“A Labor and Delivery nurse actually set us up,” laughs Lauren Barry. “Todd and I were introduced when I was a Resident. I am an OBGYN and Todd is an Anesthesiologist. She got it right; we are a perfect match!”
Todd Versteegh and his bride envisioned a romantic church wedding, followed by a magnificent lakeside reception in the Town of Livingston. As the bride walked down the aisle, she clutched a lovely bouquet of succulents, peonies and hydrangeas. Pinned to the flowers was a locket hugging a photograph of her late father. “I borrowed my cousin’s locket and we put my dad’s picture inside. It was a special combination: my something borrowed and my dad.”
Barry and her mother planned the perfect evening. She smiles, “I felt like our wedding was such a celebration of us. My mom was just so excited and happy for us and she made it fun.” After slipping into cowboy boots, the bride and groom enjoyed dancing beneath a gorgeous tent and enjoying sweets from the ice cream bar. The newlyweds posed for a photograph with their three beloved dogs, then bid farewell in their grand getaway, a vintage Rolls Royce.
