Ford instantly recognized Matthew&#8217;s love interest as his girlfriend&#8217;s sorority sister and quickly organized a get-together for the friends. Lauren and Matt talked for hours, discussing everything under the sun and quickly realizing how much they had in common. Lauren fell in love with Matthew&#8217;s honesty and ability to make her laugh, while Matthew loved Lauren&#8217;s zeal for life and ambition.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>After the couple graduated from The University of Oklahoma, Matthew proposed to Lauren on a beach in Malibu, CA. Matthew was waiting for Lauren in a blue button-down, barefoot with the biggest smile on his face. As he proposed, dolphins playfully jumped in and out of the water; it was &#8220;picture perfect.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Matthew and Lauren said I do on a sunny day on April 17, 2021, at&nbsp;<a class=\"x_editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/vendor\/the-carriage-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Carriage House<\/a>, a rustic-chic venue in the&nbsp;historic small town of Montgomery, TX. The&nbsp;sweet wedding&nbsp;had a vibrant color palette of navy, burgundy and blush that paired nicely with the venue&#8217;s pops of red. After a light and bright ceremony in the&nbsp;venue&#8217;s charming chapel, the couple celebrated with a joy-filled reception in the 5,000 square foot reception space.<\/p>\n<p>One of the couple&#8217;s favorite moments of the evening was the last dance. &#8220;It was the perfect way to end the night and just take it all in by ourselves before we made our grand exit,&#8221; says Lauren.&nbsp;When the wedding day came to an end, the newlyweds jetted to Hawaii for a long-awaited honeymoon.<\/p>\n<p>Keep scrolling to see this sweet red, blush and burgundy wedding at The Carriage House.
