Real Weddings
Lauren and Ben in Washington, DC
One Boston-based bride returns to her DC roots by hosting a sweet, simple, and elegant wedding at her family home.
The couple performed their first dance to the Lovin' Spoonful's "Darling Be Home Soon," and everyone danced into the wee hours to tunes spun by The Elegant DJ. "I have a great memory of watching three of my high-school friends dancing to Beyoncé's 'Single Ladies,'" Lauren says. "We had to kick people out of the house at 2:30 in the morning!" Guests were given toile bags filled with Jordan almonds, a Greek tradition, as favors.
