In fact, Lauren first wanted a black, white and gold wedding. So when we first met on a fireworks cruise at Walt Disney World, we instantly clicked. She and my son share a birthday, she adores roller coasters, she’s a Florida State Seminole (I think I was one in another life – because although I am an IU Hoosier, I – due to many family ties, cheer for the ‘Noles during football season – much to my Notre Dame loving husband’s dismay) and, Lauren always knew she would get married at West Baden. ![]() When Lauren first called and told me she was getting married in Mecca I knew we were destined to work together. I love the attention to detail in each space from the library, to the dining room, to the spa, to each guestroom. I love the stunning architecture that sweeps stories into the sky.
