Lauren & Will's Wedding at the Marin Art & Garden Center

Lauren and Will started out as friends, and despite a first hangout that ended with a piggy back ride gone wrong (hello gash to the forehead and emergency room!), their friendship grew as they worked through three challenging years in their pediatric residencies in Philadelphia. It was Philly where Will proposed to Lauren, on a blustery snowy January day. Both are now pediatricians in San Francisco and are happy to be in the Bay Area where they have a lot of friends and family. But they did bring a little bit of Philly to their wedding; check out the LOVE sign at their reception!

This past spring they were married at St. Anselm Catholic Church in Marin County, California, and celebrated their marriage at the lush greenery and rose garden of the Marin Art and Garden Center. They also incorporated some of Will's family's Jewish faith with the breaking of the glass at the end of their ceremony, and then later dancing a lively hora. These two had so much joy and laughter at their wedding, which I loved photographing!
