Laura + Collin
Stealing a couple of tidbits from my couple questionnaire because these two make me so happy. What a laid-back, warm, love-filled day this was! Truly so blessed to get to be a small part of such a wonderful couple’s story!
How did you two meet? : Collin and I met on a blind date, which I guess you don’t hear about as much anymore. My sister, Margaret, and Collin’s best friend, Joe worked together and shared an office. They got to talking and realized that Collin and I might be a good fit. We met up in Columbia and had dinner and walked around the park nearby. That was almost two years ago, and we have talked every day since. When we first started dating, he lived in Mexico, MO and I lived in St. Charles. So it was a lot of phone calls, skype dates, and handwritten letters to each other.
