After that, you might be planning a first look of your own, especially when you see him still choke up as she walked down the aisle.

Ryan and Lauren said their vows at St. Boniface church, a historic Catholic Church, There was lovely architecture and details like arches and paintings. Their decor complimented the grand presence of the church with simplicity and rich color. Afterward, the party continued at the American Legion where they added thoughtful touches to make the day their own. Ryan and Lauren’s choice for a family-style head table brought warmth and connection to their day while also styling the reception beautifully.

They invited the ones they love most into their big day. For instance, the invitations were designed by their cousin. In addition, they also had a creative display honoring family members who have passed away at their reception. As a result, their family was a key component of their celebration and they made space to laugh and enjoy.
