Lara+Mike // Fearrington Wedding

When Lara and I met in person for the first time at her wedding, we instantly clicked, and I instantly loved her. She has a larger-than-life personality… big smile, big laugh, big hair… and she is THE BEST. She is hilarious and has a phenomenal sense of humor and we kept each other highly amused throughout the day. Right before she went up to Mike at their first look, I told her that she could say anything to him: tell him to turn around, go up and hug him, tap him on the shoulder, etc. Whatever she felt like doing. She thought about this for about 0.5 seconds and then said, “I know what I’ll do. You know that Cards Against Humanity card that says, “Mr. Clean, right behind you?” I’ll say that.” And she did. And they both burst out laughing. And it was our first (and possibly last, but I hope not) first look that Cards Against Humanity and/or Mr. Clean, and it was perfect.

Lara and Mike have a really genuine connection and keep each other laughing and giggling and they’re just PRECIOUS. They wanted pictures by the cows. We asked, “What’s your favorite thing about cows?” to which they both looked at each other and went, “MOOOOOO” at exactly the same time. I don’t even know. I just know they’re the best. Because of their love for New Orleans, this wedding had a Second Line (brought to you by Bulltown Strutters who were MAGIC) and a ton of beads (the beads I wore for most of the night were green and shaped like beer mugs). Lara sported a parasol that she was pretty thrilled with. The weather was perfect and the food was delicious and there was even a girl named Carolyn from Pittsburgh who was present. You just can’t beat it. Laissez les bons temps rouler.
