About the Bride: Leah Karen

Where do I begin?..... 

Born and raised right here in Kansas City.  I am so happy that Neal transplanted in the city that I love.  Wedding planning has been going smoothly, with much assistance from my family and friends.  It certainly helps that several of my friends are planning their own weddings and my brother-in-law is in the wedding world through his photography, so I have an endless supply of knowledge.  People who can answer any question about, DJs, cakes, invitations, dresses, etc.  What I have found to be the most interesting part is how different it is all turning out, in a good way!  As a girl I have been day-dreaming about this event for about, well, probably forever.  But I wasn't able to day-dream about the most important part, THE GROOM, until I met Neal!  Now that he completes the picture, my day-dreams are a little different.  The fantasy is a reality and the things I thought were going to be soooooo important, like the venue and the flowers and the tiny details, don't seem so important. No matter how those details turn out, as long as I get to marry Neal, they all just don't really matter.  And to be honest, my day-dreams don't even come close to the reality of how happy I am.
