Our Wedding

How They Met

<p>Lauren was at the time working with one of Bryan’s childhood friends. While working Bryan just happened to drive by. He asked his friend about her and kept his eye on her for a few months. After some time Bryan got a job at the same place. The two worked together for a few months, through those few months Bryan would constantly ask for her number or to go out for a drink. Finally the two went out after work with some friends and instantly knew they were meant for each other. Bryan and Lauren began spending every day at work and most days after work laughing and enjoying each others company. Bryan and Lauren quickly fell in love and became each others best friends. From there the two learned to lean on each other and trust that the other would be there every day. We are so lucky to have met when we did and excited to start our journey together.</p>

Our Story

After Kayla and I met, she became my go to for anything. Calls just to talk, the random drop ins on her and the babies. I love that she’s part of my life, and some days the best part of my day when she calls to tell how her baby pooped on her.

My ride or die literally. No matter where or when, Liv is down for anything; road trips, pack the bags and leave for a few days, or even to meet up at three am and vent. There has never been a dull moment. Liv is the most supportive, kindest, funniest sister I couldn’t live without.

Brittany is one of those friends that I never had to worry about. Whether we haven’t seen each other in a year or a week, she treats you with respect and will always leave a smile on my face. She has most contagious laugh that I love sharing with her. She will no doubt be the life of the party.

I don’t think there is enough room to write about the relationship Madison (jewell to me) have. Honestly would not have made it though college without her. Most things we did cannot be spoken of but she was there every step of the way. Four years of softball and one AA class later I cannot wait to have her by my side.

Bri and I of course had our typical short stop and second base relationship on the field. Off the field we remained just as close being roommates, waking up early to get some Starbucks and just listen. I’ve never met a more sarcastic, funny second basemen. While She’s living in cali we still find time to keep up our truly amazing friendship. I really don’t think I have a nicer friend that hypes me up the way bri does. She a baddie can’t wait to have her special appearance all the way from across the country just for me.

Madison is one of the most outgoing people I know. Always happy to help, and doing the most for the people she loves. She once cleaned my house while Bry and I were gone on vacation just for fun. I mean you can’t beat that. Madison is going to do big things and I can’t wait to call her my sister

I have never had a sister before, and neither has Tori. So of course I’ve never taken her clothes without asking or used her favorite eye liner but she gave me the chance to build a relationship I never thought I would have. She somehow married my brother and I’m so grateful she has. Honestly Tori has the wisdom of a big sister and when I need it she’s there.  So grateful I finally have a big sister to look up to.
