04 Mar Tavares Pavilion on the Lake | Marissa & Brandon
He’s a professional alligator hunter, she’s a Make A Wish Foundation Coordinator, but Marissa and Brandon’s love is simply a match made in heaven. Marissa has always wanted to work for the Make A Wish Foundation. Her first interview out of college, she got the job so she and Brandon packed up from FSU and moved to Orlando.
Four years later, they found themselves picking out wedding invitations with Wedding Paper Divas to plan the perfect day, with a little help from Jaclyn and her team at At Last Weddings + Event Design… And their Tavares Pavilion on the Lake Wedding was a perfect day!
Tavares Pavilion on the Lake was the perfect backdrop for Marissa and Brandon’s wedding day. The weather was absolutely gorgeous! Of course the day started off with an alligator perusing around the grounds — he wanted to join in the festivities, I’m sure. There were more sweet, emotional moments than ever captured throughout the sunshine filled day. As they walked down the isle to Dan + Shay‘s new hit tune “From the Ground Up” I couldn’t help but feel so grateful that they chose me as their photographer. The hugest thank you to Big City Catering for the introductions!
Thank you for including me in your Tavares Pavilion on the Lake Wedding day and engagement photo memories! I look forward to keeping in touch and seeing where life’s adventures take the two of you love birds.

You and Tina journeyed through the day along with us; never outside the moment, but right in the middle of it! In the midst of all those emotions, you captured it all! You truly are a blessing and a gift, and now you are also family! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
