Winter Wedding at The Magnolia Building in Downtown Lakeland, FL

A Lakeland Love Story: Ragdah & Victor's Wedding Day

The Meeting at the Gym

As a Lakeland wedding photographer, I've seen countless love stories unfold in front of my camera lens. But there was something special about Ragdah and Victor's wedding day at The Magnolia Building in downtown Lakeland.

Theirs was a love story that began five years ago at the gym. Ragdah was a fitness enthusiast, and Victor was a regular gym-goer. They often found themselves working out side by side, and their shared love of fitness sparked a conversation that led to a coffee date.

As I looked through their engagement photos which you can take a look at here. I could see the love and happiness that emanated from them. They were the perfect match, and it was evident in every photo.

A Beautiful Bride and A Loving Groom

On the morning of their wedding day, I arrived at Ragdah's childhood home in Brandon to capture her getting ready. She was surrounded by her mother and sisters, and the room was filled with laughter and excitement.

Ragdah looked stunning in her custom-made dress, which she had ordered from Etsy. The delicate lace a perfectly complemented her natural beauty, and I could see the joy in her eyes as she twirled in front of the mirror.As a Lakeland wedding photographer, I have photographed many weddings, but Ragdah and Victor's wedding was truly special. The couple's love story was one that I was honored to capture. From the moment I arrived, I felt like a part of the family.

I was able to capture the couple's love and connection in every photograph, from the first look to the final dance. I especially loved the candid shots that captured the couple's joy and happiness. It was a delight to work with such a wonderful couple who were so in love and to capture their special day in photographs that they will cherish for a lifetime.
