From Ice Rink to Engaged

Who would have ever thought that being dropped off at an ice rink to occupy your time while your parents shopped, would turn into a love story.  While James was on holiday with his family, from England, they came by Kissimmee to let him do a little ice skating, while they shopped.  It was there at the front desk that he met Elena.  Fast forward seven years and here they are falling in love and getting married.  They truly went from the ice rink to engaged.

When Elena and James decided to tie the knot they knew that they wanted something simple, beautiful, and with very little fuss.  They contacted Intimate Weddings of Orlando after looking through the various wedding packages and decided that Kraft Azalea Garden, in Winter Park would be a perfect fit for the two of them.

James waited at The Exedra by Lake Maitland for his bride to join him.  When Elena was ready she walked the meandering path to the tune of Pacabells Cannon in D, to join James by The Exedra.  There they joined hands, exchanged vows and rings and became husband and wife.

Flowers by Lesley created a beautiful coral colored bouquet and boutonniere just for the two of them.  The wrapped stem of the bouquet matched Elena’s dress perfectly and the coral boutonniere for James was striking against his blue vested suit.

Edmund Rhodes with Rhodes Studios captured every aspect of the ceremony.  From the couple stepping out of their car, the bride walking in, their ceremony, and their first kiss as husband and wife.

Rev.Glynn Ferguson with Sensational Ceremonies took time to work with the couple to create a custom ceremony.  They wanted something simple and civil, but with a blessing of the hands and the Apache Wedding Blessing.

Though oceans apart their love now has a start.  We wish them happiness for a lifetime.
