Lauren & Anthony

Ivory Tribe Feature
“We met at a friend’s birthday in 2010 but never really got to know each other until a couple of years later when we crossed paths again and decided to get a coffee. It was June 2012 when a couple of teenagers innocently fell in love, and nine years later, that all became history.
From the very beginning, our relationship was so pure and effortless. We quickly blended into one another’s lives, merged our friends and families, and from only a couple of months into the relationship; it became apparent that we would be in each other’s lives for a long time to come. It was a classic case of “when you know, you know,” and that we sure did.”
We will forever describe our wedding day as nothing but pure bliss. We were both so present the entire day and have so many special memories that we shared not only with one another but with our closest family and friends that we will cherish for years to come. If we had to pick just one moment, it will forever be the moment we saw each other as I walked down the aisle. I remember clutching onto Dad’s arm, praying I didn’t miss my step and trip over my dress. As I followed behind the bridesmaids, finally they parted, and there he was waiting for me, tears rolling down his cheek, standing tall and proud. It was the first time in nine years that I ever saw Anthony shed a tear, and to this day, I can’t believe how emotional and vulnerable he let himself be. I never in a million years would have thought he would be emotional, and whenever anyone said, “he’s going to cry!” I would say, “you obviously don’t know Anth!” But I guess they knew him a little better than I thought! It was by far the most beautiful and heartfelt moment of the entire day.”
