Nathalia and Gilberto – Orlando Wedding Photography

An intimate wedding, here in Orlando at the always accommodating DoubleTree Castle Hotel with “just the 2 of them” wedding.  Nathalia & Gilberto are from Brazil. They speak Portuguese and almost NO English. Needless to say, there was a “slight” language barrier. Gilberto does speak some English, but he is a bit limited.

Because it was “just the 2 of them,” her mother was back home in Brazil. Fortunately, her mom was able to converse with Nathalia via web cam, up until she was ready to leave her hotel room and walk up the aisle. Mom wished her luck and we were on our way!

We had a great time, of course. Perhaps a bit challenging (linguistically, of course) but well worth it. After all, who doesn’t enjoy something a little different?

The good news of course, is that at a wedding, on her very special day, language does NOT matter. Love, romance, fun and beauty has NO language barrier!

Enjoy the Angle!

Heather Canada Speaks

Another educational opportunity from a very well versed and fellow Association of Bridal Consultants (ABC) member Heather Canada of First Coast Weddings and Events had a program on tools to create a system for your business. The event was hosted by Michelle Williams at the Rosen Centre Hotel . As always, Heather was a terrific speaker & with a wonderful program. After her program, we had a networking event, along with a delicious lunch – which could be misconstrued for dinner! We then enjoyed a performance of Statues De La Vie (“Living Statues”) from Key Artist Group. To “top it off” was amazingly delicious, made in-front of you ice cream from Pure Magic Ice Cream. My fave was Mint Chocolate chip – always a winner in my book. Unreal. Of course, there is always the peanut butter or fudge or strawberry, the list goes on! Thanks also to Unique Linens for the wonderful linens, chair covers & chair ties. Gorgeous. And what table is not complete without pretty menu cards from Rose at The Invitation Lounge.

Enjoy the Angle!
