It’s always special watching friends find their person and start to plan a life together. I met Lauren in college, and we both ended up in the same city of Des Moines after graduation. We started playing tennis together a few summers ago, and slowly started to build our friendship. At the same time, Lauren and Wicitra were building on their friendship of many years…and started to date in late 2021. ;) He proposed this January in the dreamiest snowfall you can imagine, and they’ll be married this fall at Jasper Winery, in a beautiful ceremony that blends their cultures and families. I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for these two!
