A Disney Proposal at the Contemporary Resort | Gordon and Kristen

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

​Gordon, a physician, called me from Pittsburg to talk about his proposal to beautiful Kristen, an accountant who lives in Toronto. He was so sweet, so nervous, wanted his proposal to be perfect and wanted us there to capture it. Gordon had quite the set up for his proposal to Kristen – Mickey balloons, rose petals and a beautiful engagement ring – looking over Disney World from Disney’s Contemporary Resort balcony. He even had rented a Ring Cam!  It captured the whole proposal from Gordon’s point of view. We had so much fun with them and CAN NOT wait for their summer wedding in Toronto!

I asked Kristen how they met and how they got to Disney for their proposal: Gordon and I met through mutual friends, his cousin (Emily) and my best friend (Azalea) worked together and he arranged an outing with all his cousins and Emily invited Azalea who invited me and the rest was history! Gordon chose Disney World to propose because we are both huge Disney fans and our goal is to visit all the Disney resorts in the world. Disney World is the best one so he chose Orlando for the proposal. I initially thought I was going to a free family vacation paid by my mom’s company with my parents to Orlando so I was REALLY surprised when I walked into the room. From what I heard from Gordon he had been planning this Disney proposal for a very long time, endless consultations with his best friend, my best friend and our parents to pull it off.

Beth and Jake Engagement walk through Disney | Engagement Photography with The Canova’s Photography

I met Beth through her mother really – she was texting me from Connecticut for her daughter in Jupiter, trying to help her find a photographer for her wedding. I was in Sarasota visiting another bride that day and we texted most of the day, “Are you available that day? What do you think of Paradise Cove? What time would be a good time for the ceremony…?” Finally Beth and I met in person when she and her honey Jake met us Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort. Big Disney fans, we were friends right away, Beth and I talking wedding details and Courtney and Jake talking helicopters and airplanes. Thank you, you two for including us in your lives! We can’t wait for your wedding. xo

How they met in Beth’s words:“Jake and I met at work. We both saw each other across the room and kind of locked eyes and smiled. It took us a year after that moment to actually decide to date, but we always talk about that moment on my first day at work, locking eyes and smiling like… We knew it was something  special.  

The best thing we love about each other is that despite the age difference, we have so much in common and have both never had so much fun in our lives. We love our life together. He has allowed me to find a happiness that I didn’t know was possible.

ILY is short for I love you. My parents have said it to each other, written it on cards and letters for 45 years.. And we stole it from them. They are the happiest and most in love couple I know. It worked for them, I know it will work for us.”
