Rebecca + Anthony Step Into The Limelight | The Manor on Lake Juliana | Auburndale, FL
Five years ago, amidst the enchanting atmosphere of The Boathouse in Disney Springs, Rebecca and Anthony's love story began. Working together, they discovered a connection that would stand the test of time, leading to a proposal as magical as their first meeting.
Anthony's proposal was a moment straight out of a fairytale. He surprised Rebecca with a private tour of the safari in Animal Kingdom, where amidst the wonders of nature, he dropped to one knee and asked her to marry him. But the surprises didn't end there. Upon returning home, they were greeted by Rebecca's two best friends, who had flown in from Charlotte and Philadelphia to celebrate. And as they headed to dinner at the restaurant where they first met, they were met with a gathering of loved ones, including parents, siblings, nieces, and all of Rebecca's best friends. It was a moment of pure joy and celebration, filled with love and unforgettable memories.
What Rebecca loves most about Anthony are his patience, kindness, and compassion—a perfect complement to her own loving nature. Together, they enjoy exploring the magic of Disney and Universal parks, sharing dinner dates, and simply having fun in each other's company.
For their wedding, Rebecca and Anthony wanted nothing more than for their guests to feel comfortable, relaxed, and loved. They opted for a small, intimate celebration, choosing The Manor on Lake Juliana for its picturesque outdoor setting and laid-back atmosphere. Their wedding day outfits reflected their desire for a relaxed vibe, allowing them to feel truly themselves as they exchanged vows surrounded by loved ones.
As the evening drew to a close, Rebecca and Anthony bid farewell to their guests with a grand exit, lighting up the night sky with lanterns—a symbolic gesture of their journey together, illuminated by love and shared experiences.
In the end, Rebecca and Anthony's wedding was not just about a celebration of their love, but a testament to the joy found in simplicity, togetherness, and the magic of being surrounded by those who matter most. As they embarked on their next adventure as husband and wife, they knew that their love story was just beginning, filled with endless possibilities and the promise of a lifetime of happiness together.
