DAY OF

Our Wedding

THE JIST

Lauren and Mark met in August, 2018 while at work. They kept it professional for about a year until Lauren invited Mark out for drinks at a local restaurant. Margaritas are always a good idea. Mark proposed June 3 (their dating anniversary) at a park in downtown Columbus. Surrounded by their guardian angels and immediate family, the two shared personal vows with one another on March 13, 2022. It was a perfect Sunday brunch. The only thing missing? All of you! They can't wait to celebrate their love with you all on Friday, October 21st, 2022.
