Sunshine and blue skies, happy tears and big smiles, young love and best friends-- Lauren and Austin's wedding consisted of all of these things, and more. These high school sweethearts may have had one of the hottest wedding days of 2018, but they smiled through the heat and danced as though they didn't even notice. :) From their precious first look, where both of them may have shed a tear (or two), to the ceremony surrounded by friends and family who cheered them on, and finally to the reception with more than one fun dance routine, this day was full of sweet memories for these two to hold onto forever.

One thing that stood out to me at Lauren and Austin's wedding was the sense that everyone present was a part of their family. The bridesmaids were more like a sisterhood around Lauren, and the groomsmen, when not making us laugh, were always there to help, as a good brother should be-- even carrying Lauren's veil so it wouldn't drag the ground in between pictures. :) Even the guests seemed right at home, taking it all in with happy faces at the ceremony, and filling the dance floor at the reception. You can tell there are many people who love and support this sweet couple!

Thanks so much, Lauren and Austin, for letting us be a part of your special day!
