Megan & Roby spent their Sunday mornings in Winter Park, Florida at St. Margaret Mary’s Catholic Church and would spend their afternoons strolling the streets of Winter Park. When it came to choosing a wedding and reception venue – this was a no brainer for them.
Seeing each other for the first time at the alter, sharing their first dance to “You and Me” by Dave Matthews Band at their reception, being first in line for a bowl of their favorite ice cream from Kelly’s Ice Cream Truck and running through a sea of sparklers before walking back to the hotel together hand in hand reminiscing on their wedding day, would soon become some of their favorite memories.
We are thankful to have spent the day with Megan and Roby and honored to photograph their love!

Rob and Chaney met in Lexington, Kentucky where they both had spent a great bit of their lives before moving to Atlanta, Georgia together in 2016.
Lexington had been “home” for so long, it was an extremely tough decision for us to move. We decided it would be best for our family and careers to take the plunge and move to Atlanta. Rob proposed a few months later (November 5, 2016) in Piedmont Park at sunrise, on my late Grandmothers birthday.
For us, it was never a question as to ‘if’ we would get married in Lexington, KY, it was just ‘where?’. Rob was pretty adamant that we not have a country club wedding, it just didn’t feel like “us”. So, we searched for an unconventional reception space that could hold both us and Rob’s massive family, and wasn’t saturated with wedding receptions. Through multiple connections we found ourselves at Kroger Field and we knew it was our spot. Rob and I both went to Kentucky, and having our reception at a football stadium in a room sponsored by Woodford Reserve is about as happy as I could make Rob Riddell!

You and your bridesmaids may have all your dresses picked out, fitted, and ready to go… but have you thought about what to wear before putting them on? While getting ready looks may not sound too important, if you’ve hired Emotive Photo as your wedding photographer, we’ll show up just in time to capture those final finishing touches before you step into your wedding gown and trust us, you’ll want to have something that’s not only comfy and cute, but photogenic too! Here’s a little inspiration for you… some of our own brides & bridesmaids getting ready & what they chose to wear at these beautiful Florida wedding venues.
ROBES
Want to feel comfortable and fancy while you prep for your big day? Matching robes add a dose of elegance to the getting ready room as you sip champagne and get your hair done! (don’t forget to steam the robes ahead of time for flawless getting ready photos!) Check out Plum Pretty Sugar… they have some of our favs!
ROMPERS
The most important part of choosing your getting ready look is selecting something that won’t mess up your girls’ hair and makeup when they change into their dresses! Rompers are a cute solution since you can’t take them off over your head anyway. Printed, floral, matching, or mismatched — your girls will love getting ready in rompers!
BUTTON DOWNS
Like with rompers, button down shirts or dresses solve the problem of not wanting to ruin your hair-do. Go for a comfy look with oversized button downs in any color, stripes or polka dots, or personalized monograms! They also make for creative, personalized & useful bridesmaid gifts!
