This is the story of Tara and Ryan’s beautiful wedding continued with their wedding reception that was held at the Timacuan Country Club in Lake Mary. If you missed Part 1 you can see that here. The cake was provided by Party Flavors and was created to compliment Tara’s dress-beautiful! The candy bar was a huge hit and I love how they personalized the candy bar with all of the bridal party “favorites”. Touches of Tara and Ryan were on every aspect of the reception which made it that much more special for all of the family and friends in attendance. And DJ Lou provided the tunes for the bride and groom’s first dance and the dancing continued right up until Tara and Ryan left to the crackling of tons of sparklers. Wishing them a lifetime of love, laughs and happiness…

Their first dance…A yummy candy bar…Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dances…This is one of my favorites…I adore how he is looking at her…

I have been anxiously awaiting to post this gorgeous wedding of Tara and Ryan and had a truly difficult time narrowing down my favorite shots…so this will be a two-part blog post beginning with the pre-ceremony, ceremony and after ceremony followed by Part 2-the reception.

It’s hard for me to put into words what it meant to me to photograph this most wonderful day for them. I have known Tara and Ryan for years now and was elated when they asked me to be their photographer. We actually started off with the Photobooth “Save the Date” photo shoot and then shortly afterwards shot their engagement in Winter Park. And then on Saturday, January 29th they became Mr. & Mrs. Gasparovic or kindly known as “The Gaspos”. Their day was nothing less than perfect-the kind of fairy tale perfection every bride dreams of. So here is a little of that perfection to enjoy…

A first look…
