CS Lewis once said concerning today's obsession with being 'grown up': "When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

When I first met Lauren at Mint Springs Farm in the bridal suite I witnessed a grown up with a child-like excitement for what was coming next. She made no apologies for her excitement. She was absolutely full of life and came across as such a genuine person through and through. Then I met Marcelo - I held my hand out to shake his hand and he stretched out his arms and said "Oh come on...we can hug!" These 2 people were made for each other. Their chemistry was undeniable and it was touching to see. They were so easygoing and an absolute joy to work with.
