JASON+LAUREN : LORD THOMPSON MANOR WEDDING : PART TWO
Here is the second part of Lauren and Jason’s beautiful wedding day. (click here to see the first part.) Their wedding was held at Lord Thompson Manor and was just lovely! Every detail was perfection, but what really stood out to me was Jason and Lauren’s personalities. They are one of the most fun and truly happy couples. Lauren and Jason, you’re the best! Thank you for welcoming us like old friends and allowing us to capture your love. And your friends. And your family. And everything in between! Your wedding was amazing and we’re honored to be a small part of the day you married your best friend.

Any advice for future bride/grooms?
Be true to yourself and trust your gut.
One of the best compliments I received was that my wedding was “the nicest informal, formal wedding” they had been to. Jason and I wanted a classic wedding, but we also have really kooky personalities. I’m glad our wedding was beautiful and formal, but that people still had fun and could see our crazy personalities shining through.
What was your favorite detail?
I feel like there were so many!
Although not a small detail, I loved my dress and am so happy I picked it. I always told people that “the dress is my personality, not my daily style.” I felt great in it.
Besides that, I really loved our programs. I love photography and wanted to include pictures of Jason and myself in an interesting way, so we created programs with a unique picture on the cover. Each guest’s program had a different shot of Jason, myself, or us together. It took a long time to assemble the programs, which we did the WEEK BEFORE the wedding, but I am SO glad we did it.
Funniest memory from your wedding day?
For me, the funniest memory is of the cake cutting. Jason and I cut the cake with the provided knife, and got the cake to the plate with the matching server. Then we realized that’s all we had; there was no forks or other standard utensils. There was a funny moment while we looked around with no idea of what to do now. Then I picked up the server and used that to feed Jason the cake, and he did the same for me.
