Blue Heron Wedding : Lauren & Ryan

What started out as strangers, they quickly became fast friends as they cheered on the Irish in Florida for the BCS National Championship game. Like most Notre Dame fans, Lauren & Ryan leaped at the chance to heading to warmer weather celebrate their beloved Alma Mater fight for their championship title. The season was on an amazing 12-0 winning streak and the championship held promise for the team and their fans. Even though Notre Dame didn’t win the game, two people’s lives would be changed forever.

Lauren & Ryan’s passion doesn’t stop at their love of the Irish, it expands in a manner in which everyone around them feels loved, accepted, and joyful. Their energy and devotion to what they do is a testament to why they work so well together as a couple. Listening to stories throughout their wedding day, it was very clear to me that there was nothing standing in there way of always seeing the positive in every situation and showing those around them a selfless love that most dream to have as a characteristic.

The look on his face when he finally turned around to see his bride… PRICELESS!!!

Poppies by Polly is so amazing at what she does. I just love her set up for their centerpieces. Pink roses, hydrangeas, tulips… Just breathtaking.

I mean, come on, tell me C’est La Vie Cakes doesn’t just make you want to steal a piece of cake.
