One of our favorite wedding-styled shoots from last year was at the newly-renovated Wyndham Orlando International Drive. Jennifer from Just Marry! put together this Manhattan Architectural stylized shoot. The hotel’s updated modern look inspired the theme, and our two models brought it all together. The first was our uptown “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” bride whose structured lines made for a strikingly elegant look. Grace Kelly inspired our fun and artistic bride, whose bouquet brought a breath of springtime everywhere she went. With either style, the glamorous venue served as the perfect backdrop!
I met Lauren when she was in high school. The fashion photographer in me saw her beautiful face, big eyes and long legs and I said to her Mom: “Please call me when she is ready for her model portfolio!” Which she did, which lead to our friendship and then to them sitting on our living room couch talking about her wedding to her handsome military man Trevor. We loved this wedding! I haven’t seen so much laughing at a wedding like this – giggling really. Such a happy and perfect-for-each-other couple! Thank you Lauren and Trevor for including us in your wonderful family celebration!
And special thanks to Michelle, our amazing wedding coordinator, for this wonderful commentary of Lauren and Trevor’s big night:
On November 2nd 2013, Lauren married her love Trevor at the beautiful Garden Chateau in Winter Garden Florida. This sweet couple showed their love for one another, as well as their family and friends, throughout their remarkable wedding day.
The ceremony took place on the Garden Lawn, adored with market lighting and mason jar floral – the mood was set for the lovely, sentimental ceremony. The purple and lavender floral, provided by Lee Forrest Designs, popped against the gorgeous green Garden Lawn of the Garden Chateau. As Lauren and her father entered through the garden gate, with the view of Johns Lake as their background, guests were in awe.
Lauren was the epitome of vintage elegance with her lace Vera Wang gown and fabulous lace boots. From head to toe, Lauren was breathtaking. Bridesmaids dressed in deep purple cocktail dresses – flower girl Rachel made a special entrance by passing out purple roses as she walked down the aisle. The charming details the couple added to their ceremony made each guest feel so loved.
The evening was complete with dinner in the library and cake cutting in the Grand Room. Candlelight and family photos created a homey, family feel in the Library where dinner was served. The talented Darlene Wood created the three-tiered buttercream cake, embellished with delicate flowers in various shades of purple. Guests enjoyed tea and coffee in antique teacups belonging to the Mother of the Bride. This family affair is one to remember!
Congratulations Lauren and Trevor – wishing you are lifetime of love and happiness!
