My second wedding of the season was that of Lauren and Austin at one of my all-time favorite venues, The Rookery. It was so refreshing to meet a couple that didn’t get caught up in all the minutia of a wedding and really focused on the big picture: getting married and having an all-out party!

The First Look in front of their home!

Lovely, textured bouquets featuring white peonies, hydrangea, craspedia (aka “billy balls”) from A New Leaf.

It POURED that afternoon, but they managed to snag a few fabulous pictures around the city!

Lauren is so gorgeous…
