From Alea Lovely… The bride and groom are two Kansas City locals who met at work, where they both are cancer researchers. The wedding consisted of their close family and friends in the historic Pilgrim Chapel in Kansas City, Missouri. Afterwards they had a very decorated, upbeat party at a popular restaurant, Californos, in the heart of Westport, a neighborhood in Kansas City. A very neat part of the day was that the groom proposed to the bride without an initial ring (with plans to pick one), out but the bride hadn’t found one she liked so she wore a band instead until they found the perfect ring.Once they found it later, she had decided that she would not wear the diamond ring until the wedding day and was adamant about not letting anyone see it until the unveiling at the ceremony. It was a wonderful twist on a tradition.
