Lara and Andy

What do you get when you put two St. Louis transplants together? Well sometimes you get love sparks, in the case of Lara and Andy.

Life is funny in the way that sometimes, you have to leave home to find where you really belong. I think, after hearing Lara and Andy’s story, that is the case with these two. They love each other so deeply, and being around them, you can just tell. They are so sweet with each other. They genuinely like each other and are best friends.

Their wedding day really reflected that, especially their ceremony. A good friend was the officiant, they wrote their own vows to each other, and friends of theirs wrote a song for them and performed it as Lara walked down the aisle! There was no lack of love during the event; their friends and family rallied around them. I could talk all day about their details, but sometimes the photos take care of those details and the real sticking points of a wedding are in the nuance of the emotion, and that was the case here. So enjoy the photos – the details were amazing, too – and help me wish a heartfelt congratulations to Lara and Andy!
