the end of the book I would ask her to marry me. I told her we were staying at All Star Movies when in reality we had reservations at Beach Club. Our first night there we had dinner at Narcoossee’s restaurant at the Grand Floridian. It was after dinner we went out onto the deck overlooking the Magic Kingdom and I showed her the book. When we arrived at the section where her family and friends had written she began to cry, realizing what was happening. At the end of the book I got down on one knee and she made a little squeak of excitement and nodded her head vigorously and said yes! We are hoping to have our wedding in either December of 2018 or early 2019.

Michael brought Ellie to Walt Disney World all the way from London to propose to her! We tried to surprise her – but she figured it out pretty quickly. We had a fun photo shoot with Cinderella Castle and fireworks in the background. Michael had it all planned, first dinner at Victoria and Albert’s, then a proposal right before dessert. I got a few shots back at the famous Kitchen Table. Congratulations you two! xo

We were really happy when Jordan called us and told us he wanted us to photograph his proposal to beautiful Laura. They were so sweet together – I think she was really surprised! After the proposal at the private balcony dinner at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, we walked through the beautiful lobby and captured some of their new happiness. Congratulations Jordan and Laura! <3

Their story from Jordan:Laura and I met freshman year of high school back in Michigan where we’re both from, and started dating only a year later. Our junior year of college we spent the spring in Florida with the Disney College Program, where we fell in love with the Disney parks and decided this was a place we would eventually like to move to. After dating for six years, we graduated this past spring and made the move to Florida. However, we spent the summer in different states- Laura moved to Florida first while I began a 3-month training for my new job. I used the time away to save for an engagement ring and proposal, and finally had enough to buy the ring I had my heart set on. During our private dinner at the Grand Floridian, I was able to finally ask her to be my wife, a question I had been wanting to ask her for years.

We thank God every day for bringing us into each other’s lives and couldn’t be happier that He did. We’re lucky enough to be each other’s first boy/girlfriend and still feel blessed to have found the person we want to spend the rest of our lives with so soon. We couldn’t be more excited for the wedding next summer and we’re so happy to have had Canovas Photography help capture our engagement and make the night one to remember.

Disney Proposal at The Grand Floridian | Allyson and Brett | She Said Yes!

Allyson and Brett met in high school nearly 7 years ago. After knowing each other for about a year, they started dating. They have been inseparable ever since. Brett is a recent graduate from the accounting school at the University of Missouri and Allyson is a marketing major currently finishing her last semester, also at the University of Missouri. Brett loves Allyson’s sense of humor, her gorgeous eyes, and the fact that she has put up with him for six years. Allyson loves so many things about Brett – he has a huge heart, he’s caring, and he is extremely goofy.

Courtney and I were so happy when Brett called us to photograph his proposal to Allyson! See his words about it below:

Proposal: I wanted to make a proposal a surprise. But since we have been dating for nearly 6 years, I knew if I planned a trip for just the two of us, she would catch on quickly. When her parent’s told us they were planning a trip to Disney World, I knew it would be the perfect way to catch Allyson off guard. A few people that we knew were also going to be in Disney World the same time as us. I had them text Allyson and tell her that they had a dinner reservation at the Grand Floridian, but were unable to make it. They then offered the reservation to Allyson and I in order to save them from a cancellation fee. When we arrived at the Grand Floridian, we were met in the lobby by a butler carrying a rose. He handed it to Allyson and led us to the fourth floor of the resort. There was a table for two set up in front of a large glass, floor to ceiling window. We had a view of the beautiful resort, lake, Cinderella’s castle, and the EPCOT ball. As we ate our appetizers and first and main courses, we watched the EPCOT Illuminations fireworks and the electrical water pageant. For dessert, we moved to the third floor balcony. When we got to the balcony, there was a table set up. We watched the Hollywood Studios fireworks and ate our desserts. As the third and final round of fireworks was getting ready to start, Canovas Photography showed up and told us that they were part of the Disney package. I was hoping Allyson wasn’t catching on, but at this point, I’m sure she was. We stood up and leaned on the railing of the balcony to watch the fireworks. A minute before the fireworks began, I pulled out my phone and a pair of headphones. I made a video of photos and video clips from our last 6 years together. The video was set to the song Then by Brad Paisley. If she had any doubt about what was happening, it was all gone now. She started crying and the firework show started. When the video ended, I pulled out the ring and proposed.

She said yes ?
