Lauren and Joshua Buehlers Wedding

We met through someone who had once been an important part of Lauren’s life. Though that person has since passed away, their introduction brought us together — something we’ll always be grateful for. For a long time we were friends who loved sharing simple things: dinners out, movie nights, and walks with our dogs. Our friendship naturally deepened into a relationship built on laughter, trust, and many shared little traditions. Over the past three and a half years we’ve grown together through new experiences, supporting each other, and building a life as a team. We even started a small side business collecting sports cards, coins, and other unique finds — a hobby that’s become one of our favorite ways to spend time together. Josh proposed during a quiet, romantic dinner at Lauren’s favorite restaurant; after dessert he asked, in a moment that was perfectly simple and unforgettable. We can’t wait to celebrate our marriage with the people we love most.
