We met in High School; I was a Sophomore and Katie was a Freshman. She and I were classmates for about two months before I tried to talk to her. She wasn't the most friendly little Mexican but there was just something interesting about her that made me want to learn more. So I built up the courage to attempt to talk to her again.. To my surprise she was interested in me, and we hit it off! Austin and I had a high school love, and people said we would grow out of it. Matured yes, but never really grew out of love with this man. He's seen the best in me and been with me through the worst. Through the years we have been together; although we are still young I have seen the growth in him and I. Spending the rest of my days, and long after that with the man I love; my best friend is well worth it!
Although things have not gone to plan because of COVID-19, this doesn't mean the wedding is off! As of now we are still looking for a date for the wedding. I hope to see everyone at the wedding celebration when we can finally pick a date to share with everyone!!
On April 20th 2020 Austin Hendrix and Karina Lara were no longer two; on this day they became one. In the middle of a pandemic, the love these two have for one another came through for them. In front of God and their witnesses they committed themselves to one another. Eventually we will get to celebrate with all of our family and friends! We cannot wait to see and enjoy the company of every single one of you!!
Finally we have a date and can not wait to celebrate with everyone! The wedding is going to be held at the Ramada Limited, on April 24th, 2021 where we will exchange our vows with our families and friends! Things have not gone so easy for us, with the pandemic doing on things have been a disaster. We have been waiting on the venue to open back up to choose a date, unfortunately we will not be getting the same venue. The venue is attached to a nursing home so we understand why it will not be opening again.
