A Margaritaville Resort Orlando wedding is every bit as vibrant, tropical, and joy-filled as it sounds — and Amy and Randy’s day was no exception. Their celebration was layered with meaning, close family ties, quiet tears, big laughter, and the kind of heartfelt promises that come when you marry your very best friend.

Amy’s graceful look came together beautifully thanks to Kristy Artistry Design Team. Her elegant hairstyle and radiant makeup fit perfectly with the sunshine and tropical setting of Margaritaville Resort.

A Disney Touch and a Bit of Tradition

Amy and Randy share a long history of loving Disney, so of course, they had to include a small nod to it — their Mickey ear hats made the perfect playful touch! (You can even check out their Disney’s Polynesian Resort engagement session here).

As a Jewish couple, Amy and Randy also included so many beautiful pieces of Jewish tradition in their Margaritaville Resort Orlando wedding. Randy wore a yarmulke (kippah), as did many of the other men during the ceremony, which made for such meaningful detail photos.

His suit came from Tweed’s Suit Shop and fit him perfectly for the occasion.

Planning was seamlessly handled by my friend Ashley from Golden Hour Planning (Golden Hour Events) — she kept the day moving smoothly and everyone relaxed in a friendly yet organized way! I can’t wait to work with her again!

Randy’s brother David stood by his side as his Best Man – a role that felt more like a reflection of lifelong friendship than formality.

A Sweet First Look & Graceful Details

Their first look was one of the sweetest I’ve seen. When Randy turned around, he literally said, “WOAH!” — and Amy’s face absolutely lit up with joy!

Her long train and veil made for such graceful movement in photos — every spin looked like something from a dream. Her dress came from The Bridal Gallery of Orlando and couldn’t have been more perfect for her.

A Tropical Paradise at Margaritaville Resort Orlando

A Margaritaville Resort Orlando wedding offers such a unique blend of tropical color and modern elegance. From the palm-lined walkways to the vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere, it’s truly a tropical oasis in the heart of Central Florida.

The staff — including Tamra from Margaritaville — were incredible to work with and made everything feel effortless.

I also had the joy of working alongside Brian and his wife Kiara from BR Focus Films (BR Focus Films), one of my favorite videographers. (Stay tuned — we’ve got a big announcement coming soon about a brand-new photo and video package!)

The Signing of the Ketubah

Before the ceremony began, Amy and Randy gathered with their closest family and friends for the signing of the Ketubah — the Jewish marriage contract. It was such a heartfelt and meaningful moment, filled with quiet laughter and tender glances as the rabbi read the words aloud and the witnesses signed.

These in-between moments, the ones that happen quietly before the big celebration begins, are often some of my favorite to photograph.

The Ketubah represents the sacred promises they were about to make under the Huppah — love, honor, and commitment — and it was beautiful to see Amy and Randy supporting one another so gracefully through it.

The Ceremony Under the Huppah at Margaritaville Resort Orlando

Just before the ceremony, the rabbi led the signing of the Ketubah, the Jewish marriage contract, witnessed by close friends and family. The love and tenderness between Amy and Randy during this quiet moment were unforgettable.

The ceremony itself took place under a stunning floral Huppah arranged by Brides N Blooms Designs. The flowers framed the couple beautifully as they exchanged vows, laughed through a gust of wind that briefly lifted a corner of the Huppah, and shared a few heartfelt tears.

The moment Randy broke the glass — followed by a resounding “Mazel Tov!” — was pure joy!

Amy’s impromptu spin down the aisle right after the kiss was one of my favorite radiant moments of the day.

As the sun set, we slipped away for a few more portraits before heading into the ballroom.

A Margaritaville Resort Orlando Wedding Reception

One of the amazing perks of a Margaritaville Resort Orlando wedding is the size and versatility of the ballroom — it easily accommodated their nearly 200 guests while still feeling elegant and comfortable.

The couple’s first dance was heartfelt and romantic, followed by a blended parent dance that included all the special people in their lives — a touching reflection of just how family-centered their day truly was.

*

I actually love the toasts, as close family or friends share about the couple. It’s one of my favorite parts of the day where I feel like I get to know the “behind the scenes” version of them!

Randy & Amy’s cake and desserts were delicious and made by The Cookie Jar!

And then came the Hora! There’s nothing quite like it — the bride and groom lifted high in chairs, music playing, everyone cheering. I loved that Amy and Randy’s parents were lifted too — a beautiful nod to generations of love and joy.

Live music from The Bay Kings Band kept the energy high all night, and Amy and her Matron of Honor definitely made the most of it!

Their private last dance and grand exit were the perfect ending to such a meaningful, joy-filled day.
