They danced, laughed, ate good food and sang soccer chance and it truly was a celebration to remember! Brian + Lauren, while surrounded by their family and friends, rung in the New Year in style, sharing a NYE kiss for the first time as husband and wife. One thing that was so evident throughout the wedding day – was Brian and Lauren come from incredibly close knit families…and on that day – two amazing families celebrated not as separate families, but as a new, even bigger, family! It was truly beautiful!
Lauren + Brian share a common passion … soccer. They both coach youth soccer and met during a coaching course in Denver in June of 2009. It did not take long before their relationship began and they have not looked back since! Lauren + Brian truly are one of the most caring and laid couples that I have had the joy of working with. The whole day had a relaxed and cheerful feel and that is what you want on your wedding day!
It was a brisk (freezing) sunny day in Colorado Springs and with a light dusting of snow the day before and the gorgeous soft sunlight that gives Colorado the nickname, the “Sunshine State!” – it was truly a beautiful and chilly day!
After a beautiful ceremony at Grace + St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church , the rest of the evening was spent popping, clinking, dancing and cheering to one of the sweetest and joyful couples in the world at that NYE 2016 celebration!
Lauren + Brian – thank you. Thank you for welcoming me to come and celebrate with you and your families. I am thrilled to shre a peek at this sparkly NYE wedding!
Lauren looked STUNNING in her sparkly Maggie Sottero gown! It looked like it was made for her NYE wedding!
