Our Wedding

Our story starts in high school when Steven saw Lauren at a football game, and as one high schooler does, went on twitter to ask for her number. So began a saga of school dances, soccer games &amp; tennis matches, and awkward prom photos. Next came the legendary college years at the University of Dayton where we consumed way too many Stev-o mixers and $2 wells. Fast-forward to post-grad life, we got our first apartment in downtown Cleveland, where we found our favorite restaurants, late night bars, and early morning coffee shops. After two years, we decided the brutal winters were too much and it was time to move south. What started as a “we’ll see how this goes” turned into a “we’re never leaving,” and soon enough, we bought our first house in NC along with our dog, Roo.&nbsp; And here we are, ready to say "I do" and start the next chapter of this crazy journey. Thanks for being here to celebrate with us!
