Chesapeake Bay Beach Club Destination Wedding | Lauren & Matt

September 24, 2018

Lauren and Matt came all the way from Arizona for their Chesapeake Bay Beach Club destination wedding. Their guests traveled from all over the country to celebrate with these two. I’m not sure we’ve ever seen the Beach house ballroom full of so much laughter before! Matt and Lauren have an amazing connection and their happiness is contagious, they seem to always be laughing with one another. They met through work quite a few years ago and as fate would have it they both ended up getting transferred to the Arizona office coincidentally. Sometimes the universe helps to nudge two people in the right direction unbeknownst to them!

Lauren’s version of the proposal story: We had been together for about 2 and a half years. We went to Breckenridge, CO for a ski trip, which Lauren has done for 9 years with her father. We always go out to dinner, just the two of us, one night of the week. It started off as a rough day, because Lauren woke up and could not find her inhaler. In Colorado, the exercise induced asthma combined with the elevation, she could not get comfortable. We ended up having to drive 30 minutes away to get a new one.. but we made a small adventure out of it, driving around and checking out the outlets. Later that night, while Lauren was showering, Matt was out on the deck with her father asking the big question. He tried to do it earlier that week on the chair lift when they went off together, but another skier sat right between them, making that an awkward conversation. So we left for dinner and as soon as we go to the restaurant, we walked in on their patio (covered in snow) but it had a gorgeous view of main street and the mountains in the background. Matt, at that point, knew he had to do it there. During dinner, Lauren had no idea anything was up- Matt was acting normal. Once the sun started to go down, Matt got a little hyper about getting a picture before dark and went over to ask the waitress to take our photo then we would come back in to pay. Little strange, but I didn’t think into it. The waitress took a few photos and then Lauren hears Matt say “Babe?” immediately she got emotion and knew what was happening. The waitress got photos of the entire thing and then left to give us a moment and she brought back champagne. We sat on the patio in the cold, with champagne, calling our parents, sisters and Lauren’s best friend Cortnie. They walked back to the lodge, stopped at the bar for one drink together to celebrate, then met Lauren’s Dad and Stepmom for some champagne in the room.
