As soon as I read about today’s featured bride Lauren’s journey to down the altar I immediately fell in love with her wedding even more and I can’t wait for you guys to read about her special day with her groom Terry. This upbeat gold Christian barn wedding photographed beautifully by Megan Hobbs Photography showcases everything weddings are all about and that’s love, family, and happiness. You can instantly tell by viewing the first couple of photos in the editorial how much fun these two are and it’s quite contagious. One special aspect of this wedding the photographer explains more in detail below is the bride’s gorgeous wedding dress which showcases something very near and dear to her heart her father. She decided to honor her late dad in such a special way by sewing a heart on her wedding dress from the fabric from one of his old T-shirts. This wedding is incredible sweet full of so much love and was designed with such incredible attention to detail it’s hard not to want to pin every image.
Special words from the photographer Megan Hobbs Photography
When Lauren went to go try on dresses, the one she ended up choosing was nothing like what she had originally wanted. She wanted a straight lace dress with short sleeves and the back cut out. She picked a dress that she was just trying on for the fun of it and ended up falling head over heels in love with it.
Lauren’s dad passed away when she was in 3rd grade. When Terry asked Lauren to marry him, he gave her a ring that had so much sentimental value to her. The diamond in her ring is from the diamond that her dad gave her mom when they got engaged. She wanted to add one more thing to incorporate her dad in her big day, so she topped off her dress with a heart sewed underneath it from a T-shirt that she remembered her dad wearing a lot when she was younger; It was perfect! There’s no doubt that Lauren’s dad was with her and helped give her away at her wedding. Her wedding day was everything she ever dreamed of and was the best days of her life.
