What can I say, besides that Calvin and Davina are simply the most delightful people, and this was such a clever and creative wedding! They based the entire theme around the Disney movie UP, and they tied it together with some amazing details throughout the ceremony and reception. Davina has an exquisite sense of style, and you can see it in every detail of their beautiful day.
These two are the ideal couple – and their choice of UP made their romance that much more evident. They even created a nickname for themselves and their big day – Calvina! Davina has a beautiful voice, and she surprised Calvin by singing to him at the reception – the combination of her voice and the look on his face was truly priceless. They both come from different cultures, and throughout the day, they had special tributes to both families. It was heartwarming to see how important their cultures and families are to them. They perfectly honored family, tradition, and their love for each other as they brought it all together in their wedding.
Their families were some of the kindest people I have ever met. I was so happy to spend two days getting to know them, and I loved every minute of it. They definitely have deep connections to their heritage, and it was such a joy to get to learn and spend time with them.
You can see their full Disney engagement shoot here. And their highlight on the Disney Wedding Blog as well.
Thank you, Calvin and Davina, for letting me be a part of your beautiful Disneyland UP inspired wedding!
What a beautiful bride!
Absolutely loved the flowers!
The Groom and Groomsmen had the Grape Soda Pins – this was an UP inspired detail that was absolutely adorable.
The ceremony took place in the always beautiful Rose Court Garden.
The UP balloons were decorating the ceremony just perfectly!
Calvin and Davina love Minnie and Mickey, and they made a special appearance!
Another adorable UP detail – the “Paradise Falls” reception table.
