Grant + Lauren

myrtle Beach,
 South Carolina

Grant and Lauren's proposal was one of the sweetest moments I have had the honor of witnessing! 
Grant and I spoke a few weeks before the "Big day" and we got it all planned out from the perfect location in Myrtle Beach to how we were going to get Lauren to turn away from him - and everything went just as planned, the weather even held out for us!

We walked along the beach, and I got to hear about how they met and what their plans were for after graduating. Then, the light hit perfectly and I gave Grant the motion and gave the cue for Lauren to turn...I can't tell you what I said because I want to keep that a secret for future proposals - but I will tell you it worked so well, that Grant and I both wondered when she would turn back around as he eagerly awaited for his soon to be Bride to turn back and see him down on one knee. 

When she turned around there was such a genuine expression of joy and excitement between the both of them - it was nothing short of magical. 

Aren't they absolutely adorable?! Don't worry, it's not the last of their story you will see! We have their formal engagement session in the spring and their wedding in 2026! 

Congrats again to Grant + Lauren!
