I still remember to this day how Marta and I first met Desiree and Sebastian. They were attending a wedding show in Orlando and were sent to our booth by another wedding vendor. Marta and I were in the middle of things, so we simply said hello and talked to them very briefly about their wedding day. We gave them some information about our wedding collections and how the entire wedding process is with us. In those brief moments, we had no idea of the romantic wedding in Paradise Cove that was being planned.
Desiree & Sebastian and their Romantic Wedding at Paradise Cove
On the day of the wedding, we didn’t really know what to expect. They didn’t have a Together Session in their Wedding Collection, so we didn’t have an engagement session with them.
We’ve worked at Paradise Cove plenty of times in the past. We were excited about the chilly air. It was the first real day of Fall in Florida. The air was crisp and the sunlight was warm.
When we walked into Desiree’s getting ready room, she was just about done with makeup and hair. We quickly took her dress out of the getting ready area and started photographing it. After that, the wedding day became a bit of a blur.
The guys were getting ready in their room across the venue and both dogs were hanging out with them. As the ceremony approached, we started to prep things up and help in any way possible.
Paradise Cove Wedding Ceremony & Reception
When the ceremony started, we realized how much emotion was going to be at this romantic wedding. Marta and I have worked at Paradise Cove plenty of times. It’s one of our favorite wedding venues in Orlando. They opted for an unplugged wedding. But we’ve never seen as much emotion and tears as we saw on this wedding day.
Marta and I saw Sebastian shed tears of joy as his bride walked down the aisle. Desiree and her dad both walked down with tears in their eyes. Every single person was undeniably happy to see them start their journey in their lives together. Their photos don’t do them justice.
I couldn’t have been any happier to photograph these two on their wedding day. Everything was perfect for their wedding portraits. Looking back on it now, I wish we had more daylight to photograph them.
In the end, they tied the knot in a way that Marta and I still talk about to this day. Check out their wedding picture below from their romantic wedding at Paradise Cove.
