Matron of Honor
Lauren met Tiffany while she and her husband, Hardin, were stationed in Germany with the Army. They quickly became best friends, maybe at a terrifying rate to Hardin and Adam. Tiffany and Hardin moved to Augusta on military orders shortly after Lauren moved. Their friendship continued to grow and deepen during the 9 months they had together in Augusta, even more so with being a short 10 minute drive to each other. The military has brought them close together again in the midwest and they live less than 3 hours away from each other!
