Our love story

OPENING SCENE: Academy Awards party 2002. Lauren attending UCLA. Lance living in LA.
PLOT: Amazing year with "THE ONE". She graduates & moves away for law school.
CONFLICT: Long distance & his career, prove too much. Heartbroken, they remain good friends.
RESOLUTION: A chance encounter, love rekindled. Refusing to lose her again, he packs up his Honda & finds a new job. Starts a life with the girl he loves. 8 years strong, he proposes & she accepts.
FINALE: A beautiful life together ...

Three important details about our ultimate wedding.

The most important aspect of our wedding would be to create a warm and intimate affair for our guests. We would choose a coastal locale reminiscent of the cliff-side villas that we encountered in our memorable travels along the Amalfi Coast in Italy. The decor would consist of sun-drenched linen; white, romantic floral arrangements; and an elegant, yet understated table setting. A gourmet spread and an array of wonderful Italian wines would be a must.

Our ultimate dream home.

We adore the Mid-Century modern look of homes designed by Joseph Eichler. Our dream home would have sleek lines and walls of windows that would meld seamlessly into a surrounding zen-like landscape.

We love to cook and entertain so an open chef's kitchen with a wine cellar and professional appliances would be a must.

Modern furniture with classic style really speaks to us. The color palates and great design options offered by Crate and Barrel would make for a warm and sophisticated home.
