Taylor + Lauren = Married

Taylor and Lauren were married on September 19, 2009 at the Oak Tree Country Club in Edmond, Oklahoma. (Yes, I know, better late than never) They were the recipients of the B.C. Clark “Pray for Rain” promotion. “If it rains or snows an inch or more on your wedding day, B.C. Clark will refund you the price of your ring up to $5,000 dollars.” – B.C. Clark Luckily for them, it did rain an inch in the morning, but by the afternoon it turned out to be a beautiful day!
